NATIONAL REVIEW ^ | 03/26/18 | Jack Crowe

Rapper Vic Mensa performed at the pro-gun March for Our Lives protest in Washington, D.C. on Saturday roughly one year after he was arrested for violating concealed-carry laws.

Mensa, whose given name is Victor Kwesi Mensah, was carrying a gun when he was stopped for a traffic violation in Beverly Hills in February of last year. He presented police officers with a concealed-carry permit issued by another state that did not entitle him to carry his weapon in California.

The rap star was charged with one felony count of carrying a concealed weapon and was released on $35,000 bail after one night in jail. He pleaded no contest in July and received two years’ probation

Control NR forgot the word control. It was a pro-gun control march.

See what we need to understand about these gun grabber rallies is that the idiot protestors only want guns and weapons removed from law abiding WHITE PEOPLE.

Blacks killing other blacks by the dozens each day? Ignored by the liberal media.

It’s considered RACIST to even suggest that black on black violence may be an issue.

It’s almost as if they WANT to increase the appalling numbers of blacks getting murdered each day.

Same with abortion. Abortion is clearly black genocide. Yet liberals want more of the same.

They mean “pro gun-control March,” rather than “pro gun.” Asshats at NR. Hire a good editor why don’t ya?

Of course California doesn’t allow private citizens to get a concealed carry permit anyway, at least not typically - you have to justify to the sheriffs department why you need one and they don’t accept “to protect myself and my family.”

I’m not excusing this guy’s hypocrisy, but just saying.

Yes, he broke the California law.

But, as has been pointed out, it it a tyrannical law that should be struck down by the courts.

That’s all it’s about. They will then use them as foot-soldiers to commit genocide as Pol Pot used the peasants as the Khmer Rouge.

Does that mean he is a felon and can’t own a gun? Did he get the $35,000 back. Both seem stiff.

You missed one additional dizzying spin:

"the pro-gun March for Our Lives protest."
