The NRA's complete silence at Philando Castile's death proves they are racists

Where the the NRA outrage? Where is the white gun owners outrage? Where is the gun owner's outrage?

You are such hypocrites.

Next time to get the notion to think, stop before you reveal just how stupid you are.

I appreciate the NRA's work in some areas of gun rights, but given some of their behavior/stances I could never be a member.

Stop embarrassing yourself, PP. You cannot argue with OP's post so you just go on some weird name calling rant? Grow up.

The NRA has always been racist. Now they are just transparently racist like all trump lovers.

You are both trying to fan the flames of racism, which makes YOU the racists.

You the racist!
No YOU the racist!

Ahh, name calling back and forth solves everything, doesn't it?

I hate the NRA, and a lot of their members probably are racist, but I don't know why anyone would call the NRA racist for not condemning this incident. From the tape that was released, I saw a cop who made an incredibly bad judgement call on the spur of the moment and shot a law abiding guy who was trying to comply with the cop's directive. I suspect he would have done the same thing if the guy had been white. The cop probably deserves some kind of punishment, but I don't see this as a racist incident. The NRA may not either. In any case, the NRA supports gun ownership - not killing black people. I just don't see the connection.

And if the victim had been white, you think the NRA would be silent?! No fricking way!! The man killed was a legal gun owner and was killed because he had a legally owned and carry firearm.

If black and Hispanic men , who do not belong to the NRA, stop shooting, stabbing, and killing each other. Will white NRA white men still be racists? As of the last year the murder rates in those 2 categories will drop more than 80% the first year

American gun owners are racists - that is for sure.

A white guy legally carrying concealed was killed in a Costco parking lot in Las Vegas a couple years ago in a scenario very similar to this one.

Never heard a PEEP out of the media about it. Nothing.


Plenty of NRA members are hopping mad about the Castile shooting because we identify 100% with him, and we know that could've been any of us. And if you'd bothered to check various gun owner and concealed carry web forums and chat groups, you'd know that this has been THE discussion topic ever since the verdict. Gun owners are PISSED.

But you'd rather stay ignorant and perpetuate your silly stupid stereotypes.

So STFU and SMD.

Hey Jeff, how many threads on this do we need? Because this is now the THIRD one.

Is the subject too touchy for you or are you simply opposed to seeing multiple threads about subjects that don't concern you specifically - like overaggressive policing, racial profiling, and injustice?

Yes, I do. Why would the NRA feel compelled to say anything? Far as I know, they have no beef with law enforcement. This was one rogue cop who made a really bad call based on what he incorrectly perceived to be a threat. The NRA has enough enemies now; I don't think it wants to generate more by pissing off cops - many of whom may be NRA members.

I just see how quick libs here are to point out multiple threads on the same topic, and I wanna be like you.

Of course, it's difficult because I'm not a retarded eunuch, but give me a break, I'm trying!

You certainly sound cognitively challenged to me so your hard work is definitely paying off.
