 Hey everyone welcome back. I hope you're all having a great Memorial Day weekend I think you're gonna like today's clip It's one of those rare occasions that CNN brings on an opposing point of view and he actually slams the media for their just Ignorance of basic gun knowledge and as you can expect the left-wing guest who's an editor over at mother Jones can't take it I always rely on you for coverage of gun issues What is the rest of the media need to do differently or what should we do to be better when covering this this beat this issue? Yeah, certainly. I mean, I think the very base level we need Better literacy of about guns about our gun laws how they work About the gun politics why people oppose these sorts of restrictions that you often hear called for in the media I don't think that there is even a base level of knowledge that that We have in our industry and I think a large part of that is not just You know bias that people talk about that is an issue But mainly there's no beat nobody covers this in our industry on a regular basis when there are events that happen like this What you get is reporters who are general assignment porters who don't have knowledge on the subject And that's where mistakes get made constantly. You're a smart motherfucker. That's right. Thank you This absolutely needed to be said because the media acts as if they hate guns so much that they refuse to even learn basic facts Which is odd right because they're constantly insisting that they're arbiters of the truth in reality They pathologically believe that by virtue of words coming out of their mouths It's automatically the truth But yes, the media refused to learn even the most basic facts Which is why they're constantly misusing phrases like assault rifle and assault weapon and military style We're gonna get right into the left-wing Mother Jones editor's response But first let me tell you about this free coin offer from double gold Alright folks now.

Yeah, okay, whatever You all blame mass shootings on everyone and everything, but the people who commit the act Why not blame the shooter or the complete failure of laws and law enforcement? Oh, right stupid me No political benefit to Democrats there back to the article if you manage to get through it You come to this line near the end quote rather than spark a national reckoning on the wreath and explosion and gunfails Including the assault rifles preferred by mass shooters It's an urban legend that never happened. Did you catch that he claims that assault rifles are preferred by mass shooters? Really what is an assault rifle an assault rifle is any of various intermediate range Magazine-fed military rifles that can be set for automatic or semi-automatic fire AR-15s Do not have the option for automatic fire a huge distinction. We have a vast Reptore of knowledge on this subject semi-automatic or automatic. They're the same thing wrong wrong wrong Facts matter, huh? Which mass shooting was an assault rifle used in mr. Veteran gun reporter? Good luck finding stats on mass shootings involving automatic rifles because it becomes quite clear that they're purposely muddying the waters with phrases like Assault weapons and assault rifles to make people think that scary looking black military style rifles are machine guns And there simply hasn't been any modern so-called mass shootings that used automatic weapons. She's right though Mother Jones has covered guns all this time But they've done so Inaccurately to a majority of people who don't own guns and don't know anything about them because of this They don't understand the laws and what the impact or lack thereof would be but a central view on guns is that most people Do not own a gun most people Overwhelmingly want universal background checks want red flag laws want to raise the age at a minimum For purchases of an assault weapon and a majority of people want to ban assault weapons So, you know, I think this is this this sort of shield of expertise that always comes up Oh, if you don't know that an AR doesn't stand for assault rifle Then you have no business talking about guns, but you know, of course, I'm not talking about needing an expert level of Education to comment on firearms I think what we have an issue in in our industry is that we don't very very rarely have even a base level even an understanding of the Difference between semi-automatic and automatic and these things matter significantly when you're trying to discuss policy Responses to this and trying to explain to the audience what they would actually do and what the impact would really be Exactly right and I think the truth is they intentionally remain ignorant because it helps them to mislead and deceive people Into eventually accepting a ban on all guns That's exactly why they use vague misleading terms like assault weapon because that can be applied to any gun They use a term like semi-automatic and most of people listening here machine gun. Guess what most guns are semi-automatic So the intention here is clear. All right. That's another one in the can I hope everybody enjoys their day with friends or family and takes a moment to realize that we have all of this Thanks to people who sacrificed their lives for people that they never know I hope you all enjoyed this one karate chop that like button and share this video Not only does it help the channel, but it spreads the truth remember to leave a comment and let us all know what you think Thanks a lot
