It’s fairly straight forward, Republicans have traditionally been anti gun control. But when push came to shove they abandoned that position when it meant allowing black men to be armed.

That said the GOP was much less strident in their gun worship back then generally.

Name one gun control measure opposed by CA Republican assembly members or senators that term. One.

CA Republicans of that era were not anti gun control.
