Black Folk: Don't Join The NRA

[MrPrena]

Illustrates who the TRUE racist's in this nation are doesn't it?

+1
This video is simply stupid. It is arrogant, and narrow minded to the inner city mentality.

Maybe I should start watching "White/Yellow/Red/Blue Public Media Org"
OH WAIT!!!! There are NONE!

When confronted by such blatant racism and stupidity it is hard to be civil.

Amused that these folks don't understand that NRA is a civil rights organization fighting for all Americans rights without regard to race.

Just watched it...

Is it just me, or does the skinny lady in the black sleeveless dress think she is obama?

ETA: WHOOPSY!!!! I said "black dress"...Does that make me racist?

That video linked in post #1 is basically a rorschach splatter: if you watch the entire video, there's something for everyone, regardless of whether you are for gun control, against the NRA, for the NRA, pro-gun, anti-gun, for the constitution, etc.

If anything, I'd comment that the producer failed at creating a cohesive message of any kind whatsoever.

Who's to say that wasn't the point? Much in journalism today follows a certain pattern that leads the reader to go away with a level of 'uncertainty'.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Or put in just enough middle-of-the-road, or somewhat-opposing-viewpoint to be able to CYA later, if need be?

Context is EVERYTHING.

The whole concept is "black people don't ..." then they pick stereotypical subject and interview folks

like one video is "Black People Don't Swim".

3. The NRA has a history of supporting the Civil Rights Movement.
While African Americans were being terrorized by the Ku Klux Klan, where the Klan were sometimes aided by local law enforcement, the NRA setup charters to help train local African American communities to be able protect themselves. The most prominent case being in 1960 in Monroe, N.C. where the local National Association for the Advancement of Colored People head Robert Williams also chartered an NRA Rifle Club that successully defended an assault on one of their leader's homes by the KKK without casualties.

"Black Folk Don't: Camp" is actually pretty amusing.

I think utter ineptitude is likely more the case. A complete inability to stay on-topic seems all too common nowadays.
