I would like to see more diversification in the NRA, at the range, and here on TFL. It seems odd to me that any group who has experience oppression first hand would not see the value in the right to bear arms. An example I can think of, though my facts may be skewed, is of the Mormons. I've been told, and I'm sure I will be corrected if I'm way off base, that the Mormons experienced persecution during the "Utah War". Because of this, the members of the church have been encouraged to bear arms should the need to protect themselves and their ways ever arise.
Regardless, having diversity among us would only help us shed the elitist, white, extremist, etc. persona that many non-gunners have of us.
