True but that’s irrelevant to the genesis of gun control. It is very well established that the first gun control laws were made specifically to keep freed slaves from owning guns so they couldn’t fight back against the KKK.
I lived in Arizona from 70 to 82 and any one could walk down the street with a gun on their hip.
Well, it wasn’t Arizona but I have trouble believing you were around in 1870 to 1882, old timer.
