(Originally aired 13 May 2018) Deconstructing two gun control talking points back to back: - Gun Control's ADHD: forgetting past incidents that were once their rallying cry, which explains why they keep retreading the same arguments over and over again. - The "Who Needs" argument, as applied to speech rights.

(Originally aired 29 Apr 2018) I don't drink and handle guns at the same time, but I will have to admit, some Jack and Mountain Dew did contribute to making this series of talking point takedowns fun.

(Originally aired 21 Apr 2018) Which is safer--gun control in Europe, or American concealed carry?

(Originally aired 14 Apr 2018) I explore this question: what are the problems seen in BOTH the anti-gun and pro-gun camps in the Great American Gun Debate?

(Originally aired 8 Apr 2018) A common complaint levied against AR-15s is that they are "high powered." Here, we compare the relative power of the 5.56 NATO to pistol and other rifle cartridges.

(Originally aired 1 April 2018) Faculty in higher ed are supposed to be paragons of reason and truth seeking. Unfortunately, when it comes to guns on campus, they run more on speculation and emotion.

(Originally aired 24 Mar 2018) At the time, a hashtag was proliferating on social media by gun control fangirls -- #whatif -- decrying the perceived unreasonableness of gun rights advocates. Here was my answer to that.

(Originally aired 24 Mar 2018) I found a parallel between "March for Our Li(v)es" and the Children's Crusade of 1212.

(Originally Aired 17 Mar 2018) Here, we briefly explore the historical relationship between arms ownership and free men.

(Originally aired 10 Mar 2018) Gun control advocates love mentioning how 100 lives are lost each day to "gun violence." Gun rights can play that game, too. For every life lost to "gun violence," at least 13 are saved by defensive gun use.

(Originally aired 4 March 2018) Never one to let a tragedy go unexploited, Everytown tried to push the lie that 18 school shootings had happened in the first few months of 2018. Media outlets left, right, and center called them out on it. But, it's not the first time Everytown has used inflated numbers for the sake of fearmongering.

(Originally aired 9 Feb 2018) The Trace expressed some consternation over comments submitted to the ATF over its proposed bump stock regulations. Despite their insistence that most people want gun control, the greater majority of comments were against the ban. What's more, pro-gun commenters showed much more knowledgeability than gun control commenters.

(Originally aired 10 Dec 17). The Violence Policy Center has long tried to demonize concealed carry practitioners, creating an entire page dedicated to the topic. But, as is typical of the VPC, its research is shoddy, and CCW licensees are actually some of the safest gun owners around.

(Originally aired 3 Dec 2017) Gun control propaganda likes making "gun violence" look as huge of a problem as it can. But it ignores the fact that 99.7% of gun owners *don't* contribute to "gun violence."

(Originally aired 27 Nov 2017) Gun control fanboys were all giddy about Remington going bankrupt, and really hoped it spelled doom for gun manufacturing. A fan of the page set the record straight by giving a little lesson on economics.

(Originally aired 26 Nov 2017) gun control types often get confused about "Assault Weapons." This video lays out how the AR-15 does NOT qualify as such.

(Originally aired 19 Nov 2017). Gun control types assume that fear drives gun ownership. My experience as a gun owner, and that of others, says something quite different.

(Originally aired 7 Jan 18) One common complaint about 2A by gun control folk is that it's being "misinterpreted," and that gun rights advocates ignore the "well-regulated" part. Well, here's what they get wrong. About the whole amendment.

(Originally aired 1 Jan 18) Every so often, gun control likes to trot out veterans as "experts" on gun policy. They have this habit of choosing poorly, and around this time, a Dr. Dean Winslow was being considered for the position of the Pentagon's top health official. Then he said stupid stuff about guns.

(Originally aired 4 Feb 18) "Guns are designed to kill!" Then, why is it that so relatively few of them are misused to that end?

(Originally aired 28 Jan 18) Gun control propagandists are always trying to compare us to "peer countries," but they always have to engage in statistical and rhetorical sleight-of-hand to try to make their point.

(Originally aired 21 Jan 18) are online gun purchases really the problem that gun control propagandists make them out to be?

(originally aired 5 Nov 2017) This was the pinned video for Season 1, giving an overview as to what this series was about.

It started in 2016 with a desire to do something creative and informative. I started putting it together in 2017, not knowing where it would go or how far. It went from 25 friends I knew from other pro-gun groups, and at its height, had over 500 followers. I lost a lot with the exodus from Facebook, but numbers were of less importance than just sharing about American gun culture, and addressing the misinformation spread by those hostile to it. I wound up with 10 seasons, spanning four years, and made over 120 videos. This is my tribute to those four years, and a little of what went on behind the scenes. Sadly, all good things must come to an end, and this will be the last video I make for this series. I may still post videos from time to time, but for now, it's time to move on. I will be uploading past seasons for those of you who like reruns. Thanks to everyone who took the time to watch these. Feel free to share, comment, and above all, keep fighting for your civil rights!

(Originally aired 14 Jan 18) What drives "Gun Control 2.0" is an emphasis on guns as defensive tools. Gun control likes to mock this attitude, but the truth is, that's how they're used, and a lot more often than Everytown and the VPC would like to admit.
