Just in case you ever decide to get a Pistol, you can buy a Hi Point 9MM for around $149.

You can even get a Hi Point .40 or .45 for under $250.

They are a bit heavy, but they shoot well and have a lifetime warranty.

I’m okay with laws that ban black Democrats from owning any guns at all.

This image, which I'm "borrowing" from onyx really states the case in stark, visual terms:

Thanks for that.

Bookmarked!

amen to that. but i’d say it’s a fair bet that there’s more blacks in chicago with guns than anyone else. the dude’s argument falls apart.

it ain’t a race thing. it’s a class/elitist thing. it’s the elite vs all the rest of the peons. the elite have armed security and get exemptions to carry, but they don’t want any of the rest of the lower citizenry to be able to defend themselves.

Lancey:

I've since stumbled across that same image that's a tad bit sharper. This ought to be publicized far and wide. If the lamestream media had any sense at all, it would be on the front page of every newspaper in America:

I think you mean, "If the lamestream media had any integrity". It does not. The entirety of their purpose is to help their Democrat party send America down the toilet. It is what they are.

The Democrat "mainstream" newsrooms got the way they are for a reason - - people who are bitter malcontents by nature gravitate toward socialism and its primary tool, "the news". This is why the Democrat "mainstream" newsrooms are populated by liberals. The old saying, "Misery loves company," is at play here. The fact is, liberals by nature are incapable of true happiness and selfishly want everybody to be as humorless and miserable as they are. Equally so.

“He’s got it backwards. Because the Black community has been historically kept from having guns, they have more crime than White communities.”

I would narrow it even further. Because the Black community has been historically kept from having *legal* guns, they have more crime than White Communities.

I think that John Lott said that inner city urban black women benefited most from being able to carry concealed and legally.
