Black gun owners sound off on 'ridiculous' Joy Behar's remarks: 'Her comments are stupid'
Fox News
Black gun owners sounded off to Fox News Digital after Joy Behar claimed this week that gun laws would change "once Black people get guns in this country."
"What she really shows is her, you know, utter lack of history of her own party's racist heritage and trying to disarm not just all Americans, but particularly African Americans," Oklahoma Republican Senate candidate T.W. Shannon told Fox News Digital. "We know that a big part of the NRA movement was to arm African Americans, to protect them from the Democrats that made up the KKK. So I think Joy Behar really owes an apology to African-Americans for this incendiary comment."
Gun owners frequently carp that the media is barely literate when it comes to guns and the Second Amendment, such as conflating semiautomatics with all "assault weapons", or in this case, baldly declaring that Blacks in the United States don't own firearms.
