Saying guns is part of the colonization culture doesn't explain why guns have special status in America. The British colonized ALL of North America with gun, but some how USA citizens recognize gun ownership as a right while Canada recognizes gun ownership as a privilege.

I’m not even conservative, either. I just don’t understand some people’s thought processes. If you don’t trust the government, it doesn’t make sense to want to give them more power.

Guns are a huge part of american culture. Like they are integral to the national character. Firearm possession is literally enshrined in their founding documents, their nation was built on rebellion and revolution, which would not have been possible without guns. So asking them to give up guns is like asking them to give up everything that makes them American. In Europe, firearms arent a significant part of their culture. Barely a part of it at all. Thats why its so difficult for non-Americans to understand the fascination. Thats my interpretation as a British person anyway. Its the fundamental aspect of their identity, the American way of life, maybe the most important part.

In Mexico Article 10 of the constitution allows any civilian to own firearms that are deemed "acceptable" by the government (Hint, none of them are), but even with that restriction already in place, more draconian laws were implemented in 1972, 4 years after the government had massacred students in Tlatelolco for the crime of assembling (They weren't even protesting at the time). No one spoke against gun control and now we live in a country where organized crime is free to kidnap and rape our families while corrupt military and police institutions look away and also engage in crimes against their own citizenship. If you give away your gun rights you are condemning your people to live in a dystopian anarcho tyranny.

As a Georgian, many people here have a similar attitude towards gun ownership. Even though we have pretty strict (and frankly, foolish) concealed carry laws, many civilians still have guns, often more than one. Gun ownership, as well as the right to bear arms of any sort, have a history that dates back centuries here. Ironically enough, the only time in its history when Georgians were made to give up their arms was in 1917 (we all know how that fairytale went lol). Even that happened after a brief war against the Red Army. There's a street named after the young Junkers who fought the Russians in the capital Tbilisi. Nowadays, the legality of gun ownership has become a much more politicizes issue, even in Georgia, with most opposition parties trying to revert the current government's gun laws and allow concealed carry after passing a psych evaluation. If it does materialize, Georgia will be the first post-Soviet country to legalize cannabis AND civilian gun ownership. Funny how things can change in a realtively short period of time

I mean, we do have a violence issue, but yeah, anytime I hear someone say "gun violence," I stop caring about what they have to say, because it's such a blatant manipulation of data. Knife attacks are just as horrific as gun attacks. Dying is dying. I think the other problem is how many people don't realize just how dangerous knives are. And the section of this video where Horses talks about how you had to think about it, and there was a barrier of entry to violence is so dumb. Many of the worst atrocities in history predate guns. People have willingly and gleefully murdered with knives, axes, clubs, etc for all of human history. The difference was that a handful of psychopaths who were strong enough could keep getting away with it, and everyone else had to live at their mercy. Guns simply allowed the less strong to have the ability to kill as well. Now, any psycho can kill, but additionally, any normal person can protect themselves. But yeah, another note regarding your thought on "gun violence" stats is well founded, because it also includes self defense cases, self inflicted deaths (which alone account for two thirds of gun deaths), and police shootings. It's disingenuous to say the least.

True, everyone who makes anti-gun arguments, i have noticed at least, are not real outdoors people who LIVE there. They might visit or go hiking or something, btu they've never had to build their own cabin or hunt for their food or survey their own land. If they were, they'd know how important a firearm can be for your survival in these situations. City people think that they're so protected from these scenarios, but society is very delicate, and someone might not always be there to sell you food, you might have to grow or obtain it yourself 1 day.

The term "Well-regulated" in the 2nd amendment means "sighted-in and regularly trained" not "regulated" in the modern sense of being controlled by the government. Old shooting manuals will talk about the "regulation of the sights" which means getting the sights zeroed in. Now, in old England, it was standard to require every Englishman to regularly practice with the long bow, as it was crucial in times of war to have plenty of well-trained archers. In the US, while no lesser a personage than Ben Franklin Himself said that training in the bow might be best, it was generally recognized (and more and more so as gun technology advanced) that it was a good thing to have plenty of trained shooters on tap in case of war. So when the US became a country, the founders made it very clear that everyone (may not apply if female or POC) who wants one may have a gun because this way there would be lots of trained shooters. I personally may or may not agree with this, but this is how we got here.

This is exactly right. It was originally the intention of the founding fathers that the US exist with a militia alone and no standing army. For the miniscule federal budget of the time a militia was much cheaper, and they feared the possibility of a military takeover. They eventually realized that a standing army was necessary to secure American interests.

By leaving those doctrines in place, we allowed for half of the country to attempt to secede from the country all because they disagreed with a policy.

The first battle of the Revolutionary War was about gun confiscation. Colonists had been talking about revolution for many years. It wasn't until the British rode to Concord, MA to take our cannons that we met them in Lexington and stopped them. That was OUR military (we were British colonists) trying to take our guns. The Battle of Lexington and Concord was April 19, 1775. 2A was supposed to guarantee that no government, foreign or domestic, can never point a bigger gun at us than we can point back, if we can afford it.

Gun ownership in America exists to protect the individual from overbearing illegitimate power structures. People advocating for civilian disarmament are either incapable of recognizing that fact or themselves benefit from those illegitimate power structures. Furthermore attempting to minimize the utility of common privately owned firearms by comparing them to weaponry owned and operated by power structures only serves to portray those power structures as illegitimate, therefore reinforcing the initial purpose of firearms ownership. I do agree that gun violence should be curbed, but through education, not subjugation. I'd love to live in a world without the need for weapons, but we are not there yet and won't be for a long time.
@ColeTrainStudio
@ColeTrainStudio 2 месяца назад
The issue with education is that it doesn't always produce the intended effect. Yes, it helps with gun accidents, especially for the young. In situations where death is a likely result, education is a must, but cannot be the only answer. Like many things, the best way to produce results is to implement a something that forces people to do things a certain way. In this case, stricter gun laws, delayed buying processes, no untracked private sales, no stand your ground laws, no concealed or open carry, marketing warnings (think cigarettes), required licensing of all owned firearms and ammunition with regular check-ins by government officials, police not able to carry firearms on their person (have weapons locked in safes in squad cars), etc. Some would say that that sounds like a bureaucratic nightmare; that's entirely the point. Making it an inconvenience to purchase, own, and operate any firearm will naturally curb unneeded ownership and in-the-moment decisions (i.e. suicides, crimes of passion). If you're a hunter, you could easily make this process something you have to undertake to get your hunting license each year. If you're a sport shooter, there could easily be ways to avoid part or most of the bureaucracy by storing firearm and ammo at your shooting club. Farmers could have an audit period after harvest time. For a succinct illustration: lowering the speed limit on a road doesn't actually make people slow down. Enforcing the speed limit with automatic cameras or by implementing road infrastructure that forces slower driving, like narrower lanes or chicanes, does make people slow down.

14:19 You forget to mention that, for just as many slavers, an equal amount of abolitionists and slaves took up arms against the institution, much of it in Bleeding Kansas. If individuals didn't own firearms, you'd still see hired or government armed guards at plantations, just like any other slave nation in history. At the time, there were many states that banned freedmen from possessing firearms, in fear that they'd foment a slave revolt, like John Brown almost achieved. Earlier in the video, you also forgot to mention that the first gun law in history was that of punishing any colonist who knowingly provided muskets, powder, or musketballs to Native Americans. This is because, if Europeans were "proficient" at firearm usage, Natives were "advanced". Often they had better equipment, training, and tactics than European militia. Within a generation, the primary tool for resisting colonialism was the musket, and the tool the colonizers used to stop this was gun control. Ultimately, any gun control is based around and achieves one vision. "Rich, mostly white, pro-government, pro-capitalist men as the only ones who can be trusted to enact violence." Guns will always be used to settle disputes; Government is nothing but the threat of violence written down on fancy paper. The only question is, who gets a seat at that negotiating table?

Except that the presence of guns is itself a driver of self-inflicted unaliving (S-IU). Unalive people are unalive people, no matter who pulls the trigger. Self-inflicted unalive shouldn’t be discounted. There is strong evidence that suicidal impulses often last mere hours-so the proliferation of a device that makes it incredibly easy to end oneself within seconds of having the impulse directly increases the S-IU rate. This also disproportionately harms men. We live in a culture that undervalues male mental health interventions while simultaneously promoting male ownership of a device that dramatically increases the odds that a single episode of S-IU impulse will result in tombstoning. Most S-IU attempts with any method other than firearms are survived. They simply take too long to end your life, and extend the window of survival. Firearms don’t. Firearms are the only S-IU method that is fatal in over 50% of attempts. This is why firearms make up a minority of attempts, but supermajority of fatalities. Guns are lethal. Owning one significantly increases the odds that a single bad day will result in the owner grievously wounding or unaliving themselves or others. You’re also much more likely to use a gun you own on yourself, your family, or your friends than ever even experience a situation where it would be used for self defense. This platform doesn’t play nice with links, but I will still cite my sources. All stats and claims in this post can be verified by viewing the CDC’s most recent S-IU and flatline by violence, accident, or misadventure statistics from 2022 and (when fully available) 2023.

You can tell the scope of this video, in an effort to appear unbiased and based in historical context, has been narrowed and framed to the extent that it accomplishes neither. He displays the text of the 2nd Amendment, declares it to be confusing, and moves immediately into vivisecting definitions in context of the era. For someone who seemed keen on providing context to the topic, he completely ignored the State Constitutions that have duplicate articles with alternate formatting. For example, in Pennsylvania's Constitution from 1776: "That the people have a right to bear arms for the defense of themselves and the state; and as standing armies in the time of peace are dangerous to liberty, they ought not to be kept up; And that the military should be kept under strict subordination to, and governed by, the civil power." And again, it specifically mentions self-defense before anything else. In Delaware's Constitution "person has the right to keep and bear arms for the defense of self, family, home and State, and for hunting and recreational use." Notice the same order of importance there? Google is your friend, and I promise you that the English language has not changed all that much in 200+ years He cites two clashing expert opinions as a way to frame the Gun Control Debate as an equally-matched logical debate, yet the anti-gun point is hilariously unfounded. "Cornell has indicated that the right to bear arms had almost nothing to do with personal self defense" Which had nothing to do with the header-text "Bear Arms" as those two words has intentionally wide scope. It's meant to cover *every* use-case of a firearm: armed combat, hunting, sport, self-defense, etc. as described in those original constitutions. This is also founded upon Supreme Court Judge Scalia's official opinion, as mentioned later in the video. Pistols were common and popular far before Samuel Colt. Blackbeard was famous for carrying 6 pistols, Colt simply gave people the same capability in the size of one. Samuel Colt did what every modern company's marketing department does. It was not new at the time, and it's not going out of style anytime soon. Colt was successful because his designs were revolutionary in the industry. You also forgot to mention how popular firearms became with women of the era, as goes the phrase "God created man. Samuel Colt made them equal" Gun Rights are Women's rights. The video mentions that firearms were used to control the slave population, but fails to mention that non-whites were prohibited from owning firearms, which could be used to fight for their freedom. Another point against gun control, because it's also racist. The framing on the phrase: "...Guns are used to 'settle disputes'..." is very belittling their importance. The lack of firearms historically leads to oppression, enslavement, and genocide, in that order, with every democidal Authoritarian government of the last century, be it the Nazis, Soviets, CCP (even today with the Uygher Muslisms), Cambodia, Iran, etc.

The biggest problem with guns is the inherent constant responsibility that we as a society must maintain to keep them; all contingent on mental health, laws, the economy, and etc... Something with such potential destructive capabilities must take a lot of discipline that many are not capable of. This is why countries with the least amount of gun deaths either have very strict laws or complete bans. Gun owners will taunt education, but they don't know if they will always be of sound mind to responsibly own them. People will always face adversity and struggle; and every gun owner is not going to triumph. Sadly, it will seem like an easy answer to problems...

Values and ideas are the things that matter. That's what makes an "American". A gun is not a value, it's not an ideology. . A gun is a weapon, a tool, a product. nothing more. And like all products companies need to emotionally manipulate people into purchasing them. By tying guns to nationalism. The same way the cigarette industry tied cigarettes into freedom, individuality self-empowerment and sex appeal. These are just objects, they only have the power and the mythology that WE project onto them.
@POCKET-SAND
@POCKET-SAND 10 дней назад
Believe me, us gun owners need no such encouragement from companies. They are tools, and important ones. It not so much the physical gun itself but the purpose it fulfills that fits in with the "mythology" (I use quotes because there's nothing mythic about this purpose). The idea that this "gun culture" only emerged since the 70s or 80s is just laughably false. The militia, being a force to protect against all threats foreign and domestic, has been well understood in much of America since the 1600s, long before the Revolution even happened. The people should posses the ability to defend the nation and themselves, and of course will need weapons to be able to do so. As such, there has always been interest surrounding guns and their availability. Pretty much all throughout American history up to the 1960s and 70s, civilians had access to the same kind of guns the military was using, sometimes even better ones since the military almost always just contracted gun makers to make their base model in bulk while civilians had options for accessories and additional features for those same models.

I love this take on gun violence because it’s based on literally nothing but personal experience. Rural southern areas have the highest gun death per capita rates anywhere in the country. You live in a rural area of America, why would crime that takes place in cities influence your decision at all? Do you think that the reason there is more crime in cities than there is in rural areas is because of your way of life? The true disillusionment is with the core of the issue and the contributing factors; poverty and mental health. In reality then, we’re kind of attacking the same points from different angles, the federal government and self defense. I want the federal government to provide more resources to mental health institutions and better infrastructure in impoverished communities. You want the federal government to remove all taxes and “send the inner-city folk back to where they came from”. There’s probably some compromise here.

I appreciate your focus on "gun violence", your video is concise enough to stimulate discussion. That being said, I find that so many voices discussing "gun violence" seem to ignore the general function of "violence" in the rest of human society/history/nature. It starts to feel like violence is perpetuated by the gun exponentially; when the instances of "gun violence" can be seen to overlap with regular cycles of societal instability. I suspect that many people's opinions are swayed by their own shallow interpretations of the term, especially when we ignore the duality of it.

4:30 it’s also important to note here that not only colonial leaders required firearms ownership, but the Crown itself did as well. A major reason for the failure of the Spanish claims of North America was the nomadic tribes that were able to avoid the Spanish military. Since the Spanish troops could not be everywhere at once, and the Spanish explicitly barred its citizens from owning weapons in the New World, Spanish power in the Americas dwindled. The British solved this by encouraging hun ownership, thus reducing the military spending and logistics needed to manage such a massive claim. Their biggest mistake was assuming that this policy would’ve eventually backfire on themselves.

Completely incorrect assumption. The free ability of a country to strife towards individual self reliance is not just a key strength but is part of human nature. You have a family, they require things, those things are valuables that predators target… even children are targeted. Daughters etc. The ability to instantly protect everyone around you is human nature and is not transitory. It is STATIC.

I think you were a little misleading on some points. Suggesting that Southerners, Prospecters and Xenophobic Urbanites are the only people who would have a gun seems to put people in a box. And suggesting the gun ownership primarily is a way to "settle dsiputes" is a little narrow minded. Guns are definitely used in that manner but that's not really the core of American Gun Culture. The best way to describe it would be more in line with romanticism around the revolutionary war. The more modern POV is more associated with Cold War survivalism, Anti-government sentiments, Distrust of the government, and popular culture. The idea that gun owner ship is more linked to racism, is a bit divorced from reality. As for the NRA, they have all but disintegrated. The real thing you should have addressed should have been the intent behind the creation of felonies as a way to disenfranchise minorities and strip them of voting and gun rights. The proliferation of Firearms is more or less linked in increased central federal power, and the subsequent incompetence to deal with the consequences of removing local powers over the subject. It is at this point though, and uncontrollable power as the equipent to manufacture firearms is readily and freely available without necessitating federal overwatch as making a gun is relatively easy. The path forward is likely a stalemate.
