[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Martin Luther King Jr was killed with a gun.

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.[/quote]

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.[/quote]

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. [/quote]

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.  [/quote]

Go to the big gun show in Chantilly, VA some weekend and see for yourself. It's probably the only place I can think of where black guys in their 20's can walk around with a AR15 slung over their shoulder amid a crowd of 50-something white folks and no one pays them any mind.

So much for your "gun owners are racist" stereotype. [/quote]

Yeah I too find the liberal racist stereotyping quite tiresome. I am Asian and go to the NRA range quite often and it is a very diverse and friendly crowd. If anything the anti gun crowd is overwhelmingly white women and feminized men.[/quote]

I see more diversity at the Chantilly gun shows than i do walking around Clarendon on a Saturday night.  :P 
*im not kidding*[/quote]

So. Much. This. [/quote]

Maybe they should send cops to get some training there so they don't automatically react violently to AA men with guns.[/quote]
