That’s not the crazy eye, just the sceptical eye. When you’ve earned the crazy eye I’ll let you know. :slight_smile:

Why, thank you kind sir.

One more for the night. The last one was a snide little guilty pleasure. This one is as serious as it gets.

The first thing I will suggest is that you need a RIFLE and a PISTOL.

It is too late for that, :slight_smile:

OK. I forgive you.

I will check all your videos next year…thank you.

I just want to put all the “assault weapon” stuff in perspective.

On average over the last 10 years, there are 358 murders committed with “long guns” (rifles and shotguns) per year in the USA.

Of these, the bulk are shotguns and “sporting rifles.” The number of murders commited with “assault rifles”, per se, is not reported, but appears to be about 30-40 deaths per year.

In comparison:

Poison: 8,600
Strangulations: 3,300

In short, it’s a complete BS non-issue.

Great video by Penn & Teller. My favorite line:

“You cannot stop insane people from doing insane things by passing insane laws.”

Thanks for posting it Jay!

So you’re saying we need government regulation over our hands…? You know, to prevent strangulation.

One of the most egregious crimes in America was committed by men using box cutters to crash jets into large buildings where people worked. That dwarfs all of the school shootings combined.

Should we outlaw box cutters?

Honestly, the gun control people are out of their freaking minds!

This. This. This.

These are the types of numbers that need to be repeated and repeated and brought to the forefront on the conversation repeatedly. This is what the beloved BS media does not report.

This means we will all need to wear sandals or velcro shoes since shoelaces could be a weapon.

Yes, and it’s your beloved left that is pushing this insanity. Are you proud of them?

This is an old video they’ve been trying to shut down for a while. Pretty much sums it up. IMO Mr. Johnson deserves a hell of a lot of respect just for speaking before these bastards without even so much as raising his voice.

A cool, calm, friendly warning from us to them:

Can you explain why the left is beloved by me? I don’t remember making any statements to imply that. I have also mentioned at least once I’m libertarian, are they in favor of velcro shoes?

What I’d say having lived in England 22 years of my adulthood, is that I did see that fox hunting on the news and it was just like the media reports things here: twisted and edited to convey the message they want.

Back then I did not realize what they were doing. It reminded me of that movie V for Vendetta.

The video about Hollywood actors: It only gets more hypocritical than that with that picture Sufiandy posted about Obama and his bodyguards.

Hypocrisy is just a normal way of being in our society.

Thank you for all these videos, Jay.

And I much appreciate and respect the courage of Mr. Johnson.

This is my contribution in video: it is long but noteworthy that he made this before the election.
No conspiracy overtones and just common sense prediction: though it matches up with the underlying conspiracy theorists.

It showed me you can just approach it from a common sense point without the paranoia and it still makes sense
( I was reminded also of things ZEB was saying before the election ):
