Be honest, you're not as concerned about black lives, youths, etc. as you are about optics, You just want to make sure that the optics show white gun owner equals responsible gun owner and black gun owner equals irresponsible gun owner. You want to make sure to frame the discussion in a racial context to incriminate the race and exonerate the weapon. IOW, please oh please please please don't put any restrictions MY toys just because some other race kills people with them!

Am I correct?
No, you are not correct.

Several of us have been having a wonderful, enlightening conversation regarding some very serious issues, issues resulting in dramatically off the scale violence and death affecting young black men in America. It appears that you are not only unable to contribute to this conversation, but on top of that, it has made you very angry. Angry to the point where you have decided to attack me rather than make any attempt to contribute.

I'm sorry, but your approach is precisely the one we have decried over the course of this conversation. You steadfastly refuse to acknowledge even the existence of this problem, even in the face of overwhelming statistical data that outlines it very clearly. You would rather conjure up some evil, self serving ulterior motives and assign them to those of us who think we need to discuss this. With angry, ignorant people like you chirping in the background like this, we have little hope of ever finding at first the underlying causes and then, hopefully, a solution. That makes me very sad.
