    | Presidential candidate Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., outlined more of her plans to combat gun violence during a campaign event in Nashua, N.H., on Wednesday.
 
 Reiterating her past promise on taking executive action on guns if Congress fails to pass more gun control bills within 100 days, Harris said because "assault weapons are designed to kill a lot of people in a very short period of time," she will issue an executive order to ban the importation of military-style rifles.

    | Pure political posturing. Even if one accepts the argument that the executive branch as the authority to ban the import of products, by far the most popular "assault weapons" are designed and manufactured in the United States. 
 Therefore, this gambit is a spurious attempt to appear to her base that she is "doing something about gun violence".

                      | As I have stood in the crosshairs of those who target Second Amendment freedoms, I've realized that firearms are not the only issue. No, it's much, much bigger than that. I've come to understand that a cultural war is raging across our land, in which, with Orwellian fervor, certain acceptable thoughts and speech are mandated.  — Charlton Heston |  |  |
