True, but the GOP spending decades convincing its members that every single negative racial stereotype -- like in that video -- is true certainly doesn't help.

I agree for stories such as in Missouri where that teen of African descent was shot through a door by an old white racist shithead for merely knocking on his door, however that's why I specifically avoided cases like that, because it's 2 different arguments per motivation.

There are definitely incidents of gun violence based off racism, this thread and what I and I think SiO were talking about isn't about that, however, it's about the overall gun culture in the U.S. that has led to this flippant attitude towards guns where many people think they're not the deadly machines designed to kill people that they are.

They view them as problem/argument solvers, which isn't inherently racist, however is an attitude racists will use in conjunction with their racism.
