Safety Third is a weekly show hosted by William Osman, NileRed, The Backyard Scientist, Allen Pan and a couple other RUclips "Scientists". Sometimes we have guests, sometimes it's just us, but always: safety is our number three priority.
Whats crazy is "Ignorance of the law is no excuse for breaking it" but when you ask for clarification they just repeat back to you the shit you didn't understand in the first place.
They don't want that one Uno reversed 😅
some people think that its because they dont want to be liable that the government said "no thats legal the government said it was okay for me to do" and the case be thrown out if it ever went to court. so they reserve the right to arrest you later when they decide its illegal. they will never tell you "no you cant do this"
@@frostedlambs Another guess would also be because if they set specific limits then all the obvious greyareas around it would be abused. Since if people know specifically what is illegal and what technically isn't illegal if they set specific terms for it and not vague ones.
"ignorance of the law is no excuse for breaking it" unless you're a cop who gets qualified immunity because "how are we to expect a cop to remember every single law on the book as long as they thought they were acting in the right then it doesn't count"
@@jimjam4082 why you don't talk to cops, there are piles of ffed laws 😅 nothing good comes from it
"why do you think we're here"
"is it because of the exploding bullet video?"
"the WHAT video?"
exploding bullets are actually fairly normal and a thing since the 1930s as ammunition develkoped for aircraft to spot if you hit the enemy, these then where further used by german and soviet snipers and also as "ranging ammunition" for recoiless guns and tanks, to figure out the range to a target.
@@IronPhysik basically incendiary rounds right
@@hy7968 no, they are actually explosive
Incendiary are set up differently

"Why do you think we're here today?"
"You want to play some 1v1 Basketball and need an honest referee."
Or "Your lost."
"Because you're looking for someone difficult and that's the first line in my file in JPAS?"
"Hydrogen sulfide is illegal now? So, a critically important antioxidant and cellular signaling molecule that's ubiquitous in nature is illegal? How about nitric oxide, is that illegal too?" Answer yes or probably, "Well, we'll not need to worry about the hydrogen sulfide idiocy, as you'll be up to your eyeballs in a very, very, very one way civil war, as you've outlawed Viagra's method of operation, as well as the ability for your heart to beat properly and for every male to get wood."
All true, well, maybe not with the Joint Personnel Adjudication System, it holds basic crap like security clearance and gonadal contents or something. The rest is entirely true and only scratches the surface.
Long and short, it'd end with "Get a court order, then we'll talk, now go off and kick a rock before I make my own federal call and end your careers".
They'd have no real recourse, as dragging me off then creates that very problem for them with a false arrest and civil rights violations. The worst that they could do is relay to the Australians that I'm not cooperating and I get a call from them and I give a basic chemistry class to the idiot, who will likely share the misery to the ones griping in the first place. Off of the top of my head, I can think of a half dozen ways hydrogen sulfide can be made and how to prevent it or at least mitigate it and that's all high school chemistry level stuff. I've been outgassing hydrogen sulfide all day long, had a few hard boiled eggs after not having eggs for a while. That'd better even out soon, as I want to enjoy that egg and potato salad I made the other day!
Oh, who am I fooling? I'll just find another reason to fart. I am after all, tagged REF.

srsly...All I know so far is they came for some basic ass gas
I'll take a shot in the dark:
FBI said take this video down and he said okay
@@ufffd Yes, and they probably made up some bullshit about it being illegal in some fashion because the FBI lacks the competence to get its job right. The only terrorists they ever manage to catch are the ones that they create by handing over the plans and the contacts to use in furtherance of the planned "terrorist act."
I'm glad I'm not the only one annoyed by this. I can't imagine listening to a whole podcast of this.
A bunch of people trying to one-up one another.
Yes, too much over talking, take turns please. That's why I don't care for dual talk show hosts.
Would've been nice to let him talk and tell the story without being interrupted every 5 seconds
Bro that was driving me fucking crazy😂
Thank youuuuuuu
Why let someone talk when you can interrupt to try and be funny and impress people? 🙃
It's called latency , they probably have high ping since they're on different places on the earth
Edit: Probably Nile spoke when there was silence for him while TBS was talking and not hearing Nile in the exact second and the confusion kicked in so yeah
@@shiranui8990 they knew of the delay, they just wanted to interrupt him.

I feel like that's a goal for these RUclips science channels, is just without knowing, you're going to accidentally make a video that the authorities or even government want you to "kindly" take it down.
Can confirm.
@@BackYardScience2000 , unless they hand you a court order you don't have to take down anything. It's called a first amendment right. Know your RIGHTS!
I've not seen one yet that had stuff that was not found in any HS or intro level college textbook. The issue is more of permits and legality of the person actually making stuff. Producing a deadly gas requires permits, even if it's for educational purposes.
@@wmgilliland2582 they're not telling you to take it down because you have to, they are telling you to take it down for the safety of others, so if for some reason someone sees the content and acts on the content, you're not held responsible.
Or you commit a felony and are never allowed to make a video again like what happened with Grant Thompson in the king of random. He never returned to youtube because of exploding dry ice. suprises me youtube still allows these types of channels to be honest.
Having worked in the oilfield H2S was super sketchy, we always had sensors we carried around location all the time and when driving around you could smell the rotten egg smell everywhere. Needless to say we were worried more about methed out hands on the rig killing somebody by not paying attention than H2S.
Weird sidenote: If you ever go through H2S training you'll hear the story of my second cousin... He was the paramedic that drove into the H2S cloud trying to get to the guys who were already down... He's the reason they specifically give for not trying to help somebody that goes down in a suspected H2S situation... Run upwind Gentlemen!
I've been through the training multiple times and just found that out.
If that's true then that's pretty cool. I think it would be so hard to accept that those people are dead and just do nothing but it really is the best thing to do until things are under control in those situations. There are a lot of stories like this with chemical releases, be it that they were trying to save people or that they just didn't know about them. Scary stuff if you work in those kinds of environments.
Is that why they call it H1Z?
Did he die?
I'm sorry for the loss of your cousin. My grandfather's passing is in a medical book as an example of what can go wrong in a botched dental treatment. It sucks, but we know their deaths are not in vain as the lives of others will be spared.
I worked in a plant years ago and was assigned to do some busy work near the H2S unit. As that was the closest area with a place to get water and sit down to eat, that's where my co-worker and I went to have lunch. Ever H2S unit I've ever been near, has leaked horribly and this one was no different. As we were eating, I asked my co-worker if he smelled anything and he said no, so we hauled ass out of there. We had got to the point where we couldn't smell it anymore and you don't have long after that before you pass out and eventually die. A couple of years later I saw in the news that two people died at that same plant and H2S unit. They started requiring anyone in the plant to wear gas meters. H2S is no joke. It'll end you quick.
You NEVER answer the question, "Why do you think we're here?"
You DO say, "Show me your I.D. properly so I know you are who you say you are."
You DO say, "Why are you here?"
You DO NOT say, "Come in."
You DO take measures to protect yourself from wrongful prosecution, such as recording the conversation, getting a witness to observe and seeking legal advice.
As a Brit, this attitude is very alien to me. Our cops are much more heavily monitored than the US.
@@archlorddestin lol our cops are much more independent and much more heavily armed.
@@archlorddestin really, I'd like to say something adviceful or how is police doing at my place, but I'm from Russia lol. Here cops just take you out. Our gov even thinks about giving police the right to enter your house without proper order (in a few special cases, but hey).
the bigger problem here is it's Fed's, and they can get away with SOOOO much more than state authorities
@@sh5w1kr Police already have that right in certain circumstances in the United States, like if someone calls in that you have a hostage a SWAT team will break in unannounced. People even made a prank genre with it called swatting
"Yeah, the FBI came to my house because I told people how to make this dangerous gas."
"Oh, that gas that you make by doing this and this?"
"Yeah and then you do that and mix it with that."
"Oof man."
Knowledge is not illegal. Spread it around so everyone knows.
@@samhouston1288 That is true and a good point, but I was only making a joke.
@@samhouston1288 not illegal but if for example you spread knowledge about making bombs and weapons the government will definitely take notice of it and will have questions for you.
@@Glider5858 Which is why you don't talk to them, at least not without a lawyer present. If you are not breaking the law, they have no reason to contact you. They only get away with crap like this because people let them.
@@samhouston1288 yep, they are preying of people's ignorance and good will.
An interviewing standard your team needs to learn and become familiar with:
When you ask a person to tell a story, actually let the person tell the story.
Stop interrupting your guest so much. It's counterproductive to the interviewee and your audience.
yeah it was very irritating

I love all these guys, but Jesus Christ, let the man tell his story. Yes, you’re all funny guys, we get it, let someone else have the spotlight for a minute.
These guys? Funny? I pray that was sarcasm.
Oh fuck yes, FINALLY. I just said the same thing, just ran into this podcast from this video for the first, and yet, the LAST time. I love NileRed and The BYS videos, but this podcast was sooooo bad. Everyone talking over everyone, literally everyone trying to answer the same question all at the same time even when it didn’t pertain to them or was asked to them, and then didn’t even get around to answering the real question. This just, well SUCKED. Bad. I’m sorry, but this does. 🤦♂️
I was feeling that the whole time
@The Lonely Proto you
Ikr the laughing and reactions sound like a sonic boom
If you ask a guy to tell a story, don't constantly talk over him. Would have been way better if he just could have told the story with occasional laughs instead of having to compete with other people adding 'content'.
Yeah it did feel like they were messing up the flow of the story pretty bad. But it's all good, they were just excited
The delay in the call doesn't help.
Most peoples brains work at high enough capacity to be able to understand a story even when other people interrupt.
say it with me:
Pod * Cast
Yeah that shit was annoying. Audio delay and it being a podcast are no excuse. So podcasts are supposed to be full of people talking over each other, with no one person able to convey a congruent thought or story? I think not.
That was frustrating. Dude has an fbi story and nobody can stay on topic
Nile kept talking over him. It was infuriating! I couldn't even piece together the story.

Always annoys me when your trying to tell a story and everyone else wants to be apart of the convo so badly they have to react to every little thing
its a bunch of science nerds, they are perpetually socially anxious and awkward, give them a break

@@rodolforodriguez-muro2899 thats actually not true because i used to be like you. eventually when it gets over the top it will annoy you but you will try to express your frustration by passive aggression, and that sucks when a group of friends do the passive aggresive thing to each other
@@rodolforodriguez-muro2899
No. When you ask someone to tell their story about something, you don't then go about answering questions for them and interjecting their story. That's just rude.

H2S is the reason I have permanent brain damage.
I worked in the oilfield as safety and maintenance, I cleaned and repaired pilot valves and inspected relays for pumpjacks, and one location was built compact because the person who owned the land at the time didn't want us to take up too much space, so things were built in a way that made it dangerous. Right next to one of the pilot valves was a vent point that released gas right into my face, and the exposure lead to cognitive and motor skill degradation and memory problems. I'm fine for the most part, though I tend to forget things and fail to properly grab things or use my hands normally sometimes. That could also be from nerve damage from being electrocuted too, but idk.
WHAT?
Look at the bright side, even with brain damage you still write better than a lot of people
I used to work in refineries as a ironworker, building, welding, all sorts of things , etc.And yes we had to shave , no facial hair, so the emergency oxygen equiptment would seal if the warning siren went off., slam your mask on turn on the O2, and run for the gate Part of the refining process makes lots of of H2s. some of which is burned off by flame stacks, which have a a safty perimeter fence around them.. And its a fact sometimes birds would sometimes fly by, over the fenced area, and drop dead out of the air., just that fast.., one whiff and you are a stiff.... This was in the 80s, but I dont think its changed much.....
For the last 20 years sulfur compounds are an air pollutant (a leading cause of acidic rain) and must be scrubbed.
damn i saw a documentary about some chemical waste, i think it was DuPont's teflon manufacturing, where birds would drop dead right on top of the factory roof just as you described
@@Quinu12 As a pilot we have somewhat similar mask requirements. (one step less extreme.) In case of a sudden decompression at 40,000 feet we need to get a mask on one handed in under 5 seconds, we only have an estimated 15 seconds of useful consciousness. (emergency decent to a safe breathing altitude then takes 5-10 minutes.)
In planes that don't have the single-handed quick masks at least one pilot must be wearing a mask any time above a certain altitude, and at medium altitudes anytime the second pilot gets up the pilot flying must have a mask on. (The rules get too complex to generalize for all operations, they depend on type of masks, altitudes, number of pilots, airplane equipment, etc)
@@mytech6779 Yes, the H2S is treated and recovered, by the refinery somehow. I was working at a different part of the refinery, and of course there are giant pipes above and below ground.I was doing some ironwork/ electrical stick welding at a H2S recovery point, welding, surrounded by a few firewatch men with waterhoses running. Why? we were surrounded by huge mounds of white powdery stuff. huge amounts. What was it ?............. Elemental sulfur, the same stuff matches are made of.. Now, when doing overhead stick welding it is normal to be constantly showered with molten steel and slag, at 2200 degrees, and of course you wear leathers covering your arms, shoulders, welder gauntlets, welding hood. and most of your body is covered by heavy cotton bib overalls, canvas and cotton, with leather boots. welding overhead , in a shower of molten steel I heard a fireman scream " FIRE", so I stop and raised my hood. Surprise. The front bib of my overalls were on fire, , I just didnt feel it yet. Solution ???? I spit on it, beat on it with my gloved hands , for a minute or so, put the fire out and didnt even stop, just went back to welding in a shower of molten steel. The firemen were always very carefull to keep the mounds of sulfur well watered. and that was excellent.. I am retired now.... Love your show.............
They remove the H2S from the oil typically with amine units. From there they burn the H2S and O2 to make SO2, then they burn H2S and SO2 together to make elemental sulfur.
Yeah, hydrogen sulfide is a really big deal. I had to go around a Wastewater facility with a hydrogen sulfide detector and when I detected some I had to report it to prevent levels from getting high enough to cause serious problems. It was a major part of a drinking water and wastewater course I took as well.
That said, I don't really understand what the legal basis the FBI would have for making you take the video down. I'm not aware of any laws that say you can't show someone how it's produced, because on the contrary I had to watch videos on how it's produced so that I could learn how to avoid the situations that would lead to my death. Asking seems reasonable, but telling doesn't.
When I was doing EMT-B training we were told how mixing brake fluid and powder chlorine or tabs creates fire and chlorine gas. A couple years later I was fired for mixing them to test a Cl2 detector. The knowledge is not illegal however doing it or showing others how to do something sketchy is frowned upon
The fbi can do whatever they want and threaten anybody because every single person is unknowingly in violation of some obscure laws and the FBI will throw the book at you given the chance.
There is such a thing as Restricted information. Restricted information is something which doesn't really present a threat if it leaks but you probably don't want it to be easily found. For example, the recipes for chemical explosives is restricted, but any government doc that contains your taxpayer info is also considered Restricted. You usually don't need a clearance or anything to handle restricted information, you can only really get in trouble if you give it people who don't have a reason to have it. So, teaching employees that work in an industry that involves hydrogen sulfide is fine, but posting a public video on RUclips about it isn't (since you can't verify why your users are watching it).
I doubt they had a legal basis and I doubt they cared. Law enforcement is like anyone else, lazy to a fault. If they think they can accomplish something through basic intimidation without having to do the work, they will. Plenty of social media posts, videos, etc have been taken down in response to an unhappy person just by a suit standing threatening before someone.
Same for search and seizure; it's difficult and time consuming to get a search warrant for a specific thing at a specific place and a specific time, but if they throw a little intimidation your way and ask for compliance so they'll to easy on you, they can get your ok to search wherever and take whatever they want.
Because the FBI is essentially the Stasi/NKVD of the US.
Imagine how frustrating it would be to be asked a question and have someone else cut you off and answer it instead.
he didn't say "Kevin, have you ever..." he asked it generally, if I were nilered I probably would have thought will was asking everyone
@@RavenLovesArt exactly the whole point is its a discussion between all of them
If you watch the podcast Nile is talking and then William asks the question. If anything, the question was for the entire group not just TBS
@@redcreed_ dude doesnt matter if u asked the whole group. if u have one person talking something serious let him talk instead of interrupting every 10 seconds. and advanced clearly asked tbs directly.
@@theogthugcat I agree that they're shitty for constanlty interupting, that's not what I was arguing against. I was just saying that Nile wasn't in the wrong for answering first.
In the UK, we add Methyl Mercaptan (known in the trade as 'stench') to our natural gas. About 20 years ago, a couple of litres of concentrated stench was accidentally spilt at Ipswich docks. For several weeks, it could be smelled from 20+ miles away.
Same here in the US, these guys didn't know that!
Never ever talk with the "glow in the dark". Everything you say is incriminatory, they can literally ask you anything (what time it is? what type of coffee did you just bought on that coffee shop?...) without even identifying themselves and if you give the wrong answer... well you just lied to a FED. Probably you wont be in real trouble (jail time) but they will use this to pressure you and pile accusations. Remember, a lot of times "the process is the punishment".
this should apply to all law enforcement. even regular cops. just don't talk.
@@isaackvasager9957 True, the "thin blue line" isn't on your side, if they have orders from above to shoot your whole family and put the bodies on a ditch they will do it in no time.

@@jasperrrr Yup, Nilered!

This is one of the major reasons I hate shitty podcasts.
Podcasts can be good if they are given the same attention normal videos are given. But just like let's plays it's an extremely easy way to make long content. But that's the problem, content creators treat them like they don't need to do research, edit, or stick to the topic.
These kinds of podcasts feel like you are part of the video chat but are being completely ignored.
after overlooking the video, i don’t think they were talking over him intentionally - i think he had a very high ping, meaning he couldn’t respond to the comments made before continuing
Oh my God, they interrupted him a million times - LET THE MAN TALK. I'd love to know more about this story, did he actually remove the video? Or did he relist it under a different title? Blah... Terrible interruptions!

"I asked the ATF if it was legal"

@@bensmith4563 naturally. If they fail a raid they probably shoot the first dog they see on the way back to the office.
Well if they replied and said no, then he wouldn't have done it. Crisis averted
The FBI didn't care about that, and the ATF should most definitely tell you something is illegal if they actually care about you doing it. Unless you're committing war crimes they will tell you it's a bad idea before contacting the FBI as well. They're pretty bad but I don't think they're going to trick you into breaking the law and then call the FBI
The few letters they actually return and decide to care about can give useful legal insight though and it is sometimes worth asking them about their policy, since they tend to make up rules arbitrarily
@@puppieslovies you're right, I was mostly joking. However, when they have the power to make arbitrary "laws", it's better to do research without notifying them. If you ask them if X is illegal, they could turn around and say, "hadn't thought of that, but thanks; X is super illegal" even if there is no legislation banning X. Plus when they are constantly trying to prove why the department even needs to exist, they have an incentive to increase their political clout with public crackdowns on otherwise legal activities.
"You wanna hear that story?"
> "yeah!"
> proceed to continuously interrupt the story.
Really annoying! He didn't get any further than "so these guys knocked on my door, flashed me their badge and started a conversation about one of my videos", I feel like there was more to tell but he didn't get the chance.

Funny thing is if it does not quite say its illegal then don't ask the cops or the ATF they then and there would decide if what you are doing is illegal
@@JohnnyYeTaecanUktena ATF: Those shoestrings look like a machine gun to us.
@@MonkeyJedi99
Me an intellectual: Not today fedbois according to Georgia's definition of Machinegun this is not designed to fire more than 6 shots out of this 6 shot revolver as you know " "Machine gun" means any weapon which shoots or is designed to shoot, automatically, more than six shots, without manual reloading, by a single function of the trigger"
ATF: What the-
Also ATF: Fire the person in charge of Georgia and change the definition to also include revolvers quickly there are dogs to shoot
Also fun fact that is still the definition for Georgia as of this comment and it used to be more than 5 shots however. Which both definitions are unusual code for machineguns in the US so this is the state with the most lax definition and Texas says "September 1, 2019. (9) "Machine gun" means any firearm that is capable of shooting more than two shots automatically, without manual reloading, by a single function of the trigger."
Like i find it really weird that Georgia has more freedom than the gun loving Texas. And the thing i hate most is them saying weapons with a burst mode is a machinegun when that is not fucking true as if you ask me they should go with a literal definition stating that "a machine gun is a firearm that is capable of firing every round in the magazine with a single function of the trigger with a exception of firearms that can only fire a single shot"
I want guns with burst features to be common without having to have a binary trigger that fires on pull and release
@@JohnnyYeTaecanUktena I agree with your sentiments.
However, the ATF can just roll in with their self-written 'regulations' (not laws, nobody voted on many of them) and tell Georgia "We don't care what you say, we have our own rules."
@@MonkeyJedi99 don't forget they would set up a fake mass shooting just to try and sell their point as usual just like what happened with bump stocks. Also the only reason why i did not get a License to manufacture a FFL and a License to start a business is because a idiot would ruin my business by taking it out of the state of Georgia where it would be an illegal machinegun even if i just made guns with 3 round bursts instead of just keeping it in Georgia. Let's not forget that once the ATF actually start to notice that people are making guns with burst features in Georgia they are actually going to change the Machinegun definition
Most of the judges here in Georgia are actually based so the ATF would have to change the definition of Machine gun in order to actually get something to stick. Also before you say i don't own a dog so sad ATF noises lol
"Why do you think we're here today?" that's the equivalent of "Do you know how fast your were going?"
I was waiting for the part explaining how the feds "made" the videos be deleted. it sure would be nice to hear some insights on how this went down so that other publishers can better defend themselves. so the usual advice of "don't open the door, don't talk to them" didn't happen here. I'm still really curious as to what did happen to the end.

Don't answer the door to any law enforcement unless they tell you they have a warrant.
If they have a warrant, tell them you are exercising your fifth amendment right to remain silent. If it's a search warrant, call a criminal defense attorney and explain the situation. If it's an arrest warrant, go quietly and peacefully and tell them you can't speak until an attorney is present. Tell them literally nothing else.

Some years back there were some kids in Japan (several instances) who were committing group suicides with hydrogen sulfide. Later some kids in the SF Bay Area picked up the idea and used it (more than one case). Then one of the basic ingredients (which I long used for a dormant spray on fruit trees) was taken off the shelves; now sales and purchases require special licenses, just like some other dangerous agricultural chemicals. As for the hydrogen sulfide in petroleum, that is common; in a county south of here that produces a lot of oil, you can see mountains of sulphur removed from it. The chemical used to odorize gas nowadays is methyl mercaptan; when I was young (a long time ago) another very stinky gas was widely used, but about 10% of people (including me) were genetically incapable of smelling it.

Actual content: 4 guys talking over each other with an abbreviated partial story of a visit by (Maybe the FBI) with no explanation as to how/why he had to take his video down or the rationale behind it... seems legit.
The video indicates that this was a case where the FBI were acting for people's safety, though I'm not 100% on that.
I can understand why he'd want to comply, but he also didn't really have a legal obligation unless they showed up with a warrant to enter the house, as well as another specifically indicating they would need access to the computer or youtube account to delete the video.
Meanwhile, the FBI could have simply told RUclips to take the video down, so none of that makes sense to me.
Could also just be the "friendly visit and verbal warning" routine, nobody wants to be liable for someone else's actions if it was brought up in court. (Though other comments have indicated that this is public information on various websites)

Interesting, in the 80s a hot sulfur truck apparently pulled over to deal with a leak, and left a few pounds of solidified sulfur on the ground, which my friend discovered and I rode my bike several miles to stuff my newspaper bags with some. We made "stink bombs" of aluminum sulfate which would react with water to make hydrogen sulfide, in quantities sufficient to stink but not be dangerous. We made pipe "cups" that we filled with sulfur, then used an arc welder and aluminum rod. Crude but effective, and weeks later one of these was checked and found to still slowly produce bubbles of H2S when supplied with more water. It was amazing how far downwind we could still smell what was probably diluted to parts per billion.
ETA: Gas is odorized with ethyl mercaptan, not H2S. This is a chemical cousin to butyl mercaptan AKA skunk odor.

*_NEVER_* ask the ATF if something is legal. If they say no, then that is a legal precedent that would put anyone who did it in prison. If you don't ask them, you can basically do whatever you want until they find out and say no.
Eeh, kind of. True "Legal" president is only created by court decisions. The ATF could be wrong (and often are) about the actual law, what they say as an interpretation of the law, and that's why they would quote only the text of the law, so no interpretation is involved.
@@PakRoc-dev Not exactly. Courts generally defer to reasonable interpretation made by Regulatory agencies, including the ATF if they are openly published.
The backyard scientist though was essentially asking for legal advice, which the ATF can't actually give, as most of them aren't lawyers, and even if they are, are not your lawyer.
Your best chance of getting something useful is to ask to any published guidelines or supplements related to the regulatory text in question.
@@WorBlux The thing is that would require the ATF to back up their determination to the court, and it can still be invalidated by any court up to the supreme court.
The real problem is that the laws they're making determinations on are complete garbage. They have to interpret shit made by morons 90 years ago with no foresight or weapon knowledge and only worse as politicians continue to try to weasel around the 2nd amendment.
@@WorBlux The ATF definitely has lawyers, and those lawyers write guidance. That guidance is "authoritative" literature, but not "precedent." All guidance would have extensive references to the actual text of the law and prior court decisions, but it does not have the same authority as the law it's based on.
However, in practice, you are right. The ATF are basically a specialized federal police force, but they need prosecutors to bring charges. Those prosecutors are heavily aligned with the ATF making the same legal arguments as the ATF's guidance, and average people can't afford a lawyer good enough to convince a judge that the ATF's interpretation of the law is wrong.
@@PakRoc-dev "All guidance would have extensive references to the actual text of the law and prior court decisions,"
The interpretation must be reasonable and defensible. But this still gives a lot of leeway/advantage to the regulatory agency.
You can't show that your interpretation of the statute is in line with the text and precedent, but also must prove that the regulators interpretation is not reasonable and defensible. It's a subtle but pernicious shifting of the burden of proof. They don't have to prove you violated the statue to the degree required, only that you violated their interpretation of the law to the degree required.

100% accurate that this is a big thing in oil and gas. There are inorganic sources, but typically it’s caused by sulfate reducing bacteria. Not only is it very deadly, but it is also denser than air which allows it to accumulate in tanks and ditches, it likes to absorb into things, it can cause steel to become brittle and crack, and it can get adsorbed into clothing and then off gas.
On locations with it, for example much of Hugoton field in Kansas (fun fact: also where most Helium comes from, which is a product of decay of naturally occurring radioactive minerals), people have to wear special sensors and even self contained breathing apparatus. There are stories of people taking off their protective clothing after a job and leaving it in the truck cab, then dieing from exposure to the H2S that comes off their clothes. Extreme case, but still not to be trifled with.
Every standard 6 student learns how to make H2S gas in science class and this is 2 years before you actually learn any serious chemistry.
I’m so familiar with the stench of low concentration H2S from cleaning silver with baking soda and aluminum that I never understood how anyone could be exposed to a high enough concentration to kill since the smell is so unpleasant and obvious. I didn’t know it numbed the nose!
By the way, the odorant in natural gas is ethyl mercaptan, another sulfur compound with an odor that’s detectable in minuscule amounts.
People die from it because in sufficient amounts H2S numbs olfactory nerves and people exposed to it think it has gone away, because they do NOT smell it anymore.

You guys need to practice letting each other finish up sentences and thoughts before interrupting. This was a bit painful.
H2s can blow your sense of smell out instantly. That stuff is terrifying. If it's in high enough concentrations to kill you quickly it no longer smells like anything.

Hydrogen Sulfide is f**king terrifying. I used to be a shipboard engineer. We called it the two breath death. H2S is a natural waste decomposition byproduct that can quickly accumulate in a ships lower compartments in lethal concentrations. We would get sensor trips in our blackwater pump rooms every couple of weeks at sea. I about flew up the ladder when the alarm tripped and I was in the below space. It's amazing how fast you can climb five stories vertically with your breath held when you have that hard of an adrenaline spike.
As someone who worked in the oil fields. H2S was one of the biggest hazards as far as likelihood of dying almost instantaneously. People checking tanks, confined spaces. Etc. we were told one lungful of H2S will kill you. We were instructed to run in a certain direction depending on the wind direction and TO NOT ATTEMPT TO SAVE ANYONE. If someone droops suddenly we were instructed to get as far away as possible because more than likely if someone drops next to you, the concentration is super high and you’ll die as well trying to save them.

IIRC another interesting thing about H2S is it suppresses our thermoregulation in non-deadly amounts, so it was being looked at as a way to help induce hypothermia for surgery and maybe cryo-sleep in space. Hopefully I have the right gas.
Do people no longer learn to make H2S in high school chemistry lab?
@@goodmaro ? Haven't you heard? public school is just for indoctrinating kids and making them into activists now.

@@eac-ox2ly he's not even that wrong tho. We barely were aloud to do like anything.
@@HerbaMachina Yeah, I can't even remember a single chemistry class in high school for which we made new compounds, and I only had a handful of those classes at most, (all the rest were literally just memory challenge quizzes or maybe a math problem) and no one ever used the fume hood or did anything that could've warranted use of the eyewash station. We neither had anything to protect us from splashing or from getting stuff in our eyes when we were in the lab. (which again not like it mattered because we never did anything that warranted it, and that section of the school wasn't even 20 years old yet) I can count on at most both hands all the times we stepped in there in 4 years and at least 2 of those times we were writing up a report without doing any chemistry demonstrations.
FBI: “why do you think we’re here?”
I’m guessing the bodies?
FBI: “The what?”
Nothing……
