Regardless of the Unconstitutional 14th Amendment (Naturalized) citizen process! By way of the foreign Declaration of Independence of the Europeans forefathers, they freely gave up their Laws, Flag, Nation, Nationality, and Motherland.

In many scenarios, an armed society is more peaceful. Polite might be a stretch. However, when muggers and robbers know that there is a chance the random citizen right next to them is carrying a weapon, they would be less likely to threaten that person or another innocent person within their view. The problem with America is people are growing up not learning that actions have consequences, and instead are learning that if you follow the right ideology and say the right words, you can get away with anything that would not be true on the opposite side. People lack introspection and don't know how to put themselves in the other person's shoes. And quite frankly, people have become extremely sociopathic and self-centered. America doesn't have a armed society problem, they have a mental health problem. National crisis levels of that problem.

I went back to college in my late 20s and got my BS. I went to an EXTREMELY liberal college and as a Conservative, I gotta say, it was bad. I had ONE openly Conservative professor in 5 semesters before I graduated and he was the only one who actually wanted his students to think critically. All the others had such a liberal agenda, I swear to you, I felt like an undercover spy in a Nazi propaganda school. My last semester I took an Advocacy & Argument class and my group had to debate gun control. Thankfully, we were the final debate and I was the pro-2A advocate. I researched for a month to get it perfect: I crafted my debate specifically to get the entire room engaged & set them up for to trap them in my point. I even researched the points the other side was most likely going to try to use to leverage my plan so by the time they got to it, I had already hit the 3-pointer from mid-court. It was brilliant and by the time I was finished, almost every liberal in that room had this look on their faces like they just discovered they'd been lied to their entire lives. Did I change anybody's opinion? Probably not. But at least I was able to make those kids think critically.

A lot of people don't get the depth of need. That's why they don't understand semi-auto rifles and carbines. They don't understand that to hit three armed men breaking down your door with a six shot revolver is damn near impossible unless you train constantly and are just naturally cool under pressure. For normal person who goes to the range every couple months or less, the only gun that's going to work there is something with a large capacity, multiple points of contact so you can keep it steady while you're trembling and have an easier time aiming. That's an AR-15 or a pistol caliber carbine. A high capacity semi-auto handgun is bare bare minimum for home defense. Shotgun is better if you're well trained. Semi-auto rifle or PCC best. You can spaz 10 shots out & still have 20 in the mag once you calm down a bit.

I have to say I'm impressed that the prof. didn't have an agenda. He was light hearted and not the angry, leftist types that I encountered when I attended UC Berkeley, where I was a rhetoric major. The worst grade I got in my major was a B- in Rhetoric of the Bible. I was the only student that made any orthodox biblical arguments and was extremely well versed in scripture. In Advanced Argumentation, my leftist, liberal lesbian professor said she was going to give me a D after I argued against abortion. I told her if she gave me a D I would file a complaint with the campus ombudsperson, so she gave me a C-. Frankly I deserved an easy A as I was well educated on the subject and was a member of Operation Rescue. The best grade I received was in Rhetoric of Poetry. In that class I pretty much kept my mouth shut so that the professor wouldn't know I was (and still am) a constitutional conservative. Our entire grade was based on one paper. Mine was 40 pages long and was titled: "The exploitation of women in 17th century poetry. I got an A- in the class.

That is one extremely good professor. He's showing the students how to properly use critical thinking skills. When we are able to reason properly, it becomes more difficult if not impossible to be manipulated by others. Critical thinking skills are essential.

Actually rights are given. As in nature, you have none. You aren't guaranteed anything but death in life. A right is something guaranteed by a higher power, often on moral grounds. God gave you these rights because it IS right. Nature cares nothing for morals. That is why the founders said "that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness..." None are guaranteed by nature, only by a personal God. Current meaning: Dictionary Definitions from Oxford Languages · Learn more right /rīt/ noun plural noun: rights 1. that which is morally correct, just, or honorable. "she doesn't understand the difference between right and wrong" Similar: 2. a moral or legal entitlement to have or obtain something or to act in a certain way.

@@zackiebullock3614 None of those things define the term "right" as in your right to self preservation. 1. this is a synonym for correct. 2. this is a statement of position; the validity of a position or action. 3. physical manipulation. If a right is something guaranteed by a higher power, it can be taken away by a higher power, and thus it is not a right, it is a privilege. Your statement about moral grounds is an appeal to authority, and assuming that a god is what is moral and thus the authority for the right. The founders said "endowed by their Creator" but they did not say god. No where in the US Constitution does it say god. Claiming that a god gave you your rights because they are right is circular. Is the right valid because a god said it is valid? Then it is not a right, it is a privilege. If a god says that the right is valid because it is already valid, then a god is not required. You have the right to believe in a god if you so choose. You also have the right to believe that your rights are derived from some other authority. My rights are inherent and not dependent on someone else to approve them. Unalienable means cannot be taken away. If your rights are granted by an external agent, they can be taken away. This contradicts the definition.

By that logic murder shouldn't be illegal, because laws will never stop murders from happening. Stop signs are useless, since people run them anyhow. Essentially you've made a case for no laws at all. Literally too much or too little of anything can kill. That's why we have laws controlling how most everything is used. Tap water? If you have enough, you have to build a fence around it. Bread? Well, you can makke your own bread at home, but if you start mass producing it there are rules controlling what you can put in there. Electricity? Again, you can shock the shit out of yourself in private, but if your use of electricity endangers others, there are laws governing how it can and can't be used. You want a special exemption for guns? They're just allowed to be completely out of control, unlike tap water, bread, and everything else we can name?

I have always said, let's pass a law that gives the controllers what they want. Then we amend a part that makes the bill only apply to them in a public register along with their home address and picture if they have advocated for the gun control or been affiliated like been part of a party that advocates for it in maybe the last 5 years. See how well they react to that, if it adds protection to society, they should have more of that protection first.

My favorite current anti-gun comeback to home protections is "So you've decided that your stuff is more important than their life."

The main point she neglected to bring up, when asked about restrictions on gun ownership, is the fact that criminals ignore ALL laws, including gun control laws, and it’s only law abiding citizens that are realistically kept from acquiring guns, leaving them at the mercy of criminals. Other than that, this young lady did an incredible job.

I wish my college experience would have been like this, where the professor is teaching critical thinking skills instead of preaching dogma. They’re supposed to teach you how to think as opposed to what to think.

The initial design of the American citizen was to be completely independent. To grow your food and use your land to produce the necessities of life. Not to sit on you thumbs and wait for a free handout. Independence means that YOU are the provider of your own safety, the protector of yourself and your family. Not the government and not the police. The purpose of government is clearly outlined in the constitution to provide for the common good and protect the borders AND to protect our individual constitutional rights.

Everything, including freedom. You don't need fighter jets, nuclear bombs, or military fatigues to fight against a tyrannical government. Also, remember that the vietcong didn't have the weapons and technology we did, the Taliban and Al Qaeda didn't have tanks or helicopters, and the American revolutionnaries didn't have warships..

I assume he’s left leaning but only because he’s a college professor. I’ve seen several of his podcasts casts and haven’t seen him making any statements that are solidly leaning either way - I think he does a good job of being impartial (never entirely possible but he does a good job of being fair) he will hold conversations based on reality and stats not how he what’s people to blindly follow. I feel we need more profs like him

I was thinking the same thing. He let all three of them speak and engage in a civil debate. That's what we used to have in this country: civil debates. There are too many people who are so emotionally attached to their beliefs that they won't even acknowledge someone who disagrees. The professor was fair to them but I thought he was trying to single out that young lady and embarrass her. He probably didn't expect her to handle herself as well as she did.

No idea if he is left wing or not, but if you happen to have seen a lot of this professor's videos he pushes back against a lot of left wing narratives. He has all sorts of students that advocate for all sorts of cliche ideas and he forces them to show their work and explain themeselves and most of them fall apart.

You've heard that liberal professors are pushing an agenda and you've probably seen phone recordings of a handful. Do you actually know what % of them are pushing an agenda? Is this a feeling or an assumption of abundance based on a few examples? When I went to college, I had professors tying themselves in knots to avoid showing any political bias. Out of the dozens of teachers, I only had one that looked and acted like someone that fell out of tantrum that Hillary lost meme. The most common political assertions I saw were in the science departments making fun of young earth creationism.

One day we will get a person that says “well actually we already have to have background checks to buy a firearm so not everyone can own a firearm legally and subsequently we have more gun violence now then before the government infringed on our God given rights to own a firearm and protect ourselves.”

She blew the opportunity to define an "Assault Rifle".

Big time. She 100% does not own an assault rifle.

The person ultimately responsible for your protection is you. Not the police; not the politicians. YOU.

government tries to sell us on tRusT uS. theyre selfish, also the cops dont even act. Uvalde, florida coward cop, etc. just another reason to protect yourself. and god forbid youre a vulnerable kid in 1 of the schools.

Can you imagine how many of the countries that were taken over by socialism and communism what would have happened if guns weren’t banned and confiscated before being taken over!

Hopefully y’all wake up and vote differently and get him out.

The answer to all of their questions should be "because our constitution has a 2nd Amendment, and it says I have the right to own one'.

Open dialogue....defuses so many issues. If every person could watch this and make a decision, no matter which way they go, it's immensely healthier than "guns are bad, amen". One sided rhetoric only divides...and that's just what they want right now

This gives me hope. Mad respect for a teacher letting the conversation happen in his class and to the students who were respectful enough to remain silent and listen.

We need more professors like him. A professor should strive for objectivity.

If she owns an assault rifle she has an FFL (federal firearms license) and pays a significant fee because assault rifles can fire fully automatically as opposed to one round downrange with each squeeze of the trigger. Neither AR-15 nor SKS (civilian version of AK-47) can do that.

Truth but, most people consider every gun (long-short- military style) as assault rifle.

Frustrating how non-Americans come to the U.S. (and are very fortunate) and expect our policies to reflect their country, not ours. Crazy.
