If you are a black man in America, exercising your constitutional right to keep and bear arms can be fatal. You might think the National Rifle Association and its amen chorus would be outraged, but apparently they believe Second Amendment rights are for whites only.

In reaching that conclusion I am accepting, for the sake of argument, the account given by the Charlotte police of how they came to fatally shoot Keith Lamont Scott on Tuesday. Scott’s killing prompted two nights of violent protests that led North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory ® to declare a state of emergency. Last Friday, police in Tulsa shot and killed Terence Crutcher — an unarmed black man — and the two incidents gave tragic new impetus to the Black Lives Matter movement.

My Comments: These are the same people who tell me I shouldn’t own a gun because I’m Black and as a result can’t control my inherent violent tendencies, same people who wanted to make cheap guns (Saturday night specials) illegal so poor black people could’ tad ford to own guns. Same people who think we don’t have an individual right to own guns for protection while they live in gated communities with guards. The same people who have been the leaders for decades of some of Americas most broken cities and allow them to stay that way to keep the people in those communities dependent on their leadership. The same people who were willing to let a black single parent woman who bought a gun after being robbed twice go to jail on a felony because she made a mistake didn’t know her permit wasn’t good in a neighboring city just to make an example out of her and only dropped the charges after the NRA made such a big fuss about it. And you want to talk about equal gun rights? This whole your black so let me tell you how inferior you are in this country so I can manipulate your emotional response to vote against your self interest but help keep me in office is starting to get real disrespectful.
