Actor Danny Glover Tells Students 2nd Amendment Was Created To Protect Slavery (Video) The Constitution's Second Amendment was created to bolster slavery and capture land from Native Americans, award winning actor Danny Glover told a group of students at a Texas A&M sponsored event on Thursday. “I don’t know if you know the genesis of the right to bear arms,” he said. “The Second Amendment comes from the right to protect themselves from slave revolts, and from uprisings by Native Americans.” “A revolt from people who were stolen from their land or revolt from people whose land was stolen from, that’s what the genesis of the second amendment is,” he continued. Glover, best known for roles in the “Lethal Weapon” franchise and “Angels in the Outfield,” was addressing students at an event being held in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Director of Texas A&M’s Memorial Student Center, Luke Altendorf, told Campus Reform on Friday that the university was unaware of Glover’ talking points prior to his speech. “I had no idea, we really didn’t know that topic was coming up,” he told Campus Reform. “Someone was asking a question about activism, I think that’s where some of that came from.” Altendorf declined to say if, or how much the school had paid for Glover’s speech, but said student fees were not used. WATCH: Danny Glover says the Second Amendment was crafted by America's founding fathers to protect slavery In the past, however, the university paid Angela Davis and Harry Belafonte $25,000 for their speeches at the same event. Altendorf also defended the school’s decision to host those controversial speakers with university resources. “We didn’t feel those speakers you are referring to are bad decisions on these topics because we want to foster discussion,” he said. The video recording of the event was captured by members of a student group, the Texas Aggie Conservatives (TAC). That group has also created an online petition blasting Texas A&M for its speaker selections. Eric Schroeder, chairman of the conservative group, called the event “outrageous.” “It should be a time for real reflection and respect,” he said referring to the memorial breakfast for King. “Instead, the university pushes a political agenda.” Schroeder also called on university President Bowen Loftin to make up for the event by inviting a conservative speaker of equal star power. “We expect President Loftin to stand by his commitment to diversity and fully support our efforts to bring in a conservative speaker to provide an alternative to Mr. Glover’s far left message” said Schroeder.

Hear! Hear! Spoken like a true, ignorant, obedient plantation field hand that you are, Glover! And I'm sure the surpreme socialist house-nigga you worship, surrounded by 'ARMED WHITE MEN', protecting his cowardly narcissistic ass would agree with you. Heads up, Glover! Our First Amendment says, 'the right of the people', nowhere did it mention the words, 'the right of the white man'! As a 'FREE' black American who's taken advantage of all this nation has to offer you in achieving all your own hopes and dreams of the future, one would think you would take a more serious look at yourself, before you dare snatch one single liberty or freedom from another man, and come to the realization that this nonsensical embrace of plantation charlatan practices by Obama and the traitors he surrounds himself with, is a death sentence for the future of your children, not just the white children you seem to nurse grievences against. Chew on this, einstein! Once you succeed in disarming 'all men' of this nation, not just the white man, what is to stop a purely evil 'white klansman' sitting in the white house from turning back the clock and taking away everything the black man fought for, bled for, and died for? Maybe you and your black bratha's and sista's could congregate together (if you still have that right) and sing a chorus or two of 'Go Down Moses", march in the streets and wave your protest signs demanding your right to be treated equally, and pray they don't beat the dog-shit out of you or your loved ones, or shoot them dead where they march? Why not, it worked the first time, right? Yeah, that'll do it! I believe that if your decendents are as ignorant, racist and foolish as you are, Glover, then your people have no future, and they will have you and the house-niggas they worshiped to thank for their chains you helped forge. jmho!
Glover is nothing but a field nigger working hard to be a house nigger. He's only famous because he became friends with a white man that gave him a film role that made him wealthy. Now that he IS wealthy he sees that as proof that he is smart when the truth is he is the equivalent of a lottery winner. BTW,somebody PLEASE tell me students in the audience were laughing at him!
