(9,612 posts)2. The NRA approves of anything
that sells more guns. It's nothing more than a trade organization for the munitions business.
Remember that the first modern gun control law in the US was signed by Ronald Reagan to keep blacks from carrying.

Remember, this was the only time they were absolutely quiet instead of saying the victim should have had a gun.
If you're a black male, the last thing they want is to arm you. But you knew that, right?

(34,200 posts)4. The NRA would love it if the black community embraced the RKBA
It would undercut the Democratic support for much gun control and increase sales.
They haven't said anything about this case as far as I know. they usually don't say anything about specific cases contrary to popular belief.

(112,983 posts)5. They're too busy selling white suburban daddyrabbits arsenals
to shoot black guys with guns. Black males are the NRA's bogeymen.

states and out of red state hell holes. A modern day underground railroad of sorts.
