"Stand Your Ground" & the Culture of Death | National Catholic Reporter

"Stand Your Ground" & the Culture of Death | National Catholic Reporter  MSW.  MGB: This is not a culture of death thing or even a whacko gun culture thing.  This is about racism, pure and simple.  The State of Florida seethes with it.  To the extent that eugenics against African Americans is part of a culture of death, I can go along with the explanation - but it is still about race and southern whites wanting to keep blacks (and now Latinos) in line - as well as making poor whites comfortable in an economic system where they comply with the economics of their betters.  God forbid that they seek solidarity with poor people of all races to seek economic justice. Hence the NRA and other racist tools.

  1. BTW, its not the NRA, its the American Legislative Excange Council - a Koch Bros. funded group, that pushes these laws. Coincidence? I think not.
