Under Obama Whites bought more guns, and hoarded ammunition. Now, with the election of Trump, minorities are doing the same: "In the days since the election, apparent supporters have spray-painted swastikas across the country, harassed Muslims and Latino people and even hosted a white nationalist conference in D.C., where attendees were spotted proudly giving the Nazi salute. Trump, supported by the Ku Klux Klan, made plans to build a wall between the U.S. and Mexico and ban all Muslims from entry the county central parts of his campaign. "You feel that racists now feel like they can attack us just because the president is doing it," one unidentified gun shop owner told NBC News." http://www.nydailynews.com/news/nat...-guns-donald-trump-election-article-1.2886437
I guess this is supposed to scare white people. Consider how loyal they are to progressivism and the Democratic party, you'd think they'd avoid guns on principle.
Everyone has the right to bear arms so long as they are a law abiding citizen. Why would you start a thread about the race of the individual who owns one? Who cares? The left wing bigots are out of control - - - Updated - - - According to the OP, trump will be banning "all muslims". LOL
Pssst buried in the article.. The November numbers have not yet been released. Even when they do come out, officials do not break down the figure by demographics, so it will be impossible to tell how many more minority citizens applied. So why is NBC and the daily news race baiting again?
Didn't we play "Cowboys and Indians" at one time back in the day? Is this just a build-up to a new game with (some) different players?

Good for them. Every law-abiding citizen of the United States can and should exercise their 2nd Amendment rights.
What a brainwashed idiot this person is. He/she probably going to kill somebody for looking at them the wrong way, because the Leftists have fear mongered them into believing a Klansmen is hiding behind ever corner, and then blame the murder on Trump hysteria. Whatever I think the point of the article is real clear. Leftists are sending a message that they are ready for a higher form of war, lulz. They want to intimidate White people with this because the Democratic Party is the epicenter of racism in this world. The response to this is pretty obvious, its a tale as old as time: Arms race.
A prominent delusion of the Left is that the groups described above are the stereotypical mainstream supporters of Trump. In fact, they are the fringe maniacs that are walking a ledge next to extended prison terms. I have a permit and I carry a gun. If I see a white guy attacking a black or brown guy, my sights are going to be on the white guy.
According to crime statistics you're normally going to be seeing a white guy attacking a white guy or a black guy attacking a black guy or a brown guy attacking a brown guy.
Ah, fake news. Know how to spot it? You get an emotional reaction or you get angry. It is called click bait for the useful idiots. Nice of many to put coins in the pockets of corporations like the NYT as they get paid on clicks.
Is that the same as 8 years of right wing gibberish that Obama was going to take away peoples guns thus providing more cowards with an excuse to buy, and hoard, guns, and ammunition?
It will be pretty hard for the left to get this genie back in the bottle next time they want to advocate for tougher gun control. Time for universal carry laws to be enacted.
Yes, "Who cares". Obviously not you. However, the minority person who is being harassed must. Are you saying Trump did not say that? http://www.cnn.com/2015/12/07/politics/donald-trump-muslim-ban-immigration/index.html - - - Updated - - - Republicans won't allow that just as they voted down stricter controls on the mentally ill having guns. http://usinfonews.com/index.php/201...-allow-severely-mentally-ill-people-buy-guns/
Yes, because brave lefties will never want to use a firearm to protect themselves. Only those cowards on the right. Lefties will vigorously use their cell phones to call the cops, the latest copy of the NYT to beat miscreants about the head and shoulders, and long meaningful conversations about the evils of white privilege and intersectionality. Why, I feel safer already.
Obama tried on multiple occasions to ban guns. If he and his party succeeded, every semi-automatic rifle in the country would not be allowed to be sold today. Just because he failed multiple times in his efforts doesn't mean he didn't try. That's just the left's way of not acknowledging their own failures.
Minorities Buying More Guns No sweat, they probably haven't got the brains to know that bullets should be inserted into the chamber pointed end first..
