Asserts the younger brother of the late jazz great Miles Davis and an attorney in Florida who did legal work on both of U.S. President Barack Obama's campaigns: "Because of its historically racist basis, the right to bear arms has
been either historically usurped by bigoted state-sanctioned controls or
has been intellectually, morally and emotionally usurped by the
so-called teachings and suspect leadership of purported self-appointed

Americans have died for access to or have been lynched as a result of
the inability to embrace and effectuate that right?"
