    Is this true though?

    If there was a formal request of gun shops not to sell I'm not sure what the qualm is, unless it's with the fact that they even made such an order. In any event, that's not that guy's fault and the blame should be directed at the authorities rather than at him.

    Unless of course it was all ? , then she might have a civil rights violation case

    This doesn't surprise me. White people have tons and tons of firearms already stocked(I've seen many first hand) so I'm sure the people in power know that it would be mostly blacks/minorities trying to arm themselves in situations like these, which is why people shouldn't wait for situations like these to arm themselves

    so in America, you think "law enforcement" can tell businesses not to legally sell firearms?
    the same America, that can't pass any legislation on gun control?
    lolol

    step one: black/minorities should stop supporting politicians who furiously work to disarm them

    You have several levels of law enforcement which I really know little about
    I'm sure there are some institutions in your country that wield that kind of power

    Judging by your mockery this wasn't the case here

    ? like this is why I'm no longer anti-gun.

    And the crazy ? is why are we depending on a white company and a white man for our own protection anyway?

    Oh and soon as I read the title my first reaction was, "I bet I will believe it."

    Even beyond the clear double standard which im assuming you dont get bc you're not actually black, theres the general bullshyt: When dealing with customer service people, if the answer really is 'no', then it would be no across the board, no doubt about it. If they start on some 'ummm, we're not supposed to, it depends, let me see what i can do', it means its bullshyt.
