Question of the Day: Does Gun Rights Advocacy Matter?

“By and large, most people don’t give a damn about gun rights,” TTAG commentator ST writes underneath Costas to Gun Rights Advocates: FU and the Horse You Rode In On. “In reading the protests against Bob Costa online, I’ve noticed most of the objections are because he used a sportscasting position as a political soapbox, not because of what he said about gun rights per se. We need to jettison the assumption that gun ownership=gun activism. Most folks see a gun as a tool and don’t get why people like us wail about the smallest regulation proposals.” True dat. Ironically, people who have guns don’t feel they need them. I reckon the gun rights fight is best served by arming and activating the people who don’t have guns but need them. Specifically, African Americans and Hispanics in high-crime urban areas. That would take the wind out of the sails of gun control advocates. Am I wrong?
