There's some real hypocrisy there.
1967 Black Panthers armed with long rifles protest at the capital building and the NRA suddenly supports laws against open carry.
2020 a bunch of MASKED white dudes storm VA's capital building with long rifles and the NRA says they're patriots supporting the 2nd amendment.

Funny thing, I get too our local range at least once a week if not more. Fellow shooters are black, white, asian (many countries), Polynesian, Philippines, Native Americans, Northerners etc. that I have spoken with and many others I haven't spoken with. They are young and old, new and experienced shooters. Soldiers from all branches are stationed Locally at Fort Gordon and come to the range as well as local law enforcement personnel. Several Docs and other medical personnel come on their lunch hour to practice some group therapy. Our Range Officers are very young to very old, both black, white and asian. Everyone gets along with very few exceptions. RO and other shooters are always willing to help you out. Most are happy to allowing other shooters to try shooing a firearms they have never tried before.

what does that have to do with the NRA?

I mean, I've shot guns with guys of every race and sexuality too. Hell, pretty much in the same day.

I was pointing out what a specific organization's stance was and how that seemed to be incongruous.

edit... scratch that. I don't believe I've ever shot a gun with a transgender. #newlifegoals

The NRA has always been weak on anything but Fudd stuff, hunting with expensive rifles and shotguns and not fighting BS gun control

I think he meant the position shifting of the NRA.
Why the change? Possibly the obvious visuals?

Being less cute, to the un-involved supporters of the right to bear arms (like me), it could look like they endorse guns for protection against criminal threats that could be interpreted as Black Americans with the same rights that they did not support.

I'm not reading rank and file members, but the leadership? Maybe?
Certainly worth a long think rather than a circle the wagons denial.

btw, when I went to the range, the other guys were an eye-talian and another cbidder with an Eastern European name that sounds like when you clear your throat. All white, but only cigars in common...HA!
