Are the parenthetical statements Lenin's? The working class of the United States is about 70% of the population. The bourgeois is about 2%. I think one could easily surmise from reading Lenin that he would be pro-2nd Amendment and against gun control laws, since he wants the majority to be armed as a condition of revolution and democracy. It's the conservative police who ride around disarming black people, and the Marxist BPP that wanted people to arm themselves. Get it right people!
