“keep them alive.” so they can commit more crimes
They used to have a name for this sort of thing. It was called "racial discrimination". There was whole a movement all about it way back then.
Bloomberg wants a return to the SLAVE and BLACK CODES?
An idiotic statement.
LEGAL gun ownership, even by “Young Minority Males”, has never been the problem.
It’s the ILLEGAL weapons that have always been the problem, and new “Gun Laws” aren’t going to a damn thing to stop it.
Oh, ya mean they possess them legally????
Yes, a law preventing them from owning firearms will work. More laws are always the solution to everything. We certainly don’t have enough on the books. Utopia is just around the corner with a few more laws.
Of course, the laws will have to be expanded to include epees and dogs...
The Racist Roots of Gun Control
https://www.firearmsandliberty.com/cramer.racism.html
Racist arms laws predate the establishment of the United States. Starting in 1751, the French Black Code required Louisiana colonists to stop any blacks, and if necessary, beat “any black carrying any potential weapon, such as a cane.” If a black refused to stop on demand, and was on horseback, the colonist was authorized to “shoot to kill.”
In the sixteenth century the colony of New Spain, terrified of black slave revolts, prohibited all blacks, free and slave, from carrying arms.
In the Haitian Revolution of the 1790s, the slave population successfully threw off their French masters, but the Revolution degenerated into a race war, aggravating existing fears in the French Louisiana colony, and among whites in the slave states of the United States. When the first U. S. official arrived in New Orleans in 1803 to take charge of this new American possession, the planters sought to have the existing free black militia disarmed, and otherwise exclude “free blacks from positions in which they were required to bear arms,” including such non-military functions as slave-catching crews.
The New Orleans city government also stopped whites from teaching fencing to free blacks, and then, when free blacks sought to teach fencing, similarly prohibited their efforts as well.
The perception that free blacks were sympathetic to the plight of their enslaved brothers, and the dangerous example that “a Negro could be free” also caused the slave states to pass laws designed to disarm all blacks, both slave and free. Unlike the gun control laws passed after the Civil War, these antebellum statutes were for blacks alone.
In Maryland, these prohibitions went so far as to prohibit free blacks from owning dogs without a license, and authorizing any white to kill an unlicensed dog owned by a free black, for fear that blacks would use dogs as weapons. Mississippi went further, and prohibited any ownership of a dog by a black person.
The Constitution is meaningless to these people.
I guarantee that if leftists over get an absolute lock on power in the US the first group to feel their fury will be blacks. The left is about power and if they no longer need the minority vote they will savage them to lock in support from the majority.
To all you marxist blacks that troll this site please look at how socialists from Hitler to Stalin treated the the very Jews that invented Marxism/communism/socialism and helped bring it about.
“My brother’s keeper”
Only Bamster would quote history’s first murderer to make a name for an initiative.
Dear Nanny Doomturd,
Criminals do not use guns registered to them that they bought in the store, you MORON!
Banning any category of people from possession of handguns or any guns does not affect whether or not such people will obtain or use use guns in crime. No one should be legally banned from possession of any weapon who is not legally incarcerated under institutional control. That is the only exception the Constitution makes to “shall not be infringed” under the involuntary servitude provision of the Thirteenth Amendment.
Scratch a liberal and find a racist racist. Works every time.
since when has it been legal for 15-20 year old's to own a handgun???He inadvertently let the truth slip out. He will be condemned for it.
MY alternative plan would be to offer to loan firearms (along with safe storage containers), as well as concealed carry licenses, to ALL adults (regardless of ethnicity) who have an established work history,at least a high school degree, and no arrests or convictions more serious than a traffic ticket who live in crime-ridden neighborhoods. Terms of the loan include attending (and successfully completing) firearms training classes, and being financially responsible for the loaned firearm, having to show the loaned firearm at required annual refresher courses.
Liberals, by their own admission have no principles, and reality itself is malleable and plastic. If I can ban a “young minority” from gun ownership can we also ban them from voting or posting on the internet?
The told me that if I voted for Romney that government would bring back Jim Crow and segregation, and they were right!
SYG, Castle Doctrine and other self defense laws have roots in the push back against Jim Crow laws. Yet today's “black leaders” line up to help the Progressives destroy all of the progress made to secure black families.
