2 terms I don't like to hear are:
1 Assault weapon /rifle/ gun
2 African-American...if they were born here they are Black Americans and they should be proud of that.
As far as the black Americans who still bitch about the slavery that their ancestors had to experience:
Black people who are descendents of black slaves who were captured by probably Muslim slave traders… then sold to black slave traders… and then sold to white European slave traders to be brought here aboard a terrible ship where a high percentage of them died on the way and finally sold again as slaves in the New World would not be in the United States had their ancestors not been captured slaves.
Instead of being in the United States they probably would be “if alive” , living in a poverty ridden village in Africa with no electricity, no internet, no Food Stamps, no subsidy of any kind to make their life easier. Members of “Black Lives Matter” have a choice to either stay here or move to Africa.
Those who want to move to Africa and give up their United States Citizenship can probably start a “Go Fund Me” page and get help to move. It is their choice. “Black descendants of slaves currently born in and living in the United States should thank their Lucky Stars for their ancestors who endured the terrible hardships and in-justice of slavery.”
Otherwise they would probably be living in a village in Africa enduring the hardships that those people currently living in Africa have to put up with today…..and in North Africa and the Sub Sahara now days…. they STILL have to worry about becoming a slave and being sold to someone ... especially if they are female..

Very perspicacious !! Actually the descendants of slaves would never have been born if their ancestors weren't brought here because their ancestors would have never met.
