At a recent event promoting non-violence in Greensboro North Carolina residents were encouraged to turn in their guns and sign a pledge stating that they will abide by the principles of non-violence.
The Greensboro Police Department was working overtime during the event as they collected guns from resident’s age 18 years and older who freely turned their unloaded and cleaned firearms which included many shotguns, handguns, rifles and ammunition.
Many residents visited Destiny Christian Center for the non-violence event and the Police reported that well over 1,000 residents turned in their guns plus signed the non-violence pledge in exchange for a small gift.
Greensboro North Carolina has seen its share of gun violence in recent years but will non-violence actually solve the problem of gun violence and aggravated assaults since the average criminal won’t turn in their guns?

I have never truly feared for the well-being of my family or friends because of the words uttered by an American politician. But that has changed after Donald Trump’s comments over the past few days about Muslims.
When I tell you that Trump’s remarks about what he has planned for Muslims in America if elected president are bone chilling, I’m not exaggerating. But to me the most frightening—and yes, I mean frightening—incident in all of this is what happened Saturday at Trump’s rally in Birmingham, Alabama. It was not just his words, but the way Trump conveyed them and the setting that conjured up a truly dark time in human history.
During his rally Saturday deep in the heart of Dixie, Trump told the crowd of thousands in no uncertain terms what Muslims could expect if he leads our nation. “Just to set it clear,” Trump stated, pausing slightly for dramatic effect. A sternness then came over his face as he declared emphatically: “I want surveillance of these people.”
You see to Trump, we are not your fellow Americans who are teachers, doctors, taxi drivers, member of Congress, etc. No, he has dehumanized us into a faceless group he calls “these people.” And Trump has unilaterally determined that “these people,” Muslim Americans, are not worthy of the same rights as other Americans. That we, Muslims, are less than fully American simply because of our faith.
Trump then implored the crowd to cheer for his plan that would strip the constitutional rights of a minority group in America with the call, “Are you ready for this? Are you ready?” And on cue, thousands in the crowd cheered as their leader beckoned.
Then something else happened at the event that should give all Americans pause. In this sea of adoring Trump fans stood a black man by the name of Mercutio Southall Jr., a well known local activist. Southall had been shouting “Black Lives Matters,” which had so upset Trump supporters that some began to assault him.
Trump, who later admitted that he had been annoyed with the interruptions by this black activist, can be heard bellowing out to his followers as they are assaulting Southall: “Get him the hell out of here, will you, please?” Adding, “Get him out of here. Throw him out!”
And shockingly on Sunday morning when Trump was asked on Fox News about the assault of Southall, he defended it: “Maybe he should have been roughed up, because it was absolutely disgusting what he was doing.”
The GOP is at a crossroads that will define its party for years.
Funny when this came out in the Winston salem news paper there was a armed robbery article in same paper. Lol winston salem is right next to Greensboro. Winston Salem did a buy back last year.
