America has lost its goddamn mind. She's 9. Who the fucc puts an Uzi in the hands of a 9 year old? Or any gun for that matter, unless they know the kid lives in the wild and will come in direct contact with wild bears, boars or lions? What is wrong with this country? How can you not all see that you have lost your mind?     Not everyone in America is pro this $#!%.  It's the stupidest thing I think I've ever heard, which is why they win this weeks Darwin in my opinion.  The media might make you think we all agree but we don't.  Unless this is Little House on the friggin Prarie and you hunting for dinner or keeping wolves out your house, there is no reason for this.  And STILL not an UZI the hell. I understand that there are people who disagree. But I'm going with some of the comments on BHM regarding this issue that always have me gasping. Some people are so used to living in an environment where gun ownership is "a constitutional right" that they can't even fathom how fucced up the whole thing looks from the outside. It should not be a right to carry weapons designed to kill people unless there's a damn good reason for it. These people are not living in the Amazonian jungle or deep in the Congo bushes[/QUOTE] In the Congo bushes, we are not armed to the teeth. She is too young to be carrying.  I do think that its time that Black people arms ourselves.  The Black Panthers knew what was truly up.

The only reason that black people in America need to arm themselves is because this gun thing in America has gotten out of control. If all these white folks weren't allowed to open carry their guns in restaurants and supermarkets in the first place, black people wouldn't feel the need to protect themselves from out of control rednecks.

Who knows maybe 50 years from now, the gvt will realize how untenable the whole situation is and will make it mandatory for the civilian population to surrender all their guns at designated recycling spots. One can only dream. And maybe the Congo bush is not the right analogy, maybe I should have said deep in the dense jungles that the Congo is known to have. You know, away from cities, where there are actual menacing creatures to contend with?

And btw, the Congo is a pretty good example of what happens when guns are put in the hands of children by manipulative adults.
