long read, but hear me out...
i agree more black people should be legally and responsibly armed. mainly for the purpose of deterring violence or defending ourselves, our homes and our communities from any threat. i have a ccw and several weapons. i go to the range about twice a month. it's sad that i rarely see another black person learning how to properly use a firearm, yet we're more likely to own one illegally or use a gun against one of our own (and at a much higher rate) than any other race.
i don't agree with organizing militias for the purpose of waging war against the cops. that is not a solution and has failed time and time again. whites have failed at it and so have blacks. an armed black militia going at the cops will only result in legalized slaughter and incarceration of more black men and women. keep in mind police have been acquiring military grade weapons and equipment since the iraq and afghanistan wars have started to wind down. armed battle with the police, swat and alphabet boys would be a slaughter similar to the israelis vs the palestinians. civilians be damned.
i do agree with organizing a group of responsible, educated and organized gun owners that can demonstrate a show of power. they fear that more than anything else and would be a huge deterrent for law enforcement pulling bs. it would also allow us to better police our own communities.
an alternative solution to going to war with the police is infiltrating and taking over / changing the system from within. i know some people don't like the way that sounds, but it has proven to be the most reliable and effective method. our people need to be even more dedicated to education, more involved in the very processese a lot of us sh1t on. like economic representation. local political representation. legal representation. we have to weed out the people in our ranks who are selfish, destructive and don't care about the greater good of our people. if the gangs, pimps, thots, mindless goons, etc don't want to be on board with the process then guess what...they're part of the problem and have to go.
we have to be committed to making better decisions. smart and strong enough to understand that winning small irrelevant battles may not be the key to winning the war or achieving our goals.
the indiscriminate killings of blacks by the police and the passing of laws encouraging vigilantism in areas notorious for prejudice and racism against minorities makes a lot of us angry. i'm all for being passionate about doing something, but it has to be done the right way.
