Right lmao. I support the second amendment but you gotta be more thorough with the background checks and getting illegal guns out of circulation. How few people agreed was a bit disheartening

How could you make it harder? Most people that buy guns from a gun store, private owner or gun show usually are not trying to get a ghost gun to go shoot up the local market. And zip guns are made every day inside max security prisons. They aren't pretty, but a lot of them work just fine. Take some time and think what someone on the outside could do with a small milling machine or 3D printer. They would be millionaires the day after guns are over regulated or outlawed. True gunsmithing is an art, but you don't have to be an artist to make functioning weapons of ANY type. And if you're not skilled enough to produce your own or just don't want to take the time do so, you can always go down to the corner and buy a hot gun. The point is that it's nearly impossible to try to regulate something that you can make in your basement. And criminals will forever do bad things regardless the law. Making it harder for people to defend themselves, and possibly others, would be a bad joke on every lawful gun owner. Don't fear the gun. Fear the azzwhole holding it.

Araceli From Wii sports club “I support the second amendment” *wants to infringe the second amendment*

Jimmy C it’s literally just have more mental health studies, heavier background checks and yearly inspections/shooting classes. It’s actually not that hard. People just don’t wanna think hard enough. In most places you can just walk in and get a gun that day, the point is to not make it THAT easy. You have to have your mental health tested, have your background checked thoroughly and do the yearly checkup just like we do with drivers license. Most people would have to wait would be a week.

@@Both-Barracuda i didnt own a gun until the riots started. I drive through a major city for work, when the protests started i seen people being assualted in the streets and in their vehicles. I bought a gun to have while im on the road. Recently meth has been a growing issue in my community, so i got another one for the home. I have a family, im in the mountains, it could be a 5, 15, 25 minutes before police arrive and i may not have that kind of time to wait. On top of that we have bears so yea.

I carry a gun so I'm more likely to have the one up on someone else who threatens to harm me, myself or my property that Ive slaved to have. It's about preservation. Preservation of my life and it's associated happiness and comfort. Anyone that wants to try and take that should think twice. Anybody who would allow another person to take what they work hard for are losers in my opinion.

There you’re answer your not an American so worry about your country and stop sticking your nose into other country business. Because you egotistical clowns are gonna say “well my country has this” or “ban it because I’m offended”. So please sh*t up

I am an American born and raised. Growing up I was a supporter of Gun Control. There was a time when I believed that no one needed an AR-15 my Dad took me to the range and we shot his new AR. I then learned more about it and gun control's history the statistics and my opinion changed. I am a 2nd Amendment advocate for all not just citizens of the United States, but for everyone.

I heard that even pepper spray is banned in Singapore because it can also be used as a weapon. I did know somewhat that Singapore is considered safe but not that safe. Which I think is cool and life is so much more enjoyable without the fear of getting shot everywhere at any given moment. I am from Croatia and my country is pretty safe too. It was even named alongside Slovenia to be one of the safest places at night...especially for women, which is dope. And as a woman I can agree. I can walk in the middle of the night alone without fear...well the only thing I could be afraid of is the darkness itself xD

As a brazilian, I don't feel safe at all, even if it's illegal to own a gun in my country. Criminals still have them and there are still mass shootings at schools all the time. People can't help but feel frustrated that bad guys can use them and all you can do is scream and run, or be really still and allow them to do whatever they want with you.

@Shaniya Straight we already have that set in place! If you don't know this, then that means you've never purchased a firearm before. Educate yourself.

@@richardcannon6227 obviously we already have regulations set in place. i don’t have to own or buy a gun to know this. it’s pretty much common sense. i’m saying there needs to be MORE restriction. while background checks are held up to standard by law, mental health reporting laws vary from state to state, and this is one of the many loop holes where a gun can end up in the wrong hands. and yes guns can be obtained illegally and will continue to do so, but our government and we as the citizens of this country need to continue to add these restrictions bcuz one less gun in the wrong hands will end up saving many lives.

The homicide rate in California is still 500% higher and in Illinois it’s 900% higher than New Hampshire. Jubilee shared only population numbers, not per capita deaths, which are the numbers that compare apples to apples.

I hate statistics in online videos. They're always limited in what they can show and are picked specifically to promote the agenda of one side or the other. You can prove statistically that the US having more guns makes for more gun violence (more shootings in US than elsewhere)(this can also be debated as most places that are considered to have more gun violence dont track it like the US does) while simultaneously showing that banning guns yields more gun violence (Chicago, DC, NYC having overwhelmingly more shootings than anywhere else without gun restrictions) Don't assume stats prove the point for either side. They're just supporting evidence and often manipulative.

@@novatare yes, yes i did

jc most american comment section ever ahmed isn't even insulting yalls country y do u guys immediately take it personally

Banning guns doesn't stop violence. The reason why 2nd Amendment advocates like me tell people to arm themselves is because we want every law-abiding citizen to be able to use the most effective tool to protect themselves. Even if there were no guns whatsoever within America, violence would still exist. The UK still has violent crime, the criminals use knives and it is an extreme problem there. According to the CDC there are approximately 500,000 to as high as 3,000,000 self defense uses with a firearm within the United States. The majority of mass shootings happen in gun free zones. The attackers specifically target gun free zones knowing that it is likely that no one will have a gun to stop them. We already had an "Assault Weapons" ban from 1994-2004 it had a sunshine clause in which the DOJ concluded that the ban had no effect on stopping gun violence.

Guns are designed to attack AND defend human life. Double edge sword like many things in life unfortunately.

Thankfully have a couple of firearm' to protect me from danger. If I got robbed it was being burglarized I would have something to protect me with instead of just waiting for the police while the suspect is already gone. Plus I live to see you or take my guns away if so have knives too

Ban scissors

For me , think about my one of my former first grade students who broke into my locked classroom during his lunch period (he thought the classroom was empty). I think about my colleagues who have had their locked closets broken into and money stolen out of their purses (all elementary school teachers btw). Have a gun in my classroom? Absolutely not. I have nothing against owning a gun but having it in the classroom is a liability I want nothing to do with.

I just think about a few of my older teachers.. Give them a gun and if they ever have to use it, two in the floor, one in the ceiling, three more somewhere down range and probably nowhere near the actual target. Especially under immediate threat. Its not a good idea. These are educators not police. Hell, cops don't even react well many times so obviously the training the U.S. currently requires is not adequate. Introduction of firearms to all classrooms is a non-starter for me.

Arthur Pilgram - hard to say when it comes to armed police officers in schools. Personally, as an educator, I wouldn’t have a problem with it. That being said, I work in NYC in a title 1 school. Many of our students have extreme behavioral challenges. We also have a high population of special needs students. Furthermore, a large portion of our school community distrusts the police and it could wind up being a recipe for disaster if you get an officer who doesn’t know how to speak to children or their families. Even worse if the officer doesn’t know how to deal with special needs students or recognize the difference between rudeness and a manic episode. The officer would need to be someone friendly with a very small ego and excellent deescalation strategies, which can be difficult to come by and even more difficult to advertise for. Edit: forgot to mention, as a parent myself, I would be 100% okay with an armed officer in my children’s school. But that’s just me and, for the sake of playing devil’s advocate, I know many families who feel differently.

Teachers don’t become teachers to carry guns they become teachers to teach

That’s definitely a competence issue

I mean I don't think it should be that absurd. They are adults in a school full of children, those children are their responsibility, they should be able to protect those children just in case a WCS happens. Whether that be a natural disaster, shooting, or even a simple fight

Blank it is though, teachers are there to teach not to shoot down intruders. In my state we have at least one bodyguard at all of our schools so they are the ones who need to protect. Bodyguards and Teachers are two entirely different job titles and unless someone is teaching you about defense the two should never correlate.

Blank it’s a lil absurd schools would either have to pay for the firearms and ammunition or have the teachers buy it themselves and schools are constantly loosing funding id say a better idea is to just have armed guards or police officers on campus rather then have teachers be armed

Blank we can’t even trust our police officers being their job to protect our communities how we suppose to trust teachers whose job is to teach n deal w kids all day. tbh some teachers cant even deal w their emotions from marriage, kids, family. srry love my teachers but its just facts srry ☹️

@@aw8951 thank you I’m sick of these anti police and anti military dumbasses

I think that perspective. It’s true but I would say that it can help. I think it a lot more complex. I think of it as a cause and effect. There so many factors that would come of it. I think people bring it up because they feel like at one point their mental health should not have gone to that state that they would do something horrific. Also people want to have a reason to understand how something like this could have happen.

how's that victim-blaming? most school shooters have been bullied, it doesn't justify it, however in a lot of scenarios a lot could have been done by the person's community that would have prevented it. it's just the truth.

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

@@katinkaaa2951 it’s victims blaming because most of the time the victims don’t even know who the shooter is or what their reason is. It just implies that it’s the victims job to be nice to stop shootings when in reality mental health is so much more than that. And I know it’s not what they mean but no ones deserves to die just because they didn’t know it was someone’s birthday.

It’s the truth. You’re ignoring it

Yeah agreed. Weird how everybody had a connection to guns. I’m from the US (a liberal part but still) and I don’t know anybody that has a gun.

Caroline Love you do you just don’t know that they have one, unless you’re living in Commiefornia.

Caroline Love same, only people that i know of that own guns are actual hunters

@@carrielee1624 Most people who own firearms in a hyper liberal area wont tell you. Unless you're a part of that community or show interest will they show themselves.

Do you know anyone who has been sexually assaulted or abused? is it normalized if most people say yes? If you're going to apply one form a logic, make sure its compatible with the rest. Otherwise you're left with intellectual dishonesty.

That doesn't even make any sense

It's not our job to provide you the education on guns that you willingly deprive yourself of by never doing any research.

Why? If you had a teacher that was ex-military, or had the training of such, would it be bad? Most mass shootings happen in gun free zones.

sneaky stepdad honestly I can’t think of any of my teachers having the will to shoot one of their own students. Probably 90% teachers would not be able to shoot someone they have taught and known.

I carry and I teach. I promise with everything that is in me that if I am EVER in a classroom and a shooting takes place I will die for your kid. I will be a human shield for each and every student, BUT if I could I would like to live too. Missouri has armed teachers, it has never had a school shooting. I would like a chance, as a human I feel I deserve a chance.

i'm american and decently pro gun i suppose but i don't trust my teachers with any firearms

They don't want restrictions on their precious guns. They even have the AUDACITY to say there isn't a gun violence problem in America but a mental health problem. In 2019 alone, there were 366 mass shootings in America. Now compare that to Countries that banned or have very STRICT gun laws and see the statistics for yourself. The problem is CLEAR as day and people need to understand that

For me I feel like if someone would of used a knife they would of killed less people not just because physically. Stabbing someone is way more personal and u have blood on ur hands then just watching someone collapse from a bullet

SouthEast Dusty but with knife crime not as many people are affected because you have to get in close proximity to the victim, yes attacks do happen but not to the extent that shootings do

@@cabdirahman9000 Can I have your sources please? I want to see where you got this information.

@@maddie297 knife crime happens a lot more than you think and it can get to a mass shooting degree of violence, in england it's one of our biggest problems along with acid attacks. there are other places in the world other than america and a blanket statement such as that cant be used in this context.

Problem is the conversation was Pro Gun vs Victims, and not Pro-Gun vs Anti-Gun. They're tangently related, but it just turned into a pro-gun discussion, which is probably different than what people expected.

@@mendo1522 that’s fair. Perhaps they will do Pro Gun Vs Anti Gun in the future if they haven’t already. I watch a lot of these and sometimes the people featured are just there to demonize the other side, but it’s refreshing to get the episodes where real common ground is discovered and disagreements are kept informative and respectful

@mendo1522 you can't have a proper pro gun and anti gun debate because the dumbshits who are anti gun know zero about firearms to begin with. 99% of them believe that the ar 15 is an "assault" weapon.

Oscar it’s called questions so they can see our side of it

I would want to see that if it was focused on specific political groups and the US government but I don’t want it to end up generalizing all americans

@T K but why? Who cares what we Americans have to say? Why does it matter that other people can ask us questions or not? I dont see a point to it whatsoever

Oscar the point is exactly that the societies in other countries is extremely different. I think it would be interesting to see if some of the Scandinavian ways could give another perspective on this topic when compared to America. I also think people (like myself), from a non-violent country, with no sight of a gun, have a lot to say - that could add to the topic. And yes, the show is “based on America’s social phenomena” but it is viewed by subscribers all over the world and this could increase the number of viewing countries even more.

@Oscar It's about introspection. It is essential to see yourself in a way you probably hadn't considered before, hear how other people do things, to be able to evaluate yourself. The way others perceive us can tell us a lot about ourselves. I think not wanting to self-evaluate and not wanting to expand their worldview are honestly the biggest flaws Americans have.

I know!!

Right! I mean sure, it is caused by mental health problems and all that, but you can't always go straight to the root of the problem. Why not attack the issue on all fronts? Improve health care and education while limiting guns at the same time.

USA is so weird.....

@T K He's saying it's not a problem. If we look at things like that, why not say we have a drowning problem, an Alligator problem, a car crash problem.

@@kpnomore8626 not really

Is their gun violence in Indiana?

Those who sacrifice freedom for a little bit of safety will get neither freedom nor safety. --Benjamin Franklin. Your country no longer has freedom of speech and is currently engaging in forcibly reeducation to anyone who speaks ill against current political leaders. You're also no longer allowed to protest certain things and can get jailed and fined even if you do it peaceably. Sadly though America isn't too far behind ya, especially if they succeed in slowly making it harder and harder to have a gun until no one does. Then the government is really unrestrained in what it can do since the citizens are defenseless. Our founding father's realized that the greatest threat to loss of life and liberty will ALWAYS be the government, not solitary psychopaths. And the reason we have so many mass shootings is because of the other side forcing places to be gun free zones which is where 98% of all mass shootings happen. Their policies are what is causing the issues in the first place.

There’s also more people in the state of California than there is in the entirety of Canada. It’s a numbers thing. More people=more danger.

​@@rachelnaisbett403it's not freedom to own a gun

@@Mole-Esther We must have very different definitions of what constitutes as freedom. How do you define freedom?

@@rachelnaisbett403 You've got some weird sources, cause that ain't the reality up north. This narrative you're spinning only exist in your echo chambers.

Do you know why schools are often the targets of shootings? It’s because the shooters know the security in schools is awful. It’s not difficult to understand, but the sad part is that few people think about that

@@datsko6339 That's not how it works.

Datsko right... and you know this because you’ve thought this out yourself or? ... Yes it makes perfect sense, let’s throw more guns into the mix and allow pupils and teachers to have them. *Everyone’s* safer now because *everyone* has one... Yeah I don’t think it works like that either. No it’s not hard to understand, it’s the first thing you would assume and then with some critical thinking you’d understand that mass shootings are ultimately suicide missions. So what do they care if someone is able to pull a gun back on them? They know going into it they will most likely end up dead or failing that behind bars for life anyway. They would still do it regardless, they have a death wish to begin with but putting more guns in schools when it just takes one to ruin countless lives is a pretty weak argument and actually a recipe for even worse than what one unhinged person could do.

To punish children

As a right to protect themselves and their students.

@Catharsis the whole and trump says is completely uncalled for i see more anti maskers at blm rallies than any trump rally

Johnny5's Don’t wanna be rude but proof? Do you have a vid or something comparing the two?

Would be funny if the antimaskers say masks suffocate people and the 3 pro maskers start wearing masks.

@Catharsis natural selection will take care of the anti-maskers

Mask prevent the spread, not the chance of get covid.

How tf do the two correlate? lol Imagine having to wait MONTHS to get help for your mental health because your healthcare is free 🤦🏽‍♀️

Also mental healthcare is not the same as needing a major surgery. Ya'll love to cite the whole "bUt iT TAkEs a LoNg TiMe iN cOuNtRieS liKE CaNadA" - failing to realize it's 2023 and i can talk to a therapist on my phone. It's not the same as needing a major surgery or something

@@dominoxheartsyouxnot Using "embarrassing" to describe that sorta behaviour is what's embarrassing. Use a WAY stronger word.

@@GrahamChapman using “way” when you could use a stronger word is what’s embarrassing. What are you 9 years old? Grow up

Yeah, exactly. For me it’d be interesting to see the same topic but (for example) americans vs europeans (not necessarily with mass shooting survivors or nra members.)

Nicolaus Volentius I get where you're coming from but isn't that a bit unsustainable? And sorry if you had to go through tough situations! It must be horrible being in sort of a constant fear :(

I agree. I would’ve liked to see both sides

It’s interesting to see that people who have survived mass shootings support guns though is it not?

That's probably why they never aired it, but they need something to show during COVID.

The NRA be like: Sandy Hook be gone. Like what the hell

I also didn’t understand that

ikr!!

There isn't a solid definition for mass shooting so how wouod you know if it does or not when the definition is argued upon.

I think that this is in reference to how mass shooting deaths are only about 2% of all gun related deaths, where a bit more than half of them are suicides. Normally when people say that they also mention that a big contributing factor is the lack of a strong mental healthcare system and the stigma that exist around it in the US that may not exsit in other countries.

Guns are the most popular choice due to culture. More lives are saved by guns than killed. The amounts saved are in the tens of thousands while casualties from shootings are in the hundreds. Take away guns and you screw law abiding citizens from defending themselves from every single other form of crime which are way bigger problems than school shootings ever was.

If you want gold standard gun laws look to the Czech Republic

@Harmony SAME. It could be a teacher who is so well descripted but we never know their intention. Who knows? If no other student is armed and there’s only a teacher who one, it’s officially scary to say the most.

So that entire policy is now off the table because of one singular mentally unstable teacher?????

@Harmony Like usual safety over liberty.

wrong

Countries like the UK, Switzerland, Scotland, Germany, and Australia look so good to live in on paper and everyone talks about those countries being so much better than the US. Is it just that they have less major problems? How even is life in European countries?

@@cat-uh8np There's no country without problems. I live in Italy. We constantly complain about everything, and rightly so. But honestly certain things about America make it looks like a dystopia. And I, for one, knowing them would never want to come live there. Seeing videos like this one or John Oliver's Last Week Tonight makes me truly shiver. Because in Europe (at least the western part) we may have problems like unemployment, slow bureaucracy, refugee crisis and some countries are in a bad financial state. But there are things we consider basic human rights: healthcare for everyone, workers' rights, public education and access to high levels of education without running into debts, public safety with very little to no risk to find yourself into a shooting, and less militarized and more sensible police. I think citizens are regarded with more respect in Europe than in America, governments of all political sides care more for the citizens' well being than in the US. Therefore politicians usually - but not always - have to pay more attention to what they say and what they do. And things like what recently happened in Texas, with the state freezing over and people lacking the power to survive the cold, are just inadmissible in western Europe.

@@prominent.quasar yeah that seems like similar to what I thought it was. The US has so many problems they need to fix and we’re behind on all of them. But every society has its problems and complaints. It’s just that the US never fixes those problems. Thanks on the insight!

@@prominent.quasar I‘m Italian too and you phrased this perfectly!

People conceal carry in the Czech Republic just as i do here in the states. Wtf are you talking about. People in some European country's can own actual machine guns which is illegal for me. So your pov is entirely subjective.

@@jameslegrand848 Middle ground isn't really reached in the video because there aren't two distinct arguments in the video. It isn't NRA vs anti-guns or pro-gun control, it's NRA vs mass shooting survivors who share most of the same views as the NRA members. It was definitely an interesting video in terms of being a discussion, but there was no real debate.

Hugo Armstrong it’s like all of them vs the one dude

As a British viewer that's grown up in a very different cultural approach towards carrying guns, I felt like this episode lacked proper diversity of thought. As has been said, these weren't really opposing sides - although I was surprised that they weren't more different. In the UK it isn't radical to believe that there shouldn't be guns altogether and I understand that the US might be different in that regard but there has been much more radical opinions on these videos previously. It was really frustrating to watch people talking about the "fun" of guns next to survivors and even for survivors to not be anti-gun. I understand that it is possible to have different opinions within a set of experiences. But I really do feel that this video didn't properly find any sort of middle ground because the views were not different and diverse enough.
