While he continueds to support the idea of black gun ownership, he apologized repeatedly if the interview made it seem like the he was not an ally or an advocate for the march or the movement that has grown up around it. 。
"My interview with an organization that we all don't agree with, was supposed to be something that continued the conversation...," Killer Mike said in the videos. "It should never have been used in contrast to your march, and I think it's wrong. To the young people who worked tirelessly to organize, I'm sorry adults chose to do this." 。
