    I won’t deny, there’s some assholes in the GOP. But the entire stance of Democrats is making it harder for minorities to arm themselves, same as it was in 1934.

        Yes, Reagan was an asshole.

        Have you heard of red flag laws? It’s the latest attempt by the Democrats at keeping minorities and neurodivergent people from arming themselves.

        Yes, black people are subjected to discrimination and prejudice. Black Panthers arming themselves was key to them getting heard.

          You have yet to demonstrate how democratic attempts at federal gun control are racist or targeting minorities above anyone else.

            Oh, that’s easy. There’s numerous essays, articles, and entire books taking about the racist roots of gun control. Hell, google scholar lists a quarter million articles on the subject. https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=gun+control+racism+history&hl=en&as_sdt=0&as_vis=1&oi=scholart

            I don’t have single article in particular for you to read, but any article in that list of results should be sufficient.

            I did find this nice article on google, seems to back up my claims that gun control is racist. https://www.apa.org/news/press/releases/2022/08/racism-gun-rights
