2. What do you think would have happened
if they were carrying those weapons and went into a bakery and were black?
The issue is the difference between how white people and people of color are treated in this country by the criminal justice system. If the went into a bakery like that, the people in the bakery would have shot them if they'd had a gun, or would have called 911 if not, and the police would have then come and shot them. |

5. i just saw an old 20/20 segment on race
first they had a group of white kids vandalizing a car and a few black kids sleeping in a car. the kids sleeping in the car got more 911 calls than the kids vandalizing the car. no surprise there, at all.

and who knew to dress just as well as he possibly could so he wouldn't be mistaken for a gang member and shot.
I bet he had a trillon photos taken of him in an attempt to prove gun rallys aren't racist pits. One single African American man doesn't change the reality of how differently white and black people with guns are treated - and without guns. |

10. This was taken at a speech by Pres. Obama.
That said, I still think that you're right, black men carrying rifles into a business like that would elicit a quick police response over white people doing so.
Open carry should be banned except in a few instances. |

![]() Man carries assault rifle to Obama protest -- and it's legal
PHOENIX, Arizona (CNN) -- A man toting an assault rifle was among a dozen protesters carrying weapons while demonstrating outside President Obama's speech to veterans on Monday, but no laws were broken. It was the second instance in recent days in which weapons have been seen near presidential events. Video from the protest in Phoenix, Arizona, shows the man standing with other protesters, with the rifle slung over his right shoulder. Phoenix police said authorities monitored about a dozen people carrying weapons while peacefully demonstrating. Sorry about not adding the link to the story. |

79. Is there any possibility that this "cultural problem" we have is going to fix itself?
I know the beloved Dr King said that "The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice” - but really he had no proof and he gave himself a giant pass with "is long" and I have zero faith in a moral universe, the universe is incapable of giving a nanometer of a rat's ass about silly humans on some dismal blue planet in the middle of nowhere.
