So media bias goes so far that they don't report blacks using guns in self defense? Or do the gate keepers not put those stories on right wing pages?mcgruff10 said:
That happened in the communist state of New Jersey which happens to be my home state.unsung said:You are reaching. How about GOA fighting for the lady that crossed state lines and was arrested because she had a convealed carry that wasn't honored by that State. She was black. Didn't know that? Because it is irrelevant. The story was out there, media reports how they want.
On a side note, i see blacks, whites , asians, hispanics, etc. all enjoying time at the range. No one gives two shits about the color of your skin but people only care if you are practicing safe shooting. If you act like a dick you are called out on it regardless of your profession (plenty of cops and soldiers go to my range) or color of your skin.
Stop making everything into a race issue.
You want to report about blacks acting in self defense? Get off your butt and get a job where you can do that.

Interestingly, the self defense news stories that I read don't typically mention race one way or another.
It wasn't too long ago that I saw a story on the news where a woman used a gun to stop three armed intruders inside her home. There was a statement from the sheriff of Detroit that encouraged law abiding citizens to learn how to protect themselves with firearms since response times for emergency services were so long.
As it happens, the woman was black but I wouldn't have known that if I didn't see her on tv.If hope can grow from dirt like me, it can be done. - EV0 -

No, you introduced it in this thread. We don't care about that. We want everyone to be able to defend themselves how they see fit.Go Beavers said:

My point is that sometimes "everyone" appears to not really be everyone.unsung said:

Haven't been keeping up lately, but has this been mentioned?
The grandfather of one of the three Oklahoma home invaders shot dead is pissed off because the homeowner used an AR15 and the home invaders only had brass knuckles. He says it wasn't a fair fight.

I remember seeing a protest sign that read:
"A mother shouldn't have to worry about her son every time he robs a store".
Don't go looking for trouble and you probably won't find any.If hope can grow from dirt like me, it can be done. - EV0 -

The person that goes to work, does their best, doesn't witness any corruption, and goes home after his shift?

Agreed.
Unsung, do you protest in the streets w/ thoughts like the meme you just posted?
Seriously man.
