He meant to say "Weapons of war that I carried" and it came out "Weapons I carried in war." That's it. It is the kind of verbal goof people make all the time. He misspoke.
And Sec. Pete is right, they had to go dig up a video clip from 2018 for J.D. Vance to make his sanctimonious condemnation and bullshit accusations.
I'll translate the rest of what Sec. Pete said: "Fuck them."

I thought his comment alluded to his deployment overseas, and he was referring to military missions in general. Either way it’s a nothing burger compared to Cadet Bone Spurs or Vance claiming Walz abandoned his unit rather than deploy.

“We can make sure that those weapons of war, that I carried in war, is the only place where those weapons are at,” Walz says in the clip posted by Harris’ campaign on Tuesday.

and I can understand why some people may not want to have children for societal and political reasons. As for anti-child sentiments, I have some concerns about children being raised in homes with horrible parents, particularly those who behave like they are still children themselves.
