Democrats' Negro Disarmament Program Hits a Snag

Police officers in Seattle, Washington held their first gun buyback program in 20 years this weekend, underneath interstate 5, and soon found that private gun collectors were working the large crowd as little makeshift gun shows began dotting the parking lot and sidewalks. Some even had "cash for guns" signs prominently displayed.Gun Buyback Goes Bad

Police stood in awe as gun enthusiasts and collectors waved wads of cash for the guns being held by those standing in line for the buyback program.

People that had arrived to trade in their weapons for $100 or $200 BuyBack gift cards($100 for handguns, shotguns and rifles, and $200 for assault weapons) soon realized that gun collectors were there and paying top dollar for collectible firearms. So, as the line for the chump cards got longer and longer people began to jump ship and head over to the dealers.

John Diaz, Seattles Police Chief, wasn't pleased with the turn of events stating "I'd prefer they wouldn't sell them," but admitted it's perfectly legal for private individuals to buy and sell guns, FOR NOW. Mayor Mike McGinn said at a news conference the private transactions are a loophole that needs to be closed. "There's no background checks, and some (guns) could be exchanged on the streets that shouldn't be in circulation."

But Schuyler Taylor, a previous gun retailer attending the event in hopes of buying weapons, asked "Why not offer them cash versus a gift card? I'm still taking the guns off the streets; they're just going in my safe."

People were reportedly, at one point, jumping out of vehicles whilst sitting in traffic – making on the spot deals with the gun dealers....

http://www.independencedeclaration.org/2013/01/28/seattle-gun-buyback-gets-jacked-turns-into-a-damn-gun-show-lol/

This is so damned funny. And this was in the liberal city of Seattle.

Actually, Big Ballad Singer, as has been sourced on another thread, less than 15% of the homicides are gang related...

Actually (part 2) the CDC was in the middle of a research project on gun violence a few years back and the early reports (which were on their way to becoming public but halted by the NRA leaning heavily on Congress people) were going say something like this: You are _____ (between 22 and 43) times more likely to be shot if there is a gun in your house than if there isn't!!! That's pretty astounding but...

...if we are talking about education and if those statistics are accurate then it would seem logical that folks would make the decision to not have the gun in the house, right???

As for this idea that the push is to disarm blacks??? As I have pointed out earlier, it ain't blacks we are seeing on the nightly news as being the folks lined up to buy guns at the local gun shop... This is all NRA race baiting fear marketing... BTW, on out news station last night they showed a gun shop that had sold out of every gun it had... There was not a single gun of any description left on the wall or show cases... Not one!!! Guess the NRA is loving all this attention...

Stringsinger, you said:

"...semi-automatic weapons which are used mainly by white idiots."

I think you're forgetting all the drug-dealing dirtbags in the ghettos who carry around Tec-9 and other auto- and semi-auto weapons. Sure, there are a lot of 9-mm and other handguns, but there are PLENTY of AK-47s and other assault weapons among the blacks in the projects. The gang-bangers want to be able to do the most damage they can when they raid each other.

IMHO, the average private citizen should be allowed ONE firearm in their home for protection, if that much. We have police departments to protect our neighborhoods, after all, and in over 20 years of living on my own, I have NEVER had a fear of someone breaking in. I do not own a gun, and I don't need to. I choose to live in areas where other people and I largely share social and ideological beliefs, thus greatly reducing the threat of crime.

Most of the gun violence in the US can be attributed, IMHO, to the intrusion of ignorant belief systems into otherwise normal society.

No one in my neighborhood glorifies the drug-dealing shit who masquerade as "rap artists", so I have little to fear over whether the inevitable gang- and drug-related violent activity will surface around my children.

Simply put, if one were to profile the VAST majority of those who were/are guilty of gun violence, one would discover the music, language, ideologies and separatist/dominionist idiocies of the ignorant thug.

The day I drive down a street in my neighborhood and see people reading Tolstoy and blasting Bach from their car-audio earth-shaker systems while they brandish their assault weapons is the day I move to New Zealand or somewhere ;)

Even those in "polite" society who fall into the world of drug addiction and/or gang violence NEVER find themselves falling into a BETTER class of people; the shitty lifestyle breeds the need for the violence.

Guns belong in the hands of the MILITIA and those sworn to defend our freedoms locally. Our first line of defense at home is not a gun, it's education and vigilance against ignorance.

As a complete outside observer with no axe to grind one way or the other, it would seem to me that keeping guns away from any group who are "five times more likely to have criminal records" is an eminently sensible thing to do.

Wanna know a secret about background checks? They don't really keep anyone from buying guns. They just push the transactions onto the black market. Whether Democrats (or Republicans, or Whigs, or members of The Flat Earth Society) want to disarm blacks is irrelevant. They aren't disarming them. Any black person who wants a gun can get a gun. Period.

Bullshit. You're speaking for all black people now? Typical liberal arrogance.

Blacks don't buy guns in shops because they already can't pass the background checks. The new laws would just make that worse.

All the blacks I know who are heads of households have guns. Your Uncle Tomming of a group of people is insulting. And the argument that "blacks don't care about guns anyway, so new gun laws won't hurt them" is mind-numbingly racist.

Gun restriction laws have historically been used to keep guns out of the hands of minorities (see article referenced in first post of thread).

This new wave of gun laws will require "background checks" and deny guns to criminals.

Percentage wise, blacks are five times more likely to have criminal records than whites.

Therefore....

This Democratic crap about registering guns is just more of their backdoor racism.

I would not say Democrats "want" to disarm blacks, but the little hidden secret is that what today is known as "gun control" started in the reconstruction South and extended into the Jim Crow era as a way to keep firearms out of the hands of the newly freed slaves and keep them subjected as inferior to the white population, and that submission was enforced by the KKK.
Had southern blacks been armed I suspect there would have been a lot fewer lynchings.

""I think blacks should be afforded the same access to guns as whites. Democrats need to get their racist anti-gun mania under control.""

I don't think there's any law preventing black Americans from buying and keeping guns, is there?

I think what stops blacks from lining up at gun shops and gun shows is plain common sense.

Every black American is only too aware of the reaction of White America to a black (any black) with a gun. If he isn't wearing a cop uniform, he must be a drug dealer or a gang member.

Having a gun increases the chance of being shot for a black citizen, yet if in the course of being mugged, he uses his gun to defend himself, he is likely to be the one jailed.

Think Zimmerman v. Trayvon Martin. Martin was unarmed and dead and Zimmerman wasn't even arrested until the public outcry forced the Florida authorities' hand.

No SW, I think most ordinary black Americans don't want to know about being armed.

Okay. Now that the trauma's worn off, this is why I say that Democrats want to disarm blacks.

The fact is evident in the mechanics of the new gun laws being proposed. They all demand stricter background checks.

The checks would be fine if the purpose was to weed out psychos, but it's not. You can't pass the check if you have a criminal history. Blacks are about five times more likely to have a criminal history than whites. So, this is just one more backdoor way for whitey to disarm blacks.

And the Democrats are culpable because they're the ones who want more and more laws, bigger and bigger government, more and more activity criminalized. Democrats pass laws that define blacks as criminals, then they say that criminals won't be allowed guns.

I think blacks should be afforded the same access to guns as whites. Democrats need to get their racist anti-gun mania under control.

"Mr. President, Chicago's Gun Victims Need You Now
By Tom Bevan - January 18, 2013


Email        Print        276Comments        Share

Mr. President, please come to Chicago.

In Washington on Wednesday, as you rolled out a slate of gun control measures quickly cobbled together in the wake of the Sandy Hook massacre, you said, "If there is even one thing we can do to reduce this violence, if there is even one life that can be saved, then we've got an obligation to try."

If you believe those words, Mr. President, here is a heartfelt suggestion: Come back to your adopted hometown and personally host a summit that grapples seriously with the causes of -- and crafts meaningful solutions to -- gang violence in America's big cities.

It's really not much of an exaggeration to say that parts of Chicago resemble a war zone. The numbers are grim. Unofficially, there were 513 homicides in Chicago in 2012, nearly 100 more than New York City, which recorded 414 killings but which has a population three times larger. Chicago's body count is 200 more than the number of U.S. troops killed in Afghanistan last year. The carnage has continued unabated into the New Year.

It's gone on too long, sir.

The sad reality is that while terrible mass shootings like the ones at Aurora and Newtown shock the nation's conscience, pull at the public's heartstrings, and garner wall-to-wall media coverage, they represent a tiny fraction of the number of gun homicides in the country every year.

Consider this, Mr. President: During the first 16 days of January, 26 people have been killed by guns in Chicago -- the exact same number as at Sandy Hook Elementary School. By the time this year is out, the south and west sides of the city we both call home will have endured, in terms of sheer numbers of people killed, the equivalent of 20 Sandy Hook massacres. That's on top of the equivalent of the 19 Sandy Hooks the city experienced in 2012.

Yet there has been little outcry by the national media, and not much public attention paid to Chicago's crucible by either national political party. Just the sterile news stories in the local papers every morning recounting the details of yet another young person's life cut short and another family ripped apart thanks to senseless violence.

The other sad reality, Mr. President, is that almost nothing proposed this week in Washington, D.C., by your administration will do anything to stem the tide of gun violence in our inner cities. Most of these crimes were not committed with semi-automatic assault weapons, they weren't committed by the mentally ill, and they won't be stopped by universal background checks.

If you are serious about doing everything in your power to curb gun violence and save lives, then you must harness your immense popularity in Chicago -- and in other big cities -- to address the elephant in the room: the failures of a society grown coarsened, desensitized to violence, and too tolerant of such carnage.

This is true of American culture broadly: Hollywood has become too blithe in its glorification of murder, and makers of ultra-violent video games share some of the blame too. But it's particularly true within the African-American community, where too many fatherless young men have given up hope for a better future and embraced a nihilistic gang culture that not only accepts brutal violence on a daily basis but encourages it.

During your presidency you've been asked a number of times about issues of concern to the black community, such as the high rate of African-American unemployment. You tend to respond, gracefully, and rightly, I believe, that you are president of all Americans, and not just one particular group or another.

This issue is different. Because of your heritage and your stature as the first African-American president, you may be the only person in this country who has the influence and moral standing to speak much needed truths to address this longstanding scourge in the black community.

As you said, "If there is even one thing we can do to reduce this violence, if there is even one life that can be saved, then we've got an obligation to try."

There is one thing you can do, Mr. President. Come home to Chicago. Talk to the kids. If they'll listen to anybody, they'll listen to you. "

Sorry,

Dems do NOT want to disarm Blacks. They make the presumption that all Blacks are criminals, and will violate the laws, as they have in the Dem controlled urban areas like Chicago in the past. They do want to make it look like they are doing something about gun violence, without having to actually deal with the causes or results in any real fashion.

The outrage demonstrated here is as fake as Obama's crocodile tears after the Sandy Hook shootings. He wiped a dry eye with the world watching. Wipe your dusty eyes, hypocrites. You want to disarm blacks because you fear them. You jumped at the chance to play White Man's Burden with your government dependency programs, and as a result you now have ghettos full of infantilized blacks. With guns. So you push new gun control laws. That's what this is all about. And don't blame me for the situation.

I started the blank posts. Sorry about that. Maybe I should have pulled the old "Eminem" (filter that old thread if ya don't know whatI am talking about).

By the way... anyone see any of the more recent M&M videos? I gotta say I haven't but that I did see certain videos of the rapper and I find some of his poetry absolutely stunning.

Now, I don't like Rap "music" (and THAT is the crux of the biscuit I can't seem to butter and get down me t'roat - know what I am sayin, b'y, eh?) in the overall but Eminem's poetry is truly stunning to me. Of course, the old question, "What is Rap?", which has been pondered within this forum at least once, including in this post, will never get "truly answered" due to the subjective nature of the question, indeed as likened to, as some have pondered, "What is folk?" or, perhaps, more germain to the present sub-subject, as proposed, in a way, by Spaw, "What is an asshole?".

So, I gotta ask me, "Why NOT just post a blank space as I did and smile when I saw all the other blank posts that followed mine?" Well, such a form of protest is, at best, ineffective as it "tells" the AH that someone actually read his/her/it's post. That is the true nature of the blank post. The blank post speaks volume to an AH and therefore is no less effective than an actually response.

Now, obviously, THIS post is no more effective in "discrediting" an AH but by not simply posting a blank post, this post may remain posted and serve as a reminder to all that I really fucked up with my blank post. Yes, I meant it as a form of protest but it had the opposite effect and actually went against the FACT the the only way to deal with an asshole or troll or bully is to NOT POST AT ALL.

That is what Joe and Jeri and others have been telling me, us, for years and I KNOW that but sometimes I just get SOOOOOOOOO pissed off that I want to SHOUT it with silence.... but when I post silence, I post a SHOUT louder than anything I could post otherwise. And that is what the AH/troll/bully wants.

Now, that is a long winded way of saying what Jeri said but when have you ever know me to just say, "Jeri, Joe, whoever deleted my blank posts...sorry. I know better but sometimes I just get SOOOOOOOO pissed off that I forget to follow your (and my, if I had any) common sense."?

Comments and suggestions are welcome, ineed requested, regarding this post. Am I making any sense? Am I helping or hindering? After all, I am just a gnu, a dumb animal. Gentle and docile...

For the most part.

And another gang of troll feeders keeps it going. Jeri is right, but we all know none of you can sit on your hands and let it die. As a mod and a long-time member it is disgusting, disheartening, and plain stupid.

No, I didn't read anything past the title and I'm sure that many of the others didn't, as well... I think it was understood by all of us that we were abstaining...

What you missed, Jeri, is that about 20 of us just hit "submit" without having posted anything... That spoke volumes... Those posts were taken down...

Sorry people, I said precisely what needed to be said--and didn't even have to fall into the gutter once.   Gee, it can be done after all.   NB

This isn't about attention for me; it's about attention being placed on the real reasons for disarmament.

Liberals have assumed the "white man's burden" of providing for blacks (look at all the programs that encourage government dependency). Part of the white man's burden is making sure that blacks are kept in their place, weapons-wise. Hence, the Democrats are pushing legislation to disarm blacks.

Or so it seems. No one has presented an argument sufficient to convince me otherwise. You're all too busy posturing, showing your pretended outrage to one another.

You want to know why trolls keep hanging around here?

Read the list of names at the top of the thread.

Keep servicing them, and they never stop.

Interesting, despite the (typically) stupid and foul attacks--it does seem that some Mudcatters are far more fluent in gutter langugage than any other-- on those who post on such a thread, to know that's the new rumor the gun nuts intend to spread.   

Too bad similar rumors of liberal ideas targeting blacks never got anywhere--for instance that birth control measures are anti-black, or that supporting a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants is unfair to blacks. Wonder why these brilliant ideas never seem to get much traction.

Face it: if you can think, no matter what color you are, you recognize desperate scaremongering for what it is.

But I always think it's intriguing to hear what the other side is thinking---even if the other side is not thinking at all.

The OP seems to need a lot of attention - and he doesn't get it in the real world. He can find it here. End of story.
