Summary
White supremacist Avi Rachlin used racist slurs during a Michigan Senate committee hearing, claiming proposed gun legislation unfairly targets white people while suggesting lawmakers focus on Black communities in Detroit.
Representing the extremist group “Groypers for America,” Rachlin falsely argued the bill was retaliation against white Trump supporters.
His comments, including the use of the N-word, were condemned by lawmakers, with Sen. Jim Runestad calling the remarks inappropriate.
The committee ultimately advanced the bill, which would expand the ban on firearms in Michigan’s Capitol, initially requested after armed protests in 2020.
I see… What cabinet position will he now be nominated for?
Undersecretary of CRT
A man he is not. Ignorant brat child he is
Weird, because historically gun control happens when white people get scared a black man has the same rights as them.
Just ask Dredd Scott v Sanford , or Ronald Reagan.
Arm all oppressed peoples
easiest way to implement gun control, arm black people en masse and make sure to advertise it
There was an episode of Bojack Horseman titled Thoughts and Prayers in which during a rise in mass gun violence, the Government is debating gun control. It doesn’t appear to be going anywhere until (following some sub-plotlines) there’s a huge surge in women owning handguns for self-protection and empowerment. The govt then pretty quickly moves to ban all guns.
Quote from the summary: “A senator asks what his constituents are supposed to do, not compliment random women on the street? and says they can’t live with that kind of fear.” and “Diane then says she can’t believe this country hates women more than it loves guns.”

Ever heard of the black panthers? The state only allows this kind of thing for pale people.
It wasn’t just that they had guns. It’s that they stood there armed, watching people get arrested, and started reading rights. It’s not enough to have guns, you need to use those guns as an implicit threat while brazenly not only following the law, demanding the cops do so as well
Republicans tripped over each other to enact gun control when they saw organized and arm black people excersiding their right to bare arms.
It feels like 70% of US laws and agencies were motivated by racism and oppression of minorities.
“It is racial because the people who carry in the Capitol are primarily white people“
Because the black ones are accosted and harassed if they’re armed? Something I heard a long time ago was that whites fear becoming a minority because they know how minorities are treated. I just find it odd that they use that as a reason to obsessively cling to power instead of trying to make everyone’s lives better.
Back in 2020, Democratic lawmakers requested a change to firearm regulations in the Capitol when armed demonstrators and militia members went into the building demanding an end to COVID-19.
Funny how gun laws and gun restrictions are okay when it comes to protecting lawmakers, but not okay when it comes to protecting schoolchildren.
