I live in Ohio. The best part about that stat is that the study never would have happened if the largest cities hadn't complained about the open carry law. A couple of cities said that crime was up 5% since the law was passed, so the government ran the numbers across a bunch of big cities. Crime was indeed up in two of the cities by 5% or less, but it was down in all other large cities in the study by 5-18%. Oops! Probably shouldn't have brought it up, city folk. You might have been able to quietly pass local ordinances to make life difficult for us hay seeds.. Now, us country bumpkins keep guns in our turnip trucks regardless, but it's nice to know we aren't legally required to unload them when we go into town for fresh spitoons and overalls : )
"Lying is the preferred tactic provided that the lie is told first and repeated over and over again. People tend to believe what they hear first and develop a deep seated prejudice against anything that refutes the lie. This is especially true when emotion is used to fortify the lie. Tie the lie with a deeply emotional story that vilifies the opposition." -Saul Alinsky

Recently there was a bit of outcry local to me. A guy self terminated in his home in the middle of the night. He lived across the street from a school. The uproar was that it was counted as a school shooting. Naturally, the town is pissed because it looks like the school is unsafe from the outside when it had literally nothing to do with the school and wasnt even on school property. It was in a private home and it was a suicide.
Yep. There's a lot of scummy corrupt politicians, but my dislike for them pales in comparison to the dislike I have for the media. The media is the biggest reason this country is so divided and so many people are so utterly clueless about politics and what's going on.
* A 1982 survey of 1,800 male felons in 11 state prisons across the U.S. found: 34% had been “scared off, shot at, wounded, or captured by an armed victim.” 40% had decided not to commit a crime because they “knew or believed that the victim was carrying a gun.” 56% of those interviewed agreed that criminals intentionally avoid armed victims. If criminals know the individual has a weapon, they chose to target another victim. 69% personally knew other criminals who had been “scared off, shot at, wounded, or captured by an armed victim."[228] Edit at 370 likes In the US, 12.5% of home invasions happen when someone is home. Of those, the victim is injured 26% of the time. In the UK, over 50% of home invasions happen when someone is home. Find out how many home invasions there are in the US each year and you do the math how much guns are used in defence MINIMUM.

@@Pandaman94 Politics, technology & the rest of the world may change around the criminal element, but the core philosophy of criminality is largely consistent. Criminals are looking for a score, not a fight- unless it happens to be another criminal individual or enterprise that is seen as competition. It's always been that way. We all know what 'the oldest profession in the world' is, but I'm willing to bet that criminality is the second oldest.😏

Its hard to hire good police now since they dont see the benefit of doing their jobs then ending up charged by liberal DAs fo excessive force for shooting armed criminals. Soon cities like LA and NY will hire illegal immigrants that they are now arming and create a police department that has NO connection to the citizens and owes everything to the democratic party. Thats the thugs I was talking about.
What was it like to destroy peoples lives policing for profit? Did you save enough lives to offset the fact you’d send people to jail for victimless “crimes”, or for things like serving a 15 year old warrant to an otherwise law abiding citizen who had no clue about the warrant, who even went so far as to try and turn themselves in fifteen years prior only to have a clerk tell them they had no warrant?

LBJ passed laws stating that if the father is under the same roof with the mother then she can't get assistance from the government. Hence as soon as the child is born the father has to be out so the mind set becomes for the mother if I want more money I have more children for the father I can't be there for my children or the mother will lose assistance.

@@SPARTANSIX-1 correct, they create problems then We the People have to suffer the results and then come up with solutions because our government thinks we work for them.
This is what is baffling. It is perplexing to me that people don't understand why this was done. Anybody who knows anything about the American electorate is aware that if Democrats drop to below 84% of the black vote then things become very difficult for them when it comes to national elections. Once they've drop to around 81 to 80% of the black vote then winning a national election is highly and I mean highly unlikely. Once they drop below to around 78% then they can never win a national election going forward ever again unless the demographics change completely. Kind of like if you imported 8 million new voters out of nowhere once you realize that you were bleeding millions of votes out of every single demographic. This is the reason why the enhanced welfare state was created and why the nuclear black family was destroyed. They must keep them dependent upon the system so they can control their vote. Then they show up every 4 years and start using emotional manipulation in the form of fear regards to racism in order to ensure they do not step out of line. Now everybody wondered Why Donald Trump went from being beloved by Hollywood, beloved by the Democrat Party and the Democrat establishment as a whole and most importantly not only beloved by the black community but idolized by them and then all of a sudden became portrayed as an enemy of them as well as being a white supremacist and a threat. You can get on social media via RUclips and what is now X and previously Twitter and you can go through the media coverage in 2013 and 2014 and very early 2015 in regards to the coverage and treatment of Trump. Donald Trump was often a guest on the view and was absolutely beloved by the women and treated wonderfully. Those women as well as people like Oprah and other prominent celebrities try to push Donald Trump to run for president and told them if he did they would endorse him. This was when they thought he'd run as a Democrat because Donald Trump had primarily been a Democrat not all of his life but much of it. However the divisiveness and radicalization of the left drove him to not only run but run as a Republican. This is the reason why the narrative of Donald Trump was created. The Democrat plantation could not, would not and will not allow their slaves to be taken from them again. Donald Trump was a threat to siphon off a sizable portion of the black vote back over to the Republican Party where it once started but is not owed. This is what all of this comes down to maintaining power for the Democrat Party. However now they have imported a new voting demographic to ensure that they can replace the black vote and create a totalitarian revolution so that their party in one party controls this nation for the foreseeable have century and beyond. Wake up America.

The biggest thing that people need to understand, that they don't already, is that your rights that are outlined on the constitution and bill of rights are NOT rights allowed by the government.

I definitely lean Conservative, but decided to change my affiliation to Independent from Republican because most of the employees that We The People, as their employers, send to the State Capitals and to DC are absolutely Crooked. Most are there looking after themselves instead of the American People . I subscribed in 5 minutes, and will watch him more.

Just like any Employer anywhere else can fire a bad Employee, it may be time to start firing the worst of our employees on both sides, and work our way down the line until we are left with the honest ones.

Just yesterday a woman in Calgary was stabbed to death by her estranged husband in. She had a restraining order against him. He did it in front of their kids school.

She’d still be alive if she had a cop on her hip. That or a gun in her purse.
Many cases like this. Piece of paper does nothing. Especially in the US of A because cops don't have the legal duty to protect you even if you have restraining papers. You have to fall under a special category to be protected by cops.

Between 1968 and 2017, there were 1.5 million firearms deaths in the United States, which is more than the number of soldiers killed in every US combat since the American War for Independence in 1775
@@anonymous.anonymity.how many of those wars lasted 50 years and involved 320 million people? Also consider that best estimates for that same time period would have defensive uses of firearms around 24.5 million (based on the lower range of the annual estimate), literally an order of magnitude greater. I’m in favor of continuing to recognize the rights of those people to protect their lives. Furthermore, it’s irrelevant either way. A safe cage is still a cage, and our rights don’t depend on the safest course.
John Lott Jr and his research is the best way to show the truth about guns. We had him here in Brazil last year. It was a honor. If you want to see what happen when government take the rights from civilians just look to Brazilian numbers.
The reason they require a separate background check on each sale is to document the serial numbers, they've already started the illegal and unconstitutional registry.
That or it's a poorly designed form, that they don't care to fix. The process is outdated, in that it can only handle one, and they refuse to update it because of the time and money and training.

It could reduce mistakes to almost 0, could save time and money, ext. And so many are like "no we don't want it because this is how we are used to it". They don't want to re-train, or are afraid if they change something, everything will fall apart, or just are afraid of the change all together. Doing it because "it's how we always have"

I honestly think they are in denial and will never own up to what they are doing. It's easier to point fingers and play the blame game to get their control on us.
I only need to point out that most politicians who push gun laws, have no idea what is in the law they wrote. A perfect is example is the lady who posted a Facebook recording of herself cutting off the barrel of an AR-15. Caught federal charges for it and then claimed, in court, she didn't know it was illegal to shorten the length of the barrel. She was one of the many people who pushed for it to be illegal to shorten the barrel.

The monetary motivation is one thing (and no politician would ever say no to money)… But I think the real reason for forcing a background check for each firearm being transferred… is to piece together a registry of firearms as best they can, while still claiming that “we don’t register firearms.”
What needs to be understood is that the disarmament advocates are using a two pronged approach. On the regulatory side, they are being careful to forward 'common sense' infringements that _are not supposed to affect 'gun crime'._ This is so more infringements can be 'required', since the last ones obviously didn't go far enough. The second part of the metric is to conflate criminal activity with the tool used; demonizing the firearm, not the person holding it. Thus, lying about statistics helps; and they apply this lever very generously.
I am from Detroit and I took my CPL class Oct 14th had to wait until Nov 6th for an appointment downtown and it's now Jan 21st and I still haven't received my CPL. Paid around $350 total for the class, gun rental, permit etc.

When I went for my Texas CHL for the first time back in the 90s, we had to watch the NRA's Eddie Eagle gun safety education material This was probably the most innocuous gun safety material you could possibly present, basically directed towards children telling them that if they came across a firearm they should stop, don't touch, leave the area, tell an adult The instructor of the class informed us that the anti-gun side had campaigned aggressively to keep that out of schools It's not a matter of them not believing their rhetoric they know for a fact they are lying

There was a "mass shooting" in Sacramento that was national news for a bit. What it actually was, was a gang shooting with a couple people that got hit in the crossfire. One of the people involved was released early from jail because he earned credits of some kind which because he was a "non violent offender". His "non violent" offense was assaulting his then girl friend and dragging her out by her hair to the front lawn.
@@thenson509 Yup. Even politicians on the left were outraged at that part ... some of them anyway. But the prison system refused to answer their questions they demanded.
We literally have people saying, "Why didn't a good guy with a gun stop this mass shooter?" when the mass shootings happen in gun free zones. If we're talking about CCW holders, obviously a law abiding citizen is not going to risk breaking the law and losing their CCW to carry a weapon in a gun free zone. If we're talking about the police, those are literally good guys with guns stopping a bad guy with a gun. So how can we say, "Why didn't someone with a gun stop the shooter?" when it would be illegal for a CCW holder to do that, and the shooter was literally stopped by a good guy with a gun via law enforcement. Of course, the law enforcement usually doesn't show up until several minutes after the shooting starts while a person who is already there in the situation is there instantaneously. We know that deaths and injuries are more dependent on effective counter response rather than what weapon is used, but weapons and law-abiding gun owners take the blame anyway for the actions of deranged lunatics.
What most CCW holders don't know is it is NOT illegal to conceal carry in a posted "gun free" zone. I carry in posted gun free zones all the time. I even concealed carried my .380 on an ankle holster when I worked at a inner city hospital in Las Vegas. Businesses and places that post gun free signs, it is only a policy, not a law. The only places it is illegal to carry a concealed weapon is government buildings like courthouses, police stations, post offices, an school grounds (unless given written permission by the school superintendent). You even can bring a gun into an airport if it is locked up, unloaded, and you declare you have one.
@@Jaime7188 Each state has different statute regarding enforcement of private gun free zones. Most are only policy but some states do have statutes that make CCW on a private gun free zone criminal offense. Thankfully im in one that does not enforce private gun free zones.
If it’s concealed well how is that sign going to know? I carry every wear except court, and I don’t go to court. And I’m a believer in judged by 12 rather than carried by 6.
The average ccw holder is not trained to take out an active shooter. You expect some joe schmo with a gun to tactically down a person who premeditated a mass murder on what is probably thier first gun fight...ever?

As a trainer in Illinois, you're spot on with the costs... and that doesn't guarantee you a permit. that's to see IF you are allowed a carry permit. Plus you need to pay for and wait for a FOID card, AND pay for a the gun you can legally carry. Between the wait for the FOID, at which point you can buy a firearm, wait for your 72 hour background check, then practice to get competent, then find a carry class, wait for a class to open, take the class, then send away for your carry card. Then you wait up to 3-4 months (depending on whether or not you paid for fingerprints) to get your reply on a carry card. Realistically, you can be looking at a year before you MIGHT be able to carry.

This was absolutely fascinating! Thank you Colion! The audio was entirely tolerable, don't worry about it. Man, talk about giving me some talking points, too!
I live in Illinois and have a state issued FOID & CCL. The costs are... $10.00 Firearm Owner ID (FOID) fee paid to IL State Police ... required to be able to buy or possess firearms or ammo in IL. $150.00 CCL fee paid to IL State Police $200.00 for CCL training (typical, costs varies by training vendor). + cost of 30 rounds of ammo for the CCL skills qualification test Note that some training vendors will let you borrow or rent a weapon to use for the CCL skills qualification, in case you don't already have a weapon. So, it's possible to earn an IL CCL without actually owning a firearm. You likely have additional costs for additional ammo, targets, and range time to use to practice BEFORE taking the CCL skills qualification test. Note that the IL CCL skills qualification test is EXTREMELY (shockingly) easy to pass. You shoot 10 rounds each at a range of 5 / 7 / 10 yards (30 rounds total) at a full-sized silhouette target (B-27), and only 70% need to hit ANYWHERE within the silhouette. So, you shouldn't need a lot of practice to pass the skills qualification test. So, the estimate of $400 cited in the video was fairly close. This cost is ON TOP OF the cost of an actual weapon/holster/ammo that you intend to concealed carry, so this CCL total cost can be a barrier for people in low-income situations. Note that IL is a "shall issue" state, where the ISP is required to issue the FOID and CCL permit within a certain period of time UNLESS there is a specific reason not to issue it.

It is also a revenue generator for local and state coffers. In effect, it is a tax on the right to self-defense. The government has zero power to tax a right. Think of the old 'pole tax' that was levied to prevent freed slaves from voting since most couldn't afford to pay to vote.
So many, many good points in this discussion, that's what I watch your videos for. The points that help to reinforce the reason that the 2nd Amendment was put in place in the Bill of Rights.
I think that a class in high-school, like a civics class and/or home-ed that teaches more useful skills and has a week or two on gun laws/safety would be a huge positive. Something that teaches kids safety with guns, in so many ways, could be so useful. Also lowering the fees but upping the requirements in training, and then give the citizens tax write-offs for having a ccw permit would be super super useful
Way to get the word out! I have drawn up questions in my mind concerning the whole background check system because of how often we hear about a “mass shooting” occurring because someone with mental health issues was so easily able to acquire a firearm.

Gun control has always been about keeping guns away from the poor who are generally more desperate. My guess is almost all things people claim is racism is in actuality classism. 🤷🏽♂️
In Massachusetts, it averages about $200.00 to get your LTC, $100.00 to the police dept, and $100.00 for the safety course, when I train people I always make sure to go over safety first, I’m baffled as to how many people took the course, and know absolutely nothing about how their gun works, or how to use it safely, I won’t even take ammo out until I’m sure they have absorbed what I’ve taught them

I live in Ohio. The best part about that stat is that the study never would have happened if the largest cities hadn't complained about the open carry law.
A couple of cities said that crime was up 5% since the law was passed, so the government ran the numbers across a bunch of big cities.
Crime was indeed up in two of the cities by 5% or less, but it was down in all other large cities in the study by 5-18%.
Oops! Probably shouldn't have brought it up, city folk. You might have been able to quietly pass local ordinances to make life difficult for us hay seeds..
Now, us country bumpkins keep guns in our turnip trucks regardless, but it's nice to know we aren't legally required to unload them when we go into town for fresh spitoons and overalls : )
The Akron/Canton area seems to have calmed down by a non-trivial amount and the study confirmed it.

Recently there was a bit of outcry local to me. A guy self terminated in his home in the middle of the night. He lived across the street from a school. The uproar was that it was counted as a school shooting.

* A 1982 survey of 1,800 male felons in 11 state prisons across the U.S. found:
34% had been “scared off, shot at, wounded, or captured by an armed victim.”
40% had decided not to commit a crime because they “knew or believed that the victim was carrying a gun.”
56% of those interviewed agreed that criminals intentionally avoid armed victims. If criminals know the individual has a weapon, they chose to target another victim.
69% personally knew other criminals who had been “scared off, shot at, wounded, or captured by an armed victim."[228]

In the US, 12.5% of home invasions happen when someone is home. Of those, the victim is injured 26% of the time.
In the UK, over 50% of home invasions happen when someone is home.

Politics, technology & the rest of the world may change around the criminal element, but the core philosophy of criminality is largely consistent.
Criminals are looking for a score, not a fight- unless it happens to be another criminal individual or enterprise that is seen as competition. It's always been that way.
We all know what 'the oldest profession in the world' is, but I'm willing to bet that criminality is the second oldest.😏

Anybody who knows anything about the American electorate is aware that if Democrats drop to below 84% of the black vote then things become very difficult for them when it comes to national elections. Once they've drop to around 81 to 80% of the black vote then winning a national election is highly and I mean highly unlikely. Once they drop below to around 78% then they can never win a national election going forward ever again unless the demographics change completely. Kind of like if you imported 8 million new voters out of nowhere once you realize that you were bleeding millions of votes out of every single demographic.
This is the reason why the enhanced welfare state was created and why the nuclear black family was destroyed. They must keep them dependent upon the system so they can control their vote. Then they show up every 4 years and start using emotional manipulation in the form of fear regards to racism in order to ensure they do not step out of line.
Now everybody wondered Why Donald Trump went from being beloved by Hollywood, beloved by the Democrat Party and the Democrat establishment as a whole and most importantly not only beloved by the black community but idolized by them and then all of a sudden became portrayed as an enemy of them as well as being a white supremacist and a threat. You can get on social media via RUclips and what is now X and previously Twitter and you can go through the media coverage in 2013 and 2014 and very early 2015 in regards to the coverage and treatment of Trump. Donald Trump was often a guest on the view and was absolutely beloved by the women and treated wonderfully. Those women as well as people like Oprah and other prominent celebrities try to push Donald Trump to run for president and told them if he did they would endorse him. This was when they thought he'd run as a Democrat because Donald Trump had primarily been a Democrat not all of his life but much of it. However the divisiveness and radicalization of the left drove him to not only run but run as a Republican. This is the reason why the narrative of Donald Trump was created. The Democrat plantation could not, would not and will not allow their slaves to be taken from them again. Donald Trump was a threat to siphon off a sizable portion of the black vote back over to the Republican Party where it once started but is not owed.
This is what all of this comes down to maintaining power for the Democrat Party.
However now they have imported a new voting demographic to ensure that they can replace the black vote and create a totalitarian revolution so that their party in one party controls this nation for the foreseeable have century and beyond.
Wake up America.

The monetary motivation is one thing (and no politician would ever say no to money)…
But I think the real reason for forcing a background check for each firearm being transferred… is to piece together a registry of firearms as best they can, while still claiming that “we don’t register firearms.”
What needs to be understood is that the disarmament advocates are using a two pronged approach. On the regulatory side, they are being careful to forward 'common sense' infringements that _are not supposed to affect 'gun crime'._ This is so more infringements can be 'required', since the last ones obviously didn't go far enough. The second part of the metric is to conflate criminal activity with the tool used; demonizing the firearm, not the person holding it. Thus, lying about statistics helps; and they apply this lever very generously.

The instructor of the class informed us that the anti-gun side had campaigned aggressively to keep that out of schools
It's not a matter of them not believing their rhetoric they know for a fact they are lying

There was a "mass shooting" in Sacramento that was national news for a bit. What it actually was, was a gang shooting with a couple people that got hit in the crossfire. One of the people involved was released early from jail because he earned credits of some kind which because he was a "non violent offender". His "non violent" offense was assaulting his then girl friend and dragging her out by her hair to the front lawn.
That was the J Street mall shooting in downtown Sacramento. I'm glad you noted the odd credit the parolee received.
@@thenson509 Yup. Even politicians on the left were outraged at that part ... some of them anyway. But the prison system refused to answer their questions they demanded.
Wow...if only women and children were valued more ...and protected.
We literally have people saying, "Why didn't a good guy with a gun stop this mass shooter?" when the mass shootings happen in gun free zones.
If we're talking about CCW holders, obviously a law abiding citizen is not going to risk breaking the law and losing their CCW to carry a weapon in a gun free zone.
If we're talking about the police, those are literally good guys with guns stopping a bad guy with a gun.
So how can we say, "Why didn't someone with a gun stop the shooter?" when it would be illegal for a CCW holder to do that, and the shooter was literally stopped by a good guy with a gun via law enforcement.
Of course, the law enforcement usually doesn't show up until several minutes after the shooting starts while a person who is already there in the situation is there instantaneously.
We know that deaths and injuries are more dependent on effective counter response rather than what weapon is used, but weapons and law-abiding gun owners take the blame anyway for the actions of deranged lunatics.
What most CCW holders don't know is it is NOT illegal to conceal carry in a posted "gun free" zone. I carry in posted gun free zones all the time. I even concealed carried my .380 on an ankle holster when I worked at a inner city hospital in Las Vegas. Businesses and places that post gun free signs, it is only a policy, not a law. The only places it is illegal to carry a concealed weapon is government buildings like courthouses, police stations, post offices, an school grounds (unless given written permission by the school superintendent). You even can bring a gun into an airport if it is locked up, unloaded, and you declare you have one.
@@Jaime7188depends on the state.
@@Jaime7188
Each state has different statute regarding enforcement of private gun free zones.
Most are only policy but some states do have statutes that make CCW on a private gun free zone criminal offense.
Thankfully im in one that does not enforce private gun free zones.
If it’s concealed well how is that sign going to know? I carry every wear except court, and I don’t go to court. And I’m a believer in judged by 12 rather than carried by 6.

As a trainer in Illinois, you're spot on with the costs... and that doesn't guarantee you a permit. that's to see IF you are allowed a carry permit. Plus you need to pay for and wait for a FOID card, AND pay for a the gun you can legally carry.
Between the wait for the FOID, at which point you can buy a firearm, wait for your 72 hour background check, then practice to get competent, then find a carry class, wait for a class to open, take the class, then send away for your carry card. Then you wait up to 3-4 months (depending on whether or not you paid for fingerprints) to get your reply on a carry card.
Realistically, you can be looking at a year before you MIGHT be able to carry.

Excellent interview. Outstanding Colion!

Who would have thought that people that want to take away someone's right to self defense, others, property or state would just make things up or lie about it?
The same ppl that want to take away YOUR private property rights.
But not THEIR private prop. right.
Audio not bad, the gentleman’s voice was deep enough you hardly notice the echo. Great content! Thank you for being our voice.
The average number of people killed in a mass shooting in Europe is much higher than one in the US despite there being far more semi automatic rifles in the US.
Many European countries also have more frequent mass shootings once you account for population.
I didn't even hear the echo because I was too focused on the incredibly important conversation. Good job!
This is a really important video for people to see. Thank you for making it.
Thank you for an informative and wake up America interview.
This is great stuff. Highest and best use of this platform. Much respect sirs. 🙏
One of those people that Los Angeles County gave a CCW to was the mayor of Lancaster. No one else could carry in the city, but he could.
MY Freedom requires NO "Fees". MY Freedom was given to me by my Creator. The COST of Fighting for my Freedom
has already been Paid for by the Blood of my Fore-Fathers, and my Brothers in Arms, who believe the same thing.
This was absolutely fascinating! Thank you Colion! The audio was entirely tolerable, don't worry about it. Man, talk about giving me some talking points, too!
I live in Illinois and have a state issued FOID & CCL.
The costs are...
$10.00 Firearm Owner ID (FOID) fee paid to IL State Police
... required to be able to buy or possess firearms or ammo in IL.
$150.00 CCL fee paid to IL State Police
$200.00 for CCL training (typical, costs varies by training vendor).
+ cost of 30 rounds of ammo for the CCL skills qualification test
Note that some training vendors will let you borrow or rent a weapon to use for the CCL skills qualification, in case you don't already have a weapon. So, it's possible to earn an IL CCL without actually owning a firearm.
You likely have additional costs for additional ammo, targets, and range time to use to practice BEFORE taking the CCL skills qualification test. Note that the IL CCL skills qualification test is EXTREMELY (shockingly) easy to pass. You shoot 10 rounds each at a range of 5 / 7 / 10 yards (30 rounds total) at a full-sized silhouette target (B-27), and only 70% need to hit ANYWHERE within the silhouette. So, you shouldn't need a lot of practice to pass the skills qualification test.
So, the estimate of $400 cited in the video was fairly close.
This cost is ON TOP OF the cost of an actual weapon/holster/ammo that you intend to concealed carry,
so this CCL total cost can be a barrier for people in low-income situations.
Note that IL is a "shall issue" state, where the ISP is required to issue the FOID and CCL permit within a certain period of time UNLESS there is a specific reason not to issue it.
We have never had too much of or gotten enough of Dr, John R. Lott. When it comes to neutrality or lack of positional bias, this is the Guy. Love listening to him.
Wow! This is such a truthful video! I wished people would start using logic to pass laws instead of their emotions. This video shows the fallacy of using emotions instead of logic!
I barely even heard the echo. Overall, this vidoe was phenomenal and it needs to be seen by everyone possible!! I've shared it with a couple of my gun folks.
Dude had some very good points. Great discussion! Thank you
13:22 This is absolutely true. The horrendous nature of the welfare system terribly penalizes two parent families. Its just awful and no one wants to change it.
Thank you... Great points
Please keep the conversation and information coming to the light!
Time to make "background checks" a requirement for voting.
@@yyy-875 I don't know if I'd support actually disallowing a citizen from seeking candidacy to a public office on some qualification criteria (although a criminal background check is appropriate), but public examination of qualifications should be sine qua non to the voting process.
Well felons aren't allowed to vote
ill settle for voter phot ids and signature verification.
Better yet, let's just stop giving power to government and take it back for ourselves, the individuals.
Black Guns Matter
The purpose for individual background checks per gun is they go into the federal registry that doesn't exist.
thats a bingo!
Doesn't exist!? 🤣
It is also a revenue generator for local and state coffers. In effect, it is a tax on the right to self-defense. The government has zero power to tax a right. Think of the old 'pole tax' that was levied to prevent freed slaves from voting since most couldn't afford to pay to vote.
Exactly @@justa.american8303
Such an informative conversation that everyone should hear.
You're awesome brother keep spreading the truth
You are right about all of this! Both of you! And even though you are right… what can we do ? “Get involved” right! Thanks for what you do!!
WOW!, the statistics are amazing and truthful!. This guy needs to be on TV!, there's a lot of info I've never even thought about!. Great job!.
Colin thank you very much for what you do to shine light on these issues
Thanks for getting TRUTH and FACTS out there brother!!
In most cases where you have mass shootings or murders in general in this country they are in democratically run cities, with strictest gun laws.
So many, many good points in this discussion, that's what I watch your videos for.
The points that help to reinforce the reason that the 2nd Amendment was put in place in the Bill of Rights.
More people really need to see this video and have this information.
I think that a class in high-school, like a civics class and/or home-ed that teaches more useful skills and has a week or two on gun laws/safety would be a huge positive. Something that teaches kids safety with guns, in so many ways, could be so useful. Also lowering the fees but upping the requirements in training, and then give the citizens tax write-offs for having a ccw permit would be super super useful
You are literally advocating for a tax on a right. Which is unconstitutional. Wtf is wrong with people.
Great job getting this important information out! Thank you!
Way to get the word out! I have drawn up questions in my mind concerning the whole background check system because of how often we hear about a “mass shooting” occurring because someone with mental health issues was so easily able to acquire a firearm. I learned a lot from this episode and will be doing my part in spreading this knowledge you’ve shared with us. Thank you for the education, and keep fighting the good fight my brothers.
The media has always been spewing out bs about everything but the "facts" they presented about firearms and guns ownmership were so absurd that I cant help but laugh at it😂😂😂😂. Those parrots cant even tell the differences between a pump action shotgun and semi auto rifles, then there was that statement how .223 rifles are overpowered. The news outlets dont even try to cook up high quality propaganda anymore and just assume their viewers are too stupid to notice.
There are over 129 nations safer than the US. Educate yourself
Unfortunately, most viewers are too ignorant to understand.
@@anonymous.anonymity.what the heck does that have to do with the Constitution and Bill of Rights in America? I've personally been to over twenty different countries and none have the 2A rights that we have as American citizens! Most countries have taken firearms from their population...so explain how that has worked out?
@@goodcitizen64 the US has the highest rate of incarceration in the world. Your guns didn’t prevent this.
@@goodcitizen64 The US law enforcement kills at a rate of 33.1 people in 10 million.
UK 0.5 in 10 million.
Japan 0.2 in 10 million.
Switzerland 0 in 10 million.
Your guns don’t prevent this, in fact they provided a perfect excuse for police to use lethal force.
I thought due process in a court of law was a constitutional right?
The echo isn't bad at all! I'm sensitive to that kind of thing and it was bearable, so don't worry about it. But thanks for the heads-up! 😊 Great interview!
Thanks gentlemen !!!! Well said
Dope interview and content. Thx bro✊🏾✊🏾
Yes I fully agree that politicians/media/anti-groups like to only point out the "facts" that pushes their agendas. To the point that they pretty much are giving half truths. Then we get the sheeple that just eat it up without doing the research to find the real truth. Thanks for making the effort to get the truth out to the people, I just hope more people will watch/listen to what you are putting out.
⭐️ Absolutely! Hence The Propaganda & Agenda pertaining to Guns. Gun Control is 1 in Each Hand..
AMEN
We need merch that says Gun Control is Racism.
Why?? It won't change anything...Too many people are brainwashed
Look up Black Guns Matter.
That is where gun control started and it snowballed into even more hate and lies..
Gun control has always been about keeping guns away from the poor who are generally more desperate. My guess is almost all things people claim is racism is in actuality classism. 🤷🏽♂️
4 replies and I can't see any of em. Pretty weird.
It's kind of unreal how expensive it is to just apply for your concealed carry license in new york
Great info! Echo is easy to listen to. Not distracting at all. Thank you for posting!!!
In Massachusetts, it averages about $200.00 to get your LTC, $100.00 to the police dept, and $100.00 for the safety course, when I train people I always make sure to go over safety first, I’m baffled as to how many people took the course, and know absolutely nothing about how their gun works, or how to use it safely, I won’t even take ammo out until I’m sure they have absorbed what I’ve taught them
