Are the NBPs the black version of the Klan/Neo-Nazis?
If the klan wanted to arm all legal black men. Yes same reaction.
NBPs? No.
Old BPs? Yes.
You can't blame or credit current generations for what their predecessors did. However, you can at least try to educate the idiots who try and misrepresent both the current and the past of the NRA. That is where USMC-FF has it exactly right.
How do you figure? I think the issues that were important then are equally and just as important now if not more important! The NRA has a steep history in protecting the second amendment right for all races & ethnic background and that should not be forgotten! I think all law abiding Americans should have the right to carry and think the NRA does its best to protect those rights for all Americans.I know the NRA history, but I don't think the factors that drove membership then, drive membership now.
Yeah, kinda.
If the Klan wanted to arm all legal white men?
NBP, yes.
OBP, no.
I don't want anyone who is legally able to be armed to be discouraged from being so. I do however have issues with certain groups issuing calls to arms because I know what their motivations are. The NBP is a racist organization that advocate violence against others based primarily on their ethnicity. If this was the Klan or ISIS issuing a call to arms, I expect the reaction here would be a bit different. But in the era of political correctness, the "intolerant" sometimes resort to questionable and at times ridiculous arguments in a futile attempt to prove to the "tolerant" that they aren't racists.
Dude! Here we are being the same person again.........
While on the surface most of us agree with the premise that everyone who can legally possess firearms should possess them for the protection of themselves and their loved ones, I suspect the NBP folks have a different target set in mind rather than thugs and thieves in The 'Hood. However, it's their right to talk all they want; I won't care unless they start targeting innocents.
So what is the idea with the new black potheads? Have they formed a black militia to patrol the streets and protect their people from white policemen. If whites tried that we'd have another Ruby Ridge/Waco.
Now, I'm just an unfrozen cave man lawyer, confused by all the bright lights and words but, I rest my case.
I do however have issues with certain groups issuing calls to arms because I know what their motivations are.
That is also my mission.
I agree but i would remove the word black. If the goal is equality, wouldnt we be obligated to protect everyone equally. Crazy talk! and they say i dont know a lot about nothing!
