We must close the loophole allowing open carry of loaded assault rifles and fight gun extremism across America. Donald Trump is not the leader for that job. Help us take on the NRA, its #1 ally — Donald Trump, and their extreme "guns everywhere” agenda.
John — on Monday, a crowd gathered in downtown Albuquerque to protest a controversial statue depicting a conquistador. A New Mexico-based militia group showed up open carrying guns to "protect the statue." Instead, this group allegedly agitated and intimidated protestors.
Right-wing militias, the NRA, and Donald Trump continue to fan the flames of racism and white supremacy that will only lead to more violent incidents. We're organizing in every state in the country to defeat gun extremism and Donald Trump's extreme agenda. Donate today to strengthen our fight against the NRA and Donald Trump's extreme "guns everywhere" agenda.

There has been an alarming trend during the protests against police violence — groups of white men with guns who show up with their own agendas. These militia groups are the most dangerous people at the protests. Armed, gun rights extremists are seemingly using protests as opportunities to openly display military-style firearms to incite fear, suppress civil discourse, and threaten public safety. Fuel our fight against gun extremism and the NRA's dangerous "guns everywhere" agenda today.
