The NRA, which Obama hates, was founded on the principle that every person including blacks was entitled to protect themselves. The NRA was, in part, formed to give southern blacks the power to own guns to protect themselves from the KKK who were all Democrats, BTW.
The Second Amendment is very important to all Americans as former slave and great American orator Frederick Douglass said, “A man’s rights rest in three boxes: the ballot box, the jury box, and the cartridge box.”
