re: And show me a photo of one black NRA member.

here is the article about NRA assisting african americans in times when KKK ruled south and about african american NRA members.

keepandbeararms.com

"The connection with the NRA might surprise some people who portray the organization as a haven for racist rednecks. Former NRA Executive Director Tanya Metaksa spoke with Williams before his death. She recalls, "He was very proud of being an NRA member and that the NRA sanctioned his club without question."

The civil rights organizations of today bear little resemblance to the deadly serious armed activists of Monroe. African-American leaders generally support the liberal white line that guns are evil and have no place in modern society. On the other hand, small numbers of responsible black gun owners continue to honor their heritage by practicing their marksmanship and joining gun rights organizations. The tradition of the black gun club still lives on in the Tenth Cavalry Gun club, led by Ken Blanchard in Prince Georges County, Maryland."


re: If they're so law-abiding, why do a lot of them convert their weapons to full auto?

trust you me that auto is for pure fun on shooting range. A series of blasts from semi-auto ak74/104 is more than sufficient to put fear in anyone.
