NRA helped blacks defend against KKK.Jaques 15:35, 17 April 2007 (EDT)

not according to their website. Furthermore, should the word "especially" be used in that sentence?Bohdan

now it looks better, thank youBohdan

The NRA cite says nothing about this, infact, it appears Black Codes in several Southern states prohibited Blacks from owning fire arms. [1] RobS 15:47, 17 April 2007 (EDT)

nor is the Klan mentioned on the NRA's official 'about us' history; in fact, all the early activity mentioned was in the North (New York, New Jersey, Ohio). According to the search feature on their site, the only two pages on nra.org that mention ku klux klan are http://www.nraila.org/issues/articles/read.aspx?id=105&issue=011 and http://www.nraila.org/issues/articles/read.aspx?id=16&issue=020 . The first one of those -- an essay complaining about the racism they think Michael Moore accuses them of -- would have been a natural place to mention it, if it were in fact true. --Jtl 23:23, 17 April 2007 (EDT)
