You'd think the tone of our reporting of a spike in minority gun purchases would be negative.
Nope.
We're thrilled that "they" have decided to join "us" in owning a firearm!
The more the merrier and unlike what the media says, we're not racist as a whole.
I think they make a causation/correlation error with (white) racists and guns.
Every white supremacist I've ever met was a gun owner.
Hardly a single (white) gun owner I've met is a racist.
Being a racist might cause gun ownership, but gun ownership doesn't cause racism.
Part of the reason that we gun owners are thrilled to have minorities buying guns for their defense, even though many of them are citing a fear of hate-crimes, is we know we're safe from their owning them for this reason.
We're not out there doing hate-crimes.
