Is the NRA a racist orgnization??

[Blackking]

As in National Rifle Association.

I don't know too much about it. I just remember seeing a few people talking like 10 years ago and it turned me off because they were rednexks.

now I'm looking back into related things.... for some goals of mine.

[Citi Trends]

I like what they stand for. I wish more of 'us' stood for some of that stuff.

and.. I saw that someone said the initial wave of gun laws was instituted after the Civil War to deny blacks the ability to defend themselves

So wouldn't anyone against what they stand for be racist

Why didn't they suggest that Trayvon Martin should have had the right to protect himself???

There are some other gun rights organizations if that's your thing but the NRA seems to be a package deal politically speaking. They go beyond just focusing on firearms legislation and take on the whole white Southern blue collar ever so slightly/moderately racist deal we all know they do. They've rolled out programs focusing on recruiting Blacks and women but their board members continue to make racist/sexist comments.

You wouldn't know it from the way the NRA acts today, but they helped write some of the first federal firearms legislation and they were involved in curbing the carry rights of the Black Panthers. They're much more extreme today and wouldn't imagine touching anything like that these days. There are also some myths floating around that the NRA was formed to teach freedmen how to shoot or to protect the freedmen shortly after the war. Both have been pretty soundly disproven.

As a whole, Blacks should stay away from these big tent gun organizations. Research shows that not all gun owners are racist, but all racists are gun owner(not all but there's an incredible correlation between the two). They cater to the FAR right.
