U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro posted a video on Tuesday stressing that she is a gun owner and noting that responsible gun owners will not have a problem with her.
Her video comes the day after she told FOX News, “If you bring a gun into the District, you mark my words, you’re going to jail. I don’t care if you have a license in another district and I don’t care if you’re a law-abiding gun owner somewhere else.”
Pirro added, “You bring a gun into this District count on going to jail and hope you get the gun back.”
She posted clarifying comments to X this morning, stressing her “proud” support of the Second Amendment and making clear her focus is on people “unlawfully carrying guns” in the District.
Pirro then posted a video in which she stressed that the goal, which she shares with President Trump, of “taking guns out of the hands of criminals.”
“You’re responsible, you follow the laws, you’re not gonna have a problem with me,” Pirro concluded.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche also posted to X on Tuesday, making clear that “this Administration and Department of Justice will fiercely protect Second Amendment rights.”
