Yahoo article this morning on empowered black men licensed to carry a weapon seeking racial justice. Notice in the lead pic he has his holstered pistol clipped to his gym shorts. Sure hope he doesn't have to run with his pistol hanging on his shorts. Even walking might pose a challenge.

So what does "armed and seeking racial justice" mean anyway? Does this mean engaging LEOs if they deem it necessary?
Excerpt from article: "Members of the Freedom Fighters say their objective is to avoid confrontations by working hand in hand with authorities and making clear that they are prepared to defend their community. They also say they aim to de-escalate situations so that police do not get involved, because calling the police has sometimes led to encounters in which unarmed Black men have been killed."
Yeah, this happens every day in America. They murdered a 10 YO in NOLA about a month ago. And an 8 YO in Atlanta.
90% of the shootings and murders in New Orleans (2020) are black on black. In Chicago a couple weekends ago, 50 were shot and 10 dead in two days. Must be "active community policing".
