Oath Keepers Plan to Arm Black People With AR-15 Rifles for ‘Iconic Event’: Report The Root ^ | 8/17 | Breanna Edwards Posted on 8/18/2015, 12:59:23 PM by nickcarraway The leader of a Missouri Oath Keepers group is planning the experimental protest, hoping to arm 50 black people with rifles to demonstrate the meaning of the state’s open-carry law. Oath Keepers are planning to use black protesters for a special kind of experimental demonstration within the next couple of weeks by arming some 50 black individuals with AR-15 rifles in a march to show what Missouri’s open-carry law really stands for, Red Dirt Report notes. Sam Andrews, who heads a St. Louis County chapter, said the event will most likely occur within the next “couple of weeks,” comparing the event to Martin Luther King Jr.’s march on Washington, D.C., according to the site. “It will be an iconic event,” Andrews told the site. The armed black participants will be surrounded by Oath Keeper members, Andrews said. The Oath Keeper said that he was moved to attempt the experiment after the anniversary of Michael Brown’s death, when members were allegedly told that they could not carry long-barrel rifles into Ferguson. The Oath Keepers reportedly said that they were there at the request of journalists, providing security while they covered the anniversary. (Excerpt) Read more at theroot.com ...

If it’s legal to carry long arms in Ferguson, then it’s legal regardless of skin color. A vast number of people in the US have shown themselves to be incapable of normal prudence, and a lot of those people are black. However I don’t suppose oath keepers are handing out long arms at random. I’ve got to imagine there are 50 blacks out there who don’t take their gun-handling tips from Idiocracy. 13 posted on 8/18/2015, 1:19:34 PM by agere_contra (Hamas has dug miles of tunnels - but no bomb-shelters.)

I don't know or much care what Freepers think. As far as hypocrites go, I imagine they populate that site as much as anywhere else. But as far as I am concerned, the 2nd Amendment (as does the remainder of the Bill of Rights) does - or should - apply to ALL citizens. Regardless of color. And in a sane republic - one that was founded "for a just and moral people" (J. Adams) - this would not even be an issue. But in the world we inhabit, this could either end well. Or not. If it doesn't, we may just get that "race war" that the Emperor and his regime seem to have been pushing for. "Helter-Skelter's comin' down" - C. Manson "Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD . . . " ~Psalm 33:12a
The freepers are in tune with the gun grabbing NRA, Ronald Reagan, and George W. Bush. "I believe in background checks at gunshows, or anywhere" ~George W. Bush, Tempe AZ debate 2004 It does. We are either all equal in the eyes of the law,or none of us are equal. But in the world we inhabit, this could either end well. Or not. If it doesn't, we may just get that "race war" that the Emperor and his regime seem to have been pushing for. I dunno. I live in a rural area with a lot of blacks,and am friendly with several that are roughly my age. I'd be shocked to hear that any of them doesn't own a gun,and am totally unconcerned about them being armed. Back when I ran a gunshop I would give huge discounts to elderly black women coming in to buy a handgun for self-defense because they lived alone and were afraid of their grandchildren and their friends. Especially around the 3rd of the month when their SS checks came in. Ironically enough,my own family had this same problem. One of my uncles had a 18 year old hoodlum grandson that was a wigger/wannabe thug. Quit or was thrown out of school when he was 16,had several jobs that lasted almost a week,and lived at home wid his mamma,like all good little thugs. He came over to my uncles house on the 3rd of the month one day several years ago and kicked the door in because they had locked it to keep him from taking my aunt's purse and her SS money. He had done that before,so they were ready with a locked door that time. It did them no good because he kicked the door in and then actually put a revolver in my aunt's face to get her to give him the money. They were both in their late 70's at the time. Of course,part of the problem was his mother and his grandparents. Every time he got into trouble they would cover for him and make excuses. I couldn't get them to press charges on him this time either because he was on probation and would have gone to prison,where IMHO he belonged. His mother quit talking to me and would only glare at me after that because I had tried to get her darlin' son put in prison. She was working two jobs to support his trifling ass and pay his fines,and he was just hanging around the house all day watching tv and getting high. The baby daddy had skipped town to locations unknown years earlier. Vanilla Thug and one of his white bread wigger thug pals were at my uncle's several weeks later when I dropped by to visit,and when my uncle asked me why I was in town,I told him I came to town to buy some tools from Craigs List,and had 1,000 bucks in cash in my pocket to buy them with. I hung around for a hour or so until after the Vanilla Posse left,hoping they would try to jump me on my way to my truck,but no such luck. I didn't have 1,000 bucks in my pocket,but I did have a 3 inch 44 Special. Trash needs to be taken out,even if it is family trash. Maybe even ESPECIALLY if it is family trash. Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
Of course, the Oath Keepers would have no problem arming the White Supremists with AR 15s.
Why would anyone at LF give a shit about FreeRepublic, or what's posted there? This is LF... where we debate over what's discussed HERE, and the tool bags that post at other political blogs debate over what's posted THERE. I'm the infidel... Allah warned you about. كافر المسلح
You speak for everyone at LF? I am amused.
Too bad you did not get the opportunity to use it on the "family trash". However, you would probably have had to spend a pile on lawyers. Si vis pacem, para bellum
I doubt it. I am a old man that is partially crippled,and have no criminal record. On the other hand,both of those punks were on probation and had long juvenile records.

Black Panthers at the Capitol in Sacremento just before Governor Reagan signed the Mulford Act, banning open carry. The Panthers Were Right and Reagan Was Wrong on Gun Control (Mulford Act in California, 1967)
