Barack and Jamiel

Somebody killed Jamiel Shaw Jr. with a handgun on March 2, 2008, just like the 4000 other black teenagers killed with handguns every year in the United States.

Barack Obama's support for overturning Washington's ban on handguns in Heller v. District of Columbia is one of the most important reasons why I oppose his candidacy for President.

I cannot understand how a black man could possibly support a Bill-of-Rights recognition of the individual right to bear arms, which would undermine every gun control law ever written.  
 

 

4,000 black teenagers pay with their lives every year for the power of the NRA, and when Obama comes down on the side of handguns, it seems to me that he’s betraying exactly the people he pretended to explain to the rest of us in his miserable speech in Philadelphia.














Check out the prevous tags on this diary for yet another example of harassment by Obama's little thugs on Daily Kos, in this case a specimen with the pseudonym "Inland."
