"Guns are for White People"

Post by HotD »

Coming Up Monday on http://live.huffingtonpost.com/r/segmen ... 40a1000385

Why Aren't Guns Marketed Towards Black People?
If guns are supposed to be used primarily for safety and protection as the NRA would argue, then why are they almost exclusively marketed towards only white people? Is there a place for people of color in gun culture?

Obviously these idiots have never spent any time interacting with members of the gun community nor do they understand "target demographic" when it comes to sales.

You gonna try to market baby bottles and pacifiers to singles over 60 years old? Of course not. An if it seems like the black community is excluded from the target market, They have never seen seen this commercial...
