I liked it when Hunter Biden’s second amendment rights were being infringed so the NRA (being completely apolitical like always) backed him.
Just like they supported Philando Castile

In this case, it means that the “independent” expert claiming that guns are frequently used in self-defense is actually paid by them. It’s a common theme when a product is really harmful.

Another example of political groups using money to make whatever conclusion that fits their agenda. Add this to the fact it’s illegal to have government lead or government data for comprehensive gun death studies means we’re all in the dark about the real affect.
