wrong. if you're properly licensed or legally carrying a gun and shoot someone in a clear cut self-defense situation like breaking into your home, attempted carjacking, armed robbery or unprovoked assault (not some bs like they called you a b1tch which led to an argument fight and shooting) you're not just going to get locked up locked up like you're saying.
i ain't moving nowhere. have you even thought about what it takes to relocate? the cost, the risk, employment, quality of life, the crime at said new location? i bet you can't even think of one country where the overall risk is lower than staying in the us and moving to a better neighborhood...or investing the effort to clean up where you currently live. dudes act like just picking up and moving is easy as changing a tire.
again. you are going off of what the LAW SHOULD BE in theory. not actually what it is in real life. you are correct. you SHOULD be able to defend your black self with deadly force if need be. BUT we all know how they do black folks in this country. that means if you had to shoot a white man trying to get you. unless dude was a serial killer/rapist, or known criminal with a huge rap sheet. you will only have a 50/50 chance of getting off as a black man. those are terrible odds for an innocent man. those are odds that make innocent black men take plea deals for shorter terms.
DA says "Ok, look, you take this manslaughter that comes with 5 years and 5 years probation. you'll be out on good behavior in 3 at the worse... OR we can go to trail and if you lose.... well you'll get 20 years to life."
guess what happened to that chick who shot the supposed warning shot. she probably should've taken the plea deal. you see the numbers she just got. and no one even died. WOW.
its multiple things working against you in america as a black man with a gun if you killed someone especially if you pop a white person that doesnt have a super rap sheet. they have a prison business they need you work in for little to nothing like the slave they think you are. so they need to railroad a certain number of us just on that alone. to keep their numbers up. they also have to keep the numbers up to make for good reasons why they need more OT and more officers on the police and better weapons, gear, squad cars, helicopters, etc. you're just a part of the game black male.
then its the white man fear of a black man racism thing that kicks in. some are afraid of us because they know what their forefathers did to us. they know what they currently do to us. and they feel it in their spirits that one day the chickens will come home to roost. why do you think crazy white folks always talking about "are you trying to start a race war" when they talk to black leaders that are a bit more aggressive then say MLK. shoot they said that about MLK back then too.
then there are the racist that just sees black people in general as LESS THANS. so they dont care enough about us to help us get a fair shake. its like "better you then me." its like if you found out a random dog went to jail for 20 years. you wouldnt bat an eye.
again i still didnt say DONT STRAP UP. i'm just saying understand what it means when you do. be prepared. dont be stupid. get you a lawyer before it goes down. JUST IN CASE. i'm saying if you're black and you decide to strap up for good reason. fine. but also strap up with a lawyer. if you cant afford a lawyer. do not strap up.unless you dont care about going to jail.
