      Yeah, except they do, they did. Why does California have strict gun control laws? Because in the 1960s, the Black Panthers were open carrying, and white folks (esp. police) didn’t like it.

      If a crowd full of armed minorities had invaded Congress when Trump took power, of course hundreds or thousands would have been shot.

        They found and seized three weapons on Jan. 6th. 99% of the guns there were on government employees.
