Guns, Politics, and American Culture - Part 2

[Michael Yates]

Ken Lawrence's words are both moving and well-taken. Actions proper in
one context might not be proper in another.  Once when addressing a
group of glass workers, I was told not to mention gun control.  so I did
not.  After the meeting a union stalwart was selling guns out of his
truck! Best I could tell he was not a bigot or a militiaman.  On the
other hand, I have also heard that gun shows are disgusting displays of
racism.

I might add that Ken's life of struggle and solidarity with the working
class is pretty darned admirable!
