Run the Jewels member Killer Mike comes in defense of gun ownership. He has also criticized the National Walkout Day, as well as anti-bullying campaigns in a recent interview.
In 2016, Killer Mike sided with Bernie Sanders on the subject of the Second Amendment.
"I told my kids on the school walkout: 'I love you. If you walk out that school, walk out my house.' We are a gun-owning family. We are a family where my sister farms. We are a family where we'll fish, we'll hunt. But we are not a family that jumps on every single thing an ally of ours does because some stuff we just don't agree with," said the rapper.
Killer Mike Doesn't Agree With Anti-Gun Protests
The rapper also said that he didn't agree with the anti-gun protests, as well as the need for stricter gun control laws.
He also talked about Dana Loesch, the spokesperson of the NRA, who recently said that the tears of white mothers are like ratings for television. Mike said that he agrees with Loesch.
