“More to the point, what are you doing about preventing violent crime in your own little corner of the world? Your about page indicates that you’re from AZ which has some of the best gun laws in the country and open carry there is common. Do you carry openly, or do you leave your safety up to the benevolence of the local government?”

It is very seldom that I am not carrying. I was carrying before we had the shall issue law in Arizona.

You do not have to convince me on the merits of carrying. I propose that we push for more law abiding black people to carry.

Maybe then they would not feel such a need to respond to peer pressure to not be a snitch.

A majority of black people are not criminals. If we could convince them that they would be treated reasonably fairly by the courts, it would be a big step forward in race relations.

If more of them carried, and it they found that they could not be illegally deprived of that right, maybe we could make some progress.

Now you’re talking some sense. If we were to get even 10% of the population to open carry across the board, violent crime would largely be a thing of the past.

I doubt if blacks ever will trust the justice system under any foreseeable scenario. Too much history and a damn fool drug war to boot. But its not really completely necessary that they do. Give them less reason to have to rely on it and it’ll be an improvement in all of our lives.
