Violence against progressives
Edited on Sat Aug-16-08 01:52 PM by virginia mountainman
In light, of the recent violence, USED against us, Democrats and Liberals. We must remember, that we have ALWAYS, been the target of the right wing. In these trying times, Why, do many on the Left, react by calling for more gun control in the wake of such a terrible happenings the exact opposite should be the case..

We will NEVER disarm the right wing, nor should we try....We should arm ourselves instead, after all, it is OUR RIGHT

We, should embrace, the whole Bill of Rights, including the 2nd Amendment.

The Greensboro Massacre

Pay attention, closely, did the Police, protect the peaceful anti-Klan folks, NO, not by a long shot, watch the next video, to see how the peaceful marchers where treated..

The Klan and Nazi's where able to stand in the middle of the road, and gun down the protesters, without ANYONE being able to do anything about it... It would have been much different, if only a few of the protesters had carried defensive weaponry. One or two shots back at them, would have forced them to take cover, dramatically reducing the effects of their shots.

3. Was it Malcolm X that said,
every black man should go out and buy a shotgun? His reasoning was very clear.
