1. It's an old article.

Club co-founder Darrin Reed, who is also a member of the New Black Panthers, said more blacks are arming themselves now then in the past because the government and police have shown “they’re not able to keep drug dealers” out of African American communities.

“They failed to protect the black community,” he said

.

None the less it's still relevant. Crime does not discriminate.

3. Yeah, I noticed the date.

As you mention, still relevant. As are many dated articles, since the tactics of pro-restriction supporters......and basic facts relating to gun violence don't change much over time. (The drop in gun violence being an obvious exception.)

4. Yes --- I recall this video.

Which is why the somewhat dated article I posted is just as, if not more relevant than when it was published.

5. When seconds matter, the police are only minutes away.
