I won't vouch for the NRA under any circumstances, but yes, gun control in Arnerica (at least) has a lot of racist history.

And today it is, in addition to anything else it may be, one more tool of a racist criminal justice system, from enforcement to sentencing to treatment throughout.

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the genocide of indigenous peoples and the putting down of slave revolts, the right of the settler crakkkers to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
