Philando Castile was shot by a cop at a traffic light. He was a legal gun owner with his family in the car. Castile was respectful and properly informed his murderer, Officer Yane tht he had a LEGAL firearm in his car - and the cop shot him before he even moved a muscle.
Where the the NRA outrage? Where is the white gun owners outrage? Where is the gun owner's outrage? You are such hypocrites. |

They did issue a statement: https://www.yahoo.com/news/prominent-black-nra-defender-criticizes-134455045.html And one of their chief spokesmen - a black man, BTW, and criticized the decision. You are both trying to fan the flames of racism, which makes YOU the racists. |

If this had been a white man, Fox would have exploded in outrage and anger. Where are all the gun owner protests?
American gun owners are racists - that is for sure. |

I’m quite certain that OP, and others on this thread, do not really understand the meaning of “racist.”
Too many people jump to make everything about race. It isn’t. |

You do realize that gun control started out as a way to keep freed slaves from owning firearms after emancipation, right? Gun control is racist. And your ultimate pearl-clutching fear continues to be a black person with a gun- which is why you keep pushing gun control. You are the racists here. |

Stop embarrassing yourself, PP. Today, where are the gun owner's marches to protest the killing or the verdict? NOW. What are you doing about this NOW? |

| Because marches actually accomplish anything?? |

This. Disagreement is not racism. Tweeting, or not tweeting, is not racism. |

You are stupid. That's NOT. A statement from the NRA. "On Monday, Noir – who works under a pseudonym and requested his real name, though widely reported, not be used – was filming for his NRA News television show in Utah. In a phone interview, he said Castile’s death had touched him deeply. But he said he was speaking only for himself, not as a spokesman for the NRA or its leadership." |

He's not an NRA spokesman! He's just a blogger. The official NRA response was "“Rest assured, the NRA will have more to say once all the facts are known" Well, the facts are known. So where are they??? |

The NRA has said nothing. The NRA represent white gun owners only. Yes, Friends, that is racism. And complete hypocrisy. |

| Yes, found out during and after the election. Did not know the NRA was racist too...but now that's out in the open as well. |
