NRA Drops Full Interview with Killer Mike

Killer Mike found himself in hot water last week when the NRA posted a clip of an interview he did with them online. In a smart, yet somewhat tacky marketing ploy, the NRA released a clip where Mike talks about his beliefs on parenting in connection with the gun conversation. They dropped the snippet on the same day the March For Our Lives rally took place. “I told my kids on the school walkout: ‘I love you-if you walk out that school, walk out my house,’” stated Mike in the snippet. Watch above.

I don’t see why people are up in arms over the interview

[@frozenwalkway]

Donell Earlycutt they hate the fact that the interview became a tool for the NRA. Even tho he supports the NRA.

[@2cent826]

Donell Earlycutt it’s the platform he choose to use. The NRA is a right wing organization the profits from pumping guns into American society. Killer Mike should be ashamed he went on NRAtv....then he acted like he was surprised when they exploited is interview. He got played!

[@kingtreal1314]

Donell Earlycutt Lol. Nice pun

[@awarriorslifereal374]

2 Cent I disagree. The NRA doesn’t pump guns anywhere. They support the second amendment and fight to insure that second amendment isn’t trampled on. Gun companies distribute guns throughout the country to sale and no I’m not an NRA member

[@2cent826]

Donell Earlycutt I know the NRA wants you to believe they are protecting the 2nd amendment but they are a sponsor organization for profit. The gun industry which is a multi BILLION dollar industry donates roughly 52.6 million dollars per year to the NRA. The NRA funnels a portion of that money into republican politicians in order to influence gun laws that favor gun companies in America. I respect your opinion but your opinion might change if you read about the NRA instead of just believing what they tell you!

[@youtubegoogleb]

Killer mike is a REAL ONE!!!! This video was amazing

[@mack007]

I mean honestly does the platform really matter if the message is just as powerful or more??? much respect to Killer Mike

[@WestsidePatriot]

henry4625 The platform does matter because he didn't speak from a politically objective point of view. He sounded like right-wing gun nut speaking down on black people. The other token was stringing along the conversation strategically by mentioning our pitfalls and made it seem like we're standing for dumb shit and not putting our money in the right places. It goes with the old adage, "Praise in public, correct in private." He should have been correcting US on OUR platforms, not on a for- profit right-wing affiliated platform that hasn't been exactly associated with the betterment of black people. Rewatch the interview and you can see this nigga got turned out like trick for the moment.

[@almawhitley3388]

[@davidl.7027]

Geechi Gray did none of you guys read his apology? 😂I don't see why you all are so confused if you did

[@lrfisher2002]

Talking gun control in the cities is only half of it. You must also discuss the war on drugs. Most of the gun violence we see in the inner city is because of the war on drugs. Look at your local news. Most times you see someone killed is over drugs. Mass incarceration and community instability can also be traced back to how the drug war is waged. Gun control is a non issue and it really makes things worse. I think decriminalization of drugs needs to be discussed first and foremost.

[@EarleWilsonEarle_Street]

lrfisher2002 majority of urban gun violence is committed with illegal guns. With that said gun control debates are pointless in regards to urban centers.

[@gregoryldismukes]

[@ricallen621]

Those who were upset by this interview must have not listened to it in its entirety. On the radio I just heard bits and pieces. Like the piece where Mike says if you go on that walkout you can walk out my house. That was taken out context.

[@dtz1586]

[@Renegade-jk4ux]

Killer Mike is a smart, well spoken individual. I’ve listened to him in interviews before , but not on some of the issues he spoke on in this particular interview. He makes a lot of damn good points , but late in the interview when he speaks on the assault rifles...he says more people are shot by hand guns. He’s right...there are more people shot by hand guns overall, but when a few psychopaths decide to shoot up several people at one time in an enclosed environment...the chances of them succeeding goes way up! Why does a civilian need a gun that shoots fifty and one hundred round drums? It’s insane. I’m for Americans owning guns, but there should be common sense laws for them.

[@LoganHankins]

Magazine capacity has been shown over and over through demonstrations to be negligible in the ability to cause damage. And a handgun is far more easier to manage in close quarters.

[@symbiote]

I like how he put it about the guns near his wife’s bed. “You’re gonna get one of those.” -“Bird shot, Buck shot” -Dave Chappelle-

[@swift7163]

Killer Mike is really one of our close to last prolific figures we have rn. Love this man's interviews. It sparks up thoughts more than impressions. You have to respect that. Check my channel Mike lol I dnt got that much but I'll put whatever I can to have you on a track.. #RTJ#

[@pokemorgasm7157]

Luesean Brown he’s a well spoken man but he never brings up the social economic crisis that’s hindering Black people to succeed. Racism now a days is just plain ignorance about one’s culture or race. We Americans have pretty decent internet speed and have the power to kill ignorance by educating our selves using the internet but most Americans are too busy watching porn instead of educating themselves better to avoid saying or acting in a way that can be considered to be ignorant or racist towards one person.

[@Bigg_C-Nile1]

Pokemo Rgasm quick suggestion to you would be ONLY SPEAK FOR YOURSELF. You REALLY don't KNOW what MOST Americans are too busy doing. & THIS same govt just passed a bill to tamper with the internet starting in April 2018. RACISM is & has far more to do than just skin color & culture. While we're@ it, the socio-economic issue popped up a brief sec in this interview, but WHY complain that they Didn't speak to that issue & comment about it on KZbin when you can do your OWN vids on here about it to pass around? It's not hard for info to go viral then we can see just how much YOU been researching/educating yourself on the matter on the internet instead of watching porn etc.

[@Bigg_C-Nile1]

Pokemo Rgasm llamf posing as a so called black person is unacceptable behavior too. NOW for a real question. Violent disruptive behavior groups period takes place but you're attempting to play crazy like it's just a "black" thing foh! Commenting like an unaware of TRUE HISTORY researching person is an issue. You Don't KNOW & most certainly Haven't spoken to MOST so called black or so called African American people to even make this idiotic statement so hush

[@SoTrue144]

If you mad at this interview. You just hate the truth.

[@SoTrue144]

bgt125 First, can you actually learn to type in complete sentences. Second, don't bring your sensitive opinions & feelings to my comments. If you disagree present your evidence to dispute the information provided. Forget your feelings.

[@kingofmfinghearts8625]

bgt125 But what are you so angry at though? Seriously?

[@kingofmfinghearts8625]

bgt125 Well because you are cursing, a lot. 🤣 Yeah i like to as well, but you’re seeming to do it out of anger because: 1) It wasn’t directed to you first. 2) It’s a lot. Almost every sentence. 3) You’re not really making any “arguments”, just a lot of insults like you’re lashing out at someone. If you’re really trying to prove a point I’ll talk to you with an opened mind. I know I don’t know everything, and I am willing to listen to people who think differently than me. But if you’re just going to throw insults at people then you’re not going to get very far with people.

[@kingofmfinghearts8625]

bgt125 You clearly don’t want to talk. You just want to be “right”. I’ll let you talk to yourself then. Next time, try not to be so condescending.

[@kingofmfinghearts8625]

bgt125 So did you completely miss the part where I said I don’t know everything?

Killer Mike needs to take Bernie to some black barbershops to discuss various issues, including guns.

[@JHansome]

Good intuitive conversation!!

[@melo15813]

I don't think he cares they are racist. I think he wants black people to support the NRA more for strategic reasons. Even if they only care about white peoples gun rights by default that means black people get to keep theirs too. If the NRA is fighting to keep a certain weapon from getting banned and your black and you also don't want that weapon banned then the NRA JUST HELPED YOU weather they're racist or not doesn't matter what they really feel about you. Which seems like sound logic to me if in fact all you care about is keeping certain gun rights, I don't think anything else matters to him.

[@rzrselliott]

"Even if they only care about white people's gun rights" Is this a fact or are you simply projecting your own prejudice onto people that may not actually be prejudice?

[@PrincipalSkinner3190]

rzrselliott Its a fact, NRA didn't even say a word about Philandro Castille who was killed for being a licensed gun owner.

[@dragonsofthunder]

Amen

[@bluespartaninc]

rzrselliott what he means is the NRA isn't literally trying to pass a law where only white people can own guns. What he means is NRA is racist and only cares about their white supremacist buddies being able to keep their guns. Which means every other race gets to keep theirs too even if they don't like them they just care about keeping the guns which by default means EVERYONE keeps their guns

Papoose told y'all to get a conceal and carry license. Killer Mike is explaining how the govt protects that right. Then he told u how he respectfully approaches situations where a power dynamic, even when your legally within your rights, can go brutally wrong. Unfortunately none of his will stop u from getting jacked if u slippin or shot by the police if u have the correct paperwork. Besafetho...oops another reference where a firearm made it's way into a complicated situation. In any case a rapper from the streets and a rapper with a street perspective who is very socially and politically self aware has told us that is better to be with it than without it.

I don't ever let a cop know I have a gun in the car unless they ask. They don't need to know and all telling them does is put them on edge.

Typical spiel, cause something then condemn the effect of it. Good racist white folk are doing most of the extremist killings in America, and that has nothing to do with black folks being “triggered”, as you put it. Good demon seed, as well as lack of integrity and courage to face responsibility on the part of white people is what keeps racism going.

Dred Scott case, back in 1857 which was Dred Scott v. Sandford a landmark case by the United States Supreme Court on US labor law and constitutional law. It held that "a negro, whose ancestors were imported into the America and were sold as slaves" whether enslaved or free, could not be an American citizen and therefore had no standing to sue in federal court and that the federal government had no power to regulate slavery in the federal territories acquired after the creation of the United States. Meaning that Dred Scott could not own a firearm under the Second Amendment signed December 15, 1791...
