It seems to border on bigotry. \u00a0Sadly, it\u2019s a pattern for Behar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHere\u2019s the thing: once Black people get guns in this country, the gun laws will change.

There\u2019s a man in Connecticut who watched a home invasion and watched his neighbor\u2019s whole family get killed. He built an AR-15 because Connecticut won\u2019t allow you to buy one but if you abide by rules you can build them. He has one in his house to protect his family because he never wants to see that happen again. He is a Black man\u2026that\u2019s all I\u2019m saying is that they\u2019re not all these \u2018crazy people,\u2019 Granger&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=K91qE3DDrws\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"joy-behars-black-gun-ownership-miseducation\" title=\"Joy Behar's Black Gun Ownership (Mis)Education\">explained<\/a>.<\/strong>&nbsp;\u201cBlack people are buying guns!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Granger knows what she\u2019s talking about.

If not Granger or Shepherd, she could listen to others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Philip Smith, the Founder and President of the National African American Gun Association (NAAGA), started his organization in 2015 but has recently seen, \u201can awakening\u201d of Black gun ownership. \u201cIt\u2019s a good thing,\u201d Smith&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/news\/nbcblk\/black-people-are-looking-safety-gun-ownership-rcna32150\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"joy-behars-black-gun-ownership-miseducation\" title=\"Joy Behar's Black Gun Ownership (Mis)Education\"><strong>told NBC<\/strong><\/a>, adding his group has grown by at least 1,000 every month over the past two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One NAAGA member, Nikki Duncan, is a mother of two daughters and&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/US\/rise-gun-ownership-people-color\/story?id=80008877\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"joy-behars-black-gun-ownership-miseducation\" title=\"Joy Behar's Black Gun Ownership (Mis)Education\">told Behar\u2019s own network<\/a><\/strong>, ABC News, the group helped her get acquainted with her firearm and learn safety practices. \u201cWith the kind of climate\u2026 I wanted to be a gun owner, but I also wanted to be a responsible gun owner,\u201d Duncan said. \u201cI have two daughters, I wanted them both to know that it\u2019s OK for you to own a weapon and it\u2019s OK to have them in defense of your home.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first-hand&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/news\/nbcblk\/black-people-are-looking-safety-gun-ownership-rcna32150\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"joy-behars-black-gun-ownership-miseducation\" title=\"Joy Behar's Black Gun Ownership (Mis)Education\"><strong>news reports<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;of increased Black gun ownership and interest in safety courses, more training and practice are boundless.

It is in fact the same progressive-Left gun control advocates that watch and attend Behar\u2019s live show, and Behar herself, who push the racist narrative behind Black gun ownership.

Behar should listen to her African-American co-hosts or read more about Black gun ownership and the history of the Second Amendment, as well as the racist origins of gun control in the post-Civil War era. She might just get a better understanding of why they are choosing by the millions to exercise their Constitutional rights to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Larry Keane\u00a0<\/strong><em>is Senior Vice President of Government and Public Affairs and General Counsel for the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nssf.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"joy-behars-black-gun-ownership-miseducation\" title=\"Joy Behar's Black Gun Ownership (Mis)Education\">National Shooting Sports Foundation<\/a>, the firearms industry trade association.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\">***<a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/\" campaign=\"BuySellGA_Register\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">Buy and Sell on GunsAmerica!<\/a>***<\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cHere\u2019s the thing: once Black people get guns in this country, the gun laws will change.
