Los Angeles crimes have seeped into the wealthiest of neighborhoods, rocking residents and being compared to dystopian movie franchise "The Purge." Residents have flocked to the city’s only gun store in response, arming themselves as a last-ditch effort for protection even though the city has a long track record of supporting liberal policies and gun control.
"Although that is a part of my living, I get no pleasure whatsoever by having a 60-, 70-year-old woman walk into my store … who looks terrified, and say, ‘I have never liked guns. In fact, I've even hated guns. I would have never considered buying one.

So, now guns are racist.

I can see what is coming. The LA mayor will hand out free guns to blacks because it is only "fair" that everyone is armed.

Aren't black thugs with guns committing the crimes?

I read Lucianne daily for my dose of " I thought I've seen everything". Blacks can't get guns in a very restrictive state.

That's a good idea #2.
If they follow the pattern they could stop black crime by the criminals taking out each other.

And so history repeats itself.
My liberal dad got his first gun in the house when the Night Stalker was at large running around raping and killing people in their homes.

I guess all those guns meant for L.A. are going to Chicago and Baltimore because blacks in those cities don't seem to have a problem getting a gun and ammo.

Clearly not true. As #3 points out, the ROOT CAUSE of the crime is crimes committed with guns, and history has shown that from 65% to 85% of these crimes are done by black people.
So, they have PLENTY of access to guns, clearly.

I'll bet no one checked but we as uhh .. non-minorities would probably encounter similar numbers when it comes to the sale of spears.

Gun control my butt. Meet me at McDonalds at 8 AM and give me 800 bucks. I'll hit the bars for a few hours. At 6PM I'll meet you at McDonald's again and give you your gun. I'll also keep at least $400 that I didn't spend on the gun.

Does anybody notice the assumption in the headline that Black LA residents are NOT wealthy?
Sort of like when Joe Biden said that "poor kids are just as smart as white kids"?

You only have 1 gun store in one of the largest cities in the U.S.?
You have only yourselves to blame!!

To be honest, this gun store has been allowed to exist for two reasons. One is it is for the rich who will make appointments to come in and purchase their guns, and two, the rich have never really wanted to buy guns in the past. That is now changing, and I am sure the store will be shut down as soon as enough wealthy folks have their weapons.

Blacks have the uncanny ability to know where the gun supply be, like an upper class kid from the suburbs knew how to score cocaine at 2 am on a Saturday night.

Freedom requires superior firepower. I support gun control. Liberals, deliver me your guns. I will control them.

-There are many gun stores in LA and in surrounding cities, probably hundreds. There is however only one in Beverly Hills which is a postage stamp compared to the LA area.
- Guns are not racists but gun control laws are racist.
- In general the guns being used in crimes are not legally owned, probably stolen.
- The people (White, Black, Hispanic, Asian etc) doing the crimes are a tiny percentage of the population still everyone including Blacks should be able to protect themselves but it not legally possible due to CA gun laws.

In my old city during the fifties and sixties, the only people who had hand guns were retired policemen for obvious reasons. When the floodgates were opened to Jamaican criminals (thanks Trudeau and Manly) suddenly crimes were committed with guns. We had never before seen anything like it. If I was still living there I would carry.

One of the first atrocities was at a neighborhood coffee shop, Just Desserts. You can google it.

The biggest goal of democrat gun control is and always was to keep guns out of the hands of blacks, regardless of criminal history. Maybe I'll take a few dozen of my old beaters to CA and beef up my retirement accounts. Free men own guns. Slaves cant.

I've quit going into gun stores, anymore.
It used to be fun to browse and discuss anything interesting with the proprietor.
Now, they are sold out with a line of idiot newbies asking stupid questions, like ''what kind of gun should I buy?''.

It is actually reversed. Illegal guns are relatively easy to buy in the hood. If you figure out how to deal with a criminal so you don't end up with no money, no gun and maybe no life. The smug liberals who are now trying to arm up can learn first hand all about the reams of gun control laws they thought were so cool. Wanting a handgun in CA and actually owning a handgun are too very different things. Carrying that handgun outside their house is another level of forms and qualifications. It is reality meets sanctimonious blather.
