Organizers said up to 1,000 legally armed citizens will descend on Greenwood to pay homage to the armed Tulsans who died defending the neighborhood during the Tulsa race massacre in 1921.

They said the march is about unifying the Black community, not about sparking fear or intimidation, but they are willing to act in self-defense if they need to. “Never again. This is the purpose of the guns," said Nick Bezzel with the Elmer Geronimo Pratt Gun Club. "Never again will you come into a neighborhood, a Black community, and massacre people the way you did Greenwood, even the red summer in Chicago.”
"They said the march is about unifying the Black community, not about sparking fear or intimidation"

Wrong!

Seems like there is some posturing LARP nonsense going on with that group.

In light of the negligent discharges, one of the NFAC leaders recorded a video attempting to show why the negligent discharges happened, and simply ended up displaying his own extreme ignorance with his own firearms. Double derp, derpity derp!

That said, I support peaceful non leftist Americans of all races to support their 2nd amendment rights. I also endorse people that have weapons actually know something about them (unlike some NFAC "leaders")

If the bolt stops before fully seating and I use the forward assist to seat the bolt, does that also cause the weapon to fire?

Based on the instructional video, it seems a likely scenario since the firing pin doesn't actually serve any real purpose.

I'm very pro-gun (own several) and a lifetime NRA member, but I honestly can see how people interpret the 2nd Amendment in so many widely different ways. Everything from prohibiting private citizens from owning firearms to letting anyone who wants one to get one with no vetting or registration. The wording of the 2A is so vague, almost any position can be defended. I prefer to defend firearm ownership from a common sense standpoint: guns are only as dangerous as the person pulling the trigger, tens of millions of people love sport shooting/hunting, there are hundreds of millions of guns in this country and only a tiny percentage have been used to commit a crime, and guns level the playing field in terms of self defense. To me, these are far more compelling arguments than citing the 2nd Amendment. The irrationally hysterical anti-gun crowd aren't going to change their minds no matter what. They'd rather close their eyes, put their hands over their ears, and yell "nah nah nah, I can't hear you" then have a rational discussion about guns.


The words are very simple.

"the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."

Whatever rights the militia has to keep and bear arms is not addressed by this document.

White person's from the south side of Tulsa stole property and destroyed the remaining properties of the Black Wall Street section of North Tulsa and the African American citizens was not given reparations......
they always hide behind a white woman as the reason for violence against Black people back then

they can call them whatever they want but the reality is back in 1920 whites and Blacks were segregated and didn’t get along for obvious reasons.

I know its a political board but still.. this wasn’t about Dems or GOP.
