re: #334 Belafon

Only white people own guns, but anyone can own a stick.

That will be interesting if it makes it to yhe Supreme Court. Here in Texas, it’s illegal to carry martial arts weapons. I’m pretty sure they’ll argue something about gangs and the need to regulate those differently and not see the irony.

I take it the first line is sarc? Anyway one point against the laws that banned inexpensive handguns was that it set up exactly what you said. Only elites could have guns, deliberately priced out of the range of the honest poor. Code for black Americans really. As if drug sales funded gang would be impaired….
