Debunking gun control myths | Will Cain Podcast

[@briangraves5519]

All gun laws are infringements. Make no mistake about that.

[@donfronterhouse4759]

And that is unconditional, period. The gov has already made all kinds of exceptions that disqualify people already. We have the largest prison population in the world. When those people get out, regardless of their offense,in every state they are automatically disqualified from owning a fire arm. Millions of people. Is that right already greatly "infringed"?

[@rross27]

@@donfronterhouse4759 IMO if you are a felon, you have already infringed upon the rights of other citizens. Therefore, you forfeit some of your rights for a time by doing so. But we are all aware that criminals do not care about any laws in the first place. They will never give up their guns. If they have a firearm, they often obtain it illegally either through theft or by purchasing it from someone (another criminal) who is also breaking the law by selling it to them (depending on the laws of their state concerning the sale of guns).

[@ap8riot931]

The government's (by concept) only duty is to protect the citizenry and assist them during difficult times. They do have a right to review safety issues regarding guns carried into public spaces. We gave them the power to do that. However, in Constitutional law they are as subservient to the amendments as the people. They may claim words, meanings, semantics or intentions of the amendments were yada yada, but doesn't matter unless the people agree and allow them to move forward with legislation. If they are unilaterally making any change whatsoever to a Constitutional amendment, they are infringing and that is illegal and comes with severe legal penalties. This is because they are systematically (conspiring) to deny a group or persons their Civil rights. The substance of the Revolutionary War.

One thing I have to disagree with is when he said only women and kids hunt with the 223 unless it’s varmints. The 223/555 is a very good hunting round from coyotes, and hogs to even deer. I hunt with the 556 all the time and have always gotten a one hit drop with deer. It’s all about placement and which ammo you use. Soft points are great for hunting larger game like deer while hollow points are great for hogs.

These discussions are informative and interesting, but not necessary ones for 2A supporters IMO. The right to arms in the US is deeply, immutably fixed in our culture, is codified in our highest law, is multi-generational in its durability and considered sacrosanct by most US citizens. Any other arguments are giant, useless, endless, repetitive dismissals of the right that offer up the same weak-kneed alternatives or outright attacks on it, and made out of the same twisty blend of fact and fiction and jaundiced propositions bound by slippery tropes and half-baked logic; ones that try to wrestle the right to the ground -- or put it under it; ones that try to signal some holier virtue and appeal to "the people's safety", while dismissing the right, its importance and its history, all the while demeaning those who uphold it. The right to keep and bear arms, for me and those who support it, is just not up for discussion.

I would think that the right to bear arms inherently includes the right to shoot tyrannical people. The individual citizen was the law and order. This leads to a relatively polite law abiding citizenry. We have given too much to the criminal element. I understand low level crime, although it is crime. But why do we keep people alive who will never be functional members of society? The current crime wave requires people to defend themselves. When they do the legal and criminal scrutiny of the victim for defending themselves is outrageous. We don't need nor desire brutal thugs roaming our streets. We should celebrate and thank people with the nerve to defend themselves.

[@skookapalooza2016]

When Joey refers to "black powder", he is most likely, for the layman who knows little to nothing about firearms, describing the color of the gun powder. Because, gun powder, in general, is black. However, gun powder is normally classified by the coloration, or lack thereof, of the smoke it produces when burned inside a cartridge casing, within the chamber. There are two different classifications: Black Powder & Smokeless Powder. Black powder was utilized in firearms from the beginning, hundreds of years ago...until, 1884. In 1884, smokeless powder was invented, but took some time to gain acceptance. So, practically, by 1890, or so, smokeless powder (nitro-cellulous) had, for the most part, replaced black powder in NEW firearms. Smokeless powder, in general, cannot be safely used in firearms designed to use only black powder. So, today, some antique firearms, and modern reproductions of the same antique firearms, still use black powder, or, a modern black powder substitute (like GOEX). By & large, the overwhelming majority of modern firearms, use smokeless powder.

[@pitchforkpeasant6219]

Muzzleloader hunting still exists. Barely. Between no more goex, lack of percussion caps or 209 primers, and the almost pointless existence of subs in flintlocks... Add that to the lead bans. I have a flintlock but with the less than 1% lead, then youre stuck with other metals requiring either sabots or double patching smaller caliber rounds. Politicians are killing every single aspect of firearms. Its a multidisciplinary attack on firearms and any and all uses including conditioning people to see themselves or their loved ones as ending up on the wrong side of a firearm. Now the left is pushing the narrative of the right wanting civil war against the people and their loved ones. Multidisciplinary

The constitutional right to bear arms in public for self defense is not “a second-class right, subject to an entirely different body of rules than the other Bill of Rights guarantees.” McDonald, 561 U. S., at 780 (plurality opinion). We know of no other constitutional right that an individual may exercise only after demonstrating to government offic-ers some special need. That is not how the First Amendment works when it comes to unpopular speech or the free exercise of religion. It is not how the Sixth Amendment works when it comes to a defendant’s right to confront the witnesses against him. And it is not how the Second Amendment works when it comes to public carry for self defense. New York’s proper-cause requirement violates the Fourteenth Amendment in that it prevents law-abiding citizens with ordinary self-defense needs from exercising their right to keep and bear arms. We therefore reverse the judgment of the Court of Appeals and remand the case for further proceedings consistent with this opinion. It is so ordered. Supreme Court of The United States of America, 2022

[@hughjorgan2017]

In the absence of any evidence tending to show that possession or use of a sawed off shotgun has some reasonable relationship to the preservation or efficiency of a well regulated militia, we cannot say that the Second Amendment guarantees the right to keep and bear such an instrument." Supreme Court, 1939. Change out sawed off shotgun with any modern weapon, and there ya go. What the hell happened since then? All logic, reason, common sense, and the second amendment have been thrown out the window and we now know with 100% certainty that every lunatic out there is armed without any differentiation between them and responsible gun owners.

Loved the show guys! CORRECTION: the AR-15 is a rifle/carbine that can be chambered in a wide variety of calibers. 5.56 NATO /.223 Remington is vastly more common than others, but 300AAC BLK, .458 SOCOM, 6.5 Grendel…LOTS of calibers can be chambered in the AR-15 platform. These additional cartridge options allow the platform to be suitable for hunting every size and shape of wild game.

[@backcountyrpilot]

A few corrections: The NFA which requires a $200 tax to own a machinegun, SNR, SBS, Silencer or AOW was enacted in 1934. FOPA enacted May, 1985 prevented the sale of machine-guns manufactured after that date to be sold or transferred to civilians A .223 round is a smaller caliber, but used much more powder, and normally a longer than a 9mm handgun. It is definitely more powerful than a 9mm, but much less powerful than most rifle rounds, such as .308, 30-06, .762, etc. Blackpowder is not used in cartridges.

[@dyjital]

Black powder can be used in .38 Special…. 45-70…

[@OldSolidSnake]

To defend him, I think he said "black powder" to simplify it to non-experienced people that aren't knowledgeable in firearms. Now, when they talked @ 40:00 mark, yes, the 5.56x45/.223 is way more powerful, because of velocity. The bullet, going that fast, will create a bigger temporary and permanent wound cavity from the sheer shock of the velocity of the bullet. The temporary wound cavity can rupture surrounding organs, arteries, veins, and other tissue. Also, when they talk about the different types of bullets @ 44:32, a FMJ (full metal jacket) would most likely go through if it doesn't hit bone, but the soft tipped bullets will do more mushrooming and/or breaking apart, due to the softer tip... When they talk about the AR-15 being "less lethal" then the bigger calibers, shot placement is a big factor, rather than the gun and/or bullets alone..

well mostly right AOW 5 dollar stamp on a transfer , and 22, 32/20 .38 all were black powder among many other case cartridges'

Black powder can be used in cartridges. Its just not as powerful. A 10 mm 170 grain bullet using 20 grains 777 3f has low 800s fps and will cycle. But nowhere near as powerful as smokeless.

As to "Weapons of War", the AR15 was SPECIFICALLY redesigned to be different from the rifle sold to militaries. Most other firearms haven't. Citizens can legally own a m1911, the exact weapon if war the military used from. 1911 to 1985. The Beretta 92 us exactly the military weapon that replaced the 1911 until like 2020. The Beretta can be found and purchaed at any gunstore. The Beretta was replaced with the Sig p320, released to the public BEFORE adopted to the military. Muskets were used for decades, they are legal to own, as are single shot rifles in military calibers. Revolvers? Yep, used by the military. Repeating magazine fed rifles in much more powerful rounds than the 5.56mm of an AR15, were used in the m1 Garand. The Springfield m1a is EXACTLY that weapon of war. The weapons of war arguments are BS, because even fully automatic Thompson Submachine guns were legal for civilians sbd and still are, to own. Shotgun?

[@chrisyork2376]

I like the what 2nd guy is saying, but there are a few things I'd like to polish up a little. 5.56 vs 9mm, propellant and maybe cartridge... Someone could argue that a typical 5.56 load has the potential for more damage than a typical 9mm based on muzzle energy. The "damage" any particular load can accomplish is dynamic and dependent on the delivery of the bullet and how/where it's energy delivered. If a 5.56 bullet passes through a target's thoracic but fails to expand, only partial energy is delivered and may not be a fatal wound. Conversely, if a 9mm landed in a thoracic cavity and dumped all of its energy it would deliver much more efficient damage with the possibility of a hydrostatic shock that drops the target immediately. The propellant we use today is called smokeless powder for most applications as opposed to old timey black powder and lastly I always understood a cartridge to be a complete loaded round composed of a cartridge case, primer, propellant and bullet. I'm totally behind the pro 2a thing and I believe the more accurate we can be, the less room there is for discussion.

Ironically it's cannons that are unregulated lol

[@maverickpaladin4155]

No offense to your 2nd guest Joey, but he's got a lot of factual errors. The NFA, passed in 1934, established a registry of: 1. firearms capable of automatic fire, 2. short barrelled rifles, which have a barrel length of less than 16 inches (SBR), 3. short barrel shotguns, which have a barrel length of less than 18 inches (SBS), 4. silencers, 5. firearms which fall into a category known as "any other weapon" (AOW). On 19 May, 1986, the registry for automatic weapons was closed, meaning no more automatic weapons could be added to the registry. This is why legal automatic weapons are so expensive. Cartridges have propellant (powder or gunpowder), but not necessarily black powder. Black powder is an antiquated propellant. Smokeless powder, invented in 1886, is a more modern propellant. At the risk of sounding nerdy, this is a very important distinction. What makes a rifle bullet more devastating is velocity. The bullet creates both a temporary stretch cavity and a permanent wound cavity. These are far more effective in stopping a threat from a high velocity rifle round than they are pistol rounds. Energy is a product of the velocity and the weight of the bullet. This, along with proper shot placement, is what puts down an aggressor. Finally, regarding gun control legislation, the reason most gunowners and 2A proponents are opposed to ANY additional gun control legislation is that the gun control crowd inevitably asks us to "compromise" our rights for some ostensible measure of increased safety. This safety is always temporary and never quantifiable. A year later, if not sooner, they're back expecting additional compromises. The problem is they never give anything. They may not take as much as they wanted, but they always take something. We in the 2A community are tired of surrendering more and more of our rights, all while those on the gun control side refuse to prosecute criminals (the true "weapons" in need of control) and continue to push for greater reduction of our rights. Sorry...no sale! We aren't compromising anymore.

And he misunderstands what select fire is. While I respect his service and sacrifice, his part of the interview should have been edited out.

[@margierasmussen3354]

Thank you, I enjoy this very much.

[@RobinP556]

Charles C. Cooke was great as was your 3rd guest, but the one that got the most time, Joey, didn’t have a clue what he was talking about. He got fact after fact wrong and while I have great admiration for his service and his sacrifice he desperately needs to learn what he’s talking about before being interviewed. For example, the NFA was enacted in 1934, not sometime in the 1920s, and at the time that it was enacted it included SBRs, SBSs, machine guns, silencers and a broad category called Any Other Weapon. It was amended a few years later at which time .22 caliber rim fire rifles were allowed to have barrels as short as 16” and again in 1963 when the same was applied to all rifles, finally in 1986 it was amended to cut off the supply of new machine guns. He did not understand the term “select fire”, thinking that it only applied to burst fire weapons, when in fact it applies to all firearms with more than one mode of fire (semiautomatic, burst, full auto). That’s just a couple of examples, but he got so many facts wrong that it was absolutely cringe worthy from the moment that he started to speak until he stopped speaking.

[@bullybrutusandrob393]

It’s not the citizens it’s the criminals go after them ..

[@bobsacamano8187]

It’s pretty simple. What is the “Right” enshrined in the Second Amendment? It literally says “the right of the people to keep and bear Arms”. THAT is the “Right”, the right to keep and bear arms. Next, who is the “Right” afforded to? Again, it clearly says “the right of THE PEOPLE”. It doesn’t say: the right of the MILITIA, it says “the people” It goes on to say “Shall not be infringed”, which is not necessary. Not necessary because that’s the reason for enshrining the rights in the first place was to ensure they weren’t “infringed”. Not necessary, but added for emphasis. Lastly, the beginning, “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State”, was also unnecessary. It was a qualifier to provide a justification for the right. Not necessary, and also not the ONLY reason the right was important, it was just the most obvious, since they had just fought a revolution.

[@Highlander111172]

New Class III weapons were banned for sale to civilians in the Hughes Amendment of 1986. So any full auto weapons manufactured before 1986 are still allowed to be transfered.

[@Vinlaell]

He was in the military right? Yes an AR does more damage and no rounds don't have black powder...

[@alancranford3398]

One fail point for background checks is the difference between retail and wholesale. Police background checks take a minimum of six months and can last three years--and need to be periodically re-investigated. How many cops go bad or were bad and still passed background checks? There are a number of famous federal officers who passed all of their checks and then wound up in prison. Background checks are no silver bullet.

[@byronwilliams2122]

there is a section in the National Rifleman magazine called the Armed Citizen . it is a collection of news paper clippings of citizens defending themselves and others from criminals .

[@JohnMelland]

I've been a gun guy since 6. Bows and arrows too. My favorite gun is a shotgun. As a poor person, it's an all around tool. Firearms are for the people to protect themselves from the government, foreign enemies, and others in private encounters. I hope to own a 12 gauge semi auto someday. I have a.22 Cal rifle in mint condition from 1965. No serial number but model number.

[@robertroderick4933]

I think its fascinating that a brit understands the 2nd amendment better than 50% of Americans. It is clearly stated what the second amendment means. They even put the proper punctuation in to separate the 2 thoughts written in the 2nd amendment. It clearly states the right of the PEOPLE to keep and bear arms. To say those arms couldn't be what weapns we have today is ludicrous, they had weapons that fired at rates as high or higher than what we have today.

[@Jerryo950]

Excellent conversation. 👊

[@ReffreyS]

The AR-15 is not an assault rifle. It is a sporting rifle. The legal definition of an assault rifle is a rifle that fires more than one round per trigger pull, which the majority of civilians do not own.

[@the2ndprotectstherest582]

Joey, the 2A does not give me my right to self defense or how I chose to arm myself. It simply recognizes that I was given they right by my creater and the 2A says government can't take it away.

[@RobinP556]

In addition to that he got the NFA and FOPA wrong, misunderstand what select fire is and doesn’t know what black powder is. That part of the interview was truly cringe worthy.

[@FlymasterFlash]

Spot on... it really is that simple. Our founders recognized our God given right to defend ourselves. The 2nd amendment does not grant us the right, it was to prevent the government from infringing on our right.

[@ArtbyCannell]

Charles is very smart!

[@restlessascension3260]

Very informative thank you very much

[@growl326]

Dang, I don't mind fox news but this is by far the most educational thing I've ever seen on it. Get it Will.

Shall not be infringed.

[@warrenfrazier6996]

Will I have hunted with a 7mm magnum. It is a bolt action rifle. I have made a quart mike shot on an antelope. The 7mm magnum will shoot through protective vests. In hand guns the type of bullet used determines how it punches holes in things. A Hollow point will mushroom out to make a bigger hole in the person at the same time it makes the Hollow point less likely to pass through the person. Full metal jackets on round allow them to pass into and through people since it is less likely to deform. So you have 3 points to consider in postal rounds, size of the bullet, type of the bullet e.g. Hollow point, full metal, or just lead, and third is powder load. For example a 357 can shoot 38 rounds, the only difference is the 357 has more powder pushing the bullet out of the weapon, hope I informed you more, it seemed you guest was not pointing out what have mention. Thanks Scott

[@thomasblackburn3953]

Bloody brilliant!

[@johnstephens2997]

Excellent post!

[@IDK_what_TO_call_IT_]

That's not what 'select fire' refers to. Select fire refers to having the option of selecting simi or fully automatic. There are firearms that also add 2, 3, or 4 round burst options in between those simi and fully selections.

[@RobinP556]

Select fire, 2 or more modes of fire. Joey got a lot of things wrong. Honestly, his part of the interview should have been edited out completely.

[@gazoomj]

The most common expression of communalism is in everyday beliefs. These routinely involve religious prejudices, stereotypes of religious communities and belief in the superionty of one's religion over other religions. This is so common that we often fail to notice it,even when we believe in it. 👍👍👍👍👍
