Preparing for war?
Likely an attempt to scare whites into supporting gun control, so that law-abiding blacks can’t keep arming up. Pathetic.
NO-—KNOWN gun ownership by blacks is up....
The street blacks have had a high number of guns for over 50 years.
The drug gangs will always have guns -it’s the only way they can protect their stashes and money from the other gangs.
And the government can’t stop them from getting guns.
In before the “Wayne’s suits” & “the NRA sucks” zombie attack...
Yes they can
Correction......Yes, the government can stop them
Ownership of guns by law-abiding minorities is up because they can also see the instability of this democrat administration and the corruption ensuing....

My brother had a clinic appointment in the last month, with a nurse drawing blood and somehow a conversation started up on handguns. She was mid-40s....never owned a gun in her life. He gave her the five-minute introduction....best small pistol for lugging around in a purse, etc. Then he gave her the name of the better shop around town and how the purchase would work, and lectured her on taking their weekend training class.
I think if you went out and just gauged first-time ownership in the past year....probably over 5-million across the US since the Minneapolis episode.
The government can stop gangs from including guns and ammo in their drug shipments?
The government can stop them from giving some Army sergeant a bag of cash to look the other way while they steal a truck full of armaments?
The government can stop gangs from hiring an unemployed machinist to make guns in his basement?
People who don’t care about breaking the law can’t be stopped, except by imprisonment or death.
By “Black Gun” I thought they meant Evil Black Rifle......
Black Gun Ownership up 58.2%Not including the Saturday night specials.
Well, the NRA would suck less without Wayne. And his suits.
Black Guns Matter
Everybody that is smart should have prepared for war at least a decade ago.
Most are late to the party.
Conservatives may assume incorrectly that gun ownership and gun training is their advantage against the Great Reset.
UK Media as whole is biased against the Legacy Constitutional Aristocrat rejecting US of A, and use their out-of-America position to publish news in a manner that Denigrates Legacy America while publishing some news suppressed and censored by American Mainstream Media thus appearing to be more "unbiased".
