The citizens clearly want concealed carry. Even the anti-gun state Representative Ken Hunter seems to be half accepting of it.

Law abiding blacks live in the rough neighborhoods, will know who is the good guys and who are the bad guys. The black criminal commits 90 percent of the crime against blacks. Arming law abiding blacks will be a kill zone for black criminals who are not used to having their victims armed.

Judging strictly by crimes committed using firearms, it would seem like blacks have plenty of guns. Is there any instance of a black person being refused the sale of a firearm when they are legally allowed to own one? Go forth, and buy guns.

All good guys should be allowed to own guns. Especially in a high crime neighborhood.

The predators in the black community are the politicians that use thugs to turn out the vote by intimidating their terrified constituents.

poor black folks from having legal guns has failed POOR black /white folks con't afford a gun.
I am by no means poor, but I don't have $300.00 to lay out for a handgun to lay on my bedtable forever.

That was the purpose to begin with. The KKK dems hated blacks having firearms.

Representative Hunter says that because the Black community has more crime than White communities, they have been historically kept from having guns. He's got it backwards. Because the Black community has been historically kept from having guns, they have more crime than White communities.

Gun control just may be racist.
Blacks are killed by handguns.
Politicians want to get rid of assault rifles, not handguns.
Sounds racist to me.

Law-abiding citizens should have the ability to defend themselves, regardless.

This is good news. We deplore inner city crime and dependency and this would be a crack in the machine. Freedom under the 2d amendment is for all of us.

The only way to have civility is to increase the risk of incivility. Give the law-abiding citizens in these black communities more guns. That increases the risk for those criminal gutter snipes to engage in uncivil behavior like taking shots at innocent bank tellers or innocent people on the sidewalk. Why engage in risky behavior that elicits a reaction causing hot lead to enter your heart? Fear of the hot lead makes gutter snipes into choir boys.

my point was that his point isn’t really true if you look who’s actually carrying and shooting guns in chicago.

gun control today is classist, class warfare.

Agreed, but I suspect that the law-abiding citizens don’t care what color their oppressors are.

Sure, I’m okay with laws that ban black Democrats from owning any guns at all.
It’s exactly what they deserve.
