36 - KAMALA'S ANTI GUN POLICY

Kamala Harris' Anti Gun policies just may be the nail in the coffin for America. Her radical views, stance on further restrictions, executive orders, and hunger for power is the road map to full blown communism. With beliefs rooted in the teachings of her Marxist father, America needs to open its' eyes, and see Kamala for who she really is.

14
00:00:59.320 --> 00:01:02.840

15
00:01:02.880 --> 00:01:06.359

16
00:01:06.480 --> 00:01:09.640

00:01:09.640 --> 00:01:11.480

00:02:08.319 --> 00:02:10.840
They talk about news, politics, and current events from a

36
00:02:10.919 --> 00:02:15.240
very sensible perspective, and they also sample craft beers from

37
00:02:15.319 --> 00:02:18.120
micro brews to maybe large breweries you haven't heard of,

38
00:02:18.199 --> 00:02:21.000
but very cool. You get to learn a little thing

39
00:02:21.039 --> 00:02:24.439
about you know, beers, may discover some good ones that

40
00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:27.000
you may have never never heard of before. They may

41
00:02:27.039 --> 00:02:29.240
become your favorites, and at the same time, they know

42
00:02:29.240 --> 00:02:31.680
what they're talking about when it comes to current events,

43
00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:39.439
so support whiskey. Hell with that being said, I think, well, firstly,

44
00:02:39.520 --> 00:02:42.360
let me say this. We are going to talk abou Kamala.

45
00:02:42.639 --> 00:02:45.680
How can we not? Election season DNC is coming up Monday,

46
00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:50.360
August nineteenth, and so yeah, Kamala is the topic today,

47
00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:57.360
specifically her wanting to put further restrictions on your right

48
00:02:57.560 --> 00:03:01.520
to bear arms or right to even own guns. And

49
00:03:01.560 --> 00:03:04.360
I'm gonna go down the rabbit hole of that whole issue,

50
00:03:04.680 --> 00:03:07.960
and uh, well, why is she so wrong and why

51
00:03:08.120 --> 00:03:13.120
you should be worried? Now? I do have to get

52
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:17.319
me through the episode. I do have my espresso, actually,

53
00:03:17.319 --> 00:03:20.360
got a shit. I think I got about five shots

54
00:03:20.360 --> 00:03:24.599
of espresso in this this cocktail I have here this morning,

55
00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:28.319
and because I feel like it and I do like

56
00:03:28.360 --> 00:03:31.919
a fine cigar in the morning, I'm going to be

57
00:03:32.039 --> 00:03:35.479
lighting up the tabernacle over here by Foundation Cigars. But

58
00:03:35.560 --> 00:03:37.960
let me get my cutter ready. I think I'm gonna

59
00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:40.439
go ahead and put a V cut on this because

60
00:03:40.479 --> 00:03:43.840
I do prefer a V cut. All right, got that cut.

61
00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:46.919
Now it's time to light this sucker. I'm gonna grab

62
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:51.199
my flame torch lighter here and here we go, and

63
00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:53.919
there we are. I'm gonna toast this up. And I

64
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:56.240
know I don't normally do this on the show. I've

65
00:03:56.319 --> 00:03:59.159
done it a few times, but you know, I'm a

66
00:03:59.159 --> 00:04:02.479
cigar smoker and I enjoy a fine cigar, and today

67
00:04:02.639 --> 00:04:05.240
just felt like, you know, it was a cigar a

68
00:04:05.319 --> 00:04:08.240
cigar day, definitely a cigar morning, and uh with the

69
00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:10.800
pairing of a good, good espresso. So here I go,

70
00:04:11.199 --> 00:04:14.879
a little little little pregame here that looks good. Take

71
00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:19.639
a puff, and then I'll move on. Mmm mm hmm. Yep.

72
00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:23.000
Do yourself a favor if you haven't had a cigar

73
00:04:23.079 --> 00:04:25.240
by Foundation Cigars. By the way, I'm not endorsed by

74
00:04:25.279 --> 00:04:27.879
these guys whatsoever. It's just it kind of become I

75
00:04:27.959 --> 00:04:31.079
go too lately. Haven't had a bad smoke, so check

76
00:04:31.079 --> 00:04:34.720
them out. Usually I smoke the ol Max actually pretty

77
00:04:34.800 --> 00:04:37.720
much almost anything they make. But I gotta say this

78
00:04:37.759 --> 00:04:41.600
tabernacle is awesome. All right. Well that out of the way,

79
00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:43.199
hold on them. Get a little coffee in me, a

80
00:04:43.199 --> 00:04:46.759
litt little espresso. Okay, with that out of the way,

81
00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:51.439
let's get to Kamala. So Kamala Harris believes that it's

82
00:04:51.480 --> 00:04:54.839
her life's mission, and she thinks she's gonna win over

83
00:04:54.920 --> 00:05:02.959
voters by pushing the issue of guns, how guns are dangerous,

84
00:05:03.279 --> 00:05:07.480
how the population well really doesn't need guns. Now, she

85
00:05:07.519 --> 00:05:10.240
hasn't outright said that, but she has more than implied

86
00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:13.519
that by stating she wants to within her first one

87
00:05:13.560 --> 00:05:20.079
hundred days as president, if Congress doesn't pass more restrictive laws,

88
00:05:21.439 --> 00:05:24.920
that she herself will pass an executive order to do so.

89
00:05:26.639 --> 00:05:30.160
It's been heard that, well, she's been heard saying that

90
00:05:31.040 --> 00:05:35.160
she has no problem taken away everyone's guns. Why is

91
00:05:35.160 --> 00:05:38.519
this an issue. It's an issue because one of the

92
00:05:38.560 --> 00:05:42.560
things that keeps a government in check is really the

93
00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:46.399
fear of its own people. Now people realize and understand

94
00:05:46.439 --> 00:05:49.160
we need a government, We need a governing body. There

95
00:05:49.160 --> 00:05:52.720
are things that are too big for all the people

96
00:05:53.079 --> 00:05:57.240
to get together and manage and handle. So a governing

97
00:05:57.279 --> 00:05:59.199
body is really, you know, it's kind of like a

98
00:05:59.240 --> 00:06:03.360
CEO of a comp They're voted in based on their

99
00:06:03.399 --> 00:06:05.319
experiences and merits and what they think they can do

100
00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:09.639
to steer the ship of the company. The United States

101
00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:13.720
of America is pretty large organization and we need the

102
00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:18.160
right person in charge to do so. But just like

103
00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:22.240
a CEO where their job is based on performance, and

104
00:06:22.279 --> 00:06:25.040
their pay is based on incentives. That is one of

105
00:06:25.079 --> 00:06:27.759
the things that keeps the CEO in check, and one

106
00:06:27.800 --> 00:06:30.600
of the things that keeps the president or the government

107
00:06:30.759 --> 00:06:33.439
in general in check is the fact that its citizens

108
00:06:33.879 --> 00:06:39.079
are very heavily armed. Now, in our history, there's only

109
00:06:39.079 --> 00:06:44.759
been a few uprisings against the British government, and you

110
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:48.319
know that was done in an effort to create our

111
00:06:48.439 --> 00:06:52.759
own country and declare our own independence, and we had

112
00:06:52.759 --> 00:06:55.959
a civil war which was North vers South, very bloody,

113
00:06:57.720 --> 00:07:00.560
probably one of the worst wars in our history. So

114
00:07:01.319 --> 00:07:04.879
since then we really haven't had an issue where the

115
00:07:04.920 --> 00:07:07.839
citizens felt it was bad enough to take up arms

116
00:07:07.879 --> 00:07:12.279
and rise up against their government. And because we have

117
00:07:12.519 --> 00:07:15.160
the right to bear arms and we are as a

118
00:07:15.199 --> 00:07:19.480
population armed and at the ready, our government hasn't been

119
00:07:19.519 --> 00:07:24.879
able to overreach and do things that would turn them

120
00:07:25.120 --> 00:07:31.240
into basically tyrannical government where they have complete and total

121
00:07:31.240 --> 00:07:34.519
control of everything you do, down to how much food

122
00:07:34.759 --> 00:07:40.519
you can purchase, what you're allowed to spend your money on, etc.

123
00:07:41.000 --> 00:07:45.360
Although recently it would seem that there have been attempts

124
00:07:45.519 --> 00:07:50.839
to do those things in an indirect way, but still

125
00:07:51.879 --> 00:07:54.959
the fear of its people is what keeps our government

126
00:07:55.680 --> 00:08:01.560
in check and guns are very very big reason why

127
00:08:01.600 --> 00:08:04.600
that is. In fact, it's a tool used for hunting,

128
00:08:04.680 --> 00:08:09.160
for food, and of course for protection of oneself and

129
00:08:09.240 --> 00:08:12.199
for the people against its own government if need be,

130
00:08:13.199 --> 00:08:19.199
and against any foreign entities that wish to cause harm. Now,

131
00:08:19.360 --> 00:08:24.279
the disarmament of the people has always led to catastrophic

132
00:08:24.360 --> 00:08:29.759
results and has led to the result of a tyrannical

133
00:08:29.959 --> 00:08:33.960
or dictorial government, and some examples definitely come to minds

134
00:08:34.000 --> 00:08:38.559
such as the USSR or Russia. There was Nazi Germany,

135
00:08:39.480 --> 00:08:44.440
there was Venezuela, Argentina, and those are just a few.

136
00:08:45.039 --> 00:08:47.240
We can even go as far back as the Ottoman Empire,

137
00:08:49.320 --> 00:08:55.240
and then in more modern times other examples where this

138
00:08:55.320 --> 00:08:57.960
has been implemented and may not have turned out to

139
00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:03.559
be as bad yet, but where governments are definitely imposing

140
00:09:04.120 --> 00:09:08.840
more and more radical socialist agendas and views honest people.

141
00:09:09.679 --> 00:09:14.240
We must also bring up the UK. We also must

142
00:09:14.240 --> 00:09:21.000
bring up Australia and Canada, which is seemingly who seem

143
00:09:21.080 --> 00:09:23.600
to be well on their way to becoming very tyrannical

144
00:09:23.799 --> 00:09:29.639
under the leadership of Justin Trudeau, and with the removal

145
00:09:29.679 --> 00:09:36.559
of guns, things such as free speech go away. The

146
00:09:36.600 --> 00:09:41.200
control of your money goes away. And those are just

147
00:09:41.279 --> 00:09:45.080
the two things that stand out probably the most to people.

148
00:09:45.120 --> 00:09:50.600
But also consider the control of your food. It can

149
00:09:50.639 --> 00:09:54.159
get to a point where it is so bad that

150
00:09:54.200 --> 00:09:58.120
a nation could easily become North Korea. And I'm sure

151
00:09:58.159 --> 00:10:01.639
that is something that every person who is a member

152
00:10:01.679 --> 00:10:06.480
of a free nation absolutely doesn't want. Now you may say,

153
00:10:06.480 --> 00:10:08.639
what does all that have to do with Kamala Harris. Well,

154
00:10:09.919 --> 00:10:15.360
Kamala very much wants to impose your right to bear arms,

155
00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:21.080
your ability to own a weapon, and she's even been

156
00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:25.679
caught saying she wants to impose mass registration. The problem

157
00:10:25.759 --> 00:10:30.840
with mass registration of weapons is really giving the government

158
00:10:30.879 --> 00:10:34.039
a list of known individuals that they can go to

159
00:10:35.720 --> 00:10:41.480
easily confront and disarm. Kamala believes in this so wholeheartedly

160
00:10:41.559 --> 00:10:45.240
that I have a clip here from twenty twenty when

161
00:10:45.360 --> 00:10:48.200
she was running for president against Joe Biden, and she

162
00:10:48.279 --> 00:10:52.919
made a statement where even Joe Biden himself was in

163
00:10:53.000 --> 00:10:58.440
disagreeance of. In fact, he blatantly told her that that's

164
00:10:58.519 --> 00:11:02.240
not possible and it's not constitutional. Now, this clip is

165
00:11:02.279 --> 00:11:08.320
just one example of Kamala Harris stating what she believes

166
00:11:09.279 --> 00:11:13.120
she's not hiding it. And this was in twenty twenty

167
00:11:13.159 --> 00:11:16.200
when she so much wanted to be president, and her

168
00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:19.159
beliefs haven't changed since. But let me go ahead and

169
00:11:19.159 --> 00:11:20.360
play this clip for you.

170
00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:22.399
They said I'm going to issue an executive order, Biden

171
00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:26.000
saying there's no constitutional authority to issue that executive order

172
00:11:26.039 --> 00:11:28.480
when they say I'm going to eliminate assault weapons, saying

173
00:11:28.799 --> 00:11:31.440
you can't do it by executive order anymore than Trump

174
00:11:31.519 --> 00:11:33.519
can do things when he says he can do it

175
00:11:33.519 --> 00:11:36.000
by executive order. Does the Vice president have a point there?

176
00:11:36.200 --> 00:11:38.519
Some things you can, many things you can.

177
00:11:38.679 --> 00:11:41.159
Let's let the senator answer, oll.

178
00:11:40.919 --> 00:11:43.960
I mean I would just say, hey, Joe, it's said

179
00:11:44.000 --> 00:11:46.639
as saying that we can't. Let's say yes we can.

180
00:11:48.919 --> 00:11:51.039
Let's get constitutional.

181
00:11:52.320 --> 00:11:52.639
We can.

182
00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:56.639
So, even after being told to her face it's unconstitutional

183
00:11:57.559 --> 00:12:01.679
that you can't do that, she laughs in the face

184
00:12:01.879 --> 00:12:07.360
of everybody up there and says, no, no, you can,

185
00:12:08.519 --> 00:12:11.919
as if to say, well, I'm going to regardless of

186
00:12:11.960 --> 00:12:16.200
what you think. Now, she tries to justify her tyrannical

187
00:12:16.480 --> 00:12:22.000
communist rhetoric by always pointing to gun violence in America

188
00:12:22.559 --> 00:12:27.440
and mass shootings and keeping kids safe and those are logical,

189
00:12:27.799 --> 00:12:32.759
they're logical statements, They're logical things that we should all

190
00:12:32.759 --> 00:12:36.519
be concerned with. But as with most things that come

191
00:12:36.559 --> 00:12:40.480
out of the mouths of people like Kamala Harris, they're

192
00:12:40.480 --> 00:12:43.120
absolutely taken out of context and blown out of proportion.

193
00:12:43.279 --> 00:12:45.480
And of course, if anybody knows anything about me on

194
00:12:45.519 --> 00:12:47.919
the show, I call people out on their shit, and

195
00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:52.279
I'm not afraid to read the data in support of

196
00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:59.600
my statements. But before I do, Sony another puff that

197
00:12:59.720 --> 00:13:03.519
is agree gar and so now that was back in

198
00:13:03.519 --> 00:13:06.600
twenty twenty she made that statement, and she made it

199
00:13:06.639 --> 00:13:11.840
again a little bit later on on the same campaign

200
00:13:11.919 --> 00:13:13.960
when she was trying to run for president. I'm gonna

201
00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:14.360
play that.

202
00:13:14.279 --> 00:13:17.120
Clip with universal background checks and a renewal of the

203
00:13:17.159 --> 00:13:20.360
assault weapon ban, but they have failed to have the

204
00:13:20.440 --> 00:13:23.279
courage to act. So Ben, here is my response to you.

205
00:13:23.879 --> 00:13:27.639
Upon being elected, I will give the United States Congress

206
00:13:27.679 --> 00:13:30.679
one hundred days to get their act together and have

207
00:13:30.759 --> 00:13:33.519
the courage to pass reasonable gun safety laws, and if

208
00:13:33.519 --> 00:13:36.759
they fail to do it, then I will take executive action.

209
00:13:37.559 --> 00:13:40.639
And specifically, what I will do is put in place

210
00:13:40.720 --> 00:13:44.120
a requirement that for anyone who sells more than five

211
00:13:44.200 --> 00:13:47.960
guns a year, they are required to do background checks

212
00:13:47.960 --> 00:13:52.440
when they sell those guns. I will require that for

213
00:13:52.559 --> 00:13:56.519
any gun dealer that breaks the law, the ATF take

214
00:13:56.679 --> 00:13:59.480
their license. And by the way, ATF alcohol to back

215
00:13:59.519 --> 00:14:01.759
on fire Well, the ATF has been doing a lot

216
00:14:01.759 --> 00:14:03.879
of a and the t banomen to the F and

217
00:14:03.919 --> 00:14:05.879
we need to fix that again.

218
00:14:06.559 --> 00:14:10.879
Kamala Harris stating that within her first hundred days, if

219
00:14:10.919 --> 00:14:13.919
Congress doesn't do what she asks them to do, then

220
00:14:13.960 --> 00:14:20.200
she will pass executive orders to put further restrictions on

221
00:14:20.440 --> 00:14:27.679
gun ownership and the ability to bear arms. Now, she

222
00:14:27.759 --> 00:14:29.919
says some things, as most politicians do. That kind of

223
00:14:29.960 --> 00:14:33.080
makes sense, right, I mean, who doesn't want universal background checks?

224
00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:35.159
I mean, if you're gonna buy a firearm, of course

225
00:14:35.200 --> 00:14:38.000
you want a background check. Why wouldn't she want a

226
00:14:38.000 --> 00:14:42.080
background check on something that could be potentially a dangerous

227
00:14:42.159 --> 00:14:45.120
weapon in the hands of a person who shouldn't have one.

228
00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:52.039
But it always comes down to again taking things out

229
00:14:52.120 --> 00:14:57.679
of context. I'm going to read something about universal background checks.

230
00:14:58.480 --> 00:15:03.639
Here's an article that I got from the National Firearm

231
00:15:03.720 --> 00:15:10.879
Industry Trade Association. It's NSF dot org. They did an

232
00:15:10.879 --> 00:15:16.200
investigation and in their investigation, here's some things that they well,

233
00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:18.039
this is what they came up with, and this is

234
00:15:18.080 --> 00:15:22.200
their findings. It states if universal background checks were mandated,

235
00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:26.320
the question becomes whether criminals would change their behavior and

236
00:15:26.480 --> 00:15:31.799
instead choose to obtain firearms from FFLs or federally licensed

237
00:15:31.840 --> 00:15:35.679
firearms dealers. Okay, so let me stop there and break

238
00:15:35.679 --> 00:15:38.759
that down, because statement makes sense. It's true just because

239
00:15:38.759 --> 00:15:41.720
you mandate these background checks, which by the way, I'm

240
00:15:41.759 --> 00:15:44.559
not against. I think there should be mandated background checks.

241
00:15:44.559 --> 00:15:46.679
If you want to buy a gun, we need to

242
00:15:46.720 --> 00:15:51.279
know that the people buying guns are mentally sound and

243
00:15:51.879 --> 00:15:57.360
are not individuals was extremely violent pass. We absolutely need

244
00:15:57.440 --> 00:15:59.480
to know what's going on. We also need to know

245
00:15:59.519 --> 00:16:03.120
if it's a person that hey might be dumb enough

246
00:16:03.159 --> 00:16:06.559
to try this and guess what they're flag for being

247
00:16:06.799 --> 00:16:13.360
a known terrorist. These things do happen. But the Firearm

248
00:16:13.399 --> 00:16:16.639
Industry Trade Association is correct in their statement. It's not

249
00:16:16.679 --> 00:16:21.440
gonna stop criminals from pursuing the purchase of guns elsewhere.

250
00:16:21.960 --> 00:16:23.919
They're not going to just suddenly go, well, I guess now,

251
00:16:23.919 --> 00:16:25.879
as it's mandated, I'm gonna have to go to a

252
00:16:25.919 --> 00:16:28.159
dealer to buy my gun or my weapon a choice.

253
00:16:28.440 --> 00:16:30.480
Now they'll continue to buy them on the black market.

254
00:16:30.480 --> 00:16:32.200
They're going to continue to steal them. They're going to

255
00:16:32.279 --> 00:16:38.679
continue to find ways to get the guns into their hands. So,

256
00:16:38.879 --> 00:16:41.480
reading on further, it says the Centers for Disease Control

257
00:16:41.559 --> 00:16:45.919
and Prevention review of the effectiveness of various firearm laws,

258
00:16:45.960 --> 00:16:49.360
published in two thousand and three found no evidence this

259
00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:52.480
would happen. Again, as I said earlier, there's no evidence whatsoever.

260
00:16:52.480 --> 00:16:54.879
Criminals are just gonna stop being criminals and trying to

261
00:16:54.919 --> 00:16:59.159
find guns in an illegal fashion. They're going to still

262
00:16:59.200 --> 00:17:02.240
do it regardless of mandates. But again, I do support

263
00:17:02.559 --> 00:17:07.599
the fact that we need universal background checks. Okay. It

264
00:17:07.640 --> 00:17:12.119
says that more recently, in twenty thirteen, the Justice Department

265
00:17:12.160 --> 00:17:16.880
review of violence prevention studies found that even a perfect

266
00:17:17.079 --> 00:17:21.000
universal background check system would not address the largest sources

267
00:17:21.200 --> 00:17:25.920
of crime guns or guns using crimes. Further, the study

268
00:17:25.960 --> 00:17:33.400
found that effectiveness would depend on requiring gun registrations. Now

269
00:17:33.519 --> 00:17:38.119
that right there, requiring gun registrations, which is absolutely something

270
00:17:38.119 --> 00:17:42.759
that Kamala has been behind, is kind of a bad thing.

271
00:17:42.839 --> 00:17:45.000
If you're going to go through the background check, we

272
00:17:45.039 --> 00:17:46.880
already know whether or not you should be able to

273
00:17:46.880 --> 00:17:51.119
have a firearm. The gun registration thing. It's a bit

274
00:17:51.200 --> 00:17:54.559
sticking now. I know we have to register our cars.

275
00:17:55.000 --> 00:17:58.480
I'm sure there's people going to make some arguments on

276
00:17:58.680 --> 00:18:01.880
why we should register fire arms because hey, they can

277
00:18:01.880 --> 00:18:04.960
be considered a weapon. Well, being that, I think out

278
00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:08.279
of the box and I've had you know, martial arts

279
00:18:08.319 --> 00:18:12.079
training end that growing up, I had to know how

280
00:18:12.119 --> 00:18:15.680
to really defend myself. I tend to look at things

281
00:18:15.920 --> 00:18:18.519
at times that could be used as weapons in a

282
00:18:18.640 --> 00:18:21.720
worst case scenario. So if we have to register guns,

283
00:18:22.200 --> 00:18:29.200
then we need to register shovels, axes, pick axes. How

284
00:18:29.200 --> 00:18:35.440
about handsaws, hammers, I mean, almost any garden tool. Let's

285
00:18:35.480 --> 00:18:38.559
register kitchen knives. I mean, do you see where I'm

286
00:18:38.599 --> 00:18:43.480
going with this. Registrations are nothing more than a list,

287
00:18:43.720 --> 00:18:48.759
a list of government can use to identify who has

288
00:18:48.839 --> 00:18:52.079
the weapons, who they need to go to in order

289
00:18:52.119 --> 00:18:57.920
to disarm those individuals. That is the danger of a

290
00:18:58.039 --> 00:19:03.039
national registration or a mandated registration of firearms, because technically

291
00:19:03.119 --> 00:19:05.119
anything could be made a weapon. And I'm going to

292
00:19:05.240 --> 00:19:08.279
go over that later on in the episode when we

293
00:19:08.319 --> 00:19:13.519
start talking about murder and how it compares in the

294
00:19:13.640 --> 00:19:19.000
US to countries that well don't have guns. So reading

295
00:19:19.039 --> 00:19:22.240
on the article from the Firearm Industry Trade Association, It

296
00:19:22.319 --> 00:19:25.759
says here that additional evidence that university background check law

297
00:19:25.759 --> 00:19:29.400
would fail to limit access to firearms among prohibited populations

298
00:19:29.440 --> 00:19:34.279
can be found in an analysis of the implementation of

299
00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:38.839
the Brady Act. According to two thousand study, there was

300
00:19:39.279 --> 00:19:43.039
no evidence that implementation of the Brady Act was associated

301
00:19:43.079 --> 00:19:45.759
with the reduction in homicide rates. And again, as I

302
00:19:45.799 --> 00:19:48.200
just stated earlier, I'm going to go over that in

303
00:19:48.240 --> 00:19:51.559
this episode. Now they go on to make more of

304
00:19:51.559 --> 00:19:55.839
an opinion here, but their statement I kind of agree with, well,

305
00:19:55.880 --> 00:19:57.880
actually I do agree with it. And they make a

306
00:19:57.880 --> 00:20:00.440
statement here saying that ultimately the goal of red stration

307
00:20:00.759 --> 00:20:06.960
for anti gun advocates is confiscation law abiding owners firearms,

308
00:20:06.960 --> 00:20:09.400
and I agree with that because that's exactly what the

309
00:20:09.480 --> 00:20:14.119
goal of the registrations are. All further says the strategy

310
00:20:14.200 --> 00:20:17.319
is historically present in many countries as far back as

311
00:20:17.440 --> 00:20:21.599
Nazi Germany which I mentioned earlier, to modern day Australia,

312
00:20:22.000 --> 00:20:29.599
the United Kingdom, Venezuela, and most recently Canada. So there

313
00:20:29.640 --> 00:20:34.119
you have it. Studies have been done on whether or

314
00:20:34.160 --> 00:20:37.880
not these mandates make a difference in well, they don't

315
00:20:38.079 --> 00:20:40.680
and now again I'm not saying we don't need universal checks.

316
00:20:40.720 --> 00:20:46.839
I mean, that absolutely makes sense, But there isn't a

317
00:20:46.960 --> 00:20:52.359
need for the registration of all gun ownership. And there

318
00:20:52.400 --> 00:20:55.880
isn't any evidence that even by doing universal background checks

319
00:20:55.880 --> 00:20:58.319
that is going to reduce the sales of guns. I mean,

320
00:20:59.279 --> 00:21:01.400
I'm gonna use this as an example. It's a loose example,

321
00:21:01.839 --> 00:21:04.680
but we all know that marijuana has been made legal

322
00:21:04.720 --> 00:21:08.240
in pretty much almost every state, pretty much started here

323
00:21:08.240 --> 00:21:14.519
in California. The legalization of marijuana did not stop or

324
00:21:15.119 --> 00:21:20.000
kill off the black market of marijuana sales. In fact,

325
00:21:20.000 --> 00:21:23.640
to this day, thousands and thousands and thousands, maybe tons

326
00:21:24.279 --> 00:21:29.440
and tons of pounds of marijuana are still imported, smuggled

327
00:21:29.720 --> 00:21:35.400
illegally into the US and sold on the streets because

328
00:21:35.839 --> 00:21:39.200
even though marijuana was made legal, the retail, the legal

329
00:21:39.200 --> 00:21:42.200
retail said in marijuana, while the prices themselves are so

330
00:21:42.440 --> 00:21:45.720
high because of all the regulation, red tape and money

331
00:21:45.720 --> 00:21:48.279
the government wants as a kickback to make it legal,

332
00:21:48.799 --> 00:21:51.720
that people are still turning to the black market to

333
00:21:51.920 --> 00:21:58.160
get affordable marijuana. Now, again, marijuana is not a gun,

334
00:21:58.519 --> 00:22:02.640
but still an example of how well further mandating things

335
00:22:03.799 --> 00:22:09.119
doesn't eliminate a person's ability to buy what they need

336
00:22:09.599 --> 00:22:12.640
or attain what they need in an illegal fashion on

337
00:22:12.960 --> 00:22:16.079
the black market. Now, so far, I really hope I'm

338
00:22:16.079 --> 00:22:23.119
making sense here. Okay, Again, universal background checks? Sure, why not?

339
00:22:24.079 --> 00:22:28.480
But giving the government a comprehensive list of people who

340
00:22:28.519 --> 00:22:33.880
actually own firearms and confiscate those firearms from those people

341
00:22:33.920 --> 00:22:37.759
who may use them to actually live by hunting for

342
00:22:37.799 --> 00:22:44.200
their food and protecting themselves is wrong. It is absolutely wrong.

343
00:22:45.319 --> 00:22:49.079
And once we allow that, what's going to stop them from,

344
00:22:49.079 --> 00:22:53.400
as I said earlier, making you register for other frivolous

345
00:22:53.440 --> 00:22:59.319
items that they deem dangerous and unnecessary for you to

346
00:22:59.440 --> 00:23:04.839
own and use in any manner you see. Fit again,

347
00:23:05.079 --> 00:23:09.519
universal background checks, great registrations. No. Now her other claim

348
00:23:09.920 --> 00:23:14.680
and what she alluded to by stating, well, any legal

349
00:23:14.680 --> 00:23:20.640
firearms dealer caught violating the law and providing false information,

350
00:23:21.400 --> 00:23:25.279
they should have the licenses revoked and find etc. Possibly

351
00:23:25.319 --> 00:23:29.160
even jailed. Now, Kamala, slow your fucking role here, okay.

352
00:23:30.240 --> 00:23:34.240
Firearms dealers can't necessarily control whether or not the information

353
00:23:34.319 --> 00:23:38.839
provided by an individual is in fact true, And the

354
00:23:38.920 --> 00:23:43.359
whole reason to have background checks is for the governing

355
00:23:43.519 --> 00:23:46.880
agencies who actually run and screen these people based on

356
00:23:46.920 --> 00:23:49.920
the information given is so that it could be fact

357
00:23:50.039 --> 00:23:51.920
checked and so they can find out whether or not

358
00:23:51.960 --> 00:23:56.279
this individual is legitimately who they say they are. So

359
00:23:56.519 --> 00:24:00.200
how is that the burden of the firearms dealer. Fire

360
00:24:00.240 --> 00:24:05.400
Arms dealers aren't selling guns illegally intentionally. There's a thing

361
00:24:06.720 --> 00:24:12.240
called straw purchases, which relates to those individuals who were

362
00:24:12.400 --> 00:24:18.839
actually hired by drug cartels and other gangs and dangerous

363
00:24:18.880 --> 00:24:23.359
individuals who have a clean, perfect record, but get paid

364
00:24:23.440 --> 00:24:29.119
by these cartels and gangs to purchase these legal firearms,

365
00:24:29.160 --> 00:24:33.480
which are then taken and smuggled across the borders or

366
00:24:33.799 --> 00:24:38.559
put into the hands of these dangerous individuals. Now, you

367
00:24:38.640 --> 00:24:42.839
can't blame the dealers for this. These are just criminals

368
00:24:42.880 --> 00:24:45.880
being criminals. Criminals will always find a way. Just as

369
00:24:45.920 --> 00:24:49.960
in the days of prohibition when they outlawed alcohol, bootleggers

370
00:24:49.960 --> 00:24:54.359
still figured it out and people still consumed alcohol. It's

371
00:24:54.519 --> 00:24:57.079
not something you're going to stop, just as your war

372
00:24:57.160 --> 00:25:02.119
on drugs never worked and drugs are still sold illegally

373
00:25:02.759 --> 00:25:08.680
in an enormous, ungodly amount to the tune of trillions

374
00:25:08.720 --> 00:25:11.839
and trillions of dollars. So let's stop trying to put

375
00:25:12.119 --> 00:25:15.039
a band aid on the crack of the dam here,

376
00:25:15.480 --> 00:25:18.920
and let's concentrate on the real issue, which is criminal

377
00:25:19.039 --> 00:25:25.359
organizations and the black market. Here's a report from the ATF.

378
00:25:25.400 --> 00:25:27.680
I got this from the ATF government website, and I'm

379
00:25:27.680 --> 00:25:30.400
just gonna read a little bit about firearms, the amount

380
00:25:30.519 --> 00:25:35.359
of that have been documented in trafficking. It states here

381
00:25:35.400 --> 00:25:40.119
the ATF firearm trafficking investigations documented nearly two hundred and

382
00:25:40.319 --> 00:25:45.319
thirty thousand firearms trafficked in seven seven hundred and seventy

383
00:25:45.359 --> 00:25:50.119
nine cases between twenty seventeen and twenty twenty one. It

384
00:25:50.160 --> 00:25:56.359
says most firearm traffic investigations involved the diversion of relatively

385
00:25:57.000 --> 00:25:59.759
small number of firearms, with an overall mean of sixteen

386
00:25:59.759 --> 00:26:07.720
five firearms trafficked per investigation. So again, firearms trafficking. And

387
00:26:07.839 --> 00:26:10.000
I gotta be honest if I'm reading that number. We

388
00:26:10.440 --> 00:26:15.599
roughly have three hundred and thirty million individuals in the

389
00:26:15.680 --> 00:26:19.799
United States of America, that's our population, and two hundred

390
00:26:19.839 --> 00:26:24.279
and thirty thousand firearms over the course of twenty seventeen,

391
00:26:24.400 --> 00:26:28.960
eighteen nineteen twenty twenty one, I mean four or five years, correct,

392
00:26:29.599 --> 00:26:33.880
So that's not really a lot if you look at

393
00:26:34.039 --> 00:26:40.799
from that perspective. But I'm not justifying gun trafficking. Okay,

394
00:26:40.839 --> 00:26:42.920
of course that's illegal. That's not what we want. But

395
00:26:43.000 --> 00:26:45.559
these aren't all the real numbers. Now, what I found

396
00:26:45.920 --> 00:26:48.839
when I was doing a little bit of investigating on

397
00:26:48.920 --> 00:26:55.000
this issue is that it got harder and harder to

398
00:26:55.200 --> 00:27:01.279
tie the actual amounts of firearms. Two, what the ATF

399
00:27:01.359 --> 00:27:08.039
considers trafficking channels. Trafficking channels being you know, weapons or

400
00:27:08.079 --> 00:27:11.480
guns sold by actual legitimate dealers, but they're selling it

401
00:27:11.559 --> 00:27:18.319
knowingly and illegally, to guns that are illegally imported into

402
00:27:18.359 --> 00:27:21.640
the United States for sale, to guns that are stolen

403
00:27:21.720 --> 00:27:26.480
from individuals. I mean, you name it. Any They really

404
00:27:26.480 --> 00:27:31.799
break down drug trafficking by specific categories. And when I

405
00:27:31.920 --> 00:27:35.279
was searching for this, and honestly, the ATF did put

406
00:27:35.279 --> 00:27:38.680
out a report this year twenty twenty four on gun

407
00:27:38.720 --> 00:27:43.279
trafficking and gun sales, but they always always referred to

408
00:27:43.319 --> 00:27:50.680
everything by cases cases in which they found guns were trafficked.

409
00:27:51.079 --> 00:27:56.039
They don't necessarily always point to an actual amount of

410
00:27:56.160 --> 00:28:01.440
guns per case and or per trafficking channel. Now they

411
00:28:01.440 --> 00:28:04.160
allude to it a little bit later, but it doesn't

412
00:28:04.160 --> 00:28:06.960
seem so accurate, as you're going to find out later

413
00:28:07.000 --> 00:28:11.200
in this show. So let's start with firearm trafficking channel types.

414
00:28:11.960 --> 00:28:15.599
This is directly from the report that was taken from

415
00:28:15.599 --> 00:28:20.519
the ATF, and this data was taken during the time

416
00:28:20.599 --> 00:28:25.680
period of twenty seventeen and twenty twenty one. This will

417
00:28:25.720 --> 00:28:30.240
be part three of the report, Firearm Trafficking Channels and

418
00:28:30.279 --> 00:28:33.960
Methods Used. And I'm going to read the firearm trafficking

419
00:28:34.039 --> 00:28:38.160
channel types. So it says here that the survey completed

420
00:28:38.599 --> 00:28:41.799
provided eighteen options to select from as a type of

421
00:28:42.000 --> 00:28:46.200
trafficking channel, including a category labeled other. Okay, so there

422
00:28:46.240 --> 00:28:50.400
can be more than one trafficking channel cited per case. Now, again,

423
00:28:50.480 --> 00:28:53.359
as I said, they tried to make the numbers and

424
00:28:53.400 --> 00:28:57.000
percentages more about cases, and I think this has done

425
00:28:57.079 --> 00:29:01.720
intentionally to overwhelm people who don't want to dig deeper

426
00:29:01.720 --> 00:29:05.599
into what's being said. But regardless, this is how they

427
00:29:05.960 --> 00:29:09.880
conducted their report. So let's go over those trafficking channels

428
00:29:09.880 --> 00:29:14.640
that they have identified. There are traffic in firearms by

429
00:29:15.000 --> 00:29:19.279
unlicensed dealers or private persons. There are trafficking in firearms

430
00:29:19.279 --> 00:29:23.640
by a straw purchaser. As I mentioned, earlier or straw

431
00:29:23.720 --> 00:29:26.440
purchasing rings. So it could be a gang or group

432
00:29:26.480 --> 00:29:30.359
of people who intentionally go out to purchase these firearms

433
00:29:30.440 --> 00:29:36.039
for individuals, gangs and other illegal organizations. There's also trafficking

434
00:29:36.039 --> 00:29:41.119
in firearms by methods of being stolen from a licensed dealer. Okay,

435
00:29:41.680 --> 00:29:46.119
there's a trafficking in firearms by theft from private persons.

436
00:29:46.160 --> 00:29:53.000
There's illegally exported from the United States two other places.

437
00:29:53.039 --> 00:29:57.839
So these are firearms that are actually exported from the USA.

438
00:29:58.480 --> 00:30:01.759
I'm going to go over that because there's a lot

439
00:30:02.079 --> 00:30:04.880
to that. It's not what you might think in your mind,

440
00:30:05.000 --> 00:30:09.319
as in dealers or people buying guns legally and then

441
00:30:09.440 --> 00:30:15.319
illegally exporting them as individuals. It's actually more or less

442
00:30:15.400 --> 00:30:21.319
driven by and funded by the Mexican drug cartels. So

443
00:30:21.559 --> 00:30:23.279
very important for you to keep that in the back

444
00:30:23.279 --> 00:30:30.000
of your mind. Okay. There's also online marketplaces. There's unlicensed makings.

445
00:30:30.920 --> 00:30:33.799
I'm not really sure about what they mean by that,

446
00:30:33.839 --> 00:30:37.359
but there's also gun shows, flea markets, or auctions, social

447
00:30:37.440 --> 00:30:40.880
media platforms. Basically, they're just identifying different marketplaces where things

448
00:30:40.880 --> 00:30:43.960
are sold illegally or under the table. There's also peer

449
00:30:43.960 --> 00:30:47.480
to peer applications illegally imported into the United States, and

450
00:30:47.519 --> 00:30:50.960
then of course that's interesting because they don't really talk

451
00:30:51.000 --> 00:30:55.119
about that much. And then there's also stolen from common carriers,

452
00:30:55.119 --> 00:31:00.200
so when they're in transport, they're stolen. Either way, it

453
00:31:00.240 --> 00:31:03.960
seems like most of this has to do with illegal methods,

454
00:31:05.200 --> 00:31:08.319
and one of the bigger ways that they are obtained

455
00:31:08.880 --> 00:31:11.440
is honestly through these straw purchases. Now it says here

456
00:31:12.039 --> 00:31:15.400
unlicensed dealers are private persons make up forty percent of

457
00:31:15.440 --> 00:31:18.200
all the cases that they found between the periods of

458
00:31:18.200 --> 00:31:22.640
twenty seventeen twenty twenty one, but straw purchasing rings come

459
00:31:22.680 --> 00:31:27.279
in second at thirty nine point five percent. Now, what

460
00:31:27.319 --> 00:31:31.160
I do question here, because again these are percentage of cases.

461
00:31:31.200 --> 00:31:34.440
What they are not telling you is percentage of or

462
00:31:34.680 --> 00:31:39.559
amount of guns or weapons in each trafficking channel that

463
00:31:39.720 --> 00:31:44.640
has been identified. Because the exportation of guns in which

464
00:31:44.960 --> 00:31:48.640
I mentioned earlier about it being driven by and funded

465
00:31:48.680 --> 00:31:52.319
by the Mexican cartels, is actually very big and very

466
00:31:52.440 --> 00:31:56.359
lucrative for the Mexican cartel. So there's a little bit

467
00:31:56.400 --> 00:32:00.160
of skewed data, but they did do the report. At

468
00:32:00.200 --> 00:32:02.880
least they're identifying the issues which is a good thing

469
00:32:02.920 --> 00:32:06.559
because now we know where to start and where to focus. Now,

470
00:32:06.599 --> 00:32:09.200
in part four of the report, labeled source to market,

471
00:32:10.519 --> 00:32:16.240
they go over sources as in how these firearms are

472
00:32:16.359 --> 00:32:20.240
being moved around or where they're coming from. States. Here

473
00:32:20.319 --> 00:32:23.440
that the term source to market type captures the geographic

474
00:32:23.559 --> 00:32:28.759
scope of firearm trafficking cases. Again the word cases, because

475
00:32:29.039 --> 00:32:31.480
that's what they want to focus on. How many cases,

476
00:32:32.599 --> 00:32:35.680
not necessarily the total number. And again I've scattered this report.

477
00:32:35.960 --> 00:32:39.000
They do eventually come to a point where they mention

478
00:32:39.759 --> 00:32:41.960
a number of firearms, but again I found them to

479
00:32:41.960 --> 00:32:45.240
be inaccurate when I dug deeper. But again let's let's

480
00:32:45.279 --> 00:32:48.759
stick the report here. So let me back up. So

481
00:32:48.799 --> 00:32:51.880
the term source to market type captures the geographic scope

482
00:32:51.920 --> 00:32:57.119
of firearms trafficking cases, which include intrastate, interstate, and international

483
00:32:57.160 --> 00:33:01.839
trafficking within the US. State trafficking involves a movement of

484
00:33:01.839 --> 00:33:07.920
firearms in markets within states, while interstate trafficking occurs between states,

485
00:33:08.960 --> 00:33:11.400
and then international trafficking involves and moving to firearms in

486
00:33:11.440 --> 00:33:14.519
markets between the US and a foreign country. So it

487
00:33:14.559 --> 00:33:19.680
says here in the report that the percentage of cases

488
00:33:19.960 --> 00:33:25.799
that are related to intrust state are fifty five point

489
00:33:26.160 --> 00:33:32.160
nine percent. Number of cases related to interstate is thirty

490
00:33:32.200 --> 00:33:36.319
two point one and then US to foreign is nineteen

491
00:33:36.400 --> 00:33:42.079
point two percent of cases, and foreign into the US

492
00:33:42.880 --> 00:33:45.960
is only one point four percent. Now, these are percentages

493
00:33:46.200 --> 00:33:50.920
of cases, not amount of weapons. Very important for you

494
00:33:51.000 --> 00:33:55.440
to realize that, because it's easy to say by looking

495
00:33:55.440 --> 00:33:58.160
at this, well, look how many cases they have of

496
00:33:58.519 --> 00:34:02.400
illegal firearms sales within the United States itself. We definitely

497
00:34:02.440 --> 00:34:06.000
have an internal problem when it comes to firearms. But

498
00:34:06.599 --> 00:34:10.079
the problem with this data and this report in general,

499
00:34:10.199 --> 00:34:13.920
is it doesn't touch enough on the amount of firearms

500
00:34:13.920 --> 00:34:18.599
per case. And are those firearms necessarily that are being

501
00:34:18.599 --> 00:34:21.599
moved around in the United States, do they stay in

502
00:34:21.639 --> 00:34:24.000
the United States, and do they remain in the hands

503
00:34:24.719 --> 00:34:29.880
of people within the United States? Very important distinction here. Now,

504
00:34:29.920 --> 00:34:33.000
the next section I'm going to read here is part five,

505
00:34:33.519 --> 00:34:38.039
and they go over in this report the type and

506
00:34:38.199 --> 00:34:42.280
volume of firearms trafficked, and I'm going to read the

507
00:34:42.320 --> 00:34:46.800
top three types of firearms that have been trafficked. So

508
00:34:47.400 --> 00:34:51.679
there are new firearms make up sixty five point eight

509
00:34:51.679 --> 00:34:54.719
percent of total cases. And again this is from the

510
00:34:54.760 --> 00:35:00.239
period twenty seventeen to twenty twenty one. In second, there

511
00:35:00.280 --> 00:35:04.239
are second hand firearms, which make up thirty nine point

512
00:35:04.239 --> 00:35:10.280
eight percent. Now secondhand obviously being sold by private individual

513
00:35:10.679 --> 00:35:12.119
I don't even know if it could just also have

514
00:35:12.119 --> 00:35:15.760
been handed down to somebody for inheritance or just given

515
00:35:15.800 --> 00:35:18.960
to another person, but these are weapons that were moved

516
00:35:19.000 --> 00:35:25.840
outside of I would assume a legal dealer. And then

517
00:35:26.039 --> 00:35:31.199
the third is stolen firearms. So let's not forget there

518
00:35:31.199 --> 00:35:34.920
are still plenty of firearms being stolen. Now. I do

519
00:35:35.039 --> 00:35:37.400
have to say it's a little alarming that most of

520
00:35:37.800 --> 00:35:43.079
all firearms that are being trafficked are new firearms. And

521
00:35:43.119 --> 00:35:45.119
now we got to ask ourselves, well, how are those

522
00:35:45.199 --> 00:35:50.400
being obtained? Again, that correlates back to straw purchases or

523
00:35:50.400 --> 00:35:56.039
straw purchasing rings. And as I as I defined earlier,

524
00:35:56.079 --> 00:36:00.840
it is individuals or gangs of people that are hired

525
00:36:00.920 --> 00:36:04.079
due to their perfect record. They pass the background checks,

526
00:36:04.559 --> 00:36:08.639
and they're paid by cartels and other criminal organizations to

527
00:36:08.840 --> 00:36:13.679
purchase these weapons from legal dealers and then recirculate them

528
00:36:13.880 --> 00:36:18.760
into the black market. Now, so far, it's easy to

529
00:36:18.760 --> 00:36:27.400
surmize that Kamala Harris's crazy vengeful stance against the American

530
00:36:27.440 --> 00:36:32.599
people in trying to disarm them really doesn't make any

531
00:36:32.679 --> 00:36:36.480
sense because thus far in this report by the ATF,

532
00:36:38.199 --> 00:36:43.239
everything having to do with gun sales and illegal gun

533
00:36:43.280 --> 00:36:48.679
sales are well actually done by illegal methods. So far,

534
00:36:49.000 --> 00:36:56.280
it hasn't been proven that legal gun dealers are just illegally, willingly,

535
00:36:56.360 --> 00:37:02.000
illegally selling and flooding the market with guns. In fact,

536
00:37:02.519 --> 00:37:09.880
further on their report, they have a section labeled investigation outcomes,

537
00:37:09.880 --> 00:37:12.159
and I like this part because they actually get down

538
00:37:13.519 --> 00:37:17.239
to the meat and potatoes of this report and kind

539
00:37:17.280 --> 00:37:22.079
of contradict themselves because so far everything has been you know,

540
00:37:22.480 --> 00:37:27.280
percentage of cases, percentage of cases by trafficking source, and

541
00:37:27.599 --> 00:37:32.199
they did label a large amount, a large percentage being

542
00:37:32.239 --> 00:37:38.800
associated with gun dealers. But in this figure ten zero two,

543
00:37:39.159 --> 00:37:42.079
which is number and percentage of cases by top ten

544
00:37:42.360 --> 00:37:47.639
statutory violations, it paints a different story. Here in this report,

545
00:37:48.320 --> 00:37:52.440
it says that thirty five point three percent of all

546
00:37:52.559 --> 00:37:58.880
cases had to do with dealing in firearms without a license,

547
00:38:00.199 --> 00:38:05.039
so individuals not legal firearms dealers, but basically dealing firearms

548
00:38:05.039 --> 00:38:07.960
with a license. And obviously most of this is due

549
00:38:07.960 --> 00:38:12.719
to under the table sales and done by means of

550
00:38:12.920 --> 00:38:17.159
black market sales, and that made up thirty five point

551
00:38:17.199 --> 00:38:20.559
three percent. Twenty eight point nine percent was due to

552
00:38:20.760 --> 00:38:27.400
providing false info to acquire fire arms from a dealer. Again,

553
00:38:27.880 --> 00:38:31.239
Kamala Harris wants to penalize the dealers for this false

554
00:38:31.239 --> 00:38:35.280
information that is being provided, but also realize that there

555
00:38:35.280 --> 00:38:39.280
are organizations being paid by cartels to figure out how

556
00:38:39.320 --> 00:38:42.199
to circumvent the system to acquire these firearms. So is

557
00:38:42.199 --> 00:38:44.039
it really the dealers who need to be put on

558
00:38:44.119 --> 00:38:47.880
trial here and have their licenses revoked and be fined

559
00:38:47.920 --> 00:38:49.239
and penalized and sent to jail.

560
00:38:49.400 --> 00:38:49.480
No.

561
00:38:49.880 --> 00:38:52.760
The bigger problem Kamala has here and that the government

562
00:38:52.800 --> 00:38:55.960
has here and that the people have here is black market.

563
00:38:56.119 --> 00:39:00.880
So how do we effectively shut down black market sales?

564
00:39:01.440 --> 00:39:03.480
That's a great question I don't have an answer for.

565
00:39:03.719 --> 00:39:05.960
I don't think anybody has an answer for. Because again,

566
00:39:06.000 --> 00:39:09.159
criminals are going to be criminals. Why are you going

567
00:39:09.239 --> 00:39:12.840
to go after and impose restrictions on people trying to

568
00:39:13.000 --> 00:39:18.119
legally purchase and obtain firearms? I guess to argue, we

569
00:39:18.199 --> 00:39:20.639
made well, you know, these straw purchasing rings do the

570
00:39:20.639 --> 00:39:23.320
same thing. They present themselves as legal individuals. Fair enough,

571
00:39:23.320 --> 00:39:26.079
But again they're going through a background check, and there's

572
00:39:26.119 --> 00:39:29.000
no way to determine whether or not the information is

573
00:39:29.079 --> 00:39:38.000
correct except by the entity that is supposedly checking these applications.

574
00:39:39.039 --> 00:39:43.880
So who do we really hold accountable, the legal firearms

575
00:39:43.920 --> 00:39:48.480
dealer or the organizations that are processing these background checks. Now,

576
00:39:48.599 --> 00:39:51.079
that is where we may need to focus if we're

577
00:39:51.159 --> 00:39:55.599
going to get a handle on the illegal gun trafficking

578
00:39:56.079 --> 00:40:00.800
situation we have in the United States of America, targeting

579
00:40:00.880 --> 00:40:08.000
citizens who want to own weapons for hunting protection and

580
00:40:08.840 --> 00:40:16.320
literally exercising their constitutional right to bear arms. Now, let

581
00:40:16.400 --> 00:40:21.559
me take another puff of my cigar here. Okay, So,

582
00:40:22.039 --> 00:40:28.719
of all of all media outlets, CBS actually did a

583
00:40:28.760 --> 00:40:35.760
report on the Mexican drug cartels that were smuggling weapons

584
00:40:35.760 --> 00:40:39.960
across the border. Again, I mentioned this earlier, and this

585
00:40:40.000 --> 00:40:43.960
is why I kept alluding to the fact that in

586
00:40:44.039 --> 00:40:48.320
the report by the ATF and most people who spew

587
00:40:48.880 --> 00:40:53.960
the rhetoric of abolishing our Second Amendment rights, they never

588
00:40:54.000 --> 00:40:59.960
really tell you the amount of guns per trafficking channel,

589
00:41:00.960 --> 00:41:05.920
And in fact, the ATF report left it to percentage

590
00:41:06.039 --> 00:41:11.920
of cases. Right. But again, when I went back to

591
00:41:12.280 --> 00:41:19.719
the firearms trafficking channels, supposedly those that were done by

592
00:41:20.880 --> 00:41:25.920
export or import were minuscule in terms of percentage of cases.

593
00:41:26.679 --> 00:41:31.559
But the reality is the Mexican drug cartels. And this

594
00:41:31.679 --> 00:41:35.880
report by CBS, conducted in September of twenty twenty three,

595
00:41:35.960 --> 00:41:42.519
so last year, investigates this phenomena. I'm going to read

596
00:41:42.559 --> 00:41:45.760
some of this report here says Mexican drug cartels have

597
00:41:45.800 --> 00:41:50.639
been smuggling a vast arsenal of even military grade weapons

598
00:41:50.719 --> 00:41:53.039
out of the US with the help of American citizens.

599
00:41:53.840 --> 00:41:57.480
It says exclusively obtained US intelligence documents and interviews with

600
00:41:57.519 --> 00:42:00.519
half a dozen current and former officials. Feel that the

601
00:42:00.559 --> 00:42:05.360
American government has known this for years, but sources said

602
00:42:05.480 --> 00:42:09.599
it's done little to stop these weapons trafficking networks inside

603
00:42:09.639 --> 00:42:13.280
the United States. Well, that's interesting, So they known the

604
00:42:13.360 --> 00:42:18.239
issue has mostly been trafficking funded by the drug cartels,

605
00:42:19.360 --> 00:42:22.159
but they're not focusing in that. They're just focusing on

606
00:42:22.480 --> 00:42:26.320
citizens trying to buy guns legally and how they have

607
00:42:26.400 --> 00:42:28.719
to have more mandates and restrictions on your right to

608
00:42:28.719 --> 00:42:32.079
bear arms. Okay, Now, if that doesn't tell you what

609
00:42:32.159 --> 00:42:36.199
your government is about at this moment, I'm not really

610
00:42:36.199 --> 00:42:38.199
sure what else I will tell you that's going to

611
00:42:38.280 --> 00:42:41.719
convince you that we have a problem with people like

612
00:42:41.800 --> 00:42:43.920
Kamala Harris. But I'm gonna keep reading. This report by

613
00:42:43.920 --> 00:42:48.119
CBS says dozens of cartel gun running networks operating like

614
00:42:48.360 --> 00:42:52.280
terrorists cells, pay Americans to buy weapons from gun stores

615
00:42:52.320 --> 00:42:55.679
and online dealers across the country as far north as

616
00:42:55.760 --> 00:43:00.000
Wisconsin and even Alaska. It says, according to US intelligence sources,

617
00:43:00.360 --> 00:43:03.639
the firearms are then shipped across the southwest border through

618
00:43:03.760 --> 00:43:10.000
a chain of brokers and couriers. So again, the major

619
00:43:10.320 --> 00:43:13.840
problem we have with the drug trafficking epidemic or legal

620
00:43:13.920 --> 00:43:18.159
gun sales is really fueled by criminal organizations like the

621
00:43:18.199 --> 00:43:21.719
Mexican drug cartels, and it states here that they have

622
00:43:21.719 --> 00:43:24.400
found that they were paying people in the US to

623
00:43:24.440 --> 00:43:28.599
make these legal purchases, while these people are part of

624
00:43:28.639 --> 00:43:33.719
the straw ring organizations or even straw purchasers as individuals

625
00:43:33.880 --> 00:43:37.320
who are knowingly doing this illegally because the cartels are

626
00:43:37.480 --> 00:43:39.760
either making them do it or paying them.

627
00:43:39.599 --> 00:43:40.000
To do it.

628
00:43:40.559 --> 00:43:45.119
The article further reads and alludes to a project labeled

629
00:43:45.199 --> 00:43:48.920
Project Thor, in which it found that the problem of

630
00:43:49.079 --> 00:43:52.559
cartel weapons smuggling was far worse than previously understood. They

631
00:43:52.679 --> 00:43:56.519
estimated that cartels were trafficking between hold On for this

632
00:43:56.840 --> 00:44:02.159
two hundred and fifty thousand and one million weapons every

633
00:44:02.280 --> 00:44:05.320
year with the retail value of up to five hundred

634
00:44:05.599 --> 00:44:10.000
million dollars, and that doesn't include ammunition and tactical supplies

635
00:44:10.599 --> 00:44:15.320
hold On. So already we're seeing a huge discrepancy because

636
00:44:15.320 --> 00:44:18.199
the ATF and their reports and press releases said that

637
00:44:18.239 --> 00:44:20.679
they've only and again this is all during the same

638
00:44:20.679 --> 00:44:23.920
time period, but they stated there was only two hundred

639
00:44:24.000 --> 00:44:28.599
thirty thousand firearms trafficked in these seven seven hundred and

640
00:44:28.679 --> 00:44:31.320
seventy nine cases they found between twenty seventeen and twenty

641
00:44:31.360 --> 00:44:35.559
twenty one. But CBS doing their own investigative study, found

642
00:44:35.559 --> 00:44:38.199
that it was anywhere from two hundred fifty to over

643
00:44:38.320 --> 00:44:45.079
one million weapons being funneled through the black market system

644
00:44:45.280 --> 00:44:50.280
and illegal trafficking efforts by the drug cartels themselves. So yeah,

645
00:44:50.320 --> 00:44:54.119
we have an issue here. The US government is obviously

646
00:44:54.239 --> 00:44:57.079
lying to us about our gun problem. They're lying to

647
00:44:57.159 --> 00:45:02.599
us about the trafficking issue. You because if all the

648
00:45:02.599 --> 00:45:05.360
illegal black market sales of guns and trafficking are done

649
00:45:05.360 --> 00:45:07.239
in the US and put back into the hands of

650
00:45:07.280 --> 00:45:10.920
the individuals living in the United States, then why are

651
00:45:10.920 --> 00:45:13.280
you trying to hide the real numbers? Are the two

652
00:45:13.320 --> 00:45:16.239
hundred and thirty thousand firearms that they reported, Are those

653
00:45:16.360 --> 00:45:18.559
only the ones that stayed in the United States? Out

654
00:45:18.599 --> 00:45:21.280
of the three hundred and thirty million people who live here,

655
00:45:21.599 --> 00:45:25.280
two hundred and thirty thousand were circulated within the United States. Well,

656
00:45:25.280 --> 00:45:29.639
that's not true because when we read the report, they

657
00:45:29.880 --> 00:45:34.519
stated the percentage of cases that were interstate and interstate,

658
00:45:34.599 --> 00:45:37.800
and they also have in the report a percentage that

659
00:45:37.880 --> 00:45:42.400
were imports and exports. So remember when I said that

660
00:45:42.400 --> 00:45:45.280
the percentage of imports and exports were much lower than

661
00:45:45.320 --> 00:45:50.920
those by interstate and interstate. Sure, So this is why

662
00:45:50.960 --> 00:45:52.800
I was important for you to remember when I was

663
00:45:53.039 --> 00:45:55.960
saying that they were focusing on percentage of cases and

664
00:45:55.960 --> 00:46:01.039
not really number of weapons per case or trafficking channel.

665
00:46:01.519 --> 00:46:06.119
It's obvious the bigger issue we have are illegal firearms

666
00:46:06.320 --> 00:46:11.440
being distributed and trafficked outside of the United States, meaning

667
00:46:11.519 --> 00:46:15.920
sent from the US to illegal corrupt organizations outside and

668
00:46:15.960 --> 00:46:19.800
then distributed that through the black market and throughout the

669
00:46:19.800 --> 00:46:23.760
world that way. So while we do have a gun

670
00:46:23.800 --> 00:46:27.559
trafficking issue, there is no evidence yet here that I've

671
00:46:27.599 --> 00:46:33.079
read that says are the citizens of the United States themselves.

672
00:46:33.840 --> 00:46:37.960
And in fact, I would even further be bold enough

673
00:46:38.000 --> 00:46:41.760
to stay that if the drug cartels are involved and

674
00:46:42.679 --> 00:46:46.159
exporting these guns out of the United States, what percentage

675
00:46:46.159 --> 00:46:48.920
of those guns that remain in the United States aren't

676
00:46:48.960 --> 00:46:53.480
in fact just redistributed by the drug cartels to their

677
00:46:53.639 --> 00:46:59.000
organizations that are within our own borders. You see, the

678
00:46:59.079 --> 00:47:04.360
drug cartels operate their own illegal gangs in organizations within

679
00:47:04.480 --> 00:47:09.480
the United States. We know this. So the data is skewed.

680
00:47:09.599 --> 00:47:13.159
The data has been put together to make you think

681
00:47:13.760 --> 00:47:16.400
that it's a good idea for the government to confiscate

682
00:47:16.599 --> 00:47:19.559
your weapons. Now, while you marinate on that, I'm going

683
00:47:19.639 --> 00:47:25.119
to play a clip that has Kamala Harris stating once again,

684
00:47:25.199 --> 00:47:27.639
and this is twenty twenty four, not five years ago.

685
00:47:28.079 --> 00:47:32.880
This is her twenty twenty four, literally last month in July,

686
00:47:33.719 --> 00:47:36.599
saying that she will take executive action to make sure

687
00:47:36.960 --> 00:47:41.039
there are further restrictions put on you, the people of

688
00:47:41.079 --> 00:47:46.159
the United States, to exercise your sec Amendment right to

689
00:47:46.719 --> 00:47:51.000
arm yourself, to be ready God forbid, if it ever

690
00:47:51.079 --> 00:47:53.800
did come to it, to defend yourself against the US government.

691
00:47:55.159 --> 00:47:57.800
And let's not even go that extreme. You're right to

692
00:47:57.840 --> 00:48:00.920
even just have a firearm to protect yourself on your

693
00:48:00.960 --> 00:48:03.880
own land to hunt for food. I mean, there are

694
00:48:04.000 --> 00:48:06.880
very various other reasons why he would need a gun.

695
00:48:07.360 --> 00:48:10.280
It's not just for defending yourself against your own government,

696
00:48:10.280 --> 00:48:13.480
although that is again what is keeping our government in check. Here,

697
00:48:13.519 --> 00:48:14.119
let me go in place.

698
00:48:14.119 --> 00:48:16.639
I think your control agenda for Yeah, I think it's

699
00:48:16.679 --> 00:48:19.159
a great idea, But I mean, listen, I don't think

700
00:48:19.159 --> 00:48:20.559
we lacked for great ideas.

701
00:48:20.719 --> 00:48:23.880
As I've said many times, We've been having great ideas

702
00:48:23.920 --> 00:48:24.559
for decades.

703
00:48:24.880 --> 00:48:27.159
The problem is that Congress does not have the courage

704
00:48:27.159 --> 00:48:30.800
to act. And that is why from the beginning I

705
00:48:30.840 --> 00:48:34.639
have said my agenda include attempting to get chionomists to act.

706
00:48:34.639 --> 00:48:36.480
But if they don't in the first hundred days of

707
00:48:36.519 --> 00:48:39.199
my administration, I'm going to take an executive action because

708
00:48:39.239 --> 00:48:40.360
what we need is action.

709
00:48:41.239 --> 00:48:48.119
Again, Kamala wants to take executive action because action is

710
00:48:48.159 --> 00:48:54.840
what's needed. You may be saying, Walt's she's not. She's

711
00:48:54.880 --> 00:48:58.400
not demonstrating anything there or saying anything that that means

712
00:48:58.400 --> 00:49:03.519
she's wanting to take guns away from citizens. Fair enough,

713
00:49:03.519 --> 00:49:07.599
But here's another clip of Kamala Harris that you may

714
00:49:07.639 --> 00:49:08.360
find interesting.

715
00:49:09.280 --> 00:49:16.679
Gun violence has terrorized and traumatized so many of our

716
00:49:16.719 --> 00:49:21.679
communities in this country. And let us be clear it

717
00:49:21.760 --> 00:49:25.360
does not have to be this way, as our friends

718
00:49:25.400 --> 00:49:28.159
in Australia have demonstrated.

719
00:49:28.440 --> 00:49:33.280
As I said earlier, and I mentioned countries that have

720
00:49:33.960 --> 00:49:38.519
in more recent times that stand out taken guns away

721
00:49:38.519 --> 00:49:42.920
from their citizens. As I said, the UK, Canada and Australia.

722
00:49:43.440 --> 00:49:46.679
Remember what happened to the Australian citizens during COVID. They

723
00:49:46.679 --> 00:49:53.000
were being punished, arrested and patrolled by their own police

724
00:49:53.039 --> 00:49:57.960
forces to stay within their homes with their door shut.

725
00:49:57.960 --> 00:50:01.320
They couldn't even go in their front yards within certain

726
00:50:01.360 --> 00:50:08.280
times without being punished or arrested. Another example, how the

727
00:50:08.280 --> 00:50:13.679
people of a nation without without having the means to

728
00:50:13.719 --> 00:50:19.239
protect themselves, without the government fearing its own citizens, how

729
00:50:19.480 --> 00:50:24.639
that government can become tyrannical. Same thing in Canada. They

730
00:50:24.639 --> 00:50:27.079
removed the guns. Then they removed your right to use

731
00:50:27.119 --> 00:50:29.360
your money how you wanted to. If everybody remembers the

732
00:50:29.400 --> 00:50:32.920
truck or convoy protests that took place in Canada, and

733
00:50:33.360 --> 00:50:36.519
what did the government do under Trudeau's reign, Well, they

734
00:50:36.559 --> 00:50:39.000
didn't have guns that the citizens didn't have any way

735
00:50:39.039 --> 00:50:42.719
to protect themselves whatsoever. There was no fear of their

736
00:50:42.719 --> 00:50:45.639
own citizens, and so they went after their bank accounts

737
00:50:45.679 --> 00:50:49.159
and shut down people's bank accounts where they couldn't fund

738
00:50:49.199 --> 00:50:51.760
the truckers. They wouldn't be able to pay for the

739
00:50:51.760 --> 00:50:56.039
truckers wages while they were protesting, where the truckers themselves

740
00:50:56.079 --> 00:51:01.960
couldn't use their own money to purchase anything. So these

741
00:51:01.960 --> 00:51:06.119
are just examples that may be a little closer to

742
00:51:06.159 --> 00:51:09.159
home in terms of America, but because we consider Canada,

743
00:51:09.360 --> 00:51:14.039
UK Australia are close, you know, brothers or cousins or

744
00:51:14.079 --> 00:51:17.679
sisters where we have it. And let's not even forget

745
00:51:17.719 --> 00:51:21.239
what happened to Argentina and Venezuela way back when their

746
00:51:21.280 --> 00:51:26.679
guns were confiscated by voting for socialist leftist policies that

747
00:51:26.800 --> 00:51:33.559
eventually led to a tyrannical communist government. Now here's a

748
00:51:33.679 --> 00:51:39.840
quote from Mao Zeidong, also known as Mao Setung. Now

749
00:51:39.960 --> 00:51:44.440
I may have mispronounced as slightly, but he was the

750
00:51:44.559 --> 00:51:48.679
leader of the China's Communist Revolution and served as the

751
00:51:48.760 --> 00:51:51.760
first Chairman of the People's Republic of China nineteen forty

752
00:51:51.840 --> 00:51:55.480
nine through nineteen fifty nine and Chairman of the Chinese

753
00:51:55.480 --> 00:52:01.440
Communist Party from nineteen thirty one through nineteen seventy six. Now,

754
00:52:01.920 --> 00:52:06.000
he said, all political power comes from the barrel of

755
00:52:06.079 --> 00:52:11.360
a gun. The Communist Party must command all the guns

756
00:52:11.840 --> 00:52:15.599
that way, No guns can ever be used to command

757
00:52:16.199 --> 00:52:22.239
the party. You want me to repeat that, or maybe

758
00:52:22.239 --> 00:52:25.800
I should one more time. He said, all political power

759
00:52:25.880 --> 00:52:29.719
comes from the barrel of a gun. The Communist Party

760
00:52:30.239 --> 00:52:34.199
must command all the guns that way, no guns can

761
00:52:34.360 --> 00:52:39.760
ever be used to command the party. That's a bit

762
00:52:39.800 --> 00:52:46.599
scary because it's sounding a little similar to the policies

763
00:52:47.480 --> 00:52:49.519
that are trying to be put in place by the

764
00:52:49.559 --> 00:52:53.480
Democratic Party of the United States, and very very similar

765
00:52:54.000 --> 00:52:56.599
to Kamala Harris's take. Now, I'm not saying she's an

766
00:52:56.599 --> 00:53:01.280
outright commedy, Well maybe i am, but pretty adamant on

767
00:53:01.400 --> 00:53:08.280
not just restricting but taking your guns. And the only

768
00:53:08.320 --> 00:53:11.559
reason to do so, the only reason any government would

769
00:53:11.559 --> 00:53:13.800
want to try to force or impose this, is so

770
00:53:13.880 --> 00:53:18.400
that the government has control of their citizens, just as

771
00:53:19.119 --> 00:53:25.679
the Communist Party has done throughout history. Don't call it

772
00:53:25.679 --> 00:53:35.079
a coincidence when it is coincidentally extremely frequent. It is

773
00:53:35.159 --> 00:53:39.239
now a truth. It is no longer a conspiracy This

774
00:53:39.400 --> 00:53:42.840
is reality. These are the dangerous times in which we

775
00:53:42.880 --> 00:53:47.440
live in, and we must pay attention. And this is

776
00:53:47.440 --> 00:53:52.360
why it's very important that we vote accordingly, because behind

777
00:53:52.400 --> 00:53:55.679
the scenes, this is how it's going to happen. They

778
00:53:55.719 --> 00:53:58.400
take away the guns. Who has the guns the government

779
00:53:58.840 --> 00:54:01.719
once you can't defend yourself, then they control the food

780
00:54:02.599 --> 00:54:07.280
and your money, which by then, I'm sure, if this

781
00:54:07.360 --> 00:54:12.400
does happen, will be useless, just as it was useless

782
00:54:12.920 --> 00:54:17.880
in Argentina and in Venezuela. We're on a dangerous path here.

783
00:54:19.119 --> 00:54:22.119
The citizens have to recognize that the right to bear

784
00:54:22.320 --> 00:54:29.639
arms is not just some cliche American patriotic statement. The

785
00:54:29.719 --> 00:54:33.679
right to bear arms was intelligently and thoughtfully made a

786
00:54:33.840 --> 00:54:39.199
part of our constitution for a very good reason, and

787
00:54:39.280 --> 00:54:42.239
that reason is to keep the government in check and

788
00:54:42.280 --> 00:54:47.719
to protect the citizens, protect our rights in maintaining the

789
00:54:47.800 --> 00:54:53.599
status of a free nation. But the government, the government

790
00:54:53.599 --> 00:54:57.159
wants to further scarre you. So even if you realize

791
00:54:57.800 --> 00:55:01.159
that you need your weapon to keep the government check,

792
00:55:01.639 --> 00:55:06.960
they're going to play on your sympathies. And listen, murder

793
00:55:06.960 --> 00:55:09.960
and death is not okay, it's not good. So don't

794
00:55:10.000 --> 00:55:13.559
think that I'm advocating for any of that. But I

795
00:55:13.679 --> 00:55:18.320
gotta stick to the data and the facts. And as

796
00:55:18.719 --> 00:55:20.920
much as we don't want to hear the numbers and

797
00:55:20.960 --> 00:55:23.639
hear about people dying, I still have to go over

798
00:55:23.679 --> 00:55:30.880
this because facts matter. Data matters, and the Democratic Party

799
00:55:31.800 --> 00:55:37.000
and the Harris Waltz campaign has been telling you that

800
00:55:37.039 --> 00:55:40.880
they want to protect the children, that the mass shootings

801
00:55:40.920 --> 00:55:44.079
are just outrageous, and we wouldn't have these mass shootings

802
00:55:44.119 --> 00:55:50.639
if we just took guns away, that nobody would die.

803
00:55:50.880 --> 00:55:54.800
But there's some data that I need to go over now.

804
00:55:54.880 --> 00:56:00.559
The Brady Organization did some studies on gun violence in America,

805
00:56:01.760 --> 00:56:05.599
and I've got data from this organization from their website,

806
00:56:05.679 --> 00:56:09.159
which is Bradyunited dot org. Well, who are these people?

807
00:56:10.559 --> 00:56:14.400
It says here that at Brady, gun violence is personal,

808
00:56:14.519 --> 00:56:18.239
from our founder to our namesakes to today. We are

809
00:56:18.280 --> 00:56:21.840
a survivor led it's our legacy, it's our lineage, and

810
00:56:21.960 --> 00:56:25.119
it's our present. Many of our leaders and team members

811
00:56:25.559 --> 00:56:29.320
know firsthand the devastating toll gun violence takes. So this

812
00:56:29.400 --> 00:56:33.559
is an organization that takes gun violence serious. They definitely

813
00:56:33.599 --> 00:56:36.480
want to control it because gun violence isn't good, period.

814
00:56:37.320 --> 00:56:42.599
But their numbers I think are very important. The research

815
00:56:42.639 --> 00:56:46.519
they did in finding the percentage of gun violence in

816
00:56:46.599 --> 00:56:52.199
America based on types of violence is eye opening and

817
00:56:52.280 --> 00:56:58.800
relevant to this discussion that we're having. So on their

818
00:56:58.840 --> 00:57:02.039
own website and their data, it says, again, going back

819
00:57:02.039 --> 00:57:05.320
to mass shootings, mass shootings are bad. Killing children is

820
00:57:05.440 --> 00:57:10.960
absolutely bad. But it's interesting to know that in Brady's

821
00:57:10.960 --> 00:57:14.920
own data, the Brady Organization's own data, it says mass

822
00:57:14.920 --> 00:57:19.239
shootings make up only one percent of all gun violence

823
00:57:19.280 --> 00:57:26.599
in America. One percent. Yes, it's still bad. It's still

824
00:57:26.599 --> 00:57:29.360
the mass shooting of kids. I get it. But it's

825
00:57:29.440 --> 00:57:34.679
only one percent. It says here that sixty percent, sixty percent.

826
00:57:34.920 --> 00:57:39.559
This is important people, sixty percent more than fifty sixty

827
00:57:39.559 --> 00:57:44.960
percent of the gun desks are actually suicides, thirty percent

828
00:57:45.239 --> 00:57:49.280
less than fifty. In fact, less than forty percent are homicides.

829
00:57:49.840 --> 00:57:53.159
And that percentage also includes one percent of the mass shooting.

830
00:57:53.239 --> 00:57:55.239
So if we take out mass shootings, it's thirty six

831
00:57:55.280 --> 00:57:59.400
percent are homicides. Mass shootings are one percent. And the

832
00:57:59.400 --> 00:58:03.400
reason theyfy that separately because it's it's not a it's

833
00:58:03.400 --> 00:58:05.920
not a thing. It's not a regular occurrence. As bad

834
00:58:05.960 --> 00:58:08.119
as it is, it's not an everyday occurrence. It's not

835
00:58:08.159 --> 00:58:13.280
a common event. It's not something that happens every day.

836
00:58:14.239 --> 00:58:16.519
And then it says three percent of gun deaths include

837
00:58:16.679 --> 00:58:21.840
law enforcement involved shootings, unintentional shootings, and those that were undetermined.

838
00:58:22.920 --> 00:58:29.519
Interesting data. So how much are guns contributing to deaths

839
00:58:29.559 --> 00:58:33.159
and homicides in America? Especially when it comes to mass shootings? Now,

840
00:58:33.159 --> 00:58:35.519
mass shootings. So I'm gonna say a few things on that,

841
00:58:36.320 --> 00:58:38.519
mass school shootings within the last I want to say,

842
00:58:38.519 --> 00:58:42.679
five years. I just did this, I just did this data.

843
00:58:42.880 --> 00:58:48.039
I dug this up just recently that most of all

844
00:58:48.079 --> 00:58:50.039
of them, now not all, I'm not saying all, but most,

845
00:58:50.119 --> 00:58:54.440
I'm gonna say the majority for sure, factually for sure,

846
00:58:54.440 --> 00:59:00.440
and you can look us up. We're actually done by

847
00:59:00.880 --> 00:59:07.519
those who were transitioning, people who were considered to be transgender.

848
00:59:08.159 --> 00:59:12.719
And these are kids who are transitioning, people whose hormones

849
00:59:12.760 --> 00:59:17.719
are at a whack, people who are insecure, unsure, and

850
00:59:17.840 --> 00:59:24.599
mentally unstable. And that's a harsh reality. So I'm gonna

851
00:59:24.679 --> 00:59:27.239
just throw this question out there to you. Are guns

852
00:59:27.599 --> 00:59:31.559
really the issue or is it the person using the

853
00:59:31.639 --> 00:59:35.840
gun as a weapon? Is it really the gun or

854
00:59:35.920 --> 00:59:40.960
is it really the mental instability of the person using

855
00:59:41.159 --> 00:59:43.800
the gun as a weapon. And you see, this is

856
00:59:43.840 --> 00:59:48.280
where we need to do better, because teenagers and kids

857
00:59:49.599 --> 00:59:52.599
don't just act without showing you signs that they need

858
00:59:52.639 --> 00:59:57.599
help or that they're reaching out for attention because there's

859
00:59:57.599 --> 01:00:02.239
an underlying issue that they can't solve. They always show you.

860
01:00:02.320 --> 01:00:05.000
The problem is most people don't know how to recognize

861
01:00:05.000 --> 01:00:08.639
it or flat out blatantly ignore it, and then one

862
01:00:08.719 --> 01:00:13.480
day things boil over and we have these tragic situations

863
01:00:14.000 --> 01:00:17.239
and the first thing people do is point to the gun,

864
01:00:18.559 --> 01:00:22.880
when in fact it wasn't the gun. Murder rates don't

865
01:00:22.920 --> 01:00:25.840
go down because you take away guns. Now, I'll admit

866
01:00:25.920 --> 01:00:31.239
maybe the ability to execute a well, poor choice of

867
01:00:31.239 --> 01:00:37.119
word there, I apologize, but basically, the inability to kill

868
01:00:37.159 --> 01:00:42.119
people on a level of a mass shooting where there's

869
01:00:42.239 --> 01:00:45.840
multiple individuals that wants dying within an event is going

870
01:00:45.920 --> 01:00:48.760
to be hard to pull off without a gun. I

871
01:00:48.800 --> 01:00:51.519
could admit that, but it's not going to stop people

872
01:00:51.519 --> 01:00:54.880
from being killed. As you're going to find out here shortly,

873
01:00:56.599 --> 01:00:59.280
I'm going to go over murder rates, murder rates by

874
01:00:59.320 --> 01:01:03.880
population so currently and I took a lot of this

875
01:01:03.960 --> 01:01:05.880
data and now most data only goes up to twenty

876
01:01:05.920 --> 01:01:09.639
twenty two. Every so many years they go back and

877
01:01:09.760 --> 01:01:14.599
they create more studies or new studies based on current data.

878
01:01:14.639 --> 01:01:18.679
But regardless this stance, the USA currently has three hundred

879
01:01:18.760 --> 01:01:20.960
and thirty million. It's really like three hundred and thirty

880
01:01:20.960 --> 01:01:23.639
three million or so. So if we did the numbers

881
01:01:23.679 --> 01:01:27.280
based on how many murders there were in the USA,

882
01:01:27.480 --> 01:01:31.079
and I'm gonna also point out that these murders weren't

883
01:01:31.119 --> 01:01:37.639
all by gun. Okay, these are just murders. The total

884
01:01:37.639 --> 01:01:41.760
percentage of murders as of twenty twenty two data in

885
01:01:41.800 --> 01:01:45.239
the United States was less than one percent out of

886
01:01:45.239 --> 01:01:48.360
three hundred and thirty three million people. Less than one percent.

887
01:01:48.360 --> 01:01:52.760
In fact, it was point zero zero six y four.

888
01:01:54.480 --> 01:01:58.679
Now compare that to the UK, where they took guns

889
01:01:58.679 --> 01:02:01.119
away from their citizens, you would think there'd be no murders.

890
01:02:01.760 --> 01:02:06.000
Now the population of the UK, which is far less

891
01:02:06.519 --> 01:02:10.119
it's sixty seven million, they also have a murder rate

892
01:02:10.159 --> 01:02:13.360
of less than one percent. Now, murders didn't go away.

893
01:02:14.159 --> 01:02:17.920
Murders did not go away even though they took away guns. Now,

894
01:02:18.119 --> 01:02:22.239
isn't that interesting. As I stated earlier, criminals will be criminals.

895
01:02:22.440 --> 01:02:27.199
They will find a way. The UK's percentage was point

896
01:02:27.320 --> 01:02:30.360
zero zero one zero, of course lower than the US,

897
01:02:31.760 --> 01:02:35.960
but they also have a smaller population. Regardless, both numbers

898
01:02:36.000 --> 01:02:40.000
are less than one percent and less than one percent

899
01:02:41.159 --> 01:02:45.800
by just a little bit in the UK, which is

900
01:02:45.840 --> 01:02:48.440
a nation and where guns are taken from their citizens.

901
01:02:48.679 --> 01:02:52.360
Now let's go to Australia because their data last data

902
01:02:52.360 --> 01:02:54.440
they collected was in twenty twenty one. Now they only

903
01:02:54.480 --> 01:02:58.000
have twenty six million people. That's it. Again, they have

904
01:02:58.039 --> 01:03:01.519
the lowest murder rate, still less than one percent, and

905
01:03:01.599 --> 01:03:03.519
it's less than the UK and the US. It's point

906
01:03:03.639 --> 01:03:08.280
zero zero nine to three. But again murders didn't go away.

907
01:03:09.360 --> 01:03:12.840
So let's look at some of this data here. So

908
01:03:12.920 --> 01:03:17.800
I'm looking at data from Australia, for example, and the

909
01:03:18.159 --> 01:03:20.719
data on here is very similar to what you would

910
01:03:20.760 --> 01:03:26.239
find in the UK, where number of homicides are literally

911
01:03:26.800 --> 01:03:30.199
the highest percentage is done by sharp objects. So they're

912
01:03:30.239 --> 01:03:33.880
still finding ways to kill you. They're gonna either do

913
01:03:33.920 --> 01:03:37.280
it by a knife, or they're going to fabricate a

914
01:03:37.320 --> 01:03:39.440
stabbing weapon, just like you hear about in prisons. You

915
01:03:39.480 --> 01:03:42.119
heard about shives, Well, those are where prisoners actually make

916
01:03:43.079 --> 01:03:49.039
knives or stabbing objects out of just common materials. What's

917
01:03:49.119 --> 01:03:53.480
really interesting is the brutality here. Getting up close and

918
01:03:53.559 --> 01:03:58.039
personal to kill someone with a knife takes a lot

919
01:03:58.199 --> 01:04:03.440
more commitment than using a gun. Period. A gun has

920
01:04:03.480 --> 01:04:07.199
the ability to kind of separate yourself from the act

921
01:04:07.320 --> 01:04:10.079
to a degree because you could do it at a distance.

922
01:04:10.079 --> 01:04:11.880
But with a knife you have to sit there and

923
01:04:11.880 --> 01:04:17.119
continually stab and cut and slash. You really have to

924
01:04:17.159 --> 01:04:20.119
show that you're committed in your mind to be able

925
01:04:20.159 --> 01:04:22.440
to pull this off to kill another individual. But what

926
01:04:22.519 --> 01:04:27.800
I find interesting in second place, the most common cause

927
01:04:27.800 --> 01:04:33.440
of murder is blunt force trauma by beating someone to death.

928
01:04:33.880 --> 01:04:36.400
That's right, beating someone to death. Do you want to

929
01:04:36.440 --> 01:04:38.320
be beat to death? Do you know what that's like?

930
01:04:38.360 --> 01:04:39.960
Have you ever been in a fight where you're ganged

931
01:04:40.039 --> 01:04:42.519
up on and were kicked and punched by multiple people.

932
01:04:42.800 --> 01:04:48.039
You imagine them not stopping to the point where you die.

933
01:04:48.119 --> 01:04:53.039
I would say that takes on another level of brutality. Okay,

934
01:04:53.400 --> 01:04:56.119
And this is very similar to the UK. The numbers

935
01:04:56.159 --> 01:04:59.199
may be different, the percentages may be different because of

936
01:04:59.239 --> 01:05:03.079
the size of poplations, but in the UK, in Australia,

937
01:05:03.440 --> 01:05:07.440
the leading cause of death is by sharp object or stabbing,

938
01:05:08.000 --> 01:05:13.000
and second literally beating someone to death. Think about that.

939
01:05:13.800 --> 01:05:19.440
So taking away your guns has no effect on getting

940
01:05:19.519 --> 01:05:22.880
rid of murder whatsoever. And in each case, if you

941
01:05:22.920 --> 01:05:27.079
go by population, the percentages are extremely close. In the US,

942
01:05:27.679 --> 01:05:32.000
to the UK and to Australia, they're all very similar

943
01:05:32.039 --> 01:05:36.079
to each other in terms of percentages, and those number

944
01:05:36.079 --> 01:05:39.519
of percentages very close. The only difference is the amount

945
01:05:39.599 --> 01:05:41.880
of actual people, because again we have three hundred and

946
01:05:41.880 --> 01:05:44.559
thirty million or three hundred and thirty three million, and

947
01:05:44.639 --> 01:05:48.719
these other nations have sixty seven million and twenty six million, respectively,

948
01:05:49.360 --> 01:05:53.400
but still one percent less than one percent is still

949
01:05:53.599 --> 01:05:58.239
the percentage of homicides in each case. And taking away

950
01:05:58.320 --> 01:06:04.039
guns from the citizens did not eliminate murders period. So

951
01:06:04.119 --> 01:06:08.760
what's the reason then, why does Kamala want to take

952
01:06:08.800 --> 01:06:16.039
your guns away? Again, it's for control, it's for control.

953
01:06:16.360 --> 01:06:20.639
It's because they do not want you to have the

954
01:06:20.760 --> 01:06:25.199
right to bear arms. And it's been proven that taking

955
01:06:25.239 --> 01:06:29.400
away guns is not going to eliminate murder. But at

956
01:06:29.400 --> 01:06:31.239
the same time, it does make it easy for the

957
01:06:31.280 --> 01:06:34.760
government to control you and impose their will on you,

958
01:06:35.239 --> 01:06:39.719
just as they did in Argentina. And Venezuela and Communist Russia,

959
01:06:40.639 --> 01:06:46.119
Nazi Germany, and the list goes on, the list goes on.

960
01:06:46.679 --> 01:06:50.880
So be very careful in supporting the Democratic Party right now,

961
01:06:51.760 --> 01:06:56.440
be very careful in throwing all your support behind Kamala Harris,

962
01:06:56.480 --> 01:07:00.639
because she really does mean what she says, not hiding

963
01:07:00.719 --> 01:07:04.880
it from you, She is telling you. And I think

964
01:07:05.119 --> 01:07:08.360
that we need to be very smart about this. And yes,

965
01:07:08.480 --> 01:07:14.719
democracy literally is on the line this election. Now, I

966
01:07:14.760 --> 01:07:17.079
know this is all a lot of data and a

967
01:07:17.079 --> 01:07:21.119
lot of facts absorb and believe me, I can keep going.

968
01:07:21.239 --> 01:07:25.679
I mean I haven't even dove into Venezuela and Argentina

969
01:07:26.000 --> 01:07:27.960
and how the nail on the coffin for those nations

970
01:07:28.360 --> 01:07:32.679
were when they gave up their weapons, and I can

971
01:07:32.719 --> 01:07:36.480
go back even further in discussing the occupations of the

972
01:07:36.519 --> 01:07:42.320
Ottoman Empire and how they also instituted the disarmament of

973
01:07:42.920 --> 01:07:49.199
their people. Once again, thanks so much for sport and show.
