I totally agree. If they advance on you, cut them down.

If he had pulled out a .45 and taken out several of his attackers, how do you suppose the "authorities" would have responded? Right. Aided and abetted by the race-baiting media.

But law-abiding citizens in Baltimore - white or black - can't easily carry guns, can they? Only the criminal class has such liberties. And that is a major reason why our cities are turning into war zones.

My city is much, much safer than Baltimore, largely because it is not run by crooks, but also because many of us are packing heat, legally. I could aver that Manchester is 90% white, but that is beside the point. Criminal behavior thrives where law-abiding citizens are practically forbidden from self-defense and the "authorities" protect serial miscreants in the interest of a misplaced social solidarity. As though blacks aren't victims too - which they most certainly are.
