The 1619 history narrative, in two steps: 1. Did it happen in America/the colonies? 2. Did it happen after 1619? If yes, then obviously the only possible explanation is racism and protecting slavery. Don't you dare show me any primary documents!!!
Frequent MSNBC guest and activist Rev. Mark Thompson said Monday on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” that the Second Amendment was established to prevent slave insurrection.JOY REID: You have the right, the Republican Party, Fox News all saying, buy more guns and then use them.
THOMPSON: Yeah, yeah. Well, and you have, as Reverend Sharpton said, you have people of all races. These were white children that were killed here in Tennessee. All nine, because of an obsolete amendment that was established really, people need to read the history, do your homework folks. The hidden history of the Second Amendment by Professor Carl T. Bogus. An amendment–the Second Amendment was meant to prevent slave insurrection and slave rebellions.
So that is what this is really all about. It is depraved culture. It is tragic, and might I also say, we have to tie all this up, the gun violence is in the streets, the gun violence in the schools, the gun violence on the part of the police. Grand Jury today decided not to charge eight officers who fired 96 shots at Jayland Walker last June and hit him 46 times and killed him. So this gun culture is a very sick one and we must continue to do something about it.
