Do you know the origin of that flag?
Ben Franklin wrote a cartoon with snakes in the gardens of the British nobility. His point was they need to watch themselves or we'll plant a bunch of snakes in your grass. It originated from the Colonies desire to free themselves from British Rule. It was used to support our freedom from the British and supported the birth of our nation. The 2nd amendment is the amendment the forefathers supported and wrote into the constitution because the people in the future could/would need to have a means to protect themselves from an oppressive government. It's the 2nd because that's how fucking important it was. It has absolutely nothing to do with the color of someone's skin (which is just one variable of many that people may or may not have and is completely irrelevant as to the makeup of their character. Additionally it is meaningless)
You seem to pass on bad information quite a bit, don't you? Much like a lemming.
I agree it should not have anything to do with the color of ones skin but when the NRA is asked to defend a black man carrying they fall silent.

Dana Loesch explains why the NRA didn't defend Philando Castile
I'll get to the rest shortly. We should note that NO he was not breaking the law when pulled over. He was pulled over for having a "wide set nose".
Every CCW holder is trained what to do when pulled over while carrying a firearm, or otherwise in the presence of a police officer. In my state, if you have one swig of beer, that's enough to make it illegal to carry a firearm even if you are well below the .08 limit where you are legally considered drunk.
The officer reported that the car smelled of marijuana. The suspect reached into his waistband when told not to. The officer defended his life. What do you expect the NRA to do with a guy loaded on pot, reaching for his gun when an officer didn't give him permission to do so?
I'm not going to rehash this. He was pulled over for having a wide set nose. That is an unexusable reason to pull someone over.
Not when that was a characteristic of a recent robbery suspect. All he really pulled him over was to see if that was the man police were looking for.
