No, it isn’t. This isn’t just about memes or sound bites and slimy tactics, which many organizations manage to steer clear of. I’m specifically referring to the racist rhetoric that the NRA employs.
They took his quote out of context and used to disparage March for our Lives in an appeal to their base. He got played. That isn’t the actions of a group that values black voices.
Ultimately, Mike recites most of the NRA talking points, but in the context of police violence and high crime instead of government violence and rural life, and ignores mass killings and all of the racism within the NRA. I didn’t see anything terribly new insightful in the interview.
All I can say is it looks like shilling for the NRA in an an “End Racism” T-Shirt.
Edited to correct my mistake.
