a lot to cover and very little time. the 7 years (french Indian) war, Napoleonic wars, WWI,... are all glossed over in both US and world history classes that and there are certain groups that don't want to show guns in a positive lite but I wish stories like this were in the sidebars of our history textbooks.

Read the book "A Peoples History of the United States." Lots of history that is omitted from education.

It's often important not to forget that history in school is divided between american, state and local history through various grades. It's eeked out in bits to suit the grade levels. Anything beyond that is floated to elective classes one can take in high school and beyond. While it's important to be inclusive about the good and bad in US and state history, there is a lot of it and to decry missed opportunities that we, we could have, ourselves missed out of in learning this stuff, is on us. This in-depth history is available in school, if only as an elective. If one to ignore the many options in university, well that's because we really didn't care, and that has to be learned this way, or by our elders.

nobody died. its not that big of a deal. the klan would be attacked anywhere the police don't protect them.

You have to wonder why these stories are omitted. Almost like there might be underlying agendas from pervasive and deeply-entrenched beliefs.

This Aussie thanks you for your service.

I second that brother...!!!

It's astonishing. It's also astounding that we are hearing of this history for the first time via this great channel.

My wife is full Lumber. When I showed this video, she knew all about this incident. And she was adopted at a very young age by an awesome non-native family. The Lumber people are very interesting and have an amazing history of self betterment and growth. They have had a history of independence when many native peoples did not. From the 1500"s onward they were never subjected the the level of outside control that most others were. They had their own bank and their own university. Most were literate long before most other native people were. And the Lumbees were often looked on and accepted as regular members of society long before others. Thanks for letting me rant on. Peace

the lumbee murder rate is 5x the national average. you all like to fight. the kkk should have done their research before messing around there.

Met some during my time in nc. Quite apart from being exceptionally good looking in a fierce way they were very polite, chatty and welcoming of my interest in them. I had read up on the tribe prior to arriving. I have to say meeting them was my highlight of the visit.

Thank you for being so awesome.

I do also think it's a positive someone in the gun community it's speaking out of line I would say of the current NRA? Like Philando Castile...where was the NRA when that happened? Why wasn't the gun community outraged? I don't have that answer for you, but I got a guess or two...

youre native to your own culture ❤️ and they’re all beautiful in their own ways!!

In the UK anyone who wants to own any sort of firearm , has to prove they are of Good Carachter. I can't see a problem with that concept, provided it applies to everyone.

Please consider sharing what state you are from. Thank you for sharing this anecdote.

When I inherited my Father's firearms I almost left a pistol purchase permit in his hand in the casket so I could sarcastically tell someone dig up my dad but since I was executor I had to have my own in my own posession.

@Aniquin NC also for a while was one of the states that required you to either get permission or inform (forgot which) your CLEO of machine gun purchases regardless of what the current federal legislation was at the time (ie: trust could avoid CLEO). actually, that still might be the case, NC isn't an incredibly pro-gun state but it's still not as bad as like NJ, NYC, or Cali. it's honestly just not a good state overall. too many people, not enough land, cities aren't *really* cities, humid, income tax, very much so a purple state with corrupt official on all sides, poorly funded public education system with many politicians being anti-education. the whole state I attribute to being like a "rural home owners association."

This still exists in NC! You can either go through the more standard buying process, or have the Sheriff's office pre-screen you so you don't have to wait for the store to background check you. Same wording and everything. $5.

I work with someone named Oxendine (and from North Carolina) who pronounces it the same as what you said. It never occurred to me that he might be Lumbee, though he looks like he could be Simeon's (pronounced the same as "Simon") relative.

It is most likely just a quirk of accent, All the Lumbee you know probably speak their native tongue or at least exposed to it on a daily basis.

@Russian Bot #568984Normally I would agree on 1st Amendment grounds. But the gathering was with the INTENT to cause a riot. The quote by the "leader" admits to wanting to cause fear. That's literally terrorism.

@Russian Bot #568984 The "gathering" was a predecessor to an attack. This isn't the first time KKK done shit like this. They have a rally, then at the climax of their gathering, they burn some house down and kill some minorities. Then burn their cross and run off. It may be unprovoked in the strictest sense, but everyone know what would have happened if the Lumbee were unarmed and not resisting. The specifics doesn't mean much if you ignore the context. The KKK is a violent group that have killed plenty before

Did the klan have a permit? And if their rally was peaceful then why bring guns? The klan came to terrorize the Lumbee , but Lumbee terrorized the klan instead. It's called reaping what u sow.

@Michael Madden You sure about that? With how unwilling the NRA is to defend black people's gun rights, the actual NRA clearly has no interest in POC, certainly not black people.

@@CaeruleanWren NRA was started to protect black firearm rights.Why do you say they don't?

Carl Systematization: it was NRA members who helped organize Black gun owners throughout the Jim Crow South. Many Blacks had NRA clubs. Indeed, the infamous Gun Control Act of 1968 was in many ways a reaction to the increasing numbers of Blacks not only buying, but also carrying, firearms.

@@markfergerson2145 I would like to highlight here that Pelosi's challenger from the left, Shahid Buttar, is a 2nd amendment advocate of sorts, but one very different from conservatives who do not thing beyond the right to own guns, nor similar to liberals who believe no good can be achieved with it. As a constitutional lawyer he takes it as given that American citizens living in the United States and its territories have a right to own firearms and he further affirms that the 2nd amendment is a recognition of a right to resist tyranny by other "arms" as well, which has been eroded by the paramilitarization of police to become enforcers of the state who firearms are simply insufficient to resist when they enforce tyranny. He has further affirmed that gun control without concommittant disarming of police has further eroded that right to resist tyranny. Here's him discussing it: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aqegishpuK7df40.html And here's him outlining his views in writing: truthout.org/articles/ferguson-and-the-second-amendment/ He has been advocating this nuanced view of the 2nd amendment for years and he could use help spreading it further.

@@markfergerson2145 I think the best way would be to get rid of the incredibly unhealthy attitude of many gun owners, of revering guns as a solution to everything, such that mass shootings can wane a bit and people perhaps don't feel so threatened by the people who constantly talk about shooting people they don't agree with. I mean go watch that Three Percenter documentary that Vice did, where they're at the gun range talking about shooting leftists. No wonder lefties don't want easy gun ownership when righties are organizing for the purpose of killing them.

Mark Fergerson I don't think Pelosi has support of "Progressives" or "The Left", the money and influence of a lifetime politicians mean that democrats (and republicans) can brand whatever they like to be "progressive" (or "traditional"). And half of everyone believes that definition.

@Russian Bot #568984 A gathering that is organized for the purpose of inciting violence is not "peaceful", and SCotUS has ruled that it isn't protected by the first amendment either. To gather like that and announce the intention of such so publicly, and not expect community backlash in the defense of the people that were targeted, is naïvety of the highest caliber.

@Russian Bot #568984 Oh, I'm sorry, the Klan must really be the most civil of pacifists to grace the Earth and would have politely asked the Lumbee tribe to vacate the Lumbee nation so that the land could be taken over by Whites. That's _certainly_ what was meant by "drive them out" and mentioning "race mixing" as a problem to be "solved". /s

@@johnnypopulus5521 more firearms just means terrorists get easier access to said firearms. it's not impossible to own them in the UK, but they're very tightly controlled. there's a reason terrorists have to resort to machetes and vehicular methods for their attacks, thus meaning the body count is a lot less than what it could be. not only that, but there's not really a desire for firearms among the population. in fact, it's one of the issues that is pretty much agreed with between the vast majority, irregardless of politics.

@@blitoris We do, like the whole Epstein thing but they're run by the elite for the elite & they suicide the procurors before they can say anything.

Way way more than that indeed, it's just not for the civilians to use.

@@vanboy5697 The origin of the quote is from a movie character that becomes an arms dealer and circumvents international arms trade regulations. It doesn't matter what the government or UN think about what civilians can or can't use.

@@vanboy5697 What country?

I shared this with them.

And in the hands of the "right" people. Pointing out that Hitler made it hard or impossible for Jews and other undesirables to own guns is correct, but he also made it easier for "true Aryans" to get guns. A dictator can't win just by taking guns away, he needs armed people on his side (who then take the guns from the undesirables).

@@Spetulhu Hitler got in to power and started rounding up Jews before any gun laws were in place. In fact Nazi gun laws weren't strict at all, quite the opposite. Firearms as a self-defense against criminal is quite valid but is wholly out-dated when it comes to tyrannical governments. We aren't living in a time where the army is using similar weapon as civilian firearms. And modern military weapon is very complex that your average citizen would not know how to use competently if at all. OP is correct. Gun laws, in the past, today and in the future have always been about putting it in the right hands and keeping it away from the wrong hands. Laws have to strike a balance, where that balance lies is a point of contention. Whenever a gun law proposal is made, pro-gun people think it's complete removal of guns when that is not the case if you look at the finer details. The opposite is true, when gun laws are relaxed, the anti-gun people think it is supporting anarchy. The reality is that laws are changed to match the times we live in to strike that balance. We can strike that perfect balance but people will never be satisfied because everyone's opinion is different, even among the same camps.
