Shaun King Was Fired From Job At Morehouse College Because He Brandished A Gun
Daily Caller ^ | 12/6/15 | Chuck Ross

Black Lives Matter activist and New York Daily News columnist Shaun King recently went on an anti-gun Twitter tirade in which he asserted that white men enjoy holding firearms because they have “small penises” and “low sex drive.”

But as King himself wrote in his self-help book, “100 Life Goals,” he was once forced to resign from his job at his alma mater, Morehouse College, the historically-black institution attended by Martin Luther King Jr., for brandishing a gun while trying to drive his car through a crowded campus block party.

King, who wrote an article on Tuesday calling Donald Trump a Nazi, describes the scene in his book. It was 2006 and King and his wife and two children lived in a dorm on campus while he worked as a resident director.

King writes (emphasis added):

One day I was leaving the campus in our car on my way to a Bible study. Little did I know that a block party was being hosted in the middle of the campus, and I had to drive through it to leave. As I slowly drove the car into the crowd, one guy banged his hand on the hood and started jawing at me. I showed my work ID, thinking he was a student, but he didn’t care. It seemed like a lot of the crowd was made up of people who shouldn’t have been on campus. At that moment, another guy reached his hand into the car window as if to grab me, but I couldn’t push the car forward because of the crowd. At that point, I made a decision that got me out of the raucous crowd but cost me my job in the process. Looking at the young man next to my window, I put my handgun (legally owned) on the dash of my car. Quickly, he took his hand out of the window, the guy banging on the hood moved away, the crowd cleared out, and I drove on through.

King goes on to write that after he made his way through the crowd he called campus police to report the incident. He wrote that “looking back on it now,” he should have called police to help disperse the crowd rather than “acting like Clint Eastwood over the whole incident.”

King, who now covers police brutality and racial justice issues for the Daily News, was fired for his handling of the affair.

“While I didn’t break any laws, it was far from my best moment as a leader at Morehouse,” he writes. “I was asked to resign a few weeks later. I lost my income, and we lost our home. It was a mess all around.”

But despite his own past reliance on guns, King went on Twitter after last week’s terrorist attacks in San Bernardino to make racial comments about what drives some white men to enjoy owning and shooting them.

In one tweet, King claimed that the “white male obsession” with guns is “compensation for small penises & low sex drive.” In another, the former pastor claimed that white men shoot “big black guns” because it gives them a “racial-psychosexual high.”

Isn’t Shaun King the “black activist” who is actually white?

It’s odd. I am a white boy, and I have been around firearms since I was a tot, and yet, somehow, I have never been compelled to whip it out and show everyone ... to flop that big thing up on the dashboard and watch people get out of my way.

Sounds like he is something of a “Ma Dik!” sort of guy ...

Most people who come upon a festive block party while en route to a so-called "Bible Study" simply say hello, smile, and enjoy a tasty burger with the hosts.

So how do I explain to my wife that her obsession with her gun, her pink gun, is because of penis envy. And, why is it that only liberals equate guns with sex organs. That’s all they write about when complaining about guns. What’s up with that? Are they not getting enough? Maybe that is why they are all on edge.

Shaun King...why not return your car to the garage and cancel your plans of going to bible study?
What kind of maniac escalates the issue by waving a gun around when he could have just gone back home?

It sounds to me like it’s King who is the Nazi. A hypocrite Nazi at that.

He claims his dad was black, but was challenged to prove it via a dna test and last I heard he didn't entertain taking one even with the $10,000 reward if proven not black.

Going by memory here, so check please before repeating.

More proof that liberals shouldn’t be allowed to possess firearms.

If Shaun King admitted that “he is the proud owner of a micropenis”, does that mean that he commits “microaggression” with it?

Curious minds actually don’t want to know until he is arrested on a rape charge.

Is this Shaun King the fake black guy? How much longer is he going to milk this?

And, no, I’m not talking about his gun.

Thanks. It’s not something that comes up often, so I’ll just trust my memory and yours.

If he’s gonna tie small white penises to love of guns, I’d love to see how he ties big black penises to killing other blacks and brutalizing both white and black women - not to mention a penchant for “fatherhood via absence”.

So, is this a microagression?

How does one microagress a micropenis?

Is it micro-rape? And is that “rape-rape”?
