The hosts contrast the media and police treatment of the armed Bundy ranch protesters with the 2016 police shooting of Philando Castile. They criticize the NRA for its relative silence on the Castile case, despite him being a law-abiding concealed carrier who followed protocol during a traffic stop.
The NRA's failure to follow up on the Philando Castile investigation is attributed to a business calculation to avoid upsetting its law enforcement membership base. The hosts argue the NRA primarily represents gun manufacturers and lobbyists rather than the rights of all individual gun owners.
Sean King claims to have raised over $34.5 million for various charities and families affected by police violence, supported by a review board including Tamika Mallory and Lee Merritt. Families of victims such as Botham Jean and Philando Castile have publicly vouched for King's advocacy and personal support. Critics compare his role to traditional figures like Al Sharpton, noting his ability to mobilize massive financial resources quickly.
Larry Elder questions why Black Lives Matter focuses on police shootings rather than the higher rates of black-on-black crime. Mo views this as a deflection, pointing out that the NRA and conservative pundits remained silent when Philando Castile, a legal gun owner, was killed by police. They also discuss the media's refusal to investigate the role of SSRIs and mental health in police violence due to Big Pharma advertising.
