Well, the vast majority of our non-blatantly "c00nish" black political leaders are hyper-depedently joined at the hip to the democrat party, and have to toe the line to keep their careers. So, I take what they say with a grain of salt. But, I see a lot of people here parroting these talking points, which confuses me and I'm looking for some clarification.

And you're right. As a matter of fact, of the 34 deadliest mass shooters in US history, only 2 were black, and none of them were in the top 21 with victims in the double digits, and neither of them used assault rifles.

Large mass shooting massacres aren't a black community issue in the slightest.

The fukking russians are acting black again

That's true. The VAST majority of gun homicides in our community happen by way of illegal guns, and have little to do with gun law stringency or leniency. The only problem group for legal gun owners in our community is domestic violence offenders, but that holds true for EVERY community, and the vast majority of DV gun homicides are done with handguns. Our people aren't going on mass shooting rampages with huge causalities, So, I don't know why these talking points are being brought up as if this is an issue for us to sell the idea gun control to us.

Most people get a gun and end up killing themselves...

Gun violence is really overrated in this country...

As long as mentally ill or deranged people can't get a gun...and we actually address the inequality in this country...we will be okay...

Only about %4 of Americans experience 'serious mental illness', and they make up about %3 of the violent crimes, which makes them under represented in that regard.

Suicides are a category where you see an over representation of people with serious mental illnesses(%20)

Most health professionals agree that the stigma of mentally ill people committing more gun violence is unfounded.

Serious mental illness + propensity for violence, is what sets off alarms in bg checks.

Most black people just blindly go along with what liberals tell them to believe. And I think a lot of them are afraid of guns and have it in their minds that guns are bad and dangerous.

So, basically "guns are big, bad, scary, and kill babies and stuff!!"

Which, I expect as much from black politicians given that they're livelihood depends on it, but I'm wondering why some many average everyday heads buy into this immature cartoonish line of thinking?

Judging from some of these threads the right wing agents have gotten there talking points and targets to deflect to in order. Pay attention people.

What do/would you say to all of the currently active black grass roots activist groups with boots on the ground that do armed open/conceal carry patrols their communities looking our for innocent women, children, and elderly people in our community to keep them safe from violent crime, act as a front line barrier from WS being able to march through our community unchecked, and provide armed security for peaceful protest around the country(Yes, I can give examples of all of these if need be)?
