Conservative Chided for Echoing Michael Bloomberg on Disarming Blacks

A number of outlets have criticized Randy Pullen, a former Arizona Republican Party Chairman who tweeted on black crime and guns during the Democrat debate.

It was one of quite a few tweeted by Pullen during the Democrat debate.  It simply echoed the prescription put out by the infamous disarmist, Mayor Michael Bloomberg, over seven months ago.

On February 6th, 2015, the former Mayor of New York City said essentially the same thing.   From aspentimes.com:
Bloomberg claimed that 95 percent of murders fall into a specific category: male, minority and between the ages of 15 and 25. Cities need to get guns out of this group’s hands and keep them alive, he said.
 EJ Montini published the tweet from Pullen in azcentral.com:

“Yes black lives matter. The best way to end the slaughter of young black men is to take guns away from blacks as they are the main killers.”

From Montini:


I’ll leave it to you to decide if such a comment is racially insensitive or not.

What of the facts? Is Pullen correct?

Actually, yes.

Montini goes on to say that as most white victims are killed by white murderers, then maybe the idea of disarming blacks should be extended to whites.

That is exactly what Michael Bloomberg wants, and it is the core argument of the disarmists.

The idea of disarming blacks is not new.  It was implemented by the Democrats to keep guns out of the hands of freed slaves in the South after the Civil war.  Much of the history of “gun control” is really the history of racism, designed to disarm blacks, immigrants, Chinese, and other minorities.

When Michael Bloomberg says it, it is not news. Wnen a conservative says it, in a sarcastic tweet, it is news.

I couldn't have said it better. If democrats want gun control, let's start (and finish) with the group committing all the crimes - Democrats.

Actually, more blacks need guns. The problem now is that only the criminal blacks in the cities have them. If every law-abiding adult black person had a gun, and could carry it legally, the violence would drop precipitously.
