The alarming post was thrashed online, with commenters roasting the Biden-Harris White House for hoping to destroy the Second Amendment.
One X user pointed out the irony that Harris’ running mate Tim Walz drove tens of thousands of his constituents to buy “assault rifles” in response to the deadly BLM riots of 2020 that destroyed major Minnesota cities under his watch.
Ironically as Tim Walz cries about banning "assault weapons" you know what sold millions of ARs to first time buyers over the last few years? Them watching Minneapolis burn and realizing the idea the state would protect them was a sham. https://t.co/fIT3bVWnfF
