Jamie Raskin issues brilliant Second Amendment debunking

CLASS WITH JAMIE RASKIN episode 2: Jamie Raskin takes on the rightwing fallacy that the Second Amendment gives people the power to form private militias to resist federal tyranny and violently overthrow the government.
SUPPORT DEMOCRACY SUMMER: jamieraskin.com/democracy-sum...
00:00 Does the 2nd Amendment give people the right to overthrow the government with insurrections?
04:56 This interpretation of the constitution is an excuse for not passing gun reform
11:15 The constitution treats insurrection as a serious and dangerous offense
14:36 Forming a militia and attacking the government is unconstitutional and qualifies as treason
20:03 The constitution doesn’t even guarantee non-violent civil disobedience
24:34 Insurrectionists are not “hostages”
27:10 The 2nd Amendment is not unlimited
31:46 Q&A start
33:54 Our lone-wolf shooters are anything but a well-regulated militia
37:00 Why did conservatives change their tune in the last 15 years?
40:15 They say gun violence is due to “too many doors”
42:21 The say gun violence is due to a mental health crisis, but then do nothing about it
44:36 What is the upside to the NRA taking extreme stances against reform?
47:33 Closing message

    Where would Americans get the idea about overthrowing a government they thought was tyrannical? Perhaps they have also read the Declaration of Independence and saw the part that reads, "...it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government..." But I guess they were wrong to think the authors of the constitution would have created the 2nd Amendment without a single thought of a tyrannical government or the possibility such a government would ever exist, in America, that would actively work against the will of the people and become destructive to the pursuit of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. After all, the American Revolution was such a peaceful time in America's history. No wonder the founders of the Constitution forgot all about that and created the 2nd Amendment to preserve the right to go duck hunting with your 4-year-old. I'm not suggesting the Republicans are right. But neither is Raskin.

    Ill tell u something mabe Jamie knows mabe he dont ? But they say there are no coincidences . Well ive got a message tday , i have some gifts / channeling and its putting things together that some miss , ok ill lay it out short and simple . Trump come on seen when Obama did ( birth cert) then got elected by convincing ppl he wasnt part of the probs in this country which caught on with racist , fast forward to jared kushner $3 billion from saudis then jan 6th then stolen classified docos , then saudi sponsored golf tourny at marlago while docos were there , then all of the hitleresk rhetoric and trump talkn up dictators and sociopathic country leaders russia , then the hating of nato , and maga spreading tryn to defund cia / fbi after running on backn law enforcement , then take the fact why does ppl like putin an maga and dictators dislike nato ? And maga how they are all anti allies / nato . Why would someone on world stage want to remove or destroy allies and nato ? Ill tell you !! Selfish nefarious motivations . Then consider radical moves to remove books abortion banning wanting more births but less welfare ! To put extra strain on the already struggling systems in this country which maga hasnt stop doing even alittle , take the fact that radical groups like taliban and north korea and then add mega corporations $$$$ and tax breaks then after trump on tape sayn how nixon sold govnt docos for big $$ after being thrown outa office then the saudis clearly had a chance and almost certainly had a look at important docos , then trumps legal probs increasing then Netanyahu backing trump in many ways maga “ pretending to support Israel “ then all of the sudden hamas attacks Israel and war breaks out all while trump supporters legal matters were increasing all while maga reps in house backing one lie after another n not doing a dam thing for the ppl pushing for shut downs . It looks to me like a very very very strong move to start a “ world order “ by a conglomerate of sociopathic / psychopathic , leaders and occultist / followers very powerful ppl’s . I mean mega corporations price gouging the hell outa ppl in this country because biden threatening to remove tax breaks and raising minimum wage tryn to remove welfare . These are all dictator authoritarian hunger games level moves ! Imagine how a scenario like hunger games would occur ? . Take my word this is their aim ! Russia want Ukraine for more bodies in military and $$ and land but mostly for military might than anything he wants to destroy nato which i know has had their issues but on the world stage allies are crucial especially with militaries the size of china and russia and add radical islamist as a cooperative force with the sociopaths . Remember birds of a feather they flocketh together ! Maga is more like radical islam and kim jun un than anything like britains monarchy or alike ! Ppl that support maga around the world are all the same do as i say ! Not as i do ! They are controlling manipulating destructive forces ! Backed by very very greedy powerful ppl from around the world . Laugh if you want but i called out trump when i was a teen in the late 70s im 61 now . Im not cray cray haha it just fits all to dam well ! Im almost positive saudis got a look at many of them documents i know secret service was present on some level but they never come forth and said nothing bout them being there ;( secret service is supposed to secure entire property regularly why were these rooms never checked why did they not say anything bout the docos there ? Did they ? No reports of it ? Something is up something stinks !! There is no question maga has been doing its very very best to further destabilize us from multiple angles . @Briantylercohn and there is no question Radical Islamist, Putin and Kim Jung on and some of China’s leaders are sociopathic borderline psychopaths ! Not complete psychopaths

    Congressman Raskin had me at "I just want them to read it." That seems to be the biggest misunderstanding that magas and most republicans have regarding the second amendment. I'm 16 years old and the youngest of eight in my family. Both of my parents were in the military, as is my oldest brother. We have all been routinely educated on this issue, as well as the dangers of any firearm. My dad always makes sure his are locked up where not only we can't get to them (out of curiosity), but that we wouldn't want to even be curious. My mom did the same before she passed away. I'm glad to hear such a well thought out and accurate description of the terms of the 2nd amendment. Thank you to Congressman Raskin and to you Brian for bringing this to the attention of viewers.

    Same - that's the way I was raised. When I was in my early teens my dad got out his rifle and taught me how to use the scope to shoot, and how to use a handgun, and with some of the gravest seriousness he ever had told me that guns are for hunting only what you'll eat, or for self- defense, and to have the goal of never ever having to shoot a fellow human being. He said to never, ever, ever use a gun to intimidate anyone, and to never point one at someone unless there was no other option except to (excuse the bluntness) end their life to keep from being killed. People were to be treated in a way that represents who we chose to be, not how that person acts, and that we're all responsible for each other. That's, aside from an understanding of the 2nd Ammendment in full context, why Americans need to protect against radicalism whether it's white supremacy, anti-Semitism like were seeing in these river to the sea chants on college campuses, attacks on n Muslims and Asians, etc. When we look out for each other, the radicals stay on the fringe where they belong.

    Mitch McConnell broke his oath to the Constitution by putting party over country. This has been part of the division of the country as espoused by Trump and his Trumplikkkan Republican party. It was at the end of the Nixon administration and his Southern Strategy began division of this country. The Republican party of my youth has been twisted into a party which values guns, their party over the country, which has paved the way for a rise in fascism in the Republican party has continued to espouse views leading the the Disunited States of America, Mr. Trump has built on this to the point where he tried to overthrow our Constitution.

They are only there to do the people business period and not to write a bill against the constitution that the Supreme Court has to throw out later, you would be amazed at the bill they pass that is totally unconstitutional. If you can read all the information is on internet free to read and remember it your rights set up to Protect you from people that may get into the government and take it over. Raskin, is just one of many and no sorry you are not getting good information I know he believes what he said, and he could have taught to him, but that doesn't make it true. Don't worry, there are as many as Raskin on the other side.

    Brian, this addition of Class with Jaime Raskin is an outstanding addition to your podcasts and efforts to provide truth and logic to Americans. Raskins’ dedication to freely offering these moments to explain the TRUE MEANINGS & REASONING of the founding fathers is PRICELESS! As one who has been drawn to the concepts of fairness under the law,.. if applied with honest justice, I am so thankful to these lessons. Raskins’ clear, logical and obviously sincere wish to share his knowledge makes one wonder if a majority of the Supreme Court have really read and understood the 2nd amendment. Thank you for making such clarity available. These will be shared widely. And Brian, since you are also making Spanish language podcasts, I hopeyou will be able to have these classes translated. I am not Spanish but I have many Spanish speaking friends who need to hear this. They are not getting true information from republicans who only want their vote.

Jamie Raskin is a person that when he speaks, you listen and I always enjoy listening to him and find him to be a great inspiration when dealing with my own struggles.

Then after some decent results in the mid terms, he makes it clear he will run again and no one has the courage to push back. The Democrats have talent but are sleepwalking to defeat. Biden’s handling of the Gaza massacres has lost thousands of votes, even while people know Trump will be worse. The US and the world needs a fit, articulate and wise President who is not in his eighties and increasingly frail. Time for Biden and the Democrats to put country above party, because a Trump presidency will be horrific.
