"NRA Issues Call for White Supremacy and Armed Insurrection"

[Revoltingest]

I'm with you on this one. Don't see how this add is in any way racist, or white supremist, or condoning any armed insurrection. Unless of course skwim is referring to the individuals who are breaking windows, robbing and looting and other mayhem.

You haven't been here that long, which is why you don't see the inherent racist, white
supremacist, nationalist, cisgendered, misogynist, puppy killing agenda of the NRA.
NRA members are just foolish dupes, blinded by the propaganda, so we can't see it.
But the more left leaning hyperintelligent critics here have the conspiracy all fitured out.

Btw, can't watch videos where I am.

I wanted to rate your post both "winner" and "funny", but had to settle for one.

Well, I didn't see any calls for white supremacy, but it is definitely promoting a dangerous thinking by promoting violence against Left-winged protests and lumping them all together as violent protests.

What is wrong with it? It all rings true to me.

We have the Constitutional right to assemble and protest and shout racism and misogyny and xenophobia. But when you try to say we need violent and armed revolution against them because they turn violent so often, it's utterly and totally irresponsible. I'm very slow to call for censorship of speech, but calls to violence are where I draw the line. People going vigilante against lawful protesting is not what this country needs - pretty much we need such thinking like a starving lion needs a vegetarian buffet.

Law abiding Muslim Americans can own a firearm same as any other law abiding American.

I should hope so.

OK....finally able to watch the video.
The thread's title is dishonest click bait.
No white supremacy inference even possible by a rational sentient being.
I saw no promotion of violence at all....unless it's that in doing their job, the police would use it.
That is of course problematic because they're a blunt instrument. But in the face of leftish
violence (& anyone else's violence), it is necessary to use police powers to enforce the law.

It's not their job. It's the job of law enforcement, not vigilantes.

it is necessary to use police powers to enforce the law.

The problem with this video is the tone of feat that this is what you have to do, that all left-winged protests are violent, and you apparently have to have a gun to use against them.
That is extremely dangerous rhetoric.

You didn't quote my whole post...which specifically said it's the job of the cops (underlined portion).

That is one inference.
I hear the tone as being that we should not have cops stand idly by while leftists violently attack property & people.
The NRA message is specifically about members not remaining silent.

I think I misunderstood that part.

The video didn't show police standing idly by though.

Aye, but I also addressed problems of police, ie, they're a blunt instrument, & best avoided.
But ultimately, if someone is bent on mayhem, cops will be called, & the threat of arrest &
their violence are the prime deterrents.
A solution:
Protestors shouldn't use violence.
