Yes, i understood that from the title. I meant why is he pointing that out? Is he just condemning it, indirectly saying all gun control advocates are racist against black people. or is he suggesting it as a strategy to be used today.
I guess he was trying to be ironic.

It's pointing out Regan's/Republican's racism and their fear of Black gun owners and how that fear spurred action on gun control.
The headline was purposefully provocative because of "Any press is good press thinking". Thr problem with this in modern day is that most people are just reading headlines and if you actually want to make a point to the reader and not just click bait it should be emphasized in the headline.

Instead people are shytting on them for a dumb headline, no one gets the point being made, and now they have to deal with the headache of blowback from a retarded headline.

I agree with everything you said here, which is why I called it "heavy-handed." The bad headline overshadowed a good article.
