Gun ownership among Black Americans is soaring https://t.co/eb8ULoz4Ag pic.twitter.com/OyFTYLMXrK

Ignore the picture, that is The Hill race batting again.
No shit the black community is arming up. A handful of black communists and an army of white Leftist allies pretty much got politicians and the police to abandon the black community, and QED the black community is suffering from a crime wave like it’s the early 90s again.
Miguel and I have covered this quite a bit.
The interesting part is in the replies:
This tweet needs to an include a trigger warning for republicans.

Suddenly, conservatives feel a disturbance in the force.

Incoming white/republican support for gun control
— AntiFa Nexus (BLM TLM) (@EndlessNexus) April 5, 2021
Watch the GOP introduce gun control legislation this week.

It’s the only way to get republicans behind common sense gun laws.

I feel some Republican support for gun control coming soon

Republicans are about to become big fans of gun control.

This was just a drop in the bucket, it went on like this for a while.
Every single one of these people is a fucking racist. They hate the idea of black people owning guns but can’t come out and say it, so instead, they put that racist bullshit on the Right.
Nope.
Are you black, are you a law-abiding citizen, and do you want a gun to protect yourself?
Good. Buy one and enjoy the freedom and self-reliance.
Also, take note of what Progressives really think about you and your exercising of your Constitutnially protected civil liberties.
As soon as I read that, I knew the comments were coming. Every. Single. Time. After Pulse, the “gun nuts” not only supported gun ownership in the LGBTQ+ community, but I personally know instructors who volunteered their time to teach people how to use them safely. After a shooting in a predominantly black church, I knew white CWL holders who volunteered to stand guard outside in case there were copycats. What part of shall not be infringed do these people not understand? We believe in the 2A, and that has nothing whatsoever to do with race, creed, gender, or sexual preference. But they cannot except that their own stupid narrative is wrong, so they continue to make these comments. I wish people would open their eyes to see where the real bigotry lies.
Er, accept. I need more coffee. And an editor.
Best thing about auto-correct now days. You usually do have somebody else to blame for your mistakes; even if you don’t however, nobody knows the difference.
If I did Twitter, which I do not, I would simply reply to these wacko tweets by posting a link to the Operation Blazing Sword page.
Or Black Guns Matter, that one is particularly good given its name and who runs it.
Morning coffee. Gun ownership among black American’s soaring. Sounds good, hope I get to shoot with some of em and they come to the local matches. Sip. Next story.
If these people projected any harder we could put em in lifeboats in the pacific to keep the Chinese away.
Remember, the democrat party is the party of Woodrow Wilson, the Klan, Jim Crow, and gun control designed to keep Blacks from defending themselves.
Now they’re the party of Joe “Racial Jungle” Biden, woke academics selling KKK beliefs as “Critical Race Theory”, BIPOC Safe Spaces, and gun control designed to keep Blacks from defending themselves.
Nothing has changed.
I’m an RSO at a local range and the black shooters we get here are every bit as well behaved and friendly as the other ethnicities.
It was Teddy Kennedy (D-MA) who pushed wholesale disarmament for fear of Black Panthers with guns.
Dint do nuffins.
Doesn’t mean squat
I see far more post by Wokers like this, saying that the Right is going to freak out and support gun control now than actual post from the Right freaking out and demanding more gun control now.
