Herrera’s Opponent Invokes ‘Brain Development’ to Restrict Gun Rights for Adults Under 21 - Ammoland.com
Democratic congressional candidate Katy Padilla Stout says she supports stripping legal adults under 21 of their ability to purchase commonly owned semiautomatic rifles because their brains supposedly are not sufficiently developed.
That position surfaced in a short video promoted by LivesRobbed, a Texas gun-control organization pushing lawmakers to raise the minimum age for buying a so-called “assault rifle” from 18 to 21.
Asked whether she supported the proposal, Padilla Stout answered, “We know the frontal cortex isn’t done developing, and so I do think that makes common sense to be able to do that.”
Herrera Calls Out the ‘Brain Development’ Excuse
Brandon Herrera, the Republican nominee running against Padilla Stout in Texas’ 23rd Congressional District, quickly responded on X. Herrera wrote that his opponent was “apparently suggesting” raising the gun-buying age to 25—an inference apparently based on the popular claim that the frontal cortex continues developing until roughly that age.
