Lamenting how little has changed, Kim\u2019s new message began:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cFive years ago, almost to the day, I wrote an essay for my blog about my thoughts on gun control in honor of National Gun Violence Awareness Day. In it I asked \u2018is it more important to protect the second amendment than to protect our own children?&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>And she reflected on the horrible tragedy in Uvalde:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cYesterday 19 children were murdered by an 18 year old, and I find myself heartbroken, disgusted and furious about how little has been done by law makers to enact gun laws that protect our children. There is no excuse and no justification for what happened yesterday. The current laws in our country around gun control are not protecting our children. We have to push law makers to enact laws that are fitting in today\u2019s world.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>From there, she took to policy discussion, slamming the proliferation of assault weapons:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cSemi automatic weapons, assault weapons, weapons of war, should not be legally sold or owned by American civilians. They should be banned. Period. AR-15 style semi automatic rifles were used in Newtown, Parkland, Aurora, San Bernardino, Orlando, Parkland, in the Buffalo shooting 10 days ago, and reportedly in yesterday\u2019s shooting. Assault weapons are not a self defense tool. They are sophisticated weapons, designed to kill.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The\u00a0<strong>KKW Beauty<\/strong> mogul continued on:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cAssault weapons didn\u2019t even exist when the Second Amendment was written. We have to stop allowing people to use a sentence written centuries ago when <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/technology\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">technology<\/a>, times, humanity were completely different, to dictate how we regulate gun ownership, &amp; how we protect our kids today. The legal age to purchase a firearm is also a serious issue and needs to be addressed and increased. The Parkland shooter, the Buffalo grocery store shooter, the Texas shooter yesterday, they were all under 21 and reportedly purchased weapons legally. These are teenagers. Someone who is not old enough to buy alcohol should not be allowed to purchase a firearm. There is no world in which an 18 year old needs a semi automatic weapon, or any weapon, and no world in which the outcome can be anything other than tragic.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>And she went on to add that she was \u201cdumbfounded\u201d as to how the weapons were still \u201cnormal, acceptable, and legal,\u201d writing:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cAs I even type these words I am seriously dumbfounded that this is something considered normal, acceptable and legal. There is no question that mental health, racism, deep-seated hatred all play a role in the motivation for mass shootings in recent years. And at a community level, as parents, teachers, there is a lot that can be done to help teens and young adults that isn\u2019t being done. But the one thing that law makers can and should control now is access to weapons.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The reality TV superstar added:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThere are of course people over 21 who buy guns to cause harm, and other mass shootings in recent years have been carried out by people over 21, but if we increase legal age to purchase, coupled with a ban on assault weapons, we can without a doubt reduce the number of senseless tragedies and save children\u2019s lives.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Then she finished in a flourish, pleading for action to be taken by politicians nationwide:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe can\u2019t accept this as normal anymore. It\u2019s not normal for a teenager to kill children. It\u2019s not normal for our kids to be practicing active shooter drills in schools. It\u2019s not normal to be shot while shopping for groceries. I\u2019m not numbed by it. I will never be numbed by it. We can\u2019t accept it. We can\u2019t have another five years go by without effective, impactful laws put in place to protect our kids. We are parents, we are mothers, we are begging and pleading for action.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Along with her rousing thread, the mom of four also asked the country\u2019s leaders to \u201ccome together\u2026 and put children first,\u201d and shared a screenshot of her 2017 blog post, as you can see (below):<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Here is my blog post from 2017, unfortunately it has not aged. ???? <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/vlqoxIf8rg\">pic.twitter.com\/vlqoxIf8rg<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Kim Kardashian (@KimKardashian) <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/KimKardashian\/status\/1529544874407739392?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 25, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Well said.\u00a0She makes a LOT of sense.<\/p>\n<p>Now will there be any real, effective, and sensible action from our political leaders on this?
