John Crawford was shot dead by thugs in a Walmart while [ holding a BB gun he wanted to buy ]( http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/sep/07/ohio-black-man-killed-by-police-walmart-doubts-cast-witnesss-account ) . It appears this was based on an exaggerated and false accusation from someone who was in the store. The article shows why "open carry" laws effectively apply only to whites. It's [ too dangerous if you're black ]( https://stallman.org/archives/2014-may-aug.html#18_August_2014_(Michael_Browns_autopsy_report) ) . Lawfully carrying a concealed gun can cause you trouble if you're a black; thugs frequently search you, and even though the gun is not a crime, the thugs will look for an excuse to charge you with something. As a result, [ "stand your ground" laws ]( https://stallman.org/archives/2014-may-aug.html#15_August_2014_(Stand_your_ground_laws) ) are also whites-only.
