(ThyBlackMan.com) Let’s get right to the point. Do not be distracted by the rhetoric that gun violence is overtaking this country. This country, ironically, was conceived in violence brought about by Caucasian people fleeing Europe, killing native Americans and enslaving Africans for hundreds of years. Nobody said there was a whip problem when they were whipping slaves. And nobody said there was a gun violence problem when they were killing Native Americans. When the Klan brought out the guns, American did not say we had a gun problem. Now all of a sudden we have a gun problem?
Statistics seem to show that gun violence is up due to young African American males, some say. But why are those same stats on gun violence failing to reflect police gun violence, militias like the one in Oregon or mass shootings done by Caucasian people such as in Columbine, the Batman killer or the church in South Carolina? I tell you there is a deliberate plan afoot to skew the facts, shape public perception and let many of the real culprits walk away. The powers that be are accomplishing this by using the art of misdirection. They tell you what to look at while they hide, disguise or avoid the real problems and those responsible for them.
Recently I had to contact a local talk show host in Atlanta from AM750 on your radio dial (Erik Erickson) regarding what he said about gun violence and how he blamed young African American males. Keep reading and see for yourself what I told him. I focus on all sides of an issue and all the facts.
“ATTENTION ERIK ERICKSON: http://www.wsbradio.com/s/erickson/
I don’t know whether to call you ignorant, a racist or both. On January 6, 2016 you made statements that were irresponsible and conclusions that were inaccurate regarding African American youth and guns. I am both an African American and a former detective. You stated that if we alleviated the young black male crimes with guns, we would not have a gun problem in this country (essentially).
Here is why your conclusions, assumptions and assertions are inaccurate. First of all, the Bureau of Justice Statistics and often the FBI stats are not accurate as they seem to be. These numbers often come from police departments all over the country which file Uniform Crime Reports. But the UCR system is very outdated and many departments do not use the more accurate National Incident Based Reporting System (NIBRS) which was created by the FBI as a more accurate tracking method for crime. Atlanta, for example, still uses the outdated and inaccurate system.
Secondly, the Federal stats also state that up to 50% of crimes are not reported. Thus the stats we do have are again inaccurate.
Thirdly, you are wrong overall because overwhelmingly most of the mass shootings that occur in this country are done by white males such as in the Columbine killing or the Batman Killer. And if you ad in
Fourth of all, if you factor those non-African American numbers in as well as the unlawful shootings by police officers in this country, the numbers change yet again. I suggest you visit www.policemisconduct.net as a good start. I can supply much more data as well.
Fifth of all, if you are honest about deliberate capitalistic, political and socio-economic causes of poverty implemented by the racists of this country for hundreds of years, you will find people of your color are largely (not solely) responsible for creating the conditions that breed crime. These are reasons and contributing factors for criminal behaviors, not excuses for such behavior. Every individual who uses a gun in a crime should answer for it, so don’t think I am making excuses for criminals. And before you go there, don’t mistake my viewing all sides of the issue as making excuses or justifying criminal behavior.
Finally, it is foolish of you to expect any President to single out any group based on race or ethnicity. For you to criticize President Obama because he does not is simply unrealistic. Such a claim, if he made it, would isolate an entire group. Maybe you believe the Hitler approach to singling out a group based on race or ethnicity is wise but it clearly is not.
You really need to do better research and see all sides of the issue instead of simply reading stats and thinking you know what you are talking about. You might want to take a course on statistics and learn how the numbers can and are often manipulated before you open your mouth.”
BACK TO ARTICLE
Racism, denial and bigotry have all come out of the box since 
President Obama entered the White House – and it has come from all sides and colors towards all sides and colors. For some reason the Caucasian community wants to deny having played the key role in the very behaviors that are coming back in their faces.
This country was built on crime and treachery. Therefore I find it both ironic and hypocritical when the criminals blame those they captured, enslaved and infected with poverty, division and hopelessness. But what is really going on with this gun issue? Do your research and you will discover what I say is correct. It is easier to implement martial law with little resistance if you can get the guns away from private citizens. It is easier to implement programs like the King Alfred Plan, Rex 84, the NDAA and Agenda 21 when citizens are unarmed and unprepared. It is easier to surrender United States sovereignty to the United Nations when American citizens cannot fight back.
Read the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution and you will see it addresses the right of citizens to have well armed militias just as much as it addresses the general right to bear arms. Caucasian people know this and that is why gun shows are selling out. That is also why the Social Security Administration bought all that ammo only a few years ago. Something is coming and our governments are purposely allowing gun violence in order to have a reason to restrict gun ownership and eventually collect the guns. There are already parts of this country where you cannot have a gun but I guess they just blatantly ignore the Second Amendment of the Constitution.
Watch out and stay wide awake because both President Obama and Hillary Clinton are in favor of restricting if not destroying the Second Amendment. Their speeches sound like attempts to make us safer but look behind the rhetoric to the actual end results. Making it harder for law abiding citizens (whatever that means) to get guns will only leave us less protected. The criminals do not care how long the waiting period is because they don’t plan to wait anyway. The only thing they have to wait for is the man to pull up behind the building and open his trunk.
Use the law and the United States Constitution to protect yourself and your family. But please, when and if you buy a firearm, go to the gun range, learn how to use it, where to store it, how to clean it, how to lock it away from children as well as when and where you can carry it. Know the federal and state gun laws. Be smart and be ready.
