Washington Post: Second Amendment Exists to Keep White Supremacists On Top

March 9, 2018| by Donn Marten

I there is a more consistently anti-American newspaper in the land than the Washington Post it would hard to say what it is.

Not only has Pravda on the Potomac waged a two-and-a-half-year propaganda war on President Trump but the paper just recently abandoned any pretenses of what it really advocates with a column calling for the imposition of socialism.

On Friday, the paper provided a forum for a guy named Nathan Wuertenberg who took the big leap that the Second Amendment exists to protect white supremacy.

Liberals are obsessed with race. And as a result, they are finding themselves in a ever shrinking bubble. This is also reflected in the news media. Instead of expanding their viewership and readership levels, they've decided to just appeal to those that share their worldview

The article is so egregiously stupid and bereft of basic common sense you have to wonder why even hardcore libs would print this trash.
Would a nation dominated by white supremacists allow non-whites to become multi-millionaires and billionaires and own numerous mansions, cars, planes, etc.. including the wherewithal to purchase as many firearms as they wanted?
I know most libs can't deal with reality, but this one is so far over the line of sanity a person might conclude the people who run the WashPo are as insane as the writer of the screed.

Has the author actually looked at any statistics on gun violence?  I would bet if he had, he would find out that the perpetrators are more likely minorities, not white supremacists.   Just look at all the killings in Chicago.  And he might also find that in the mass shootings like Vegas, the perps were not white supremacists.  They were usually people with mental illness and a good many of their victims were white.

The author, Nathan Wuertenberg, is a college history professor.  In other words, he is a history revisionist.  He doesn't teach; he just disseminates propaganda.

Oh and by the way, in the shooting yesterday at a California VA facility -- it appears the shooter was of Asian descent.

Facts and stats are irrelevant.  The intent is to sow the idea into the minds of your average millennial, and SJW/BLM imbeciles.  Establishing a narrative that cannot be shaken and is completely devoid of logic, common sense and facts while at the same time - demonizing your political and skin-colored enemy in the minds of your future Schutzstaffel is the intent of bullshit like this.

One you have sown the narrative that Michael Brown was a sweet and unarmed black yute killed because he was black - you cannot shake that "fact" from the minds of the unthinking masses who get their news from Marxist Activists using the media as their tool.

Once they can sow the narrative in the minds of the unthinking that the Second Amendment is what permits White Supremacists and Privilege to harm and enslave innocent diverse peoples of color and sex preferences - it just adds yet another wedge idea that will lead to the massive applause of its eventual abolishment.

I've had this argument thrown at me that the entire purpose of the Second Amendment was to protect slave owners from slave revolts.  To which I reply, "That must be why the Second Amendment was so important to people in Massachusetts and New York."   

Then the liberal goes on about the "landed gentry" and that's when I tell them to STFU and leave me alone.  All they prove is those who are envious of what others have worked for have always been with us.

Sooooo,by extension gun control laws exist to put Black Supremacists on top?

There was only minuscule amount of blacks, slaves or otherwise (the otherwise predominated) above the Mason-Dixon line at the time of the revolution.
These leftist academics are getting nuttier and nuttier.
