These Terrified Black Americans Are Packing Heat
Daily Beast ^ | June 8, 2020 | David Dent

In the shadows of news coverage of protests nationwide, people like Williams live with the sometimes painful challenges of raising African-American children in a hostile climate. Many parents like her see learning how to use guns safely as one of the best options to protect their families. Williams, who voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016, says she is troubled watching what looks like a rise in open white supremacy and Americans erupting in anger over politics. She says she tries her best not to discuss Trump, politics, “and watches her back everywhere” to avoid giving anyone a reason

Where is she looking where she sees "white anger"? Wherever I look all I see are raise-fisted BLM activists looting and rioting and destroying police cars in the name of "justice".

She’ll see white anger if the rioters and protesters venture into suburban neighborhoods. And yeah, there is a lot of “heat packing” going on there.

“...she is troubled watching what looks like a rise in open white supremacy...”

That should be the least of this specimen’s worries.

The current riots and crime ensure that rural America will not trust any blacks for a long time. Note to white liberals: your Prius/Subaru/Volvo tell us who you are too. Don’t expect good (or any) service in rural diners and stay away from truck stops.

Now we are watching all of you as our enemy.

Actions have consequences in rural America.

Where does this happen? I live in the Deep South, and black have been pretty much left alone for decades. Perhaps in Democrat run cities?

Like almost everything liberals profess to support, their actions end up hurting the very people they claim it will help...

The entire disband or defund the police movement will do nothing to help black Americans, it will be catastrophic for the black community...

You pull the police out of poor neighborhoods who are predominately black, the violence will take off and spin out of control...

Chicago is a prime example, they haven’t defunded the police but they have changed their tactics to the point where the police are not constantly in the Black American neighborhoods, the results speak for themselves, dozens of Black American killed every month with no let up in sight....

Any middle class white or black that can will move out of any city that goes down the road of defunding the police....leaving nothing but those who can’t defend themselves behind...

There is no White Supremacy. There is White Guilt and White Submission, as seen in the people washing the feet of Blacks and kneeling down in abject subjugation before their new masters.

Oh, the huge manatee.
We so-called “white supremacists” are, in fact, the ones defending this person’s Second Amendment rights-— and First, too, regardless how politically incorrect her opinions might be.

Her SJW “allies” are the ones who want to take away her gun, tear up the Constitution, replace it with Mao’s Little Red Book, & make her kneel in submission.

I’ve never oppressed anyone in my life.

But I’m starting to see the upside of it.

The only White supremacists she needs to worry about are liberal White supremacist Democrats. They’re the ones who have been screwing up Black lives since the very beginning of our country! She and so many Blacks have “kneeled” for far too long at the altar of liberalism! Get a clue lady!

As a second amendment supporter, I have zero problem with black firearm ownership. Good for them, and more power to them.

This author sounds like a character out of DC Comics.

With the Libs advocating a current emotional program of 'defund the police',
we are looking at counting on the good nature of others.
There will be no protection for person or property,
especially from the 'give me dats'.
Police are the protection of civilization as we know it,
and the only protection from the envy of others.
Do you want to see the value on human life first hand : then go to Chicago.
It relegates the citizenry to submission to those armed, and in power.

It’s pretty sad when defending yourself against black racial violence is considered “white supremacy”.

If they pass the tipping point, our self defense will go on the offense.
