In case people wonder why law-abiding Hispanics and especially law-abiding blacks acquiring guns is a big deal, it is because guns, more than ANY OTHER ISSUE, have the ability to flip Democrats into Republicans. No right-minded gun owner would EVER vote Democrat, particularly after Democrats virtually (and sometimes outright) PROMISE to take guns away from them. Guns aren’t cheap, and there’s nothing that can match them for protection - so people will get their backs up when politicians start making noises about taking them.
...but first, those people need to own guns.
This should actually serve as a warning to Americans since most “hispanics” are illegals or the result of illegal immigration and are simply wanting to arm legally or illegally to defend their criminality. This is as bad as letting members of Islamic cult and Antifa buy and possess guns. It won’t end well.
Most Hispanics I know are inclined to “take care of business” on their own.
Next shooter of invading Mexicans isn’t going to get off a whole lot of shots before somebody says, Gringo, two can play that game/
Full TRANSPARENCY: My son in law and grandson are of Mexican extraction.
Again, it's not in their culture. Anger and spite are. We have weaponized most of the illegals already. When they get here the first things they own are smart phones and a set of wheels.
These two items give them technology previously available to military units only a few short years ago. Communications and transportation in the wrong hands-- especially among large tribal population groups--are weapons.
The only thing they don't have is a uniform identifying them as an occupying army. Now we are supposed to feel good about "the Hispanic community" carrying concealed?
There is no argument that they can't pass a background check. They don't need to. They have more angles going for them than a geometry teacher has.
If they can't do it legally, the cartels and gangs already working on U.S. soil will gladly sell them all the weapons they can pay for.
This will not end well.
Women.
Twenty years ago I saw the OCCASIONAL wife or girlfriend tagging along - or being dragged - to the range... often rather obviously bored or semi-patiently enduring the session. These days about a third of the people I see at the range are women, and most of them are because they want to use a handgun for defensive purposes.
Two weeks ago I saw three adjoining lanes being used by three different demographics* which aren't supposed to be getting along according to progressive dogma, yet there they were, having a good time and doing so at a shooting range.

*They were all Americans, all initially strangers to one another, all being polite to one another and all there to learn to protect their families.... now there's a "demographic" you won't hear mentioned in the MSM or by any Democrat floating at the top of their septic tank.
Great for assimilation and might open door to reading the Constitution!
Tweeted this article. Truly a sign that bad events can cause some good.
Absolutely "just the tip of the iceberg."
Those very same people will flock to the one candidate that is vocally defending that right and vote for him in 2020, PDJT.
