Billionaire Elon Musk revealed a mixed stance on proposed gun control measures following the mass shooting at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas – calling for tighter background check requirements even as he defended the need for the Second Amendment.
The billionaire Tesla boss said in emails to CNBC that he supports “tight background checks” as a prerequisite for all gun sales.
He also suggested imposing limits on the sale of assault weapons so that only those in specific circumstances, such as gun range owners and people living in a “high risk location, like gang warfare” can buy them.
At the same time, Musk backed the Second Amendment – arguing the Constitutional amendment is a necessary check against political tyranny.
