In his latest attempt to disguise his immeasurable leftism, California Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom insisted that he was “not anti-gun at all” after being given a gun by former Navy SEAL Shawn Ryan on the veteran’s podcast. California Democrat governor Gavin Newsom insisted that he was “not anti-gun at all.”
Ryan handed Newsom a “California-compliant” Sig Sauer P365 X-Macro pistol, prompting Newsom to respond, “The last thing people would expect is that I respect this gift.”
“I’m not anti-gun at all,” Newsom protested. “I’m for just some gun-safe, common sense. I’m challenged by large capacity magazine clips in urban centers, weapons of war, sometimes outgunning the police, but otherwise, man, people have the right to bear arms, and I got no ideological opposition to that at all.”
Let’s take a look at Newsom’s record on guns.
In June 2021, Newsom bashed a federal judge after the judge ruled that California’s assault weapons ban was “unconstitutional” and violated the Second Amendment.
“The fact that this judge compared the AR-15 – a weapon of war that’s used on the battlefield – to a Swiss Army Knife completely undermines the credibility of this decision and is a slap in the face to the families who’ve lost loved ones to this weapon,” Newsom claimed. “We’re not backing down from this fight, and we’ll continue pushing for common sense gun laws that will save lives.”
But the AR-15 is not a “weapon of war,” and it is not “used on the battlefield” by modern militaries. The AR-15 is the civilian version of the U.S. military’s M4 rifle. The M4 is able to fire in a fully automatic mode, while the AR-15 is a semi-automatic rifle.
In December 2021, after the Supreme Court decided to leave a Texas anti-abortion law in place, Newsom responded by threatening gun sellers and manufacturers with fines of “at least $10,000,” posting on X, “SCOTUS is letting private citizens in Texas sue to stop abortion?! If that’s the precedent then we’ll let Californians sue those who put ghost guns and assault weapons on our streets. If TX can ban abortion and endanger lives, CA can ban deadly weapons of war and save lives.”
