I'm not seeing why it would matter.

Not the fact that the OP posted this but rather Michael Moron's desire to deem it noteworthy.

I thought we were in a post racial America now and race as an issue; defining, analytical or otherwise wasn't supposed to matter.

Even if the numbers were correct, doesn't it say more about him in a negative context for emphasizing it than it does about the complexion of gun owners?

And another thing. This current trend to shame owners by lumping us all into a group of insecure, paranoid clingers who only own guns outa fear of... something undefined is as weak and pathetic as a 12 year old attempting reverse-psychology for the first time.

We who do have concerns state clearly enough that the ownership is a matter of responsible preparedness and the sportsman/collector has no position needing defense or explanation.

Why is Michael Moron so overweight? What is he afraid of... a food shortage, rationing, big gulp bans in the future? Or within one of his own ridiculous arguments: Is he afraid - "...thinking little red head, freckle-faced Jimmy down the street is going to, you know,..." steal his next hot dog?

Too many variables and unknowns for any of those statistics to be worth spit.

Throw in % of felons by race

% of illegal guns owned by felons.

Multiple gun ownership.

and cetera...
 
I watched a little of that. He contradicted himself a lot. One of the things he said was "Guns don't kill people, Americans kill people". In an odd sort of way that's interesting. But then since "Americans kill people, they shouldn't have guns...even if it isn't the gun's fault".

He said America's gun culture was a product of "fear and racism". The presumption that white people are scared to death of non-white people and thus have armed themselves. Then he proceeded to talk about same race on same race crime and how that's the statistical norm vis-a-vis murder.

It was all an emotional rant, designed frankly to appeal to people who already have the same view. I cannot imagine that anybody changed their minds base on this drivel.
 
Well as a Hispanic I'm proud to be part of the 10%

OH NO! Someone who is not pasty white owns a firearm! We must do something about that. :)

I find it amusing when people point fingers and the people they're pointing them at are much less guilty than they. I have found gun owners and hunters alike, both to be very inclusive and not concerned at all about a person's race or ethnic background. It's the antis that bring it up all the time. Go figure.

yeah, like real men don't use seatbelts and fire extinguishers either. that's just for paranoids and the insecure


dunking chairs... i like it
 
Michael Moore is just another one of those people, whether Democrats, Republicans, etc. who use race as a tool to gain or maintain political power.

Sure, there are Whites such as the Klan, Neo-nazis, and Skin Heads who would relish the ability to kill Black people at will but, those nut cases represent just a tiny fraction of the White population in general. The vast majority of Whites aren't into that mindset at all.

Michael Moore's comments are designed to stir up the irrational fears that certain Blacks have regarding White people with guns. This therefore secures their blind support of the socialist agenda of the extreme left, in this case the systematic and total disarmament of American citizens.
 
He begs the question.. and the answer is that guns are kept from certain people (blacks) by certain (political party) people. capice?
 
If we use the same (failed) logic used to prove that border protection is racist, we could conclude that since big cities tend to have the most gun control and the highest concentration of minorities, gun control is inherently racist. We could also claim that anyone promoting gun control is racist, whether they realize it or not. Now, I'm not saying that Michael Moore is a big fat racist, but as he is fond of saying, everything that I said is true - you draw your own conclusion. ;)
 
And that's exactly how people like him want it to stay. White elitists like Mikey prefer that racist gun laws stay in place because they are frightened of minorities, especially if those minorities are armed. It doesn't hurt that keeping brown people disarmed helps to reinforce the status of victimhood that keeps the leftist status quo in place.
 
Does anybody actually take Micheal Moore seriously these days? I know I don't. He's never really been relevant and he's even further from it now.
 
History shows that the origin of many gun control laws is racist.
A significantly higher % of African-American males have been arrested/imprisoned as compared with whites. Also there is a fair bit of disparity in income between the races, and in many states it is expensive to get a gun permit. The states that have the fewest restrictions on gun ownership tend not to have large urban populations with higher percentages of non-white citizens. All of these factors tend to skew the % of gun owners based on race. From the point of view of activism, this suggests to me how about reaching out to someone of a different background and introducing them to the shooting sports? This would be a good way to stick it to Michael Moore!
 
We had very good prices on guns & ammo at K-Mart until this guy got them to stop selling them----you probably have a good idea what I think of him
 
Yeah, all those scared white people. Like his bodyguard who got busted with an illegal gun in NY.
I wonder how that ended. Prolly got off scott free. I hope not.
 
Mixed Race

I wonder if the 90% takes into account that many "white" people are actually mixed. I don't think you will find many "white" people that don't have at least a small percentage of "other" in their family tree. So for example myself being 1/16 Cherokee Indian if I own 16 guns would that not mean that 15 are "white" guns and 1 would be "Indian." Now since only 1.2% of the US population is "Indian" would my example not adjust the figure toward Indian?

I think the real story here is that the Left looks at things as groups like white, black, latino, etc... when the fact is that when you look at things that way you are in fact being racist. The left loves to throw out words like "racial profiling" when they are in fact the true racist. The left thrives on exclusion. By making minorities think they are being excluded they increase their voting base and then implement more policies that will farther exclude minorities so they can keep their voting base.
 
Racist invective from a pathetic white man who pretends himself non-racist in his thoughts and motives. From the moment in BFC when he used clever editting and slanted rhetoric to make Chuck Heston (a bona-fide civil rights advocate and crusader) appear a dottering cracker he made his true colors known. He's a bully filled with bizarre self-hate for being a white guy and these days, even hard-core Michael Moore supporters are shaking their heads. He needs help.

And if he is, by chance, right ~ so what? If someone wants to spearhead an outreach to get more 'people of color' (or anyone else for that matter) into the shooting sports, go to town if that's your passion.

Yeah, he's all over the map with his mouth. It's like his synapses are firing out of sync. Sometimes he has a statement that make you say "Oh. Wow. That makes sense". Then follows it up with some lunacy that makes you wish you never watched him to begin with.

Not that bizarre. If Moore hates himself, he's got ample reason to. He is [among other things] a:
  1. bully
  2. coward
  3. hypocrite
  4. liar
He needs help.

He won't be getting it. Dr. Kevorkian's dead.
 
I have no idea how Michael Moore knows who owns the majority of the firearms, but I suspect they are owned primarily by white's. It is often a affuence thing and that has been the case for 100 years.

Whether or not that is an argument for gun control I have no idea, but I generally would take an opposite view if you want to generalize.
 
well... african-americans only account for 12% of the u.s. population.
a not insignificant % is also locked up in prison for various reasons.

whites (incl. asians/latinos) account for the rest.

so 88% of the population owning 90% of the guns is not that concerning...

it would be interesting if 12% of the population would own 30% of the guns... but then again - Michael Moore wouldn't write an article about that.

We are also talking about legal guns.... the gun ownership in South Central LA and the South Side of Chicago is also there.... but less official
