Considering that black people are disproportionately convicted under current gun laws, many only having commitied the crime of illegally owning a gun for self-defense because they live in dangerous areas, areas made dangerous because of drug prohibition & decades of collective trauma from aggressive policing & socialoeconomic discrimination. Any additional gun law would probably be a hug blow to black communities.
