Malcolm X on the Second Amendment

[Moot]

Malcolm X was also the one who said they should start shooting cops during the Civil Rights Era. . . He's no better than any tyrant.

Hard to be a tyrant when you're defenseless and not in a position of power. His quotes seem more like he wanted justice for blacks, than just power for himself.

Which should tell you something about the race, but I am sure the fear and guilt of "racism" precludes your acceptance of reality.

No they didn't. Her post is full of it and is laughable at best. Again she is confusing two different times and law abiding people with gangbangers, drug dealers and criminals. Had nothing at all to do with what Malcolm X said.

I don't have fear and guilt of racism....but you seem to.

Not much has changed in the black community in 40 years. The cycle of poverty in Malcolm's day is still alive and well today.....

"...His legacy endures because many black men feel as beleaguered today as they did 40 years ago. According to the Community Service Society of New York, nearly half of the city's black men ages 16-65 were jobless in 2003. Among black undergraduates, men were just 38% of those enrolled. And you can hardly talk to a brother without hearing a racial-profiling story.

The sense of siege eludes data, but it is all too real for the men who experience it. For them, the strident Malcolm X makes sense. "Sitting at the table doesn't make you a diner, unless you eat some of what's on the plate. Being here in America doesn't make you an American," he once said. "Nobody can give you freedom. Nobody can give you equality or justice or anything. If you're a man, you take it." There's that "living, black manhood" that Davis spoke of, the "stormy, controversial and bold" black man whose life and words were the embodiment of challenge and evolution...."

Do blacks need to defend themselves more today, than they did in Malcolm's day? Apparently, not. The only real difference seems to be the abundance of guns making their homicide and crime rate a lot higher.

Malcolm X talked about Democrats....

"...What is a Dixiecrat? A Democrat. A Dixiecrat is nothing but a Democrat in disguise. [...] The Dixiecrats in Washington, D.C., control the key committees that run the government. The only reason the Dixiecrats control these committees is because they have seniority. The only reason they have seniority is because they come from states where Negroes can’t vote. This is not even a government that’s based on democracy. It is not a government that is made up of representatives of the people. Half of the people in the South can’t even vote. Eastland is not even supposed to be in Washington. Half of the senators and congressmen who occupy these key positions in Washington, D.C., are there illegally, are there unconstitutionally...."

"A vote for a Democrat is a vote for a Dixiecrat. That’s why, in 1964, it’s time now for you and me to become more politically mature and realize what the ballot is for; what we’re supposed to get when we cast a ballot; and that if we don’t cast a ballot, it’s going to end up in a situation where we’re going to have to cast a bullet. It’s either a ballot or a bullet." - Malcolm X



Interesting, the vast majority of Dixiecrats switched to Republican after the signing of the Civil Rights Act in 1964...the same year that Malcolm X made those quotes.

Your attempt, to weasel-word your way out of a totally ****ed up thread and topic, will fail.

Another failed attempt to deflect the racism of this thread onto someone else.
