Ann is 75% right

Ann Coulter’s latest, Negroes With Guns:

We don’t know the facts yet, but let’s assume the conclusion MSNBC is leaping to is accurate: George Zimmerman stalked a small black child and murdered him in cold blood, just because he was black.

If that were true, every black person in America should get a gun and join the National Rifle Association, America’s oldest and most august civil rights organization.

Apparently this has occurred to no one because our excellent public education system ensures that no American under the age of 60 has the slightest notion of this country’s history.

After the war, Democratic legislatures enacted “Black Codes,” denying black Americans the right of citizenship—such as the rather crucial one of bearing arms—while other Democrats (sometimes the same Democrats) founded the Ku Klux Klan.

For more than a hundred years, Republicans have aggressively supported arming blacks, so they could defend themselves against Democrats.

There is not one word or idea in her essay that is wrong. I give her a 75% grade because she doesn’t address the sticky side of the problem: aside from this instance in Sanford Florida, the vast majority of gun crimes are committed by black people. Against everyone. And that’s the rub. And it’s not all black people at all; most of it is done by a small segment, a precise demographic in age, gender, and locale. A very tight Venn diagram. And I don’t see any kind of legal solution in sight, especially not when a very large part of that gun crime committing group attains their firearms outside of the control of the law. I’m not even saying that this is illegal, because in some instances it isn’t, although in most instances it is.  I’m just sticking up my head, waiting to be hit with the “racist” whack-a-mole mallet, pointing out that no laws, new or old, are going to stop this portion of our population from acquiring firearms. I’m also not sure that I can condemn those people from ignoring the laws in order to arm themselves.

But I can condemn the use of those arms. Using your gun to commit a crime. Being so unstable and irresponsible that you “pop a cap” in someone because they got in your way or looked at you funny? That’s insanity. Depravity. Because someone was critical of your behavior? “They dissed me!” Really? What makes you think you were deserving of kowtowing respect in the first place? Was it your fashion sense, with your bottom hanging out of your ill fitting pants?

I agree with Ann: Gun Control is Black Control. Always has been, always will be. And the vast majority of it comes from the Left. It is not the solution. The solution is Self Control. Self respect. Morals. Ethics. Honesty. Family values. Parenting skills. Enlightenment through education. Membership in a beneficent faith, not one that calls for violence against non-believers. Tolerance.

The best way to avoid violence is to not be among violent people, and to not share their way of life but to abhor it. It all boils down to knowing the difference between right and wrong, and having the drive for self improvement (character as well as financial). That’s what civilization is all about.

Even barbarian cultures know right from wrong. They have a whole set of tribal values that say Do This, Don’t Do That, honor the clan, this is what makes a boy a man, a girl a woman, this is how we raise our children, and so forth. It’s only mindless animals that use wanton violence against anything and everything, including their own. And it takes generations of concerted effort to destroy cultures, religions, family values, the drive for self improvement, the pride of self reliance, and the education system that results in degrading people to the feral level. I’m pretty sure President Johnson called that his Great Society Plan.

I’m hoping Ann now writes Part Two and fills in the gaps, earning the “A” she is more than capable of.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
  1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
  2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
  3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
  4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
