How Conservatives Enable School Shootings

- Howdy y'all, in light of the most recent major school shooting in Uvalde, Texas I thought we should take a look at how conservatives respond to these shooting as well as examine what measures we can take to prevent future mass shootings.

I left teaching for this exact reason. The fear of active shooter was overwhelming. In my 3 years in public education I experienced 5 bomb threats and several schools in my area had active shootings that didn’t reach national coverage. Illinois also ruled that, "being shot," is a part of teacher's job expectations recently. It's crazy that it is so normalized and almost expected in our society. Conservatives love to preach pro-life and "do it for the children," but then do the absolute most to make it hard for children to live. Thank you for apreading this information.
I mean, not all conservatives. Most actually want stuff like this done, but greedy power hungry old men see no reason to bring awareness..democrats as well. *C o u g h* Joe *cOugH*
I have a friend who is a substitute teacher in California. One day at a school he was working at the fire alarm was triggered - and he got so scared.
He wondered if he was going to die. He wondered how he should get the kids to leave the classroom, or if they even should. Should they hide under desks? Barricade the door?
Was he going to see any of his kids get murdered today? Would he need to take a bullet for them?
It was all fine, they left the building and it was a false alarm. A prank.
But when sharing how terrifying it had been, I asked "Weren't you scared it was a fire?" And he was just... speechless for a bit.
He hadn't ever really considered a fire. He did all the fire drill stuff since it was a fire alarm, but his mind was 100% worrying about a school shooting - because that's just more common.
That interaction has always stuck with me. As an Australian born after the gun ban, its just... alien.
I know people with guns - my sister is a park ranger, she has shot foxes and feral cats.
My partners family live in the country amongst farmers with guns - and he has gone kangaroo hunting before. His mother's friends are indigenous rangers, who kill kangaroos when they need to be culled and clean up the invasive deer and fox populations on their land.
I had a friend in high school who did pistol shooting as a sport. Her pistol was kept at the club.
Guns exist. They didn't stop existing with the ban - they just stopped being toys and started being tools. I've never even seen a gun in person. Not even once. Why would I? I don't shoot.
its more dangerous driving to work but ok. paranoid freak.
how naive to think banning guns will stop evil people from killing innocents.
@@LezSpringfield
OP never suggested banning guns. Stop parroting this crap.
one thing I need to say about uvalde is the claim that the shooter barricaded himself in a classroom was absolute bullshit manufactured by the cops to cover their coward asses
it reminds me of the one song that guy wrote about the cops that was like "take an hour to open a door that was never locked" which i think was directly referencing uvalde you honestly couldn't get a group of people more incompetent than those motherfuckers even if you tried they're a complete joke and NOBODY should trust them with their lives because they've proven time and again that they aren't here to keep anyone safe
even if he did, the shooter was still OUTNUMBERED! cowards should not bide by the oath "protect and serve".
Correct me if im wrong, but wasn't the door of the classroom unlocked the entire time?
@@abambers_e Outnumbered, outgunned, trapped, and somehow they couldn't get the bastard for over an hour. It's amazing how quick the cowards run scared when someone else is willing to shoot back at them. Happy to bully and abuse unarmed, law-abiding citizens though.
@@gudkush420 yep, and they spent more effort into tackling and arresting parents than the shooter
Whe I clicked on the video "How conservatives enable shootings" I didn't expect Natsuki to appear with sunglasses and start educating me on politics
We had the opposite phenomenon, I thought “Doki Doki Discourse” would not have been the hope of dedicated political commentary. And then I saw the title lol
I was sadistically assaulted at 12 years old by an SRO because I got up from my seat and tried to leave detention. He grabbed me by my wrist and twisted my arm in front of my body. "Does this hurt?" I involuntarily tried to correct my posture to stop the pain. "How about this?" He twisted further. I could feel my shirt ripping and tears were streaming down my face. "This wouldn't hurt if you stopped resisting." This grown man couldn't handle the "resistance" of a 12 year old white child and proceeded to cuff me and refused to take his hand off the taser for over an hour. 6 hours later, i was released from a 51/50. Imagine what that would've looked like if I wasn't white. SRO's make schools dangerous by escalating any situation they're involved in.
I gasped outloud. Im so sorry :( how could anyone be so cruel?? I can't imagine or even fathom what theyd do to a POC person. Hope youre okay too

This feels fake, but if it is true, just take this as a testament to how absurdly deranged this is.
@@jackys_handle --- NO. SRO BULLIES ARE NOT A FAKE NARRATIVE . . . In the real world, police cadets who are not hired by city police-departments usually join a suburban police department where they unleash their inner-John-Wayne-punk upon the local adolescents, illegal-alien restaurant workers, and high-school students. If you disbelieve this sociologic reality of the U.S., then it is time for you to repatriate to northern Europe, where THEY do not have these mushroom-boy problems, i.e Trumpite scum with guns.
Republicans like to think Lincoln would be happy with their modern state of the party. Honestly, he would be SO ashamed and he would call out ALL of the crazy shit they do and say.
So If you're going by that logic every member of the founding fathers would be appalled to see how our system is currently being run and Lincoln contributed his fair share to how this system is turning
@@mathiasschafer2793 Thing is, _they would be appalled!_ Republicans are so Christian that Thomas Jefferson is turning in his grave at how they're trying to remove the wall between Church and State, and they'd all be horrified at how much the Second Amendment is being misused.
meanwhile the democrats wanna castrate kids and take away 2a rights
@@mathiasschafer2793 The Republican Party of today was the Democratic Party of Lincoln’s day. The paradigm shift took place in the 1960s. Lincoln had nothing to do with it. That was my point
And Lincoln was also known for being fond of children so seeing his party allowing crazies do stuff to kids would've made him "screw this, I'm voting Democrat"
it hurts to hear the bit about "thoughts and prayers" after what happened about 5 months after this video was posted, the club q shooting. they didnt even bring out their worthless thoughts and prayers when the queer people were killed. they were cheering for it.
Kids dying is a much more saddening occasion than adult nightclubbers. Stop claiming Victims for arbitrary reasons, these people also wouldn’t flinch if a shooting happened in a conservative bar.
@@Funkiytrue and honest both parties are fucked up, I only choose Republican because I’m conservative, but I agree that most republicans are fucked up
@@Funkiy You're being willfully ignorant
@@Funkiybecause there’s no such thing as a conservative bar lol. It’s just a bar. If a bar was shot up, even if it were full of conservative patrons, leftists would still talk about gun control.
This has literally happened too.
There has almost never been a popular mass shooting that was just passed over because of political alignment.
Just cuz u guys hate gay people and want them to die doesn’t mean everyone else wants you to die lmao. Projecting fr
@@Funkiy Are you trying to say that "adult nightclubbers" dont have families and friends?
"It's a mental health problem!"
Okay so how about funding universal mental health care services
"No."
if its ran by the government no way it’ll be quality care
they truly don't gaf
we need to make mental asylums great again
@@LezSpringfieldAmen
To be fair at the least that might be a start but yeah they'e even not willing to take the steps to fix said mental health situation.Let alone doing anything involving gun legislation.
the '‘No Way To Prevent This,’ Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens' will never stop being sadly hilariously applicable
Yeah cuz the other nations getting nice stabbing just look at England with her knife problem
People have already said the solution which is to arm up so you can protect people.
You can prevent mass shootings by deterring them this way and if one happens anyway you can fight back.
@@Cacowninja did you watch the video with your eyes closed? the video literally explains why it wouldn't work School resource officers simply don't help and studies show it doesn't affect the amount of school shooting deaths arming teachers is very expensive and it could potentially create dangerous situations
@@blurbutnerd8355 You're proving my point if school resource officers suck then obviously you need back up. You know like armed teachers.
What studies show that arming teachers doesn't help?
Also arming teachers isn't expensive. You know why? Because they buy the guns with their own money! It's not a tax dollar funded policy the teachers fund it themselves.
Also a school shooting is already a dangerous situation. Why not have the freaking tools to fight back? The shooter has a tool to take you out at a distance you need a tool to take him out at a distance.
You people just want to be unarmed for some reason. Like that freaking does any good.
You have to shoot the shooter and that means having a gun too.
@@blurbutnerd8355 It is most definitely satire.
7:17 The whole "one entrance, one exit" thing has always... baffled me. Like, what are you going to do in the event of a fire? Or if you need to evacuate after an earthquake or tornado? That is not safe in the slightest. Honestly, it probably would worsen most emergencies.
Well maybe not that but at least like every exit is dual door like an air lock. Actually stopped one of the more almost recent school shootings
What you need is "one entry, multiple exits." Meaning one regular entry/exit door and several other emergency exit doors that are locked to the outside. Also, the main door needs to be locked during classes, and every school should have at least one resource officer at all times the school is open.
It also opens new options for attack that would otherwise be impossible. Consider the KyoAni Arson Attack.
Its fine, the physics teacher can calculate the trajectories of the bullets fired at them and dodge them like in the matrix.
Not with what they're getting paid. They'll probably calculate the trajectory and purposely get in the way just to get out of a crappy job. Or at least get as close to a Vacation as they can afford.

when you said "it's a tall ask to expect teachers to sacrifice themselves in an event of a shooter," it reminded me of when my 6th grade science teacher told us up front, "if i get shot or wounded don't even stay for me, defend yourselves and run." it was sort of insane to hear it come from someone i don't even really know...
I mean, noble that the teacher would be willing to die for their students. Sad though you'll only find a small handful of teachers that are willing to do so or even capable of protecting
My high school science teacher talked at the start of the year as a shooter drill was coming up, that "If a shooter wanted to get at my students, they would have to fucking get through me first." It's the only time she dropped the F bomb all year, so she was serious.
I don't know whether it would have played out that way, but I of course admire that (and her in general, she was a great teacher and person). But honestly, more than that it just chilled me that it was something that she'd given enough completely serious thought to make up her mind and say with confidence that she'd lay down her life to protect her students.
How messed up is the world we live in that that is a part of teacher's job consideration.
I was asked by my conservative mom recently "can you believe there are countries where guns are illegal??" yeah bc we're literally the only country in the whole world that has had 600 mass shootings in a single year. no way im staying here for college next year LOL
That 600 stat is a blatant lie, im guessing youre going off the subreddit that was turned into a website that counts airsoft gun drive bys and gang violence as shootings, the real statistic is 250 in the last 50 years, keep in mind 250 is also the number of shooting deaths in the last 50 years
When I was in elementary school an SRO actually broke my arm while I was having a breakdown from overstimulation (I'm autistic) and there was literally nothing done
I'm glad I'm not in the USA or any place with SROs because I would have been killed in one of my breakdowns
At a school near mine a sro dragged a student by his hair down bleacher stairs
Mine in high school was some kid's aunt or something (though many of my peers are somehow related anyway) and she spent most of her days just hanging with the kids during break and lunch.
Our high school SRO groomed then m*lested a cheerleader...
My brother had an episode and was expelled. Didn't hurt anyone... It was a southern school of course
“Limiting the school to one exit…” I’m sorry… THAT’S A *SOLUTION*?
Smartest liberal
@@hylianmango8272 how is it a solution taking away kids ability to escape and let the shooter corner them? Go ahead and explain, I’ll wait.
@@thiccum2668 Been waiting a few months now. Maybe they left through the one exit
Metal detectors were put in our school and they just suck, you take out anything that might set it off and hold it in front of you, meaning IF someone was going to take a gun to their first period, they just have to put it in a bit of disguise. Stupid shit, i can't beleive we spent money on this
Even if the metal detector went off, why would a shooter even care?
I had steel toed boots that I could put objects into and they would never make me tale them off.
@@ethansprague2005 nah the shooter would raise their hands, drop their guns, apologize, and willingly turn themselves in 100%
The mass shooter will just walk through the metal detector shooting, they don't care about laws. They are on a mission to kill people and then take their own lives.
Republican three button routine in response to a mass shooting:
1. Thoughts and prayers.
2. Blame somebody or something.
3. Do nothing and ignore the problem.
Democrats
1 Gun control (which would of never stop the shooter)
2step on child grave to push gun control
3 blame the scare looking gun instead of the person
4 pull shit out of there ass when talking about guns
5 shooting down the Republican bill that would've gave more funding to secure schools
Some great responses!
*checks how many kids are dead*
Oh fuck…
@@SalemWarren-le3nf ah yes cuase going after law abiding people will solve anything
Democrat three buttons routine:
Ban whatever caused the issue - or attempt to ban it
Blame Republicans
Play the race/sex card
So what do you wanna do about the problem? Banning guns won’t do shit. I could go to Home Depot right now and make my own if I wanted to. Also, you can’t stop criminals with more laws when they don’t care about the laws we already have in place. So what do you want to do

I'm a Brit but my dad is a pro gun American from Florida. The conversations I have with him over gun control genuinely just baffle my mind. It seems A LOT of it is tied to ego, and this weird (often masculine) obsession with empowerment. When he came to Europe for a long travel holiday, he was panicking about not being able to bring his handgun, and literally faked a leg injury so he could carry a hefty walking stick with him at all times (the proper big gnarly root looking ones). I've tried bringing up to him the number of statisics that show you're MORE LIKELY to cause injury/death to yourself or others if you draw a gun during something like a robbery, but he still swears he'd be the big hero who'd win the shoot out. He also tried to bring his hand gun into Universal Park and couldn't understand why they wouldn't let him, because "wHaT iF sHoOtEr".
Where I'm from in the UK we're very rural, lots and lots of farmland, so we actually have quite a lot of guns in the area. Most farmers own them, and I know a lot of people who recreationally do things like clay shooting or pheasant shooting durng the peak seasons. These guns are all regulated with applications, have to legally be locked away, and police come to check on them usually annually to ensure everything is up to code. No one minds this, is just part of owning a gun, same as how you have to apply for a driving licence, take your car for a yearly check up (a legal necessity in UK) and pay insurance etc. I also think there's just not really any identity behind gun ownership here, no one brags about it or makes it who they are. It's just not part of the culture.
American conservatives love to try and bring up knife crime in London as a thing, but I sure as fuck would rather face up against/run from a single guy with a knife, rather than a guy mowing down crowds with an automatic rifle. The two aren't even comparable.
@@charlemagne2442we can always amend that. Or shit if you get rid of the U.S. standing army and move to each state having a government, federally regulated Militia then sure why the hell not. Otherwise this shit is so ridiculous anymore.
@@charlemagne2442 when it comes to states being armed I should think so. The Federal government should set the ground rules for what makes sense, based on what leaves everyone modestly armed enough. What would be even better is to just scrap the Marines, Navy, Air Force, Army, everything that’s a standing army and fold what’s needed from those into the States’ coast guards and national guards, and rebrand those as the states militia (that way you already have the infrastructure) then we get rid of all the other “militias” (oath keepers, etc.) since they wouldn’t be federally regulated. If you can’t tell, I’m not a huge proponent of “states rights” because that just leads to people undermining the entire process, like they do now.
@@charlemagne2442do you think you can fight the corrupt government?
I support the 2nd amendment and gun ownership, BUT GOD DAMN IT THE ATF NEEDS TO START CRACKING DOWN ON THE FUCKING CRIMINALS NOT MAKING STUPID LAWS TO GET INNOCENT PEOPLE. AND HOLY SHIT WHY IS IT SO GOD DAMN EASY TO GET A GUN? I support gun ownership, but god damn it, the system needs reforms, really bad.
@@felixargyle20 Alone? No. I think if people have the resources and are willing to stand up for what they believe in and run for offices of any kind, we could have further progress in what we want to see happen. I would prefer this to people that spend 24/7 on the internet and complain about things, yet never take the extra step. And no, I don't condone violence to convince people or get your way.
A conservative bill for armed teachers would look something like "all teachers must be armed at all times during school hours, we will also be cutting school budget by 14%. No firearm training for teachers"
Can we just start mailing mass shooting crime scene photos to these politicians? They should have to directly look at the deaths they caused
Sadly I don’t think it would move them one bit, they just don’t care
Mail them the corpses.
No need to give them more f*p material, Those monsters probably get off on that
They're ghouls. They don't care
Put the bodies on tv, so we all have to see it and force our horrible politicians to act
The phrase "Transsexual.leftist illegal alien" sounds like a fucking line from South Park

Im aware but right permits means FFL which is hard to get and even harder to maintain.
My thing on "mental health" is that with a percentage of mass shooters having no history of violence, the issue isn't a personal one, but a social one. We must admit that the American Social structure is so stressful and back-breaking, it's plausible for any one normal law-abiding citizen to succumb to the stress and anxiety that is LITTERALLY encouraged through our economic atmosphere.
women, on average, have worse mental health than men, but women commit a far smaller percentage of mass shootings. the problem isn’t mental health.
agnew's strain theory basically
You realize mental health is wider than that, right? My man, it refers to a variety of things, and having listened to the professionals on the topic and testimonies from shooters themselves who are currently alive- one big thing about is is that they wanted to die. Depression, suicide. Hm, that sounds like mental illness to me. Oh; but what could I know? Maybe 2 years of studying health, anatomy, and physiology doesn’t make me know a bit more on the topic than the average Joe. Mental health and mental illness are both connected and disconnected. Some mental illnesses can be attributed to mental health, and vice versa; but that isn’t the norm. What I’m getting at is that shooters don’t need a history. No one does. It just takes mental illness and just that moment where you snap.
The problem behind school shootings is toxic masculinity and male entitlement, in addition to over availability of guns.
This is my belief on the issue pretty much, but I also personally believe that it's why gun control won't "solve" the issue - it'll turn a lot of would-be shootings into other kinds of violence. This is kind of what happens when people's basic needs aren't met.
I was surprised to learn that this is closer to conservative arguments than leftist arguments, because I have never heard a compelling conservative argument relating to guns, at all. By contrast, leftist arguments don't seem to me to understand these issues in context.

@@joshuaoverlord5327 More then 70% of all shooters have a background usually domestic violence. Its not like we cant predict who is a possible treath.
@@Sunaki1000 that sounds like a court issue or a failure in progress but then again you see BLUE cities where they're saying abolish prison while defunding police.
@@Sunaki1000 by the way it's innocent until proven guilty not guilty until proven innocent there's already something in place. There's been plenty of times where there's enough evidence to suspect a shooting my happen but authorities do not act in the information
@@joshuaoverlord5327 Yeah, cause the System does not work. If anything it makes people more violent.
I just watched a Video yesterday what got in dept why that is. Also Abolishing the Police isnt a imideate Goal of the Group, its the Idea of replacing it whit something better somewhat in the Futur.
And you think of Punishment. Preventing Crime, that doesnt mean you sould just arrest suspected People. Ignoring the Fact what claims of domestic Abuse often results in no Action, limiting Weapons on People who do act Violent, is not unreasonable. Also, many People feel ashamed of going to Therapy, or they want, but nothing is accessable, or to expensive.
Or the Standards for good Therapeuts are to low.
Its more then just harassing People, its a Systemic Adjustment.
I made the point that an armed teacher could shoot a student in a fit of rage and someone thought that was a crazy argument.
There are some seriously unhinged teachers out there. My teacher for example shared a story about a fellow teacher who was shot after all the students went home but the teachers were there working still and the building was in lockdown and the teachers were terrified. They claimed a student who they didn't like broke in and shot her, problem is the student was at a friends house the entire time and the teacher had a gun in her purse. Turns out she purposely shot herself in a non-vital area just to blame a kid she didn't like because he was hispanic with attempted murder.
Theres also nothing stopping a teacher from being a mass shooter either, no my knowledge it hasn't happened yet but nothing makes it impossible
i had a sub that literally talked about how people like the kids he found annoying got shot or something. fucked shit
I grew up in a household with guns. They were always locked up when not in use by my dad or brother (hunting and trap shooting). Ammo was kept locked up in an entirely different part of the house in a safe in a locked cabinet my dad had the only key to. Gun safety was drilled into me since I was little. It isnt hard to be responsible!
Everyone in my family wants stronger gun control laws.
This is a thing I think most people dont seem to get...
From what you say, your family would be able to have a gun even in the more strict countries like Sweden (gun and ammo in a secure place, separate from one another). Logic says that most "responsible citizens" would also be the case (if not Sweden level, at least a middle ground between US and Sweden), so no problem in changing the law... right?
Every "responsible gun owner" against stricter law only shows how much irresponsible they are (if not with their guns, with negligent gun owners being a thing and causing trouble).
I find it so ironic too that conservatives think that gun control laws will greatly affect responsible gun owners yet I see you and a lot of other self proclaimed responsible gun owners post all over Twitter that there should be better gun control. Yet conservatives aren't even hearing you guys out on it.
It honestly infuriates me that these ghouls don't ever hear you out and yet justify a white supremacist shooter with "he's a nice plucky kid with mental health problems" while slapping black shooters with the most vile language possible.

Did someone actually blame OneShot? What the fuck?! I just recently finished my first, and hopefully only, playthrough of the game. To say it made me much more open to peace and much more sympathetic is an understatement. Honestly, that game changed my entire world view.
As an Aussie, it's CRAZY learning about how many shootings you guys get. Like, Port Arthur was a tragedy in a long string over the course of a decade that marked a turning point for us, and we banned all semi-auto rifles (and made all other guns very very hard to get, especially hand guns, which I think you can only ever take out of a gun case when at a range, not even use them for home defence). Now, my entire 20 years of life, the last time I heard about a 'school shooting' was someone's bolt action rifle accidentally firing and hitting the wall of a school in Perth a few months ago.
Aussies explaining how their gun control works despite never having a gun problem rven when they had guns
@@hylianmango8272 Um....that's just plain false. My dad and mum said that even when my older brother was born a year before Port Arthur, around 30% of the people they knew had guns of some form. ESPECIALLY our rural population (who made up almost half of our population at the time). Guns were a massive part of our culture for a long time, since it came from the idea we had to protect our farmland from the natives and animals during colonisation. Hell, I have seen photos of my dad in BFC (a sporting goods store), and there were like 40 or so rifles behind him. Guns were easily accessible, and a lot of people had them.
@@Benwut
I said gun PROBLEM, meaning you guys had guns but not many gun deaths
@@hylianmango8272 Well, you're right for the most part, however, leading up to Port Arthur, we did have I think 12 or 13 shootings with over 10 casualties throughout the 80s, which, scaled to our population of 12 million at the time, would be equivalent to 216 shootings in the US that decade. Which, whilst substantially lower than the ammount of shootings in the US, was still what should be called a shooting "problem"
@@Benwut
10 deaths in 10 years isnt much
I’d like to mention what a huge fire safety hazard it is to only have one entrance and exit in a building…
I grew up in a deeply religious, conservative Christian town. I was raised on propaganda like PragerU. Until embarrassingly recently, I thought Trump was a pretty cool guy and that gun control was stupid. It's channels like this that are seriously helping me deprogram myself. Thank you.

A year later and there has been practically no repercussions for the police who failed to act, a handful were fired or resigned, but no one has faced charges. Another reminder that cops are legally protected from having to put themselves in any sort of danger to stop a crime.
I-i simply cannot allow this complete misunderstanding of how the demon core works.
The demon core becomes deadly when fully closed not when opened. The incident was caused by a researcher testing it while it was almost entirely closed, propping the reflective lid up with the edge of a screwdriver, however this carelessness led to the screwdriver being knocked out of place, allowing the core to be completely enclosed by the reflective shields, causing it to go critical and release a deadly wave of radiation for a brief moment before it was opened again almost immediately after.
source?
@@kriegenjoyer6913Plainly Difficult has a great video on it. So does Kyle Hill if memory serves. Plus theres a number of reports online. Also it's just how criticality as a whole works. The reflector shields surrounding the core do just that - reflect neutrons back into the plutonium mass. The neutrons will be more likely by a MASSIVE degree to hit the nucleus of a plutonium atom, causing an excursion of a massive amount of energy in the form of radiation. That's called criticality - it's the basis on which nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons work.

Unrelated to the video entirely but my brother has the same orange shirt that you’re wearing in the start of the video, and seeing a shirt I associate with 13 year old tomfoolery in a video on school shootings was quite the surprise.

Also, they're called amendments.

Please look up the definition of amend.
Look at the 18th amendment, the 21st amendment undid that. We could easily have an amendment to undo the 2nd amendment

Guns are a genuine solution to such issues though, it's realistic to say 'hey, what if we train teachers to defend their students instead of leaving them entirely defenseless', but bullet proof school bag concept is rather unrealistic on account of weight.
Infact, although not a 1:1 replica, the shooting in an Indianapolis Mall just over a year ago (late july 2022) is a great example of how armed people stop shooters, one man concealed carrying prevented a mass shooting by killing said shooter with a gun.
I propose that Every American exclusively carry arms from the time the second amendment was written. Imagine every armed shooter carrying flintlock, and having to powder there gun every time they shoot, conveniently enough time for someone else to tackle them to the ground to give them a good head stomping.

You wastly underestimate the technology that was around back then.
@theaureliasys6362 and you overestimate how available that tech was.
Remember, that Danish repeater people talk about was only issued to the Danish royal guard and George Washington could not get them for his troops.
The militaries of the world only started to appretiate repeaters after the battle of plevna in the 1880s
That would never pass in Congress because that is a direct violation of the second amendment
Gun legislation wouldn't target actually responsible gun owners... The fact that so called "responsible" gun owners can't wrap their heads around this fact is quite frankly concerning
"so called "responsible" gun owners can't wrap their heads around this fact": Because even they know they are not the responsible gun owners they claim to be.
It would literally have to target responsible gun owners. As in reality, gun owners are already pretty responible. None of these kids would have legally been allowed to get a gun, eould go to whatever lengths they could to get a gun.
Legal gun owners don't exactly just hand guns to people who ask either.
So passing laws requireing the locking up of guns probably won't deter the kid's attempts. Pretty much anything that can be put in place can also be defeated by a dertermined, cunning person with access to the location. Locks can be picked, most surprisingly easily, securing rods can be ground right through with pretty common household power tools, as can safes.
I can assure you that your end goal is the disarming pf america, which will simply devolve into civil war without disarming america and result in the validation of the need to possess arms by the victors, regardless of side.
At this point, you simply have to contrive that society itself is broken. That is what is driving those kids to do what they are doing. As not so long ago, kids in rural communities jammed rifles in their cars or even lockers during school to take hunting afterschool. No shooting happened in this generation... Likly because this previous generation felt better. More intigrated into society overall snd gleamed more satisfaction with life.
So yes, pretty much all these school shooters have mental health issues.
@@bh24xWhat would you say about other countries that have majorly disarmed their populations, and it has greatly decreased the amount of mass shootings. America has a unique gun culture among other countries so it’s not like it’s a 1:1 conversion, but so few shootings happen like this anywhere else and children’s lives are at stake
@thekatdev6007 None of this is a problem. Just make it more likely that the person who's getting a gun is responsible. Have them take a gun safety course, as a necessity. This should theoretically increase the amount of people who keep their guns locked up in their safe and away from the little shit who wants to take it and go murder people. Increasing knowledgeability isn't restricting freedoms.
There are responsible gun owners. They just arent the ones amassing a large stock pile of weapons while fantasizing about murdering people with different political beliefs or personal identities.
My local school district has the elementary students pick one sole hiding space THEMSELVES to hide in in the case of an active shooter. This space could be anywhere in the building, and it is not approved or monitored by any adults. They recently had an undisclosed shooting drill, so the children had no idea it was a drill. The children ran to their spots, and my cousin was literally sobbing because he had no idea if his hiding spot was good enough because no adult had given him any direction. Not only that, it apparently took the adults quite awhile to get to him, so on top of the OBVIOUS issues of having children pick their own spots to hide in, there is NO WAY for the teachers to account for all the students and NO WAY for students to know when it is safe to leave. Who approved of this?

Hi teacher here. I have 32 students in my care. I don’t want to “go commando” and hunt down the shooter myself. I have a large group of 9 year olds I’d need to keep safe. Also, I don’t want to kill! The only teachers that want guns in the room are nuts and most teachers don’t want to kill.
On 'you can't regulate evil'. You can regulate how readily available a weapon capable of destruction is available to a person. Like, I can't inherently stop a baby from trying to stick a fork in an outlet, but I can definitely restrict it's access to forks and outlets.
It's kind of insane that near the end of this video I got a pro-gun ad with a guy wearing cap that says "essential" with a drawing of a rifle underneath it.
I know this type of thing isn't always popular but with the well over 7 billion people on earth it just blows my mind that out off all of these mass shooters not a single one was decent enough to take an AR to a Republican governs office where it belongs!
Probably bc republicans dont put gun free zones in their places
For me, a European, this is just insane.
I remember so clearly the news about the uvalde shooting, because it happened before my HS graduation, and then after it ended the news releases the video of the cops doing nothing to stop it- I was furious, here I am supposed to be happy for my graduation but I was upset and mad because the children were dead and even more so when I found out about the police’s involvement. I’m glad that my graduation had a moment of silent for the shooting but just wish there is more gun control all over the states because I have teachers friends cousins who go to these schools and I have to worry about their safety and their lives. But no conservative people use 2A and call it a day
You know gun control wont solve this issue right? Even if all guns were taken away (which will thankfully never happen) you can still make guns out of parts from your locak hardware store

To be fair... The benefit of arming teachers, aside from stopping SRO's from preying on school children, is that teachers are already in the classroom when shootings start, and thus don't have as much of an option to stand around and do nothing. They also might actually want to defend the kids, unlike - clearly - cops.
The downside is that you'll have more accidental deaths when teachers or kids mishandle the classroom gun. And the school shooter can replenish their ammunition from the classrooms...
The school shooting scenario is one where the shooter pretty much has the tactical advantage for most of the duration. I wouldn't consider arming poorly trained teachers to be particularly helpful.
Teachers with guns don't stop shootings. They increase the risk.
@@garethbaus5471 I don't agree we should give teachers guns, but guns aren't really that hard to use; the hardest part of them is loading them; you just point and pull, and if you have one entrance to a room (like most classrooms) than a person can secure an entire room pretty effortlessly even without training
@@bowtieguy8332The hardest part of using them is actually pulling the trigger - most people simply cannot take human life, even when directly threatened. When I was in boot camp, a big part of it was getting us into the psychological space where such a thing would be possible.
This is doubly true if you know the person you're pointing a gun at, as a teacher very well may with a student.
Granted, as I said above, it's possible to desensitise - dare I say dehumanise - someone enough that they can pull the trigger, even on a friend... but that's really not something we should be doing with teachers.

When it comes to arming teachers, comedian Christopher Titus said it best, "If any of me teachers had EVER been armed, there would be no show tonight."

Not to mention they can get steamy and get your papers moist/wet in hot weather
The point about an expectation being placed on teachers to protect the children they're supposed to be teaching (namely, that there should be no such thing) is well made, particularly given that there's a US supreme court ruling that police officers aren't required to protect people in the course of their duties.

However, these weapons were only made by a select few gunsmiths in Denmark, were never widely brought into wide military use due to their complexity and cost, and were only every seriously used by Denmark royal guards (most notably, during the seige of Copenhagen during the Northern Wars). So most of the founding father probably had never even heard of the weapon, let alone saw one

One pundit, after one shooting, suggested that a few “husky boys” could have stopped the shooter by jumping on top of him.

Im someone who's pretty big gun enthusiast just because, well, they're cool to me, but I ABSOLUTELY believe in reasonable gun control
Gun control doesn't just mean banning everyone from ever owning guns, it means enacting laws to limit gun violence and stop so many people from being killed
Something definitely needs to be done about this and here where I live in Florida, you don't need a concealed carry permit to concealed carry, you just go and show your ID and they check that you haven't committed any felonies, and you buy the gun, which is pretty ridiculous and the only thing they have done is raise the age for purchasing and owning a firearm to 21
Exactly!
it’s good to see someone like you. i don’t have too much knowledge on guns, but in movies and games and stuff i find them really cool. thinking abt them being used irl tho immediately makes me sick to my stomach lol
You're not actually limiting the violence or stopping anyone form dying once these things do happen. You're just limiting access to guns in general. Also there's nothing wrong with Florida's current carry and purchase laws. I think it's stupid to require anything further than a clean criminal and mental health record to purchase and carry. Raising the age for purchasing and carrying is as stupid as raising our minimum drinking age. My parents are still pissed about that.

While guns are something that should require proper background checks to make sure you are capable of being responsible enough to own one, Uvalde specifically was worse mainly due to lack of police response, as they stood around, texting and talking as they "waited for the right keys" instead of breaching doors and saving lives.
I needed to pause right in the beginning.

in israel (where i live) to own a gun you must first apply with the defence ministry show you are sane proficient and have a place to keep it away from others. it is a commitment where you get 50 bullets for LIFE (except for those at the range which you must show up every year or so to show you still know how to use it) the ONLY time where you get more than 50 rounds total for a glock is if you were specifically explicitly targeted by someone and they tried to murder you and you shot them in self defence

Although I disagree with a lot of what was said in the video, this is very well made and it did raise some good points. The issue is complex and we all could use some more genuine discourse on both sides.
As for the police of Uvalde and SROs in general, we need to hold them equally accountable as the shooter if no effort is made to stop said shooter. Selfish cops end lives and a good way of stopping that is making sure there is an effort to stop shootings.
Historically in the constitution the 'well regulated militia' meant to be well trained and ready for combat, minute-men essentially. and I think Americans should not forget this part of the 2A. Many people just dismiss part of it depending on whichever argument they want to make but in reality we need to make sure all gun owners are responsible and well trained with their firearms.
The only bit of "gun control" I agree with is locking firearms in a locked container/cabinet when not in use, but I would argue that isn't even gun control. It's just being a responsible gun owner.
And the "mental health crisis" is certainly real, though what most fail to realize it that it is a gun issue, a mental health issue, and a cultural issue all at once. It's not just one or the other! We need to take steps to fix each root cause of the problem. Like all plants the core issue is being propped up and caused by the many roots below/behind the issue. This stuff wouldn't happen if people couldn't just steal a gun from a cabinet, if they were taught to respect everyone, and certainly not if there was a sense of community where these people felt like they belonged.
Just thought I would put my thoughts here. You made a great video, even if I did not agree with some of it! I certainly hope there can be more productive discussion from both sides however unlikely. Though honestly it may be difficult since many republicans and democrats alike dismiss the issues so they can use shootings as a talking point for election.
School shootings are a cultural issue? Elaborate
@@K-Lowemental health was abolished in the 1990s due to states throwing in anyone and everyone (including potential communits) which eventually led to the closure of these facilities on the federal level due to them turning from a peaceful reformatory to your regular prison. Adding onto this a solution was never created. As such these institutions designed to house and treat mentally unwell people instead left them on the streets with no help. This combined with the glorification of mass shootings gets a weeks coverage in the news and obviously results in copycats who will do it for attention. There's also all the music about drugs, shooting up blocks, objectifying women and other factors which degraded culture and eventually formed a lack of self responsibility and the glorification of murder (including on mass) in the modern century. It's the same reason why school shootings didn't happen thirty or even twenty years ago.
Any other questions you have? More than happy to explain.
Conservatives like to forget that not every country with gun control is some "Jorge Orwin 1894 dictatorship where guns are banned entirely, brother!"
Canada has restrictions on high capacity magazines and automatic firearms are banned entirely, requires a legitimate reason to own the firearm (usually hunting or competition shooting, muh self defense doesn't always count), and has strict background checks as well as a lengthy registration process that is annoying enough to dissuade anyone who doesn't actually need it.
I've lived in Canada almost all my life, the number of shootings and attempted shootings in my province I can count on two hands. I could not imagine what it must be like to go to school not knowing if you'll be alive by the time you go home.

The January 6th insurection - and the behavior of Trumpists during the pandemic, have caused me to reconsider my thoughts on gun control.
It's one thing to argue the need for a gun(s) to protect yourself against your run of the mill criminals, or to guard against an invasion of the US by whomever is the bad guys of the day (remember, enemy agents did invade the US during both world wars, albeit with little success). But now it's our neighbors who threaten to cause us harm over, what?, a difference in political ideology? Not wanting to wear a mask or stay 6 feet away from us?
It's September of 2023 as I type this. In less than 10 months we'll know if Trump will face Biden in the 2024 Presidential election. It's an election complicated by at least four indictments against the former president, a potential impeachment charge against the sitting president, and a nation bitterly divided over just about everything. I am scared for our nation's direction. And, unfortunately, all of those children, who have died or will die in their classrooms, will just be lost in the tempest of this political infighting. 😢
7:30 Well, having cops patrol the school does reduce "in-school" violence, but said schools end up focusing more on things like security instead of education. I went to schools like this growing up and they feel more like prisons than a place where a kid goes to grow and learn. Naturally, they don't help prepare kids for making a decent life for themselves in society or managing finances, let alone pursuing higher education, which most kids at these schools think is a lost cause unless they get a free-ride through sports.
The money they invest to have cops patrol the schools, where it's common to see them throw around/handcuff kids in the middle of classes, could be spent improving the state of the neighborhood the school is surrounded by, or improving the lack of decent/up-to-date books and supplies, but they never do that.

When it comes to SROs like rape it’s about power and control. They work at a school because they’re dealing with kids; they have all the power to potentially arrest, charge, and even kill without any real retaliation. However, once a school shooter comes into the picture that shooter suddenly has equal or more power than the SRO due to usually having a more lethal weapon(s) and are no longer under the control of society and law (not by any governing body other than themselves). This is a threat to the SRO so they general leave and don’t do anything. This is also inversely a way to make shooting deadlier due to the idea that SROs will stop the shooter; you’re typical school shooter has a deathwish they won’t back down out of fear they’ll just come more prepared. Also just saying people who want to shoot up a school are mentally ill because who would want to do that at least genuinely however are they under the literal definition of mentally ill? No but, maybe that should change.
at 4:47 theoretically we CAN blame mass shootings on the mentally ill as the mass shooters usually have undiagnosed mental problems caused by the environment they grow up in however to say gun control isn't what is needed is shifting the problem as many families can't afford a psychiatrist or other means of diagnosis or treatment or actively avoid it because they abuse their child
you can't blame the undiagnosed however we need this stuff to be more accessible and restrict gun ownership , however gun restriction is an easy and effective solution
