You'd think they'd destroy the tv with a gun...
I literally thought the EXACT same thing!
I'm not sure they're allowed. Likely violates FCC rules. Like how you see beer in commercials but never anybody drinking it.
mahoraner niall or they'd just turn it off 😂 poor tv
LoL
missed opportunity
If the NRA is going to destroy a TV and not use a gun then I don't understand what I'm supposed to sign up for.
its the lies that the media tells you(now i dont think they are ''lies'' like the nra tells you, i just think its the media not understanding terms like ''machine gun'' or ''assault rifle'' and just not knowing laws about guns and buying them
C'mon, everybody knows that a machine gun is a self targeting gun. What do you think "fully automatic" means?
SERiously. Miss opportunities much?
WTF are you babbling on about?
This is the best CZcams comment out there.
“I think that guy just slut shamed marijuana.”
Best quote I’ve heard all week.
Throwback to the time I accidentally bought a concealed carry vest. I still have it, but instead of a gun I carry a portable CD player
Sweet
*Tactically reloads CD player*
I had flask on my office desk filled with mouthwash. Subvert expectations, keep them guessing.
CD player? Probably with fake batteries containing suspicious powder!
Straight to jail!!! ;-)

Yup!

Wow really? Good for Roku I actually have one of their TVs.

"It's an AR-15. You may have heard about them on the news."
Indeed.
And it was a .22. Not even the regular caliber.
LOL :D
I mean are they for real? That is such a fucking sick thing to say
Philo o we must make AR-15s less comfortable to shoot!
Yeah, Philo o, if one bullet is a little puff of happiness, then 30 bullets fired must be sheer ecstasy!
I find it really weird that when they wanted to paint something for Natalie's baby nursery they could have just used paintball guns to make precise dot art, but they instead went, "What if we shot glasses of paint above blank canvases and pray that some of the debris falls on top of them?"
That's what I was thinking too. But the only guns they like are the ones that can murder anyone or anything.
Paintball guns are liberal pussy shit invented by the democrats to make kids think real guns are lame and parents think theyre too dangerous. Its the soy milk of guns.
(Or something, i dont know if righties still bitch about soy like they used to)
I find it indicative of their level of thinking
"Death is an undeniable fuel of life." sounds like something the Zodiac killer would say.
You mean Bob Murray?
Ted Cruz?
He/She/It/Them wrote things like:
I'm collecting their souls to reign over them in hell.
Or any character from Warhammer 40k.
Just sounds like a 90s edgelord quote.

“Love at first shot”
Sounds like a Brazzers title
Or like euphenism for premature ejaculation.

The best part about the TV sledgehammer thing is that the TV wasn't even plugged in, the stuff on the screen was added in post. So it amounts to some big guy with a sledgehammer looking pleased at himself for just breaking a random TV he owns that wasn't even showing any objectionable content at the time.
I didn't notice that
Was that Agent Caulson with the sledge hammer?
The NRA filed for bankruptcy, and it's not just the moral kind, either.
You know the NRA is evil when even the Batman who Laughs is against them
In good news the BS NY lawsuit to shut them down was struck down and the NRA will continue to live on.

Thank the New York state Attorney General Leticia James.
Brutal lmao

I'm not having a go at you guys, but rather at the conservative establishment:
I have to wonder if these guys have any fucking clue what Socialism is. Or Communism, for that matter! Maybe they believe that Socialism produces Gluten and that's why it's The Enemy!! It just seems like they use the word(s) completely out of place, using it as a catch-all for "bad thing that I don't like and that scares me!"
The sorcery! Remote controls are a liberal sham!
"Death is an unavoidable fuel for life" sounds like a quote a necromancer says before unleashing a bunch of flesh golems at a DnD party.
Nerd level = Boss!

Are we sure fucking Sauron didn't say that 😂
I feel like at least one final fantasy villian has said this before. was it gaius? i think it was gaius.
it's true though
Dexterity check, you step on a young beholders tenticle whilst it slumbers.
John Oliver is like if a little kid on a sugar rush learned curse words, and I love it.
"The world is scary and dangerous. Therefore the idea of people selling bags meant to hide guns in them makes me happy and excited."
Terrific logic.
Makes me so angry that they didn't shoot the TV. No, they hit it with sledgehammer?
I r o n i c
the name of the sledgehammer is "truth", their strongest weapon.
It's an homage to an old Apple Macintosh commercial from 1984.
Lorien 77 doesn’t matter. Who the hell cares about a 36 year old apple commercial. Shooting the tv would have been way better.
Morgan: Elvis Presly used to shoot his TVs when he saw something on them he did not like. Good enough for the king should be good enough for the NRA.
12:23
“They shot paint”
Hmm, if only there was some sort of semi automatic gun with the capability of shooting paint, maybe even in spherical form, directly instead of shooting a can of paint onto the ground.
yea... like a... paint gun? hmm...
Julian Bell Forbidden knowledge
Odin Lawson I think you are on to something there see if airsoft is willing to invent and sell this paint gun contraption.
Poor Ol' Paint! They took 'im out in that thar field an' shot him!
And nintendo could make a game off it. Maybe like paint squadron?
Why did it take me two years to realise that paintball guns exist?
Why didn't the people who make gun tv shows realise that for their baby art?
Because you were to busy playing video games
Because paintball gun doesn't use pew pew powder
Because Smith and Wesson doesn't make paintball guns
Because paintball guns can't kill people.
It's amazing to me how they demonize a plant while at the same time promoting lethal weapons

It is a pretty hideous bag, tbh.
Don't you just love when the video you made is beautifully dated that the irony hits you in the face, first NRATV goes the way of Quibi, and now the NRA itself has filed for bankruptcy
And probably will be blocked from fleeing to Texas by the New York AG
‘Because Death is an undeniable fuel of life.’ Sounds like a villain from a Poundland Fantasy Novel. It’s that ‘look at me, I’m profound’ language that anyone who has read an art student’s first novella will be used to.

This is obscene. To a European, those commercials look like an episode of black mirror.
All the times I've watched this, and still no one has told that poor Navy Seal that carrying bag technology allows for strap length adjustment.
That's all I can ever think when I see that clip. Watching that bag swing around at knee length, thinking: "WTF, did he never have to adjust a backpack in his life?"
@@spuriouslathos2518 it might have been that in the movie they had it at that length and we’re trying to be closer to the movie than actually being intelligent about robbing a bank
@@lolafendetti970 how am I giving them credit for seeing if they could do it with the specific bag and weight and movements
@@spuriouslathos2518 it appears he’s forgotten his entire time in the military. One of the first things you need to learn is how to carry a bag without it tripping you. Why is it one of the first things: because it’d be real humiliating for the US if a poor shmuck were to pull a Don Rassow and land at a terrorist’s feet wouldn’t it?
It just makes me feel like he's late for the bus 😅
Now, as of June 26th, 2019, NRA TV is officially dead.
Thoughts and prayers
Glad to hear!
@@TheRayner2814 bwahahahaaa, nailed it ;?D
it went in "a nice poof of happiness"
After all, death is the undeniable fuel of life

"A nice light puff of happiness."
*sound of a body dropping
Why did he break the TV with a mallet and not a gun? Missed opportunity there.
Phil Lewis so true. NRAtv suck at marketing.
:D
Phil Lewis Not enough budget
Perhaps they are bringing a new arms platform to market. The Glock 85 Sledge Hammer. With internal safeties.
Phil Lewis he was trying to achieve the same symbolism as the Apple Macintosh commercial. Trying to say that media is oppressive. But the message completely falls flat if the only person watching it is currently watching there shitty programming. The message worked for Apple because they had a theater of people watching the screen and the one person set them free with a sledge hammer. If anything this is just telling people to smash there TV if they don't like what there watching. The NRA is chock full of morons so I am not surprised that they don't understand symbolism.
"Girl, you don't even need a gun because people are going to DIE when they see that bag."

That bag was ugly anyways
I'd die of shock too, that thing was hideous.
@@starcherry6814 The color varieties were boring, too. Yuck lol.
THE SHADE.

"How stupid do you think we are?" Stupid, to a degree that can not be expressed by qualitative or quantitative measures, and one that can't properly be researched due to a government funding shortage caused by diverting funds to the military.
Ok, I thought the TV channels in GTA5 were exaggerated, they seem sedated next to NRATV.
Exactly
Axel Pingol I know that, it's just that America is so much crazier in real life than anyone trying to satirize it.
Well, GTA5 is a game that parodies much of what America does, so the exaggeration maybe worrisome... but peanuts compared to the gun-fetishizing and fear inducing NRATV does.

Spiderous bro, now that you say it, it does look early similar
"Are you tired of getting 9/11-ed?"
What a quote.
9/11 is a verb
Verbing weirds language.
First time I've heard it as a verb.
15:41 , You're welcome
And inmediately the crowd reacts scared and changes 'haha' to 'ohh!'.
Anyone else outside of the US feeling like they're watching something coming from an alien civilization?!
For sure.
Those of us inside the U.S do to I assure you
Yep, those Hill Demons will get you everytime. Especially when you litter during said picnic, and when you don't pay the park fee at the Ranger's station. Those deer don't feed themselves.
“Death is the undeniable fuel of life.” The Fk did I just hear? The villain in some new Marvel film???
Tsjiha23 pssst.... This is the exact point they were making.
The majority of the world is dependent on death to grow. The fact that you think that is weird shows how disconnected from nature you are.
Darcy Robbs lets close all hospital then. Just fuck it, we are gonna die anyway, the world needs it right? The Police? No more, bitches. Firefighters? Who cares. It's purge day everyday
Tsjiha23 just watch The Lion King again. Maybe you’ll understand
Just because some death is unavoidable doesn't mean we have to cause further death for our own amusement or convenience.
That's the point. Nobody said any different.
Darcy robbs But do we need to hunt down wild animals tho? There's already farms that industrialized death for us to be able to eat and grow. We are already doing enough damage to the biodiversity by destroying natural habitats and poluting. Why would we also need to go kill creatures that are part of an already damaged ecosystem?
Don't get on your high horse and pretend you hunt for the sake of "fueling life". You do it because you like to kill stuff. You do it for your selfish little enjoyment. Nothing more. Don't pretend otherwise.
You can take away my guns, but you can never take away my chocolate chip muffins.
TheRaazberry I stand with the chocolate chip muffins!
That isn't a joke, it's just a weird attempt at being cute.
Spoken like fat person who has no guns.
Nah fuck cookies I'll keep the guns
They'll take whatever they want after they take your gun
"Death is an undeniable fuel of life" is honestly a metal-as-fuck phrase, but it's *definitely not* the kind of tone you should be setting if your goal is supposedly to defend yourself and keep others safe.
This is honestly my favorite John Oliver episode
"a light puff of happiness" holy shit!
Ramza Beoulve I think shooting guns can be satisfying, so I get that whole bit, but I will say they seem a little obsessive
Don't worry. No one is ever killed by a gun, they mere use the "light puff of happiness" to guide them to that "happy place in the sky".
See? Gun Deaths send everyone to THE MOST WONDERFUL DREAM!
NRA - bringing light puffs of happiness to a school near you. 🦄✨🌈🎉
Komninos Maraslidis Those, and their victims!
SO happy!!! 😃👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
yeah i can see the satisfaction one can get from building/shooting guns as a hobby, it's just that when she said "puff of happiness" i got the shivers. since i can just picture the same thing she said, coming out of a serial killer or murder's mouth and it would fit like a glove.
5:48 The way he said “cock” makes me feel really uncomfortable... 😟
C O C K ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
...wouldn’t shock me if he was one of those conservatives VERY deep in the closet. I had the same thoughts of you in fact
Freud would have incredible fun analyzing the NRA
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
That was John's intention, Kelly.
Only thing that stops a bad guy with a sledgehammer is a good guy with a sledgehammer.
You say that as if it isn't true
It's 2021 and the NRA has declared bankruptcy, is going to stop operated in NY and will restructure in Texas (from what I have understood).
Fortunately the New York state Attorney General has stopped the NRA from trying to flee to Texas and reestablish themselves.
If your greatest weapon is truth, then why do you need an assault rifle.
The greatest weapon is truth because assault rifles have been banned for decades and it is the best thing out there
People can't handle the truth and will try everything to make sure the truth won't spread.
Some people won't accept the truth so you have to shoot it, high velocity, directly into their faces. Any fortunate survivors will surely understand the imperative need to accept the truth!
Because my RIGHTS Trump your scared feelings sweetheart
How many future school shooters are mouthing off in the comments here.
Why does NRA TV have a show reenacting movies when they constantly blame gun violence on movies?
KingOfMadCows how dare you point out that out! MERICA!
KingOfMadCows Because not even the NRA is so stupid to actually believe that violence in movies makes anyone do violent stuff. They are just hypocrits and are using it as a scapegoat when they are under pressure.
Because they are as stupid as any gun toting republican
You see, gun violence isn't bad so long as it's a good guy with a gun. Then it's actually a good thing!
Because they’re stupid.
My papa was a lifetime NRA member, he had a sign outside his house that said, "never mind the dog, beware of owner," and he meant it, he went hunting every chance he got and he had an animal head in every room. But he's also the one who taught me to respect firearms, always assume they're loaded, never point one at something you don't intend to shoot, etc. He was very comfortable with guns, but he viewed them as a tool, a way to get a job done, not as something you love. He loved his wife, his kids, his grandkids, beer and hunting, not necessarily in that order lol😋
I've not heard one DEMOCRAT say anything about taking your guns away. They're wanting better background checks,raising the age limit and extending the waiting period. What the hell is wrong with that???
Exactly, personally I would LOVE if guns weren't allowed, though it's not exactly easy to get that passed. I'm not a democrat. I guess if you gave me only two options, I align more with the democratic party than the republican party, but politics are much more nuanced than that. Democrats aren't like the woke socialist vegan hippie I am, much less those that are actually politicians.
@@lightningqueen1145I know it would probably be better if guns weren’t around, but you should know that is never ever going to happen in America. Sorry to break it to you
Whats funny
Trump IS the only one who explicitly said gun should be confiscated until proven innocent
@@lightningqueen1145 My democratic dad has a shotgun,he mainly uses it for hunting duck with my uncle when we visit. The only time I ever saw or heard him use it was to scare away some wild dogs that were terrorizing out kittens and ripping up our patio,it wasn't even loaded just a blank.
Technically they aren't lying. Democrats gun laws will take away the guns of every mentality unstable person. Many mentally unstable people just happen to be right wingers.
I like the guy who wants to make fun of the "socialist tears" but is so upset and offended by the first amendment he has to destroy things just to feel like a man again.
did you make fun of BLM when they destroyed their own neighborhoods? did you call out Antifa? hypocrite.
Did it say "Tears"? I thought it said "Socialist Fear"? I'll go back and look again, but either way, I'm still more confused by it than anything.
Basically people who think their right wing commenting on places Facebook, CZcams, and the DailyWire's comment section. I also wonder if Kyle Kulinski or David Pakman were to speak at a conservative university if the students will protest them or try and get them barred from speaking...
Hey, next you are going to have a problem with Elivis, who was one of the first to bring the gun AND TV together. And is it weird? As apposed to random violence of groups like Antifa, who are admitted socialists, breaking whatever is near their protests that turns into a riot? I suggest I would prefer people break their own things vs. someone else things, and breaking the TV is kinda his first amendment statement, you could even call that art. Personally, I would prefer to give him a smaller TV I own and let him kill that while I take his..... But hell, if he enjoys it, I am sure some TV company will be happy to keep selling him TVs to destroy.
Giveme TheDaily BLM! ANTIFA! THE DEMOCRATS! PAY NO ATTENTION TO THE MASS SHOOTINGS AND NRA! WE HAVE OUR SCAPEGOATS! PAY NO ATTENTION TO THE NAZIS RUNNING PEOPLE OVER IN CARS LIKE ISIS! LALALALALA
“Love at first shot” is the name of a documentary on serial killers who are also into necrophilia.
If that is true, then that is thrice as disturbing as the show of the same name.
I thought the name of that documentary was "Bowling for Columbine".
Issei Sagawa's favorite documentary I guess
I would definately watch that.
Or, conversely, a reality show about heroin addicts trying to find true love.
10:58 is the best moment of this show and I will hear no arguments against it.
That hunting show really sounds like a serial killer's manifesto
NRATV is how I imagined American Television looks like, when I was a kid.
E Marci it’s like how American tv would be in, in like tropic thunder and you’d laugh
It's not too far off.
NRATV has better trigger and muzzle control than the rest of American TV.
NRATV actually reminds me of the in-game radio when playing GTA..

11:47 - why can't the pregnant Natalie go out to the gun range? Are guns dangerous, or something?
They couldn't figure out a way to get earplugs in that wasn't sexual harassment.
Tfw you take the piss out on someone for using the kind of safety their organisation teaches
+Slash
Sorry, maybe I'm confusing something here...must be because I'm Dutch...
Are you suggesting they're teaching safety-with-guns? The NRA?
Which is why they try to re-en-act "cool" movieshots? For safety?
I'd say that life without guns is more safe. I live in the Netherlands, I haven't seen the refugee-rape-palooza's that people in America suggested. Or the no-go-zones or the politicians set on fire.
I'm just sitting here, with my window open, eating my sprinkles-sammich. No one has a gun, so I don't have to worry about being shot.
You should visit.
That. Was a beautiful statement you just made.
Widdekuu91 the NRA does in fact teach and advocate for gun safety. The reenactments show, I'm not sure if it shows him actually taking any shots or even if the gun is loaded. I would assume it wouldn't be. If it is, he's being stupid. I just find it odd that for all the things to nitpick the NRA about here, and there are quite a few, there's people choosing to try to mock them for... actually being safe and responsible with their gun use in that situation.
As for visiting a different country, can't really afford it. And if I could, I'd instead save that money for moving to a different state than the one I live in, one that's a better environment for me. I don't really have much disposable income.
The editors deciding to end the episode with the sledgehammer scene was excellent
rewatching this 6 years later is such a nice light puff of happiness.
it truly is.
"That's the America I know, and trust me, you're gonna be confused by it."
Ain't that the truth.
John, you're never gonna see this, and it's not related to the subject, but I want it known on the rare occasion you might see this. Tonight I was feeling depressed and suicidal. My emotions were getting the better of me on a personal level, and before I was going to walk out and do something, I saw your video. I stopped, I watched, and I laughed, and I felt better. For a moment, I didn't care how I felt about what was hurting me, and I felt like myself. Thank you John, from the bottom of my heart I hope you know you helped me, an unknown person.
the best you could get is the show/ HBO'S social media team to respond
Give it some time buddy.
Life changes very drastically for good in a period of time... I can vouch for that.
Nothing's worse than depression ... you've basically survived the worst.
Nothing can harm you emotionally more than this, in a way you're super strong than the person you were before depression ...

I used to belong to the NRA back when it focused on gun safety and protecting kids. Eddie Eagle was the clever bird who taught kids to keep their hands off guns.

Honestly. They did so much character/worldbuilding in that 8 minute short released in 2015 that if they released a full length TV series of Eddie Eagle telling me to not touch guns that appear under suspicious circumstances, I’d watch it unironically. F in the chat for Eddie Eagle.
“Because death is an undeniable fuel of life” sounds like something you’d hear from a Batman villain. I can hear the Joker voiced by Mark Hamill saying that.
It is a fact of life:
Anything you eat.. vegetables and fruits included , is either dead or dying while you eat it .
Simple reality .
It seems like you liberals have an hard time confronting reality.
^^ triggered
"dead stars" wtf? when were stars alive? and don't tell me that old lady with her house full of dead gazelles and other animals decorating the walls did all that to eat or fuel life. Don't mix hobbies with nature, only humans have hobbies, animals never kill for fun. And yes hunting is an ancient human instinct for survival but again our ancestors hunted solely for food and clothes and other shit, real necessities. This is a multibillion business endangered by logic and common sense, that is also simple reality that some people struggle so much to accept.
The denotative and connotative definitions of Death, Fuel and Life are over complicating things. What I understood from that statement, because shooters seemingly want to become infamous, was "Death makes you feel alive". The tone doesn't help either. Simply written it makes sense. Except to vegans I guess.
Zetsubou Risuikun When were stars alive.. haha when the sun rises tomorrow look up and see one not yet dead. As for whatever point you believe that you’re making. There’s plenty of places in the United States where people still rely on hunting as their primary source of food.
That sneaky gator graphic is hilarious
Cleaning your kitchen takes too long? Hi I'm here to present to you the KITCHEN GUN!
As a non American, the very idea of a company offering you discounts because you have a gun is so wrong..
kornofulgur You don’t have to own a gun to be in the NRA...
Neat because as an American the very idea of a foreigner making comments about things they don't understand is so right.
The NRA is a members only group that bargains with other companies to get deals for its members. It's no different than an airline or a credit card providing its customers with a rewards program.
draugur345
I understand statistics, and you have war-torn countries likes, go figure..
Think of it like a membership to a club, like a Costco.
kornofulgur
And what statistics would those be? Somehow America has more guns than a lot of "war torn countries" but has not descended into violence and anarchy so it's almost like the two aren't correlated.
Or are you saying I have liked from war torn countries? Because that would actually be pretty cool... which ones?
*At this point the US has become but a Meme to the rest of us looking from outside. Rooting for Y'all lol*
When were we not a meme?
Even to us on the inside.
Yeah, well, everyone else has their problems too. It's just fashionable to air our dirty laundry right now. What can you do.
This meme has kicked every other countries ass
Billy Bob it's not gonna be kicking any ass but it's own people's unless we do something about these guns
Lol, Roku's stock up over 1000% since this episode
That was gamestop
In my entire life I have to say this is one of the funniest things I’ve seen
My jaw was actually wide open almost the entire time. Holy shit, I can't believe that was real
Bob Builder Not too hard to believe
Only in America. And I thank God that my country doesn't have anything even remotely like the NRA. But then again my culture isn't obsessed with guns.
I find it ironic really.
I when I argue against guns, I always go with the James Bond analogy (why he is always dealing with so many Shadow Organizations)
But in our case, our Shadow Organization in america has no JB to keep it in check, and is out in the fucking Opening with its dick flapping in the wind.
And I am just supposed to pretend like I don't see it.
Some people require propaganda that's direct. Nuance goes over their heads.
Same. Holy shit. Glad I'm not an American.
Honestly just Fox News just on a lower budget
Aniruddh Lodha
Fox is for cucks tbh.
We watch the Adam 'the alt right is too light' warski
Good job Harry Roku, founder of Roku!
Love that I’m watching this as I make muffins
I like how these people believe that if you don't perform a manual labor job your contributions to the country are somehow less.
I like how these people believe that if you do perform a manual labor job your contributions to the country are somehow less
Matt K No one thinks that.
Both of your strawmen Dbags.
if your in a manual labor job, the idea is that you're uneducated and not quite smart level. As such, they are targets for propaganda because their worldview is quite narrow. To the NRA, that is worth way more than a software programmer with a college degree that actually thinks and has traveled some. The evil behind this group knows no bounds, if a baby got shot through a wall by a stranger, they'd say the parents didn't protect him.
I know teachers who can get just as pissed off as any coal miner.
And maybe it's a less dangerous job, but getting shanked with a freshly-sharped pencil, while not as life-threatening as developing black lung, is still rather low on my to-do list.
I had to pause this a few times so I could laugh without missing anything. And I am a handgun owner. I am also a former card-carrying NRA member. While I do still own my gun, I tore up my NRA card about a year after receiving it (roughly 1988). Let me tell you that only when you become a member can you experience the full impact of how incredibly over-the-top this organization is. The literature I got from them in the mail would have been highly entertaining were it not for the unintended consequences brought about by NRA members who took everything they had to say as absolute gospel. To paraphrase: "Make sure that your children are armed when going to the theater, as they will be the only defense against any terrorist threat." And, "Turn shooting into a family outing." Or, "How to remain armed while travelling abroad."
Anyway, this is possibly the funniest episode yet. From discovering that the NRA actually has their own version of HSN to that ominous narrator intoning: "...and her name is...Mary Jane." I have never even heard of NRA TV, but I may have to start watching it for laughs because John Oliver cannot produce content fast enough.
Seems it stopped broadcasing a while back.
I once went through my dad’s NRA magazine with a pen. I pointed out incorrect information, fear mongering, and just general fuckery. Needless to say, my dad was annoyed
ALSO-RAN ! I definitely think the education system and mental health services need dire attention, as both a student and a person who has needed mental help before. I also think shooters names and faces, especially those with agendas such as the El Paso Shooter, names should not be on the news. I agree with you on those points.
However, the NRA magazines are full of fear mongering, with statements such as people are coming for your guns, or you need guns to protect from immigrants coming across the border and things like that. I will admit that the left does fear monger about guns. But, like my dad always said, “guns don’t kill people, people kill people” but that doesn’t mean that everyone should have access to a gun. There needs to be reform so it’s difficult for people to get ahold of dangerous weapons no matter what their intended use is. Besides, even if killers had to turn to knives or something, it will take them twice as long meaning they won’t be able to hurt as many people.
@ALSO-RAN ! has it really been "part of your identity" for generations?
Or was it just a nescesity back in the day and when that disapeared it was turned into "the countries identity" by institutions like the NRA to keep up sales?
People generally do not tie their identity to objects by themselves, especially if it concerns deadly objects, public relations usually does that for them....
By that logic atomic bombs and patriot missiles are also part of "the national identity" for generations now, and should be given to any maniac that wants one.
@@baronvonlimbourgh1716 regardless of your politics or position on the gun lobby and increased regulations, it's necessary for Americans to have access to guns
Dana is the Dwight Schrute of the NRA.
Woo this hits hard now..
The idea of smashing a TV with a sledgehammer rather than, i dunno say TURNING IT OFF, is not only the most American thing I've ever seen, but ironically the best visual representation for the argument of owning a semi-automatic assault rifle to "defend" yourself
Ignoring for the moment that assault rifles by definition are selective fire rather than simply semi-automatic, I'm not aware of any "off switch" for criminals... with the closest thing being lethal force.
@@Nanofuture87 Lol it was just a joke my man (albeit not a very good one). Sorry I don't know a lot about guns, we don't use them in the UK. My comparison was in the idea of using an assault rifle to defend yourself, as opposed to a pistol, a knife, a bat etc. Now I'm sure you have stats to prove that assault rifles are less deadly than the aforementioned options, in which case, I apologise if I was wrong, it was not at all my intention to misinform or offend you.
If a fat guy in a dirty t-shirt destroyed the TV in the midst of a domestic dispute, that would be as American as it gets, and realistic.
@@jkotheprodigy89 just an FYI term you were looking for was "assualt weapon" one would reasonably intuit that an assualt rifle is an audit weapon but they're not
@@Fuctmentality
The main problem with "assault riffles" is that there is no such thing.
What did I just watch? Not just the segment, but all the NRA TV bits. I didn't even know something like that existed until now.
I still can't believe those weren't comedy.
America: has a channel for firearms
America: why are there so many people shooting at other people in schools and offices?
Are you trying to imply that watching NRA TV inspires people to go on shooting sprees?
@@Nanofuture87 probably not but the obsessions with guns is a bit over the top. Who are they trying to arm themselves up against?
@@manasjoshi6107 You don't necessarily have to be arming yourself against anyone, you can just like guns in the same way some people like cars. Guns are mechanically interesting and they're fun to shoot. As for people actually arming themselves to potentially use, usually it's for criminals, animals, or the government.
@@Nanofuture87 if you don't understand the difference between people liking guns and people liking cars then we both belong to different planets probably.
@@manasjoshi6107 I live on a "planet" where guns aren't demonized, where people haven't been conditioned with an irrational fear of them. They are just objects, mechanical tools.
*successfully compares nutella to the NRA*
Except not all of us like Nutella..?
@@Vistresian1941
Except Nutella is far more successful in marketing with far lower cash consumption for adverts.
Besides, there may have been far too many mass shootings in recent years, but no-one's ever heard of someone committing mass murder with a jar of Nutella.
jack simpson Jason Bourne could probably do that
@@Vistresian1941 yeah and there's a little debate of the AR vs the AK
@@jacksimpson8529 i know people that still think nutella is healthy
