My understanding is that the largest demographic of attendees of CC classes in the Chicago area is older black males who are fed up with both the gangbangers and the Chicago PD.

Some weekends they only have 4 killed and 46 wounded.
I’m sure training would improve that.

Second Amendment should be another issue that Trump promotes in his campaigning in the black community.

“Some weekends they only have 4 killed and 46 wounded.”

Give them some range time and they could double those numbers EASY !!!.

Alt-black. Nice ;)
It’s actually fitting, as opposed to alt-right.
Pray America’s good and righteous black men are finally arising for the sake of their brothers and sisters.

A huge impact could be made with a relatively small amount of money. Take a poor neighborhood. Figure out which households can legally have a gun, and which of them *want* a gun. Just guessing, say 1 in 4 households.

Buy a whole bunch of .22LR revolvers, cheap, shoot for $125 each. Then engrave each one with “Property of (organization). Reward if returned.” Then a box of bullets. Total cost about $150 each.

For just $20,000, you could get about 130 such guns, engraving, and bullets. At 1 for every 4 households, this would randomly cover 540 households.

This is less than the pay of a single cop for a single year.

Feminists whine that 1 in 5 college students are raped. In reality, their rape rate is much lower than that of poor neighborhood minorities. Those black women are the most likely to be raped.

This person is wasting their time. Thugs don’t care about laws and amendments, only care about their hate. I’ll leave it to that.
