The whole gun regulation debate come down to 3 words, white male privilege

[TheKentuckian]

89. My great grandmother owned, as did my grandmother, as did my mother, and I do too.

Great grandmother was full blood Cherokee so neither white nor male, they say she was a crackshot.

My grandfather owned rifles, shotguns, and pistols. He wasn't much fairer (if any) than say Wesley Snipes. His cousins all hunted, would at times carry for self defense, and for farm use.

I also know plenty of white folks that have nothing to do with a gun (and plenty with several too) and plenty of black folks who own. As a percentage in my circles, more black people own.
Anecdotal evidence does indicate that white people into guns are way more into them than black people who own and they own more per person.

A male thing I can see. Outside of my family, female ownership is a much less common. Not rare but not in high numbers either. White? Meh...not that I see and even among the gun nuttiest white folks that I associate with is it about privilege that I can detect (hint: they might not want to be hanging with me if that was a principle driver).
