Apparently, Mr. Noir and I both believe that it is their 2A right to be
armed.  No Republican racism there.

You didn't watch it, did you?  He covered that.  The Mulford Act was in
response to multiple groups, including at least one that entered the
State Capital (sound familiar?!?), and only one of those groups was black.
The others were white.
