US Vice President Kamala Harris recently expressed her readiness to use a firearm if someone breaks into her home, joking, “If somebody breaks into my house, they’re getting shot,” during a livestreamed event with Oprah Winfrey in Michigan.

While discussing her gun ownership, Harris emphasized her support for banning assault weapons, describing them as “tools of war” that shouldn’t be on the streets. She noted that her stance on guns has drawn scrutiny from opponents, especially as she has shifted her views leading up to the November election.

During the event, Harris reaffirmed her commitment to the Second Amendment but called for stricter gun laws, citing the issue of school shootings. She described it as “bone-chilling” for children to have to practice for such emergencies, referencing a recent tragic school shooting in Georgia.
