The power of second amendment for Black Community
Democrat terrorist
The year was 1957. Monroe, North Carolina, was a rigidly
segregated town where all levels of white society and government were dedicated
to preserving the racial status quo. Blacks who dared to speak out were subject
to brutal, sadistic violence.
It was common practice for convoys of Ku Klux Klan members
to drive through black neighborhoods shooting in all directions. A black physician
who owned a nice brick house on a main road was a frequent target of racist
anger. In the summer of 1957, a Klan motorcade sent to attack the house was met
by a disciplined volley of rifle fire from a group of black veterans and NRA
members led by civil rights activist Robert F. Williams ..
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice echoed similar
sentiments in 2005 when she explained her strong support of the Second
Amendment to Larry King. “The way I come out of my own personal experience, in
which in Birmingham, Ala., my father and his friends defended our community in
1962 and 1963 against White Knight Riders by going to the head of the
community, the head of the cul-de-sac, and sitting there, armed. And so I’m
very concerned about any abridgement of the Second Amendment.”
