The NRA fully understands the racial dynamic at play here. As long as we can blame something other
than guns, America will not have to come to terms with the truth that
violence is a complicated phenomenon that is made far more lethal by the
easy availability and killing power of firearms. And for an
organization with an overwhelmingly conservative, white base, that
"something other" is minorities.
The fact that this issue is actually complicated if probably why most gun loons don't really get it.
