The NRA will not defend anyone if drugs or police are involved.

Leaving aside the NRA a lot of 2A Advocates were / are hoping that this case will bring an end to these questions being on the 4473 form. They are obviously unconstitutional and they should not be on there.

You forgot black.

They don't care about black folks defending themselves.

Lol, gotta love that.

NRA won’t defend anyone who got in trouble buying a gun.

But he should have got the gun because those questions suck.
