I'm also black, and I hear that sentiment all the time. Even my 83-year old (very young at heart and physically agile) aunt says the same thing. Sadly, what I saw in Richmond (as the gun toting 2nd amendment went into the Capitol with weapons of war), it definitely makes you think long and hard. Open season? I don't think so. |

lol!!! me too |

I don’t know what I’ll do. Have no idea. One Trump term has softened my feelings about W. A second term might make me soft on Cheney. I assume I’ll become a political prisoner during his third term. |
I will go on about life as usual, but...
take advantage of the gun laws to get all armed up. After seeing those people in Richmond, shudder, I feel the need to potentially protect myself against armed right wing nut jobs. Hoard cash for the upcoming deregulation induced recession / depression that always happens after a two term republican at this point. I am already noting who among my friends is still a Trump supporter (versus a regular conservative), particularly in case they are encouraged to rat out their liberal friends, Nazi style, in the future. |
Exactly. The funny thing is that once all the minority decide to yes, exercise their rights to legally own and have access to guns, semiautomatics, rifles, silencers, etc, then Trumpsters will want to follow a blue initiative to have better gun control. Scratch that. They’ll simply want to find a way to confiscate them all. It will be unconstitutional, but that is par for the course in their party. Go gramma! |
I’ll be lighting a candle for RBG every day. I will send all my best thoughts and good vibes her way.
That’s all. |
sit back and watch my properties appreciate from amazon, enjoy pretty low taxes, and rest easy. I’ll also be happy that the Dems will control both the Senate and the House.

I will give even more money to GOTV efforts if he 'wins'. I will look forward to another impeachment, with witnesses. |
That is exactly what Dave Chappelle said. I think you and he are on to something. Btw, gramma ain't no fool! ![]() Incisively, Chappelle argues, “Every able-bodied African-American must register for a legal firearm. That’s the only way they’ll change the law.” America will quickly reinterpret the 2nd Amendment. In 1967, after the formation of the Black Panther Party, the Mulford Act, a bill to eliminate Californians’ rights to openly carry weapons was signed into law by Gov. Ronald Reagan. In 1925, African-American physician Ossian Sweet moved into a white neighborhood in Detroit. When a white mob attacked his home, he and friends defended themselves, killing one person and wounding another in the process. Shortly after murder charges against Sweet and his compatriots were dismissed, Michigan’s Legislature granted county governments control over the issuance of gun licenses. |
Yeah, baby! There are plenty of other articles that can be brought forth. |
The high gun crime in places like Baltimore and Philadelphia and Chicago apparently has minimal influence on national gun control..... |
The American elite (read: white people) doesn't care about black-on-black crime. Or, more accurately, poor-on-poor crime - because that's really the story of gun violence in Baltimore, Chicago, and Philly. Seriously. They only time Republicans pretend to care about it is when they try to use it as a wedge issue to bash Democrats. Do you see any conservatives actively working in the inner cities to reduce violence and pull people out of poverty? I don't. |
That's because it's black people mostly shooting other black people. Black people protecting themselves from a white mob with guns = gun control legislation. |
