    why would if be insane, it's a constitutional right, that is what the founder envisioned is everyone owning a gun wild west style

    one of the reasons Marijuana was banned was because mostly brown people used it back then

    LOL at you saying that only a few accidental police killings will make the news and you ran away from what you posted.

    Oh, and the police initially stated that they killed the criminal, then stated that they got the wrong man, then stated that the innocent victim was brandishing a gun, then stated that he was not brandishing a gun. Still waiting for you to provide one link to a white "good guy with a gun" being killed by police and I'll allow a link being 2 years old for you to claim a victory.

    "Few" is relative compared to how many, over a thousand every year.
    Oh and I didn't make any claims about who did what.
    I believe several times I said to wait and see what happened.

    There are not "over a thousand" accidental killings by police every year. Every accidental killing by police is reported. Why do you keep running away from your claim that you only hear about it when a black man is accidentally killed?
    Your post "If, in fact they did happen, you won't hear about it.
    It's only news when they can make it racist."

    LOLOL

    Why do you keep changing stuff.
    I an not interested in playing stupid games with you.
    There are over 1000 police shootings every year, easily googled.
    The circumstances are different for each one.
    You have to look at them case by case.

    Changing stuff? This thread is about the "good guy with the gun" being killed by police. Other than you running away from your claim, no one is referring to all police shootings

    Totally irrelevant statistics for when a cop comes on the scene,...
    where a white killer massacred Jews and shot multiple cops gets arrested
    but a black security guard gets killed on the spot by the cops for doing his job.

    White people still kill more people than black people.

    actually they don't.
    I can post FBI stats.
    and what's sad is there are 5 times more whites than blacks,
    And blacks commit more murders,

    We have a few different stats, depending on how it is played. What years are posted.
    However all the numbers are close to even, when the population of whites is 5 times more.

    • “Blacks are seven times more likely than people of other races to commit murder, and eight times more likely to commit robbery.”
    • “When blacks commit crimes of violence, they are nearly three times more likely than non-blacks to use a gun, and more than twice as likely to use a knife.”
    • “Of the nearly 770,000 violent interracial crimes committed every year involving blacks and whites, blacks commit 85 percent and whites commit 15 percent.”
    • “Blacks commit more violent crime against whites than against blacks. Forty-five percent of their victims are white, 43 percent are black, and 10 percent are Hispanic. When whites commit violent crime, only three percent of their victims are black.”
    • “Blacks are an estimated 39 times more likely to commit a violent crime against a white than vice versa, and 136 times more likely to commit robbery.”
    • “Blacks are 2.25 times more likely to commit officially-designated hate crimes against whites than vice versa.”

    Overall. White people kill more than black people. You disputed that. I sourced that it's true. And what you put up doesn't dispute that. You're just deflecting.

    Actually it's so close to even, it changes a little with time, apparently going back and forth, depending on the study.

    I'm not going to argue who killed more, because that changes.
    what I will point out is they are almost the same.

    Making blacks 5 times more likely to commit murder than whites.

    Being 12.3% of the population and getting 47.4% of the pie . . .

    Irrelevant?

    No. The link reports that Trevor Noah said that ‘The Second Amendment was not made for black folks.’ I just don't know what @Starjet was referring to when they asked, "why does this keep happening."

    It's an extract from the link, and the title of the thread is the title of the link as required by forum rules!

    Individuals killed for not having the right skin color.

    We don't burn witches at the stake anymore because our reason has taught us how monstrously evil it was. So it is incomprehensible to me--in an age of technological marvels, fantastic human achievement, societies and cultures so rich that the wealthy aristocrats of the 19th century would be looked upon as peasant paupers today--that racism still exists. That anyone can freely choose to be so blatantly and willfully ignorant of what is moral and of what is not, of what is right and of what is wrong, of what is reason and is unreasonable, is unconscionable.

    Skin color is not an achievement; it's an accident of birth. Start thinking and live right.

    Ayn Rand: "A genius is a genius, regardless of the number of morons who belong to the same race—and a moron is a moron, regardless of the number of geniuses who share his racial origin."

    Its just that you didn't put that in your OP. It looked like you were asking, why does Trevor Noah keep saying that the Second Amendment was not made for black folks.

    Hmmmm. Ok. . In the article on the shooting of a black man, Trevor asks, "How does this st keeping happening? I post: "He has a point. Why does this keep happening".

    Don't know how to make it any clearer. Teach me.
