CCRKBA CALLS NEWSOM A HYPOCRITE FOR NIXING VOTER ID REQUIREMENT
BELLEVUE, WA – The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms says California Gov. Gavin Newsom is a hypocrite for signing a law barring local governments from requiring voter identification, while still expecting gun buyers to provide ID before exercising their Second Amendment rights. Democrat Newsom is a career anti-gunner who has supported every gun control measure to come along in Sacramento. He has proposed an amendment to the U.S. Constitution which would gut the Second Amendment. His end game is to

BELLEVUE, WA – A resurfaced video of Kamala Harris telling a San Francisco press conference that authorities would “walk into” the private homes of gun owners to determine whether they were safely storing their firearms is an outrageous example of her anti-gun extremism, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms said in reaction. Harris, then serving as a district attorney in San Francisco under then-Mayor Gavin Newsom, made the comment in 2007. But the 15-second grainy video resurfaced this week and

CCRKBA: HARRIS OPPOSED SCHOOL RESOURCE OFFICERS; ONE STOPPED GA SHOOTER
BELLEVUE, WA – When she was running for the presidency in 2019, Kamala Harris advocated for the removal of school resource officers, describing it as an effort to “demilitarize” school campuses, but she has been silent on the subject after a resource officer stopped and arrested the accused shooter at Apalachee High School in Georgia. The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms is congratulating the officers involved in arresting the 14-year-old accused killer, and reminding Vice President Harris that, if she
CCRKBA: ROBBERY OF DEM DELEGATE IN CHICAGO PROVIDES LESSON
BELLEVUE, WA – The armed robbery of a Democrat delegate in Chicago during the Democratic National Convention offers a lesson on the failure of gun control to a party that preaches it, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms said in response. Published reports say the 25-year-old delegate from Texas was robbed at gunpoint by a two-man stickup crew. They took the man’s wallet and room keys, and then crossed the street to rob someone else.

BELLEVUE, WA – In the aftermath of a newspaper report that homicides in Seattle, Washington remain “far higher” than before the pandemic, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms said the revelation further reinforces the argument that gun control policies in the city, and Washington state have been a “complete failure.” The Seattle Times is reporting the city has recorded “50% more homicides in the first half of 2024 versus the same period in 2019.” Seattle set a record for murders
