Exactly. The VA organizers have really screwed up.

So I guess that's why the DC Women's March only had like 1,200 people, huh? Because the DC organizers were smart enough to keep women from other places out, because it was a local DC issue.

Smart.

Did Lee own slaves??

I’m looking at pictures and videos of the self proclaimed militias congregating in Richmond. These are just rural gangs. They even have gang affiliation names, the only difference is they call themselves “militias”. If these were urban African Americans they would be arrested

What a ridiculous bunch of idiots.

Yes, he sure did.

Lee’s cruelty as a slavemaster was not confined to physical punishment. In Reading the Man, the historian Elizabeth Brown Pryor’s portrait of Lee through his writings, Pryor writes that “Lee ruptured the Washington and Custis tradition of respecting slave families,” by hiring them off to other plantations, and that “by 1860 he had broken up every family but one on the estate, some of whom had been together since Mount Vernon days.” The separation of slave families was one of the most unfathomably devastating aspects of slavery, and Pryor wrote that Lee’s slaves regarded him as “the worst man I ever see.”

Lee’s heavy hand on the Arlington plantation, Pryor writes, nearly led to a slave revolt, in part because the enslaved had been expected to be freed upon their previous master’s death, and Lee had engaged in a dubious legal interpretation of his will in order to keep them as his property, one that lasted until a Virginia court forced him to free them.

When two of his slaves escaped and were recaptured, Lee either beat them himself or ordered the overseer to "lay it on well." Wesley Norris, one of the slaves who was whipped, recalled that “not satisfied with simply lacerating our naked flesh, Gen. Lee then ordered the overseer to thoroughly wash our backs with brine, which was done.”

Why hold a pro-gun rally *on* MLK Day?

Instead of reflecting on his great work and words we will be worried about more gun violence. It’s disrespectful at a minimum. It’s blatant hate & racism at worst.

Disgusting.

Lol is this your first time hearing about lobby day? I know you hate rights, so I guess we can add the right to assembly to your list of evil.

Holding a pro-gun rally on MLK Day is disgusting. That’s probably a bigger draw to the white supremacists than the gun rights. Have fun with your very fine friends.

Imagine if all those protesters were black and marching in camouflage with guns. Imagine the conservative heads that would explode at seeing pictures of armed black dudes. Imagine the reaction on Fox News.

Photo taken back when the GOP supported gun control. Wonder what the difference was?

Meanwhile, today in 2020, so-called “progressives” have rallied around a governor who on multiple occasions dressed in black face and may have worn Klan robes (he “can’t remember”).

Mmmmm, no. You're projecting your own racism.

I'm in favor of everyone being armed. white, black, brown, red, yellow, olive, albino, rainbow, doesn't matter. I want everyone able to protect themselves, not just from ordinary petty criminals, but from ordinary petty dictators.

That's what y'all don't understand about the gun culture. We don't care who you are - if you understand the right to be armed, then we're just brothers from other mothers.

What about sex offenders and other criminals? Should they have guns?

This may be you - let's for the sake of argument accept that it accurately reflects your beliefs.

Are you asserting that this is true for all, or even a majority, of the the people marchng today, and/or conservatives? That they want every AA male to own and carry a firearm?

If you really claim that, you are either dangerously naive or transparently disingenuous. Only you know which.
