(15,229 posts)carry even an assault weapon, in public, obviously potentially including the multiple killers, cowards, who go to schools and shoot the unarmed children and teachers. As if it proved their machismo - when a four year old girl could wreak havoc with a loaded gun. That is something journalists should always trumpet, but nary a word.
The gun manufacturers and their lobby make a farce of the law with this. I revile the police for their own cowardly bullying of A-A males, but the fact is that, while some are just plain murderous (like the old girls who phone the police because they think a black man looks suspicious!!!), there may well be a good reason why many seem borderline psychotics. I mean, not only the above, but above all, because their victims might well be running away to escape being returned to prison, because of some minor infraction, technically in breach of their catchall, parole regulations.
They may on the surface seem happy to persecute the A-A's, but deep down they must wonder why, in a country already steeped in violence, they have to put their lives on the line because of footling parole regulations that ruin the lives of the A-A's males and their families, for no better reason than to enrich those who would 'build their house, on high' on the misery of the incarcerated A-A's, a well as white victims.
