Same people who are pro-2A and suddenly got a real big problem with people of color owning guns.

They don't like guns or laws. They are fascists. They like privileges. They like having rights and other people they don't like not having rights. They don't care about anything else. The traits their leaders exhibit are more important than the things they say.

They can like guns too. Guns are fun.

allow me to rephrase. They claim that everyone should be able access guns all the time, no matter what. They don't actually believe this. They like the privilege of being able to carry guns and intimidating people they don't think should have rights. They especially hate it when those people pick up guns and warn them to fuck off.

This has nothing to do with their personal enjoyment of guns, which may or may not be genuine or performative.
