The Massacre of Wounded Knee-a lesson in gun violence that plagues this nation.

This is what the left wants. When the government takes your right to defense they own you.
quote:
These people were coming toward Pine Ridge agency, and when they were almost on the agency they were met by the soldiers and surrounded and finally taken to the Wounded Knee creek, and there at a given time their guns were demanded. When they had delivered them up, the men were separated from their families, from the tipis, and taken to a certain spot. When the guns were thus taken and the men thus separated, there was a crazy man, a young man of very bad influence and in fact a nobody, among that bunch of Indians fired his gun, and of course the firing of a gun must have been the breaking of a military rule of some sort, because immediately the soldiers returned fire and indiscriminate killing followed.
quote:
The men were separated, as has already been said, from the women, and they were surrounded by the soldiers. Then came next the village of the Indians and that was entirely surrounded by the soldiers also. When the firing began, of course the people who were standing immediately around the young man who fired the first shot were killed right together, and then they turned their guns, Hotchkill guns, etc., upon the women who were in the lodges standing there under a flag of truce, and of course as soon as they were fired upon they fled, the men fleeing in one direction and the women running in two different directions. So that there were three general directions in which they took flight.
There was a woman with an infant in her arms who was killed as she almost touched the flag of truce, and the women and children of course were strewn all along the circular village until they were dispatched. Right near the flag of truce a mother was shot down with her infant; the child not knowing that its mother was dead was still nursing, and that especially was a very sad sight. The women as they were fleeing with their babes were killed together, shot right through, and the women who were very heavy with child were also killed. All the Indians fled in these three directions, and after most all of them had been killed a cry was made that all those who were not killed wounded should come forth and they would be safe. Little boys who were not wounded came out of their places of refuge, and as soon as they came in sight a number of soldiers surrounded them and butchered them there.

I actually own guns and I'm okay with guns but your argument is really terrible. In the midst of several school shootings with assault rifles and semi-automatic weapons in general, you bring up Wounded Knee? You do realize the gun control conversation is happening cuz of current events right? I don't see a bunch of Native Americans surrounding me with muskets anytime soon

Reading stuff like that just reminds me how fortunate we are to live when and where we do. History is basically just a long, continuous stream of horrifying things people have done to each other with brief interludes of cool shite.
We have it so much better than 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% of humans who have ever lived.

It really is. That is why the 2nd amendment is what empowers the rest. The right to defend yourself and your family is what prevents you from being a slave to the government.

And this was and is one of the most radical and revolutionary ideas in the history of mankind.

That is the same left that "only wanted to get gay marriage on the ballot". Now you are a "bigot" if you are offended by a guy pissing with little girls.

Uh, within one search of the googles I can provide you with hundreds of people on the left clamoring for outright ban and confiscation of all guns.

Yes you say that now. Soon-what person hunts with a 9mm? This is the most common handgun used in driveby shootings we must ban it for you and your childrens safety. And so on, and so forth.

People don't realize it but the only reason that those people died at the school shooting is because the govt wanted them to die to confiscate all our guns.
So our gov't is already killing us and using it as a tool to outlaw guns.
There is a reason that these shootings are a relatively new phenomena. We had guns for century's and we have only had MK ULTRA for a few decades. You figure it out.

Are you seriously quoting Black Panther?
Douchebaggery at its best. The only redeeming part about that whole scene was that the UN was in Austria. You know that's not a documentary, right?

I read the book ... 'I Buried My Heart At Wounded Knee' some forty years ago and decided then not to trust government, not ever, and to never give up my 2nd Amendment Rights.
The problem is that young people have been brainwashed to both trust government and to willingly give up their freedoms.

Nailed it. With the liberal MSM sowing the seeds of discontent.

Leftists have difficulty understanding history. Many of them still think Communism is the way to go.
