White gun owners more likely to be racists: study

Washington Times ^ | November 6, 2013 | Andrea Noble

"................................Citing results that show attitudes among white people toward guns appear to be influenced by “illogical racial biases,” the study’s authors suggest that gun-control policies might need to be implemented “independent of public opinion.”

I’m betting that being critical of urban culture is “racist”.

I’m betting that being fed up with minority victimhood is “racist”.

I’m betting that being fed up with supporting a moocher class in America is “racist”...

I'll make it easier for you...BEING WHITE IS RACIST!

[G Larry]

Well....it’s got pearl handles, but I wouldn’t call it a “White gun”......

[MrB]

I’m sure it is, but I thought I’d ask -

is it “racist” of me to believe that someone will treat me with disdain because I’m white?

[ColdOne]

So all those gun owner yutes in Chicago killing each other they are racist as well?

"OK I’m white and I own three guns. Does that make me three times as racist as a white person who owns only one?"

If you are a conservative or a Republican, they'll call you a racist anyway, guns or no guns.

I’ll head to the range,but since my preferred weapon is .308-I’ll be practicing my single tap.

"I challenge Mr. O’brien to spend some time walking around alone, unarmed, well dressed, and at night in the West Chicago/ Livernois Ave area of Detroit, Michigan."

Great point, and hell, there are even worse areas than that to choose from. (I'm maybe six miles from there right now.)

"I had a white cat, must be racist."

Whaaaaaaat? You had a white cat? Dude, you might as well don a sheet with a pointy top while you're at it! Racist bastard. /s

The other day one of the local TV stations led the evening news with a story, “Hate crime in Shoreline.” What happened was that some drunk and/or mentally ill white person attacked a Korean man at a bus stop while shouting things about Japanese and Vietnamese. In other words, the assailant was an incoherent wreck, representative of nobody. The injuries to the Korean man were described is “minor.” Without intending to minimize the incident (which actually happened a week earlier), I still do not think it was the top story of the day, the day before the election. But any white-on-minority crime tickles the fancy of the media and rises to the top of the news cycle.

Just can't win I guess.

[SparkyBass]

good thing I don’t own any white guns.

[Mich Patriot]

OK I’m white and I own three guns. Does that make me three times as racist as a white person who owns only one?

Dude, I am TWICE the racist that you are. Get outta here, ya damned AMATEUR. :)

[Wonder Warthog]

And then there is the never-to-be-published headline....”Black Gun Owners More Likely to be Criminals”.

[Farnsworth]

I know, I feel so bad.........not!

[Alas Babylon!]

How about this?

[baddog 219]

Saying I’m a racist because I’m white is like saying I’m gay because I like unicorns..... Uh Wait..

[Mich Patriot]

I thought your points were perfect though.

To your question...NO - I expect to be treated with disdain because I’m white. Especially a white male...that pretty much makes me the lowest kind of scumbag on earth.

[Little Ray]

I am having fewer and fewer problems with racism.
At the rate Obama, his cronies, and his “children” are going, I’ll be extending apologies to the KKK, Aryan Nation, and Christian Identity for thinking they were pointy headed morons.
