You’ve got to let the police do their jobs, number one. Number two, you have to do a policy of stop and frisk. When you see a guy coming down the street and you can — the police know every one of them. They know their middle name. They know where they live. They know every one of them, the local police, and they’re great.

You got to let them do their job, stop and frisk, and take their gun away. You’ve got to do it. If somebody has because they have all these guns — you know, it’s very interesting, the toughest gun law, the toughest, by far, in the whole United States is in Chicago, and yet it’s the most — it’s —

Let all your Republican 2Aer friends and family know.

    Everybody calm down. There’s a reason that the 2Aers won’t get mad about this.

    This is as racist of a dog whistle as you can get. Lots of people are aware “stop and frisk” really means “stop and frisk minorities and plant drugs and weapons when you can.”

    So it’s perfectly in line with the “law and order” bullshit. Don’t expect a lot of anger about these comments. To the shitheads, these comments are directed at the “right” people. Cops wouldn’t stop and frisk them, they think, because cops know that they’re a law abiding citizen by the color of their skin.

    Racists gonna fuckin racist, man. First gun control we ever got in the USA was because white people got freaked out by black people with guns.

      You might be able to chip a few away by calling him a “gun grabber.” They probably won’t vote for Harris, but they won’t vote for Trump either. They might just sit it out.

      Chip a few away here and a few away there… that might be all that’s needed.

    If they know these people are active criminals they will have no problem citing just cause for arrest and search.

    I live in Canada, our gun rules are different than the USA. This week in my city some charges against a dangerous criminal were dropped because the police had a “flagrant disregard for charter rights” (according to the judge) (oir charter rights are similar to American civil rights)

    They searched him improperly, and found a loaded, illegal gun. Charges dismissed. If they had handled it properly they could have made the charges stick. What a waste of everyone’s time. Police didn’t respect his rights because they don’t respect my rights.

      Oh yeah it’s going to make him real popular with the second amendment people. LoL

      I think it’ll be hilarious if Kamala Harris released a statement saying that unlike Trump she will never take your guns away. 🤣

        They have turned their brains off, if they were ever on in the first place. Back when I was on reddit I was arguing with so-called “libertarians” who claimed Donald would protect their gun rights. Of course I was banned because they are actually Repubs cosplaying as libertarians. Banning me was a violation of the NAP, BTW.

        98% of them are completely unaware of this or know he’s only go after the other people and never theirs

        I think it’ll be hilarious if Kamala Harris released a statement saying that unlike Trump she will never take your guns away.

        While that would be a nice sting to the other side, that would alienate part of her base who are all for gun laws.

          You can be pro gun law and still say “We aren’t going to take your guns.” Gun laws don’t prevent gun ownership and don’t enable confiscation of guns from lawful owners. They simply ensure that mentally unstable people or those with criminal backgrounds cannot buy one legally.
