Head-Spinning Stupidity: You Only Want Your Guns Because You’re Racist
Conservative Review ^ | April 10, 2016 | Art McGrath

Posted on 04/10/2016 9:34:25 AM PDT by Lazamataz

Liberals are always twisting themselves in knots trying to find ways to demonize gun owners and anyone they disagree with in general. Now under the guise of “new research” comes the idea that opposition to gun control is because of white resentment of minorities.

The idea and the articles really are funny, in a sad way. The Washington Post breathlessly said that researchers “found that whites were significantly less likely to support gun control measures when they had recently looked at pictures of black people, than when they had looked at pictures of white people.”

The logical flaw in that statement apparently was not evident to the intrepid staff at the Post, so anxious were they to have their preconceptions affirmed. According to this idiotic world view, whites will only support gun control if they are actively looking at pictures of black people. If only they would stop looking at those photos, things would be better for the country! When they only look at pictures of white people, support for gun control goes up, according to the Post.

Oppressing your gun is a racist microaggression.

There is research that shows people rate pictures of fat people more positively when questioned by an obese research assistant.

Subjects respond in a way to please researchers. The agenda of this allegedly unbiased researcher was clear to these subjects.

Gaw dam right. I’ve *seen* the videos of the Knock Out Game.

I've played the K O G, (and didn't get knocked out but was down for a 2 count)! It ain't fun! It's why I got out of the TV news business!

That’s counter-intuitive. If whites really were racist devils, then looking at pics of blacks would make them want more guns (less gun control), not fewer guns (more gun control). They can’t even get their b3lls$i& straight.

“yes officer, It wasn’t racist. I did not shoot him because he was a young black man. I shot and killed him because he attacked and my life was in danger of ending”

They should also read about the 5 min gun battle between the Lumbee Indians and the KKK in the 1950’s North Carolina, KKK never came back and I wonder why.
