Cliff,
That is what I'm talking about.
I have noticed that here in Eugene, the people tend to "stick with their own"
. We have a large Latino/Mexican population but you wouldn't know it day to day. I only know of four Blacks that I've personally met here, the gentleman from the club, the guy that I saw and talked with at SM gun shop (had a Sig and was picking up a holster) and two who are apprentices at the school.
If you think that there are "rednecks" in the South, you should come here
. I will tell you the truth, I'm tired of looking at white all the time and would like some color in my life
.
But El (I think it was him) had a good idea. Here we are talking about this and that but we (some of us) haven't taken the time to take someone else of another culture out to the range. I think that I will make that my goal. Get more and more folks into shooting and guns and maybe they can change from the inside out in their culture.
I also, as was stated before, that the biggest enemy is the so called "leadership". The naacp is anti-gun as heck and the Jewish congress is just as bad. What I don't understand is that gun control started out in America to ensure that Blacks did not have the Right or the chance to own and gun control started in Europe to ensure that the Jews couldn't fight back. Yet, they are the first to jump on the anti-gun band wagon. In a way, they are stating that the bigots and the murderers were right in what they did!
Gun ownership will ensure that there will be no more slavery or injustice in this country. Gun owership will ensure the battle cry of "NEVER AGAIN". Yet both groups embrace gun control and depend on the very governments that started the allowed things like this to happen.
*shaking head*... why, oh why do people allow themselves to be lead to their own slaughter or enslavement? Why do they distrust the people who they have an equal chance against yet trust the very governments that allowed what happened?
Sorry to go off on a tangent. I really can't understand why groups that have been used, killed, slaughted, and enslaved are the very ones that will give up the only Right that will ensure that it never happens again. And the groups that escape the governments of their countries (either first or whatever generation) which forbid the people from gun ownership and thus the people were always used as pawns, murdered or had to bow down to the government come here, gain their citizenship, and then try to ban or resrict the very tool that will ensure that this country will not become like the country they or their parents/family before them, escaped from.
I will tell you the truth, I used to be a bigot (racist). I didn't care and I didn't want anyone but my "race" (and who knows which one I'm referring to since I am Native American, Spanish, English, Irish, German, and many others) to have guns. As a matter of fact I delighted in the fact that the other cultures were told that guns were bad so that meant that I could have power over them. Then I started to talk with people, learned about people, here and over the emails, and then I learned that they, as I, were Americans. As Americans, we have a Right. This Right does not belong to just me and my culture, it belongs to us all.
That's why I like this thread. It shows us that we all have one (or more) things in common, no matter the culture. We all need to work together to get more people, all people, to stop listening to the lies of their "leaders" and to embrace the American way, which, even if the anti's and liars hate the fact, includes gun ownership.

*I hope that I didn't sound too bad. Was just typing and thinking from the heart and I don't wish to contaminate the thread. If I did, please delete. Thank you.
