These are magnificent Americans that are never reported on by the MSM. This isn't a group that Obama expects to get "push-back from.

Listen to how articulate these speakers are.
I fear they are too late. As I say so often: “I hope to be wrong about this.”

Obama media will ensure that this is never to be seen by Blacks that need to see this.

"Black conservative leaders discuss how the NRA was created to protect freed slaves"
While it is true that the first gun laws in America were enacted to protect the slaveholders from their recently freed slaves and to also allow the former slavers to attack their unarmed former slaves with impunity. It is not true that the NRA was created for that. The NRA was founded in the north (New York) by former Union Generals (such as Ambrose Burnside) who were appalled at the lack of marksmanship amongst their recruits during the Civil War. It was founded to promote and teach marksmanship skills to men who weren't shooting as much as their forefathers because so many of them now lived in cities.

Today, the statement would be:
The Democrats are for LAZY people....
The republicans RINOs are for people who don't give a damn...
The TEA PARTY is for people who are FIGHTING for our LIBERTIES!!!

All due respect ‘’Old Devil Dog’’ but can you provide evidence of that? If indeed that was the case certainly a by-product of the NRA was in doing just what this video explains.

"All due respect Old Devil Dog but can you provide evidence of that?"
This is pretty easy evidence to find...
From their own website:
http://www.nrahq.org/history.asp
"Dismayed by the lack of marksmanship shown by their troops, Union veterans Col. William C. Church and Gen. George Wingate formed the National Rifle Association in 1871. The primary goal of the association would be to "promote and encourage rifle shooting on a scientific basis," according to a magazine editorial written by Church."
"After being granted a charter by the state of New York on November 17, 1871, the NRA was founded. Civil War Gen. Ambrose Burnside, who was also the former governor of Rhode Island and a U.S. Senator, became the fledgling NRA's first president."
