The NRA is always looking to expand their appeal. They're aware of market trends and demographics. They've got hunters, men looking to protect their families, men who want to be macho and defend their rights and status, women in general, moms in particular... more more more!!!

The more fear, the more guns are sold. That's all they care about.

If there is anything good to come out of these past few weeks, it's that it is a reminder that Black people can also legally purchase guns, carry them in the open and there is the chance they might use those guns on white people .

Sadly, I believe this is the only way to get people to support gun control. Remind all the yahoos out there that the 2nd amendment also applies to black people.


I hope this does NOT BECOME A RACE-BAITING ISSUE. Stop going down that road. It is an ugly, ugly road. And it feeds right into the hands of the NRA.

Go ahead and make a list of your possessions, and I'll tell you which ones you need and which ones you should give up because I don't approve of them.


Meth
Rabid raccoons
Land mine
Child porn
Slave

I could keep going....

The NRA has been silent on the fact that at least one and possibly both men were legally carrying.

Yikes. There are a lot of African Americans that are law abiding citizens that should be able to carry a gun.

Or open carry by Muslims or Mexicans.

They'd rather die, and kill you, than do that. You are calling for civil war.


Which just shows me that people who own these weapons are mentally unstable. And they shouldn't own firearms anyway.

I mean, really, what reasonable person says that asking for people to give up one particular weapon or at least store them at a range is asking for civil war? That is just so far beyond a sensible response.

Can't they take up another hobby? Maybe they should take up reading or something and then they won't be so upset when we try to get rid of military assault weapons being on our streets. They can have target practice with handguns or shot guns. They don't need assault weapons at our safety's expense. What about our rights to live in a safe country? My rights are now being violated.

And be sure to underline those that have no use other than to kill large numbers of people.
