Reagan passed gun control fast after the Panthers exercised their 2a rights. If minorities showed up in mass with guns, Republicans would flip on 2a immediately. Hypocrisy isn't a word they understand.

Oh now that's not fair. There's a lot of words they don't understand.

The Gun Lobby has their fangs deep into the GOP. Not only that but the gun owning MAGAs would likely vote against any candidate that made any restrictions on gun ownership. Honestly it would be the best wedge issue.

MAGAs who owns guns shoot first and ask questions later. A minority owning a gun would give them more of a license to kill them.
