Conflicts over gun policy and over the meaning of the Second Amendment betray a deeper clash over intensely held competing cultural values, in which the cultural mythology of the frontiersman, often white and male, is pitted against the racial and class subaltern, African Americans in particular.All those victims of "gun violence"--and nary a victim of evil individuals who happen to share an inconvenient commonality to be found. This is one of the more intellectually dishonest screeds it has been my misfortune to read--but it was important to do so if for no other reason than to "know thy enemy."
We are dealing with an agenda-driven individual here, incubated at Berkeley and a true believer in Marxist tenets repackaged as "social justice."
It's not people like me who are trying to disarm other races. This is gravely offensive to those of us who have--for years--advocated unalienable rights for all.
