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 |
| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
