ALBAWABA - Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential candidate for the 2024 elections, sparked a wide-range debate online after confirming she owned a gun and that she used it before.
The current Vice President of the US was asked by the TV presenter of the 60 Minutes show if she is "a gun owner?", Kamala responded that this was not the first time she talked about it and admitted to having a gun in her house.
CBS interviewer asked Harris: "What kind of guns do you have and when and why did you get it?" She added: "I have a Glock, and I've had it for quite some time." Kamala justified owning a gun because her background was in law enforcement.
After that, Kamala also confirmed that she had fired it then she started to laugh and added she only used it at a shooting range.
Despite that Kamala said to only use it at a shooting range, some people online were upset, while others took the statement to a meme level and posted mocking photos and videos depicting Harris either using it or comparing her to other officials or celebrities.
A person wrote: "I guarantee you Kamala Harris knows more about guns than Donald Trump. Including having fired one."
Another online user commented: "If you look at her eyes when she says "at a shooting range", it's clear she's lying..." Meanwhile, one said: "She was never in LE. She was a lawyer in the legal system but never a cop that had to carry a gun."
