So it's OK to murder somebody if drugs are involved? Also, "black guys" getting dissed? Really??

From Malcom X
"Last but not least, I must say this concerning the great controversy over rifles and shotguns. The only thing I've ever said is that in areas where the government has proven itself either unwilling or unable to defend the lives and the property of Negroes, it's time for Negroes to defend themselves. Article number two of the Constitutional amendments provides you and me the right to own a rifle or a shotgun. It is constitutionally legal to own a shotgun or a rifle. This doesn't mean you're going to get a rifle and form battalions and go out looking for white folks, although you'd be within your rights - I mean, you'd be justified; but that would be illegal and we don't do anything illegal. If the white man doesn't want the black man buying rifles and shotguns, then let the government do its job. That's all."

Re: Puterbac News Network and Political Discussion Thread
One of the very first things members of the Ku Klux Klan are told to do upon indoctrination, is to vote Democrat. It was Klan members who first got the idea that the best way to protect themselves from the Negroes who might shoot back, is to create laws and regulations to disarm them. And disarming the public is one of the fundamental building blcoks of the Democratic Party. Thus, the Democrats were (by their very nature) the greatest allies the Klan had.sardis wrote:From Malcom X

Sure, I could have stayed in the past. I could have even been king. But in my own way, I am king.

IB, are you Christian counselor or a rap artist? When you're counseling couples, do you tell the pimp to bust a cap in his ho?It should come as no surprise that (as our leaders trust the people less and less) our nation is going to shit.

Re: Puterbac News Network and Political Discussion Thread
No comment on Obama's new gun control policies?
I'm fine with laws that help restrict crazies from getting guns. That approach won't always work, though. For example, the shooter at Newtown was already legally mentally ill, and would have been denied purchase of guns under the proposed new law. So he just stole the guns from his mother. Likewise, if a future mass murderer can't get guns because he is certified crazy, he will just steal them.
The "assault weapons ban" proposal is as silly and stupid as it was when it was first enacted under the Brady bill. The law described an "assault weapon" purely on how it looked, not how it functioned. Whether or not it has a pistol grip or a bayonet notch or other legal nitwittery that legally defined an assault rifle makes no difference in a mass shooting. If a rifle is semiautomatic, THAT's what makes it more lethal. But to ban semiautomatics would ban nearly every hunting rifle in America. Good luck with that.
I'm okay with restrictions on magazine capacity, but they won't make much of a difference either. Instead of bringing fewer high capacity magazines, a shooter will just bring more low capacity magazines. Does anybody really think a homicidal nutjob will say to himself, "I was going to commit mass murder today, but it's just too hard carrying some extra magazines around. I guess I won't after all."
Like all attempts at gun control, Obama's proposals will do nothing to stop mass shootings. It will merely help liberals feel good about themselves.

Why are the police not enforcing gun free zones?

Like TSA agents who "randomly" pick out Chinese grandmothers and war veterans missing limbs to receive extreme scrutiny at the airport. And most of the Patriot act.Kinda like attempts to do something about terrorism makes conservatives feel good about themselves...
