We reported not long ago about how Vice President Kamala Harris would be one of the most anti-gun presidential candidates of our time if President Joe Biden should bow out and she somehow secure the nomination. Well, she has secured the nomination following a five-day virtual roll call vote. Now, the Democrat presidential hopeful has named a running mate that, as vice president, would be an equally big catastrophe for the Second Amendment.

On Tuesday, Harris named Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate.

“I am proud to announce that I’ve asked @Tim_Walz to be my running mate,” Harris posted on X. “As a governor, a coach, a teacher and a veteran, he’s delivered for working families like his. It’s great to have him on the team. Now let’s get to work.”

There’s no doubt that Walz is as much of a proponent of restrictive gun control schemes as is his possible future boss. In fact, the National Rifle Association immediately released a statement about the selection, detailing Walz’s change of face after he was elected governor.

“Tim Walz is a political chameleon—changing his positions to further his own personal agenda,” said Randy Kozuch, chairman of the NRA Political Victory Fund (NRA-PVF). “In Congress, Walz purported to be a friend of gun owners to receive their support in his rural Minnesota district. Once he had his eyes set on other offices, he sold out law-abiding Minnesotans and promoted a radical gun control agenda that emboldened criminals and left everyday citizens defenseless.”

Back in 2009, Walz was one of 65 Democrat Congressmen who signed a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder opposing a ban on so-called “assault weapons.” By 2017, however, Walz had already embraced the Democrat Party line of trying to ban anything possible, and restricting ownership of anything else.

Now the potential next vice president is in favor of a ban on common semi-automatic firearms owned by millions of Americans, so-called “universal” background checks that would include everyone but criminals and so-called “red-flag” laws that can be used to violate lawful gun owners’ right to due process.

In the end, NRA’s Kozuch said that because of Walz’s anti-gun advocacy, he is not fit for the job of vice president.

“Kamala Harris and Tim Walz cannot be trusted to defend freedom and our Constitutional rights,” he said.

If Kozuch’s warning wasn’t strong enough, leave it up to the gun-banners to get the truth out—whether Harris and Walz wish they had or not.

 “Governor Walz signed a sweeping package of gun safety bills into law just last year, so it’s no surprise that Vice President Harris, who helped lead the strongest gun safety White House in history, picked him as her running mate,” said John Feinblatt, president of so-called Everytown For Gun Safety. “This election is a life-or-death moment for the clear majority of Americans who are demanding to live free from gun violence. Everytown will go all out to help Vice President Harris and Governor Walz defeat Trump and Vance, whose ‘guns everywhere’ agenda is a dream come true for extremists and criminals.”

Angela Ferrell-Zabala, executive director of Moms Demand Action also gushed over the selection of Walz to be Harris’s running mate.

“Kamala Harris has spent her entire public service career making communities safer, and with Governor Walz as her running mate, she has a partner who shares this fundamental commitment,” Ferrell-Zabala said. “While the Trump-Vance ticket represents danger and extremism, Harris and Walz stand for the future we all deserve. From now until November, we’ll harness the power of our 11 million-strong movement to elect the leaders who will actually fight for a safer America.”
