The only bad part of this is that it creates shortages.

And you know damn well if they ever do ban guns, they will only try to get them from law-abiding white people.

It's not my neighborhood that the social justice weenies are demanding to be depoliced and turned over to chaos and evil.
I'm surprised that blacks are falling behind the population in general on legal gun purchases.

Honest question: How much of the sales to black Americans is for personal protection from everyone or is in anticipation of using them on police, military, and white Americans in the near future?
This would be a better question for young white Americans than black Americans - I don't see a lot of blacks among the horde rioting in Portland right now.

Probably as close to accurate as we can get.
We’ll see of course.

My guess is that every one of them is a new Trump voter too.
You can’t buy a weapon if you’re a convict and so these must be law-abiding folk.

Lots of guns get bought by noobs only to be sold later to somebody who can legally buy.
Happens every day.

We shouldn’t judge minorities by what we see on the news. That’s not the majority of them. Most minorities are decent hard-working people who just want to raise a family and be left alone. There’s money to be made by showing the fringe element, so that’s what you are being shown. The people buying guns are buying them to deal with the rising crime and anti-police sentiment. People are realizing that if they call 911 there just might not be anyone to answer in the future.

I’m sure you meant”can’t buy”, and I’m aware of straw man purchases, however, I’m of the opinion we’re looking at the vast majority of new purchases for self preservation.

That’s my thinking also...
These are legal gun sales...These are people buying for protection...
