leader of a racist terrorist organization got shot......

It seems to me that everyone who has posted so far is celebrating his death.

From what I read in the article he didn't see the world as a lot of us here do. On the other hand he did act on his convictions, which is something that I think is appreciated by most on this forum.

While it wasn't within the rule of law, I don't see anything obvious that warrants being dead. I don't think anyone would say, "hey, this guy jumped a fence to steal a flag and organized people for a cause they all agreed on but we disagree with. Let's shoot him."

Can you guys help me understand? Am I missing something?

All I know of this is from what I read in the link, so please spell it out.

Thanks,
Bob

Thanks for the additional info, Mcameron. I'll check out the story a little more. I don't spend much time keeping up on current events.

You really didn't have to be a dick in your closing. That doesn't help anyone.

Enjoy the best you can,
Bob
 
How is this actual news? Happens everyday. Because Black lives are only suppose to matter to White People. Black People get a pass.

Your humanitarian side is appreciated. The world would be a better place if more cared as you do.

Your self admitted failure to keep up with current events to the point where you missed the black lives matter movement is shocking and erases about all value of your caring side.

Going through life uninformed is what gets us into messes like this in the first place.

I would mourn this mans death if he had been in south side Chicago or heart of New Orleans proclaiming his message of black lives mattering but to do it as political theatre defines him as a thug.

I keep up with current events, and I know exactly what the BLM movement is. I know what it's purpose is, and I know that as an American that believes in freedom of speech I am appalled by the celebration of any individuals death. We should all be saddened by the death of another American Citizen. I believe that the path forward is not death but cooperation. Many movements are started in rage, and develop into a mature movement that becomes productive.

I wish that Frank would shut this section down. Many of the posters to these sections never contribute firearm related information to the forum. Many simply copy news stories and post inflammatory statements. Outsiders will view these posts and paint the entire forum as a bunch of racists simply because a few posts.

There was a time when adversaries gathered around a table in a bar to discuss their differences. Now everyone runs to their mouths behind their adversaries back. To get back to that time someone needs to take the high ground.
 
while I agree with you on celebrating a death of a fellow American, you say free speech the you want to shut a section down to stifle speech, you really only agree with free speech for those that agree with you. Taking the high road is what gave us political correctness and helped the huge increase in dumbasses and conversion of our universities into marxist indoctrination camps that would make Mao and Stalin proud. WHy dont you take the high road and leave the conversation to people here that want to discuss it here.

Some questions for you
  1. What is the connection between your belief in freedom of speech and being appalled by the celebration of any individual's death?
  2. Why should we be saddened by the death of an individual that promotes hate, revenge, and anarchy; regardless of his citizenship?
  3. Why do you wish to cooperate with an organization that promotes hate, revenge, and anarchy?
  4. Do you honestly believe that this: https://blacklivesmatter.com/about/what-we-believe/ will ever lead to anything productive?
  5. How do you square your love of freedom of speech and your desire to shut down this subforum because you do not agree with what's in here?
  6. Where is the requirement that participation in this subforum is conditional on participation in other subforums?
  7. Are you a member of Black Lives Matter?

You could call it "live by the sword die by the sword".
While callus concerning another man's death we become hardened as we hear of the hundreds maybe thousands every day.

Sorry, but some of us don't live circumscribed lives in which we rarely see people not like ourselves. And some of us deal with aspects of exclusionary behavior on a daily basis. It doesn't matter which box you check if you're acting like someone is dirt between the treads of your boot because their skin is a different color, their ancestors came from a different continent, or they don't think like you do and think of the world and its creation as having come about according to a different narrative. There's nothing wrong with talking about the world as it is, and some, through this back and forth, come off with new understanding and less hatred in their hearts. I'd like to say that BLM are a bunch of righteous do-gooders guiltlessly struggling to advance the cause of the black man, but there's no advancement for anyone if thug methods belittling and victimizing others are at the heart of the methodology.

Witness:



If a man is your brother, he stands with you, shoulder to shoulder.

You believe in freedom of speech so much, you want this section shut down because people talk about subjects you don't like. :LOL::ROFLMAO:
 
Some questions for you
  1. What is the connection between your belief in freedom of speech and being appalled by the celebration of any individual's death?
    1. The mockery of his death. I believe that they have as much right to speak as anyone else does. But the mockery of his death is sad.
  2. Why should we be saddened by the death of an individual that promotes hate, revenge, and anarchy; regardless of his citizenship?
    1. Because had he lived long enough he may have seen the error in his language, rather than pulling people apart he may have had a hand in bringing them together in a positive way.
  3. Why do you wish to cooperate with an organization that promotes hate, revenge, and anarchy?
    1. I have no with to cooperate with the organization, I am willing to hear their side and share my own in a non hostile manner.
  4. Do you honestly believe that this: https://blacklivesmatter.com/about/what-we-believe/ will ever lead to anything productive?
    1. How can any of us know the future. Do I know that it will? No. Do I hope that it will? Yes. Do I share their beliefs? No. Should we hate them? No. I do know that racism still exists in all levels of society.
  5. How do you square your love of freedom of speech and your desire to shut down this subforum because you do not agree with what's in here?
    1. Quite easily. I believe in all free speech. I believe it is a fundamental right. I wish these sections were shut down, not to prevent free speech, but because most posts in these sections have no relation to firearms. I believe that those who would seek to infringe on our second amendment rights would use these types of post to indict all of the rest of us.
  6. Where is the requirement that participation in this subforum is conditional on participation in other subforums?
    1. Exactly my point. These sections dilute the value of the forum. I come here to look at information about firearms. That is my interest.
  7. Are you a member of Black Lives Matter?
    1. Nice try. I like that you are seeking to invalidate my comments by suggesting that I am trolling for BLM. Here is what I believe. All lives matter. Even the lives our our enemy matter. I believe that BLM is sorely misguided, and that they should look inwards to resolve issues surrounding race. I believe that more black children are killed by abortion that will ever be killed by police. I believe that members of this community and second amendment supporters would be far better off by trying to include all people of color. Comments in this thread will only serve to drive them away.

I don't expect anyone to share my opinion. I've spoken my piece and have no interest in furthering this section or this thread.

No, Sir. I believe this section has nothing to do with firearms. I believe what is posted here (these sections and posts) can be quite inflammatory. I think that some of the posts can and will be used against "us". Posts such as allow people to paint us (Gun Owners) with broad strokes. Speak all you want about whatever you want, but I'd rather not have to read about it on a GUN forum. Again, just sharing my opinion. Frank's the boss. He can do as he wishes. It's his image, and his dime.

Every gun forum I've ever been on has an off-topic/non-firearm related section. Why in the hell does it surprise you that we have one here is beyond me.

I believe what is posted here (these sections and posts) can be quite inflammatory. I think that some of the posts can and will be used against "us".
The very fact that we own and use firearms will be used against us. Many of us are done giving a fuck about what our enemies think because all they want is the complete elimination of civilian firearm ownership. There is no amount of compromise that will satisfy them.

Speak all you want about whatever you want, but I'd rather not have to read about it on a GUN forum.
Then find someplace else to be

let me be perfectly clear........so there is no confusion......

not only am i glad hes dead......i hope it hurt the entire time he was dying.

just being an "american" doesnt give you a free pass to commit crimes, call for the deaths of innocent people, and convince your followers to murder police officers.

and if you "feel sad" for him....you are just as big a piece of shit as he is.

would you "feel sad" if you found out a KKK grand wizard was shot?......how about a ISIS radicalized domestic terrorist?.....i dont think so......youd probably think they had i coming.

you dont defeat terrorism by "cooperating".....you defeat terrorism by killing terrorists.....and rest assured, BLM is a terrorist organization.


nor am i going to censor myself.....you dont like what i have to say? tough shit......some lesbian bull dyke who comes on here and doesnt like what i have to say? tough shit....some piss-ant do-gooder liberal doesnt like what i have to say? tough shit.......its not my fault your bitch ass is so easily offended.

trying to censor opinions you dont agree with is the same tactic used by the liberals to spread their bullshit......"oh thats not PC, you cant say that"...."oh, this isnt the forum for that"....."oh thats racist, you cant say that"......"oh this doesnt contribute to our image, you cant say that".....

fuck off, and no, im not saying that "behind your back".......i dont say anything online i dont have the balls to say in person.

I must have missed something obvious, help me out here. In addition to all of the charges leveled against this guy by other posters on this thread, he was riding "his" bicycle around New Orleans, at 1:00 AM, likely in a bad part of town, and he got shot. I didn't see where he was shot by a cop or a white citizen, or a person of a different color/ethnic background than him. Of the (self admitted) skimming of the article that I did, I didn't see any mention of who he was shot by. Per one of the other posts on this thread citing statistics, I'm going to go out on a limb and "assume" he was shot by a hoodlum of similar ethnic background. Now granted, that's just a guess, but I'd bet money that the percentages are in my favor.
So, having said all of that, you come on this thread, knowing the thread is a "show all, blowhole", then complain about people having "racist" attitudes. I can/will only speak for myself and I'll say; Fuck You. You don't know me and you have zero right to attempt to stand in judgement of me, my thoughts or opinions. You have your right to your opinions, just like I do. I don't have any interest in trying to tell you what to think and I have no interest in you thinking that you have a right to force your opinions on me or others that don't think the same way you do.

Stay with me, it gets even simpler for you. I do not read the Huffington Post, Washington Post, LA Times, NY Times or watch any MSM, MSNBC, CNN etc. You are welcome to do exactly the same. If you do not like the tone or the content of any media outlet or website, do the simple thing and do not frequent it. What you are proposing is censorship, pure and simple. That's not going to fly, here, or anywhere else. Oh, and you might give some consideration to the possibility that the reason Frank created the Bear Pit and Maggie's Drawers was to give the people that wanted to have these kinds of conversations a place to do so, away from the mainstream firearms threads.

For what it's worth, do I think it's a tragedy when another human being loses their life ? Yeah, I do. However, the guy was well known for promoting "death to cops". I just stopped caring a WHOLE BUNCH. Also, I didn't pull the trigger, seemingly, one of his brethren did. So, in addition to caring very little (if any) I also find that I have nothing to feel guilty about. Which brings me to another question for you; What did you do to help the victim ? If you didn't have time to help him, what are you going to do to help the next victim, that will most likely be shot tonight. What are you going to do to help the next one (and the next, and the next, etc). How about you just take your hollow, self righteous bullshit somewhere else. You'll be much happier in the long run.

@The_Count Atta Buoy. Swing and an epic miss. I can't believe you actually posted that up in here. I'm not gonna spend much time on ya with this, that's how I roll. But I gotta point this little tid bit out to ya. We enjoy each others company. We just do. Wanna know why? Cuz we got something in common. We're all Gun Nutz. Many of us enjoy reloading, hunting, fishing, target shooting, competing, yada yada. Most of us have or are serving in the Military, Law Enforcement, Corrections (giggle giggle), First Responders, and are just damn good people who are more like minded than not. I'm surprised the responses you deserve have not been 'harsh'. ;)

You obviously craved attention by coming here and shitting in the pool. You got your attention.
