As Barack Obama would cause gun sales to skyrocket after every anti-gun speech for fear of our Second Amendment rights being stripped, now President-elect Donald Trumps mere vicinity to the Oval Office is causing many in the black community to arm up out out of fear their lives are in danger.

According to NBC News, gun store owners are reporting that gun sales to black and minorities customers have quadrupled since November 8th, and that many black gun groups have reported that twice as many attendees have been showing up at their meetings.

It's good to shoulder the responsibility for one's own self defense, even if it's for an imagined reason. They fear a racist backlash because that's what they do if the shoe were on the other foot. Truthfully, Obama fanned the flames of racial distinctions like no president before him and hopefully like no president in the future.

I'm glad to hear there are more black Americans choosing to exercise their 2nd Amendment rights and responsibilities. We need to embrace and welcome them to our ranks.

Of course they should be educated as to who the real racists are. The same racists that fought a war to keep and maintain slavery. The same racists that invented terror organizations to persecute freed slaves. The same racists that implemented Jim Crow. The same racists that fought to keep Jim Crow in place. The same racists that fought to keep segregation. The same racists that fought against civil rights. The same racists that stole economic opportunity and replaced it with dependency and poverty.

The same racists that are known as the Democrap Party.
