    Brilliant, must-read piece from @AdamSerwer. When you are Black in America, and wrongly get shot by the police, conservatives say you should've had a gun. When you have a gun and gun shot by police, they fault you for being armed. Damned either way.https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2018/09/the-nras-catch-22-for-black-men-shot-by-police/570124/ …

        You should check out the number of Black-owned gun ownership clubs that are harassed by members of the NRA.

        This is why I found Killer Mike’s defense of the NRA so troublesome. The NRA doesn’t care about black people owning guns. They’d rather they don’t.

        This is somthing I have suspected for a while. If the second ammendment is for all, what grounds do they have for denying for others?

        And when you protest this injustice by taking a knee - you are offending our troops... Land of the free? Not at the moment it isn't

        What about the black men shot by black men? Do those lives matter? Why don't you EVER mention them? Is that a WAY bigger problem statistically?

        It’s not a “bigger” problem because every citizen is supposed to be under the trusted protection of law enforcement which is a public service. Everyone should be able to trust the police, who are public servants after all.
