Cornel West on Gun Control

 

 


Good to discuss gun control, but why only with white victims

[On Black Lives Matter]: "But it's a good thing that we now have a discussion on gun control. We need one on drone control," he continued, "not a peep, not a mumbling word when black folk get shot. But now, Newtown, Connecticut, vanilla side--low and behold we got a major conversation. That's wonderful. Each life is precious but it just upsets me when we're so deferential."
