Getting guns out of the hands of black people is one of the top goals of the anti-gun crowd, always has been. Gun control has always had a racist element to it, just look at many of the cities with the strictest gun control and look at their racial makeup (Chicago, DC, NY, etc etc etc)

This has always been a great quote IMO. It's from his book.

"Psychologically, moreover, racists consider themselves superior beings and they are not willing to exchange their superior lives for our inferior ones. They are most vicious and violent when they can practice violence with impunity."

This holds true for most any type of hate.

I had never seen the video, thanks for the link. I mentioned Robert Williams in a recent thread
//www.city-data.com/forum/polit...tent-case.html
(see post 18).

There's a very good book about Robert F. Williams by a Univ. of Wisc-Madison prof named Timothy Tyson entitled Radio Free Dixie. Highly recommended for anyone who is interested in the connections between gun rights and the 50's-60's civil rights movement.
