Why are you censoring all of the replies. I am still getting them in my email, which further explain why there is no unity in the 2A community. Let everyone see the replies on the website.
Hey everybody is making way too big of a deal about this. I think the concept of NAAGA is awesome. It’s like A club within THE club. There is no reason that 50% of all black Americans shouldn’t be gun toting conservatives, unless of course a handful of white guys whine about reverse racism in a situation that doesn’t warrant it. It has nothing to do with trying to exclude whites is my guess, and it seems a way to reach out to and introduce this lifestyle to those that wouldn’t normally gravitate to it. Think about it, if you… Read more »
In twenty years of competition shooting at the local to national level in IDPA and USPSA I can count on one hand the number of Black shooters. Perhaps it’s living where I do. I would be interested in others observations. There are a number of reasons for the dearth of Black shooters. Then again there is a dearth of “White” competitors considering the number of whites who own guns and for some of the same reasons. Trying to drag more people into the sport by racial identification seems to me doomed to failure. But hey, it’s their rice bowl.
all this African American BS is way OVER DONE.
either were ALL AMERICANS OR WERE BALKANIZED AMERICANS.
BECAUSE THAT’S WHAT ALL THIS SEPARATIST CRAP IS LEADING UP TO.
i am WHITE, AND WILL STICK WITH MY OWN KIND.

Why the need or desire to further divide Americans? Don’t we have enough of that already? The NRA, GOA, even JPFO takes any and all who want to join, no questions asked. All are welcome!
No one needs to protect themselves more than Black Americans and 9 years ago I wouldn’t have given a thought to a segregated association attempting to introduce fire arms as a means of that protection. Today, because I’m a White Conservative American, I’m labeled a racist Neo-Nazi out of total ignorance and knowledge of me and what I stand for. There is no such thing as an African American, unless you just came here in a slave ship and recently swore in as an American citizen. By today’s standards, WE are just Americans regardless of color, race or creed. If… Read more »
WOW! Up to now, I had no idea there was such a thing as an African-American gun, nor that such inanimate objects could form an association. Who knew?!
…and they don’t respond to phone messages or emails–at either the state or national level.
We do not need any more race based BS. Leave that to the DEMOCRAPS. If he is a good instructor he is a good instructor period. I don’t give a damn what color someone is because character is NOT color it is a person.
