>>>>> Apparently not. It looks like more people are singing the we want guns song. Glad you love guns, too. Most everybody does.

This is the right wing black in a nutshell. And conservatives wonder why we despise 99% of 'em.
Exactly what is wrong with my post?

What sort of different tune? Since it's obvious you're one of those who believe anyone who enjoys shooting and owns firearms is some sort of nut, seems it's you n yours singing the different tune. Suddenly ly it NOT so nutty to own guns. Fks like me never did think owning guns was nuts. (Shrug) Don't matter. I welcome all new shooters. Don't care who they vote for.

So long as they have no designs on pointing their firearms at me, grab a bench and get hot. Our shooting club has people of all types, skin colors, political views, etc. Interestingly, the scarcest. ..demographic. ..is LEOs. Just a couple of them. Seems cops don't have much interest in shooting as a sport. Not outside of LE only interdepartmental competitions anyway. They don't like competing against civilians.

Some have an attitude that competing with civilians is somehow beneath them. At least that's the public face. Truth is that most can't compete on that level. It's way harder than they're used to. Since most competitions require that LE compete in advanced divisions (we require LE or armed security shoot in A Class or above) the pressure is to much for the average cop.

Anyway, I'm not singing any different pieces of music. The more people who are armed out there, the more polite our society will become. We all have the right to keep and bear arms. Everyone. This uptick in "minorities" or whatever becoming gun owners is a good thing. Now folks can see for themselves what the shooting community is really like. Rather than just going on leftist propoganda. Nothing wrong with that.

I've never been disrespected by anyone at a gun range or gun store. Last time I bought a gun and showed my LTC (which was last Friday), the Duck Dynasty-looking guy behind the counter said, "Yeah, that's what I like to see!"

I know a lot of people who have bought or are planning to buy guns since the election. I'm planning on upgrading too and joining a black American gun club.

I do feel a lot of black Americans are both afraid and are doing like some whites did after Obama's election and "daring" someone to mess with them and their gun. Also, contrary to what many whites may believe, there were already a lot of black people who legally owned guns.

I'm thinking of getting my son one as well and getting him involved in a club along with my nephew. I honestly am thinking of creating a new predominantly black gun club in my city. I have been thinking about it for a while and feel that due to the election, more people will want to join so now is a good time to do it lol.

well,, I am now and have always been FOR law abiding citizens having access to firearms.

If minorities who are law abiding citizens are buying firearms, for any and/or all of the lawful purposes a person uses a firearm, then I think that is wonderful.... and I am personally safer because of it!
