The NRA's Embrace of the Specific Legal Interpretation of the Second Amendment

The NRA's embrace of the specific legal interpretation does not occur in a vacuum. While Dowlet's lawyers are making their case, the NRA is carrying out mass mailing campaigns and publishing magazines that reach millions of people. The tactical turn in US gun culture occurs because it occurs alongside the militarization of the police and these kind of Hollywood valorization of the militarisation of police. This has blurred the boundary between domestic and foreign conflict,. brought the use of exceptional police powers into nearly every town and turned militarized border security into a ubiquitous mechanization of radicalization.
