ABC legal analyst Sunny Hostin said Friday on ABC’s “The View” she believed that the Second Amendment “was designed to protect slavery” by empowering local militia groups to “put down slave revolts.”
Hostin said, “If you look at the history of the NRA for decades, the NRA has pushed legislation that not only supported a lot of gun ownership and the proliferation of guns but stifled the study and spread of information right, about the causes of gun violence. And when we talk about the culture of guns in this country, I’m reading an incredible book called ‘The Second’ by professor Carol Anderson. And she describes that the constitutional — the Second Amendment really was the right to bear arms was designed to protect slavery, right, because they wanted — our Founding Fathers and others, they wanted to be able to empower a local militia group to basically put down slave revolts and protect plantation owners.”
She added, “Because of the origins of the Second Amendment many and because of the NRA, I think we’re seeing this proliferation of guns and gun ownership. But I will say that gun ownership is on the rise, of course, in this country, but the biggest gun ownership on the rise is among African-Americans. It’s up 58.2 percent. In large part, when they are questioned, they’re talking about white supremacy, they’re talking about the pandemic, and they’re talking about police violence. They want to be able to protect themselves. So this is not about a rise in crime in the streets. This is about people feeling unsafe, black Americans.”

Could free blacks own guns?
SFC. S**t-filled cranium?
In most slave states, including Virginia up to the Nat Turner rebellion, slave were allowed to own firearms and hunt to supplement their diet (unlike the British gentry who could disarm their tenants to prevent them from poaching HIS game).
The only "design" for the second Amendment was to protect the peoples' inherent right from government interference in the exercise of that right.
I think so.

So blacks buy more guns because of white supremecy, which explains why blacks are shooting blacks in Sh!tcago. Is the critera for being a female liberal an IQ lower than the size of their dumb ass?
Stupid Cucking Funt.
Oh, I see I misspelled it. But there is no edit feature here...
Thinking a logical line of reasoning can be made up for almost any insanity.
I think they would have said so if it were true.
We’re not supposed to notice that part. Blacks arming themselves against Klan violence did more to protect them than tons of federal laws ever did. Untold history the left hopes nobody researches.
Andrew Jackson had slaves who had firearms for hunting.
