I don’t know how to break this to y’all, but there are black people who profit from betraying and misinforming other black people. There are black people who hope the situation in black America never improves, because they make money on that misery. There are black people who do all they can to make damn sure that other black people do not avail themselves of any of the opportunities to improve their situation and thus ruin the lifestyle of the profiteers on their misery and self-inflicted disenfranchisement.

Peddling hate and racism pays better than advising self reliance, self control, and ambition.

It’s importanat to remember that the only way the Mother Jones vile misinterpretation of the history of the Second Amendment makes sense is if you also accept the anti-gun misinterpretation of the purpose of the Second Amendment; that the Second Amendment as an anti-slave amendment only makes sense if you accept the Second Amendment only protects States Militias from the federal government, the ‘collective rights’ misinterpretation of the Second Amendment.

I was hugely amused to read the D.C. rep argue before SCOTUS in favor of the ‘collective rights’ State Militia position! When Ginsburg tried to pin him down on exactly what the Second Amendment prevents the Federal Gov from doing, the D.C. rep happily drove right over the logic cliff. If you accepted his logic then the Feds would have no ability to prevent State Militias from being armed with nuclear weapons! Good grief.

I suppose that the second amendment and the army were in the Constitution to keep slaves down, and when they didn’t work (Nat Turner, Abolition and the Civil War and all), political scum (but I repeat myself) had to come up with gun control laws.

The US Army was deployed to the South in order stop slave uprisings in the pre-Civil War days (according to General Sherman at least). Clearly, the US Army was enshrined in the Constitution solely to enforce slavery.
