"I don't know why no one had the courage to ask her those questions, why I was the first person to do it. If I had to guess I'd imagine she's got friends in high places, I would guess it's because she's a woman of color and no one wants to be seen as the person attacking a woman of color, who's running for president."

Tulsi Gabbard's accusations against Kamala Harris
Tulsi Gabbard attacked Kamala Harris' past record during a Democratic presidential debate in Detroit in 2019. Harris served as California’s attorney general from 2011 through 2016 and before that as San Francisco’s district attorney.
Gabbard accused Harris, who claims to be pro cannabis-legalization, of putting over 1500 people in jail for marijuana violations during her time as a California prosecutor. Gabbard also accused the Vice-President of keeping people in jail for cheap labor, even after their sentences were served:
"Senator Harris says she's proud of her record as a prosecutor and that she'll be a prosecutor president. But I'm deeply concerned about this record. There are too many examples to cite but she put over 1,500 people in jail for marijuana violations and then laughed about it when she was asked if she ever smoked marijuana. She blocked evidence -- she blocked evidence that would have freed an innocent man from death row until the courts forced her to do so. She kept people in prison beyond their sentences to use them as cheap labor for the state of California. And she fought to keep a bail system in place that impacts poor people in the worst kind of way."
