Don't let forum trolls make you feel hopeless. Hillary won the popular vote, and she won despite being one of the least popular candidates ever, and Trump pulled less votes than Romney. It ain't over till it's over.

Don't forget that gun ownership and using a gun for "self defense" are really only for white men. Women using guns on their domestic abusers, and black people using guns on white people for any reason is going to be actually investigated and the bar for "self defense" claims set a few thousand meters above that for a white guy in the same situation.

Black men open carrying is what got gun control in California. So carry, know the rules and get whitey to disarm themselves (actual results may vary).

FactsAreUseless posted:Do you carry for self-defense? Do you know people who have needed to use a gun to defend themselves? This isn't a challenge, it's curiosity. I personally don't carry, as I have "issues" between me and guns, after using them in a very destructive manner. I believe 99% of the time, guns should never be owned or used. BUT, I still have 3 handguns for that 1% of the time. This is that 1%. And I've had to defend myself with a gun before. Multiple times. It's the nature of war.

We also need a system that completely circumvents this. As in, if someone rightfully defends themselves from the police or racists, we help get them off the grid, Assata Shakur style.

KTVU channel 2 was showing protests in San Francisco this morning with GA students that walked out to protest the election. A whole procession of rightly angry young prior of color flipping off the camera and mouthing "gently caress this country /President" (audio was cut). It abruptly went back to the frantic news anchor who was making the 'cut! Cut!' gesture before realizing she was on air and she apologized for the explicit language and gestures. Frankly I think they should've just aired it.

FactsAreUseless posted:The effectiveness of guns for personal defense is pretty debatable, just looking at the statistics, but that's looking at the population as a whole. (And when I say "debatable" I really do mean "up for debate." Good gun stats are hard to come by.) I don't know if it's been studied for minority populations, specifically, which might be different. Of course, it's hard to deny the symbolic or psychological importance of carrying a weapon. But keep in mind that most handgun deaths are self-inflicted, so if you have a history of suicidal thoughts, keep that in mind. It still might be something worth considering, especially if you know you can't count on police protection, and someone with more experience with guns could speak to it. Maybe TFR? Nah, I defy the trans stereotypes pretty hard and have never had suicide/depression issues at all. I just always depended on the fact that I could violently beat people up to keep me safe and the things I'm hearing about make me feel like I can't trust my fists anymore. I've been followed a couple times to day and I do not like how scared and helpless it made me feel. I've never felt that before.

I don't think more guns is the answer, I think guns are part of the problem. I also understand you have every right to want to defend yourself from real threats. I just think carrying a gun is going to result in it being more likely that you're going to be shot.

I had a bunch of poo poo typed up, and it brought too much baggage to this thread that doesn't deserve it. It's been a little while since I've been there but the last topic around race and the DNC was that Hillary was such a terrible candidate that she couldn't even get minority voters. I can't remember if it was USPOL or Election but in one of the threads it was discussed that relying on minority votes to carry you is a mistake, anyway.

There's only like a couple threads I frequent in D&D (I can keep up with USPOL but Dad Chat is a lost cause) and the only time I've ever looked at CSPAM was when the USPOL thread was closed. I've never even seen a quarter of those people post before.

My big piece of advice is that if your'e going to get a gun for self defense, actually learn how to use it and practice so you can hit the target. The only good thing about white trash gun nut fuckos is that most of them can't hit the broad side of the barn. Firing from the inside. With the doors closed. I've seen them at the gun range, some of those fuckers miss a human-sized sheet of paper at 7 goddamn yards.

xthetenth posted:I was unaware of these? Gandhi's books repeatedly have mentions of how distraught he was that Indians were being conflated with South Africans and other 'kaffirs' because Indians are superior. Kaffir is basically the n-word of choice in those parts. Dude was a huge racist. E: I remember this really well because my dad was Indian and he had a bunch of books by Gandhi himself, and I remember the awkward conversation that followed when I asked my dad what that word meant.

I can hit 26/30 on target dual wielding 2 M9 Barettas at 25 yards. I'm only 11/16 using 2 M1911's. I'm pretty good. Boxing honestly helps you more with shooting than anything else. Understanding how you shoot from the shoulder down with handguns and how to aim properly on the move is the biggest thing.

quote:[Europeans wish to] to degrade us to the level of the raw kaffir whose occupation is hunting, and whose sole ambition is to collect a certain number of cattle to buy a wife with, and then, pass his life in indolence and nakedness. Yeah, Gandhi was a massive racist, like, actually a white supremacist. quote:We believe also that the white race in South Africa should be the predominating race. quote:We were marched off to a prison intended for Kaffirs. There, our garments were stamped with the letter “N”, which meant that we were being classed with the Natives. We were all prepared for hardships, but not quite for this experience. We could understand not being classed with the whites, but to be placed on the same level with the Natives seemed too much to put up with.

Knowing that your shoulder leads to your hand and shooting a gun aiming wise is like throwing a jab. After that its learning breath control (same way you do in boxing) and fine tuning.
