Joshua Fontanez basically means Puerto Rico is a shithole. Mr trump needs to add Puerto Rico to the shithole countries list. USA needs to leave these low fuckers on their own and not part of the U.S.
It's true I live here and I fucking hate the gun laws we have, it's way more expensive than in the states one license is 1,200 that's just the permit to buy a firearm then become a club member that price can go from 600 to 1,100 depending on the gun club a lawyer to get statements from neighbors 3 in total that's a additional 1000 or more and then if you want a cocealed carry license it's an additional 1,600 plus if you don't have you're concealed carry ID with you while defending you're self you get arrested which is more money to need there you have it.

I was there around 2004 when Gilberto El Pollo (one of the drug lords in metro area of San Juan) was killed. It was chaotic and the range of high caliber weapons I saw in Cataño was insane. It was rumored that most of them were bought from the marine base in Vieques. That year, there were more people killed in PR than in Iraq. Remember this was the height of Iraq war too. Insane!
*The annoying thing with male journalists is that when it comes to guns, they feel like they have to pretend like they even have a clue what they're holding.* 3:07 That's not an UZI, that's a MAC-10. And the Israeli special forces have dumped the UZI like 15 years ago. 3:42 There has never been an internal hammer in a glock, glocks are striker fired. And its not a hack, its a full auto backplate. 8:03 An AK frame that fires shotgun shells ? Its called a saiga 12. Journalists and guns = worst love story than twilight. This documentary = proof that tight gun control is as much of a failed experiment leading to the birth of a malformed kid with 20 anuses as twilight.
***** A navy seal secretary ? I mean seriously a proper navy seal wouldn't mistake an UZI for a MAC-10, its not even the same caliber. Same thing with the glock backplate and the saiga 12.
***** Vice is quite a strange "media outlet". They have a few awesome journalists like the guy who made "This is what winning looks like", and at the same time they also have the crappiest hipster journalists you could think of, like the guy who swimmed on camera with pink panties, who looks like hamilton. Hamilton by the way....
Why? At least half of those guns get destroyed, And the other half of those guns corrupt police sell back to highest paying gang members or individuals. It’s not a secret on the island everyone knows it. As a Puerto Rican from Puerto Rico I know what I’m talking about

With the new gun law it's easier but you'll have to get the license first and right now the waiting list with the police is up to August or so of next year.
"The worst place in the world to live"? I live in Puerto Rico for 41 years and this coment is totally false. Video es totally exagerating. Making PR seem like a war zone. Im sure theres worst place to live.

AND GET INVOLVED IN POSITIVE PROGRAMS IN SCHOOLS AND UNIVERSITIES !!!. AND DEMAND CHANGE !!.😎🇺🇸😎💔💖🙊🙈🙉😱!!!!. AND VOTE STATE HOOD..!!!!!. NOW !!!.TO ELIMINATE THERE CURRUPT GOVERNMENT !!!!. THAT HAS DONE NOTHING TO INPROVE P.R. !!!!. SAME SYSTEM FOR 60- YEARS !!.
AGENT X SECURITY maybe the ones you know are watching TV but not the ones I know sorry, they take life as serious as cancer, and it's hard to fight the United States of America as a colony if you don't know.
+AGENT X SECURITY I agree with you about State hood and I am Puertorican.Only thing is that Puerto Rico is Puerto Pobre meaning Puerto Rico which means Rich Port is Broke af now very broke they owe millions that we will have to carry that burden if they became state hood.
+Joel Schembri Not always. Sometimes they can be of equal importance. If you don't know shit about the firearm model (you are handling) chances are you're going to be a danger to yourself and others around you.
The "gun debate," boils down to this for me.. There is none. You can't un invent something, it will always be there no matter what you do. Where ever there is a demand there will be someone to fulfill it. Just like drugs, It's human nature, so be realistic. Gun control doesn't work, in the end it just becomes, "lets ban this gun because it is more dangerous than this gun or this magazine because it holds more than what is safe for it to hold!" Any yes any firearm is dangerous in the hands of someone willing to use it for bad intentions. It always comes down to people, you can't change people. So don't tell me making firearms illegal will solve the problem. And Vice, you can have whatever view you like, just don't push it on to me or worst on people who are uneducated on the subject such as yourself. It is unethical, just report the news without a bias. Is that really so much to ask for these days?
Drew Gaughan "At 91 per cent, Puerto Rico has the world’s highest overall percentage of homicides by firearms. But this statistic hasn’t stopped the NRA from setting up shop, establishing their 51st chapter in Puerto Rico."
ScottHigh23 I said this in another comment chain but I'll paste it here because I think it highlights why I could never agree with the NRA's stance: You Americans ignore the fact that gun ownership is huge up here yet we MONITOR those who own guns. You fail to see the benefits of BACKGROUND CHECKS in stemming violent crime. I live right across the river from Detroit, a city that had 333 murders in 2013, we had 4. You're fooling yourself and only making things worse by not petitioning for the moderation of gun owners. This sums up the problem nicely.
I encourage everyone to do their own research. I have invested the last thirteen years of my life to learning about defending my family and myself. There is a lot of misinformation in this video. It feels like, to me, that they had some inexperienced PA or intern google some basic info and spit it back out. You have to chose your source of information very carefully. While it was an interesting video, there were no hard hitting questions to the politician and a lot of the same misinformation we get from other news shows. Bad form. When I was kid, Puerto Rico was a test market for all types of corporate things, like cable TV, fashion, and music, just to name a few. I''m sure politicians didn't have a problem with that. They found countless reasons as to how it could benefit the people, and themselves. The NRA's presence in Puerto Rico is a threat to some politicians. Empowering people is usually not in the best interests of the government. In 13 years, I've learned that criminals don't look for fights, the look for victims. The cowardly criminal who cold-bloodedly shot the lady in the chest was never expecting her to fight back. He was betting, with very good odds, that he had found a victim. Even the odds.
@@dwaynejohnson3656 recheck your information because you're still wrong. If you're saying Per capa it would be Honduras PR doesnt even make top 5 going by per capa
A country overflowing with violence and especially violence committeden with illegal firearms, needs *legal* ways for law abiding citizens to get weapons so they can defend themselves, because as of now criminals are much better armed.
I've visited Puerto Rico and lots of times you'll have a nice, modern city, people driving nice cars, living in nice houses, etc., then you go 15 minutes out of the city and you see houses falling apart and old abandoned buildings everywhere.
Because the only thing you see is SAN JUAN the islands biggest tourist attraction the real island is to the west and it actually gets moved the more rural you get
@@diegodiego4697 The western portion of the island is one of the nicest and has no where near as much crime as the eastern portion of the island. It’s far cleaner and better put together.
I lived there from 93-97, it was deadly back then too, you were told not to stop at red lights after midnight, and the police really had their work cut out for them, this is an ongoing problem, not a recent problem
VICE News You're totally missing the point. Puerto Rico is suffering from wholesale economic collapse. This horrible economy has been met by opportunities within the drug trade. This then leads to violence and gun violence is only one aspect of that. You could get rid of all the guns and there would still be violence.
About time! I think Puerto Ricans should be able to protect themselves. Gun control has proven time and time again, that it does not work! Wanda's story is inspiring. :)
Anthony Hernandez stop with the hate man. We all need each other in this world at a certain point. Chill. Y soy boricua papá..... Don't make us look like savages without proper education either. Love one another. You vape Cannabis? If you don't, you should. blessings to you.
The problem isn’t gun control. The problem is the GOVT making it a point to profit off of it. If it takes several thousands to get licensed, and that’s not including the gun, that’s crazy. Damn right people are going to buy them illegally.
Joyce J / ASouthernWriter actually wrong, in Puerto Rico NOW they are trying to do the process so you can shoot somebody if they break inside your house, just like here in Texas, but if I have my paper work on date In Puerto Rico and I shoot the criminal, huney I’m going to jail and the guy maybe 3 years probation but the one that tried to DEFEND YOUR FAMILY? He gonna be locked up, The Rivera Schatz now is trying to change that law
+Bananadog5 That's a blatant lie mate. Intentional homicide rates by firearms are at least 5 times higher in the United States than in the Netherlands, Sweden, Germany, Luxembourg etc
+Monte Town are those actual facts or fictional 'facts'? Because I find that really hard to believe. I'd like to see a source from that please. And even if it were true, what about now? how are the statistics 20 years after the gun law?
@@savdielducret9374 it's fucking horrible and definitely not the island of paradise. I've been living here for 3 years now. Nothing to be glamorizing about. Be careful out here ✌️
This year (2020), they have loosened up the gun laws and have made it waaayy easier for civilians to get armed. Now this documentary needs a bit of an update in that particular topic.
Very interesting to see my hometown portrayed in your show. I was asked in Albany, NY what kind of game I was going to use the Remington 11-87 I had just bought, what kind of animals, and my answer was "the two legged kind" which brought a roar of laughs at the gun shop. Buying a long gun in NY is so easy, yet the crime rate in Albany is much much lower than in Puerto Rico. This is why you saw the kind of weapons you saw at the Police Dept. Deposit, cops don't want us to be armed, and they don't protect us, and it is easier to confiscate guns from a law abiding citizen. Many times the police knows where the "sicarios" are but will not confront them, some are a bunch of chickens. There is one truth the thug said, police in Puerto Rico is corrupt, very corrupt. And there are many points that aggravate the problem of illegal guns, which maybe my good old friend Luis Tuto Bermudez didn't tell you because maybe you didn't ask. To wrap it up, it was a good show, a bit short in some areas.
When the police say 'you don't need guns we'll keep you safe', then you see huge murder rates and their massive failures at general safety. A reasonable person will still want to defend himself and own a gun to protect his family. If you have the choice between safe and legal you will logically chose safe. This causes as a side effect a huge market for reasonable citizens who want guns, making to easy for criminals to get them too.
Uzi (by the way that's a Mac 10), perfered weapon of the Israel Special Forces! Lol you better go do some more research before you make a statement like that, I laughed so hard I damn near pissed myself! 😂😂
I’m Puerto Rican, and I can say this everything in this video it’s true, you literally cannot go outside at night. Every government official in the island may have ties to the local mafia or cartel Also were part of the United States, were not a nation were a territory, we don’t have a president we have a governor
PR has a National Guard and also US Reserve solders. They have fought and died in war like any other solders from other states. They aren't "protected by the armed forces of the US", they are part of the US Armed Forces. Additionally, they do not pay federal income taxes (unless you work for the federal goverment) for the reason you stated but they do pay medicare/medicaid taxes. And they pay millions of dollars to the federal government in import taxes.
@C0UNTM30UT The federal government/agencies like ATF or FBI have full jurisdiction of the island. That means if you commit federal felony like having a full auto gun You are going to federal prison! Without of doubt. Puerto Rico is a US territory but there root structure is a state with limitations…
But you want to be an independent country so bad & if you vote to become one then it's going to get worse you'll never get help from The U.S. sorry but that's what happens when you want to be an independent country.
I'm puerto rican and the guns thing is mad true, I heard gunshots at 8:00 and it gave me chills but I got used to it, I now live in new york living a peaceful life but if you wanna live there, good luck you'll need it
***** The Puerto Rican gun laws are certainly not as strict as Canadian gun laws… So I don't think it's accurate to call it "strict". First, the level of criminality isn't really affected by the gun availability… This is determined by the economic and cultural situation. Second, what guns does is simply to aggravate the crimes by making them more lethal…
Everfrost1000 There is obviously a problem there, but the solution is not to exacerbate the situation by adding more guns. The solution is to remove what drives the crimes… If it's drugs, then offer a legal alternative. (Such as legalizing marijuana!) If it's the poverty, then create jobs… But adding more guns to a clearly uncontrolled nation?
Let the citizenry exercise their right to bare arms...the delinquents would think before committing crimes...gun laws make law abiding citizens prey to criminals!
The highest murder by firearm percentages are in the same areas where strict gun control measures are in place: Chicago, Washington D.C., Los Angeles and here. It's not complicated; criminals don't follow laws and only the good guys are disarmed.
Right! Sounds like a nightmare to even posses a legal firearm which completely opens up the market and interest in the illegal market. Those restrictions and BS laws are self defeating.
Would love to see a post Hurricane Maria update to this story. How did gun ownership (legal or not) affect the people when the infrastructure was decimated.
Well, during the month of January of last year (just 4 months after hurricane María) there were 46 murders, 6 rapes, 195 robberies, 272 aggravated assaults, 457 trespassings, 1,244 thefts, and 279 stolen vehicles. That all happened in 1 month.

Dwayne Mattson we have our own government, our own legal system, our own economy, and our own identity which all falls in characteristics of our own nation. We are even classified as our own nation in an international level and every couple of years we vote for usa affiliation, statehood, or independence. Every 8 years, I think. (Affiliation and statehood always win usually ) Many united states government and legal branches don't affect Puerto Rico, but the federal government does. For example: Puerto Rico already had legal gay marriage and legal gay adoption before congress made it official through all the states. Essentially we can do whatever we want (and the constitution technically doesn't fall on the island because it has it's own constitution with its own set of laws) but we can't go over a federal law like all the other 50 states We also have a form or Obama care before Obama care was a thing. Like I said, weird.
It wasn't Congress, it was the Supreme Court that made same sex marriage legal in all 50 states. Some states had already made it legal, Hawaii being the first. State laws don't usually affect other states either, but like with PR the Federal government does.
Technically you are right, we are the colony, the only and oldest in the world the US has. We were a nation for a while, right before the Maine explosion in Cuba. But in many ways a nation. Colonized? Yes, but not all are colonized. And for the guy that says Puerto Rican women are ugly... How many Miss Universe have we had? Do you have anything as sexy and rich as JLo? And many of the Air Force pilots, spies, specialists of all kinds in the Armed Forces of US are from where? Nah, you wouldn't guess. Oh, by the way, how do you like my English? It is one advantage of being colonized, we speak both, Spanish AND English. Duh!

The "gun debate," boils down to this for me.. There is none. You can't un invent something, it will always be there no matter what you do. Where ever there is a demand there will be someone to fulfill it. Just like drugs, It's human nature, so be realistic. Gun control doesn't work, in the end it just becomes, "lets ban this gun because it is more dangerous than this gun or this magazine because it holds more than what is safe for it to hold!" Any yes any firearm is dangerous in the hands of someone willing to use it for bad intentions. It always comes down to people, you can't change people. So don't tell me making firearms illegal will solve the problem. And Vice, you can have whatever view you like, just don't push it on to me or worst on people who are uneducated on the subject such as yourself. It is unethical, just report the news without a bias. Is that really so much to ask for these days?
This was hardly biased. He listened to the NRA and the Democrat politician with equal respect.
Drew Gaughan "At 91 per cent, Puerto Rico has the world’s highest overall percentage of homicides by firearms. But this statistic hasn’t stopped the NRA from setting up shop, establishing their 51st chapter in Puerto Rico."
ScottHigh23 Yes, and...?
It IS a bad political move for the NRA to associate itself with high murder rates...
Drew Gaughan Also this statement about them having a bias is based on all their videos I have watched, not just this one.
ScottHigh23 I said this in another comment chain but I'll paste it here because I think it highlights why I could never agree with the NRA's stance:
You Americans ignore the fact that gun ownership is huge up here yet we MONITOR those who own guns. You fail to see the benefits of BACKGROUND CHECKS in stemming violent crime. I live right across the river from Detroit, a city that had 333 murders in 2013, we had 4. You're fooling yourself and only making things worse by not petitioning for the moderation of gun owners.
This sums up the problem nicely.

You have to chose your source of information very carefully.
While it was an interesting video, there were no hard hitting questions to the politician and a lot of the same misinformation we get from other news shows.
Bad form.
When I was kid, Puerto Rico was a test market for all types of corporate things, like cable TV, fashion, and music, just to name a few. I''m sure politicians didn't have a problem with that. They found countless reasons as to how it could benefit the people, and themselves.
The NRA's presence in Puerto Rico is a threat to some politicians. Empowering people is usually not in the best interests of the government.
In 13 years, I've learned that criminals don't look for fights, the look for victims.
The cowardly criminal who cold-bloodedly shot the lady in the chest was never expecting her to fight back. He was betting, with very good odds, that he had found a victim.

This then leads to violence and gun violence is only one aspect of that. You could get rid of all the guns and there would still be violence.

This year (2020), they have loosened up the gun laws and have made it waaayy easier for civilians to get armed. Now this documentary needs a bit of an update in that particular topic.
Very interesting to see my hometown portrayed in your show. I was asked in Albany, NY what kind of game I was going to use the Remington 11-87 I had just bought, what kind of animals, and my answer was "the two legged kind" which brought a roar of laughs at the gun shop. Buying a long gun in NY is so easy, yet the crime rate in Albany is much much lower than in Puerto Rico. This is why you saw the kind of weapons you saw at the Police Dept. Deposit, cops don't want us to be armed, and they don't protect us, and it is easier to confiscate guns from a law abiding citizen. Many times the police knows where the "sicarios" are but will not confront them, some are a bunch of chickens. There is one truth the thug said, police in Puerto Rico is corrupt, very corrupt. And there are many points that aggravate the problem of illegal guns, which maybe my good old friend Luis Tuto Bermudez didn't tell you because maybe you didn't ask. To wrap it up, it was a good show, a bit short in some areas.
When the police say 'you don't need guns we'll keep you safe', then you see huge murder rates and their massive failures at general safety. A reasonable person will still want to defend himself and own a gun to protect his family. If you have the choice between safe and legal you will logically chose safe.
This causes as a side effect a huge market for reasonable citizens who want guns, making to easy for criminals to get them too.

PR has a National Guard and also US Reserve solders. They have fought and died in war like any other solders from other states. They aren't "protected by the armed forces of the US", they are part of the US Armed Forces. Additionally, they do not pay federal income taxes (unless you work for the federal goverment) for the reason you stated but they do pay medicare/medicaid taxes. And they pay millions of dollars to the federal government in import taxes.
@C0UNTM30UT
The federal government/agencies like ATF or FBI have full jurisdiction of the island.
That means if you commit federal felony like having a full auto gun
You are going to federal prison!

American's mentality: Too much guns? Add more guns!
Isn't it obvious that the solution to too much of anything isn't to add more of it?
collin ohlinger I don't see the control in "strict gun control"… Do you?
SymbolX Criminals not obeying the law and importing thousands of illegal guns, who would have thought?
***** The Puerto Rican gun laws are certainly not as strict as Canadian gun laws… So I don't think it's accurate to call it "strict".
First, the level of criminality isn't really affected by the gun availability… This is determined by the economic and cultural situation.
Second, what guns does is simply to aggravate the crimes by making them more lethal…
Everfrost1000 There is obviously a problem there, but the solution is not to exacerbate the situation by adding more guns. The solution is to remove what drives the crimes… If it's drugs, then offer a legal alternative. (Such as legalizing marijuana!) If it's the poverty, then create jobs… But adding more guns to a clearly uncontrolled nation?
***** I still don't see how letting people access guns more easily would help anything but increase the fatality of criminal acts…

TeCh ExPlOiTs bro I am in the exact position except I was born and raised here when I finish my studies im getting the hell outta here. I love puerto rico, I don’t love it’s bad politicians, crime and lack of opportunities.
Whoa I’ve never seen the special edition uzi that looks like a Mac 10 lol
"We have the right to live." Best 2A slogan ever.
Puerto Rico is a US territory, not an Island Nation.
Is is an island nation and a US territory. it's complicated....
Explain it to me then.
Dwayne Mattson we have our own government, our own legal system, our own economy, and our own identity which all falls in characteristics of our own nation. We are even classified as our own nation in an international level and every couple of years we vote for usa affiliation, statehood, or independence. Every 8 years, I think. (Affiliation and statehood always win usually )
Many united states government and legal branches don't affect Puerto Rico, but the federal government does.
For example: Puerto Rico already had legal gay marriage and legal gay adoption before congress made it official through all the states.
Essentially we can do whatever we want (and the constitution technically doesn't fall on the island because it has it's own constitution with its own set of laws) but we can't go over a federal law like all the other 50 states
We also have a form or Obama care before Obama care was a thing.
Like I said, weird.
It wasn't Congress, it was the Supreme Court that made same sex marriage legal in all 50 states. Some states had already made it legal, Hawaii being the first. State laws don't usually affect other states either, but like with PR the Federal government does.
Technically you are right, we are the colony, the only and oldest in the world the US has. We were a nation for a while, right before the Maine explosion in Cuba. But in many ways a nation. Colonized? Yes, but not all are colonized. And for the guy that says Puerto Rican women are ugly... How many Miss Universe have we had? Do you have anything as sexy and rich as JLo? And many of the Air Force pilots, spies, specialists of all kinds in the Armed Forces of US are from where? Nah, you wouldn't guess. Oh, by the way, how do you like my English? It is one advantage of being colonized, we speak both, Spanish AND English. Duh!
I know it's an old video but I can't help commenting. The part where he goes with the outlaw guys into the woods. The guy handles all the guns with gloves on while the reporter left his finger prints all over the guns which are probably going to be used later to commit crimes. He just did the outlaws a favor.
I go shooting to that range with my dad!!!! The Fajardo one I mean.
