    Oh no, not all gun owners who’ve done drugs. Just certain ones.

    The 2nd amendment bros aren’t going to help in this case. The NRA declined get involved in the police shooting of Philando Castile who was licensed to carry his gun and who told the police he was legally carrying it. The NRA said it was because he also was in possession of Marijuana, which makes it illegal for him to have a gun.

      Do not lump the NRA in with gun owners. FUDDs are basically the only people who donate to the nra anymore. They’re a trash ass organization that just shills for repubs. Every gun owner who isn’t suckin the nras tit, thinks that the Castile case was bullshit, same with the Taylor shooting. Those cops should be in jail for murder.

          Sure that I can’t say they wouldn’t, but they’re not the NRA type anymore. A large portion are not the racist assholes the NRA stands for now.

          Do remember there are a lot more gun owners now that are on the left. There are also a lot more minorities that are gun owners as well.
