Such incidents have encouraged many people of color to think about buying weapons for self-defense. Gun store owners say the number of Black and minority customers they’ve seen has quadrupled since the election. In addition, Black gun groups are reporting double the normal number of attendees at their meetings.
“Most folks are pretty nervous about what kind of America we’re going to see over the next 5-10 years,” Philip Smith, founder of the National African American Gun Association told NBC News.
Ed.: We heartily welcome all new gun owners. |

I'm calling Propaganda Corps BS on the on the racial incidents. At best they are false flags. The enemy camp is the only entity that has anything to gain stirring the racial pot.
OTOH, I welcome all gun owners into our ranks. So go to those gun shows and shops and join us. |

| NRA, being America's oldest civil rights group, should be getting lots of new members who are just now exercising their 2A rights. Welcome! |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
