  • James Prime here today and It's no secret that everyone around the world loves Americans. So in this video, I got the chance to speak to some awesome Scottish people on their home turf. I just asked them a few super basic questions which were:
    Timstamps:
    0:00 intro
    0:30 Have you ever been to the USA?
    1:07 What do you think about America?
    1:49 What is something you LIKE about America?
    3:22 What is something you DISLIKE about America?
    5:08 What do you think about the American accent?
    6:23 Can you give us your best American accent?
    7:32 Outro
    This video is supposed to be pretty light hearted. Don't take it too seriously and above all else, I hope you enjoy it. Thanks again to all the amazing Scottish people who took the time out of their day and did this! You guys are awesome! Long live Scotland!!!

    Reading all these comments from Americans loving our country is so heartwarming. I am from Glasgow in Scotland and I am so proud to be Scottish. But saying that America is the best holiday I have ever had. Visited New York (where the lovely waitress asked if I wanted a bag take my breakfast away in and she called me ,schweetie,) to the Deep South where I was lucky enough to visit New Orleans, Nashville, tupelo, Memphis and Alabama and go down the Mississippi River. So many fond memories and everyone is the friendliest I have ever met. To hear these Scots in the video be slightly stereotypical and say guns and burgers a lot - well I can only say they had to think of an answer quick while being put on the spot. We love you Americans. Visit us anytime.

When Germany realized they couldn't take the east they relocated all efforts toward the western expansion. Plus it's not only the warfare that America brought but the welfare and rebuild effort once everything was settled and destroyed.

This was only a few Decades ago. Then , the Dunblane Massacre happened and the British were hoodwinked into giving up their guns. The criminals kept their guns and the populace was disarmed and turned into weak, meak and snivelling weasels. The Mass Gang Rapes of children and young women would not be happening if we still had our guns.
      The Firing of Supermarket employees for posting a Billy Connolly CZcams video to Facebook would not be happening if we still had our guns. The Police Arrest of any Christian Pastor for peacefully and respectfully trying to evangelize in the UK, would not be happening if we still had our guns. If we still had our guns so many terrorists could have been foiled sooner. If we still had our guns Those in power would Fear Us and treat us with at least a small amount of respect. Now, gunless, we stand bowed, bent and broken.

      We were once conquerers of land and sea.
      The Scots, not the British, Invented The Modern World.
      We are now a Mockery of our former selves. A Mockery.
      Those in power no longer fear the people. Crime is so much worse. Ignore what the media tells you and look up real statistics regarding gun crime in America. What you must understand is there are worse consequences overall of giving up firearms. Take a look at what cities in America have the most shootings , it's the cities which have Banned guns!, Because the criminals Keep their guns and the populace becomes Defenceless.
      This Entire world is kept safe Only by the guns in the hands of the ordinary American citizens brave enough and clever enough to carry them.
      If America Falls, and the American citizens lose their guns The Entire World Will Fall Under The New World Order Immediately and there will be No going back x.

    I can totally understand others not agreeing with or understanding our gun laws or lack thereof. I personally grew up with guns in our home. Mostly for hunting purposes and was taught at a very early age how to operate and respect such a powerful tool. I am a Conceal Carry Permit holder as well as my husband and oldest daughter who is 28 yrs old. My 2 youngest daughters who are 22 and 20 have no desire to handle or carry guns and that is their choice and respected. In my home state of Indiana a CCP holder can carry their handgun out in the open (holster on hip) if I choose to. It is pretty common here to see people "carrying" their guns this way and it isnt something that scares or bothers us. We are used to it. Those that were not born in an area where guns are permitted or have been a for lack of better term "part of their life" are for sure not going to understand the concept. Our Forefathers wrote our gun laws to protect us from our own Government.

      Are we at war? By the way the fact we have a large army obviates any need for the 2nd amendment. We don't have any need whatsoever for the 2nd amendment and haven't for over 200 years. Need I remind you of the words of the 2nd amendment? "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State". What was a militia at the time it was written? What were they talking about? State militias. Basically a volunteer force of citizens to come together to protect the individual states. We currently have a Defense that costs over 700 billion a year. We have state national guards. We have the Department of Homeland Security. We have police departments around the country not to mention state police. Essentially all of these groups provide the security of a free state that is mentioned in the amendment. All of them. Thus there is no need for an individual right to bear arms. No need of an individual right to gun ownership. None. There hasn't been one for 200 years. The second amendment results in 11,000 gun homicides a year and 19,000 gun suicides a year. That's 30,000 dead Americans a year for no damn good reason. That's not security or freedom or safety or anything. It's just death. Pain. Endless amounts of pain for the people who love those that are lost. The second amendment needs to be repealed. Gun ownership needs to be a privilege and not a right. It won't eliminate the danger that 320 million guns already in private citizens hands create. That ship has sailed. But it will stop the endless excuses that people have for the pain caused by gun violence in the USA. It will at least be a statement of values by this country. A statement that we value human life and we want this misery to end.

Once we get that outlawed then I might believe we are actually concerned about saving innocent life and there's no hidden power grab behind the gun control agenda. That's the main point. Also as far as a well regulated malitia we need to understand why they made that an amendment. If it was just to have an army then you have a point that we already have one so there's no need for individuals to have guns but the reason it in the bill of rights is because they wanted to make sure that the government wouldn't overreach there bounds and be the only game in town with guns. That's what you would have if the army and police (government) where the only ones with the right to carry.

Also, I was not used to these type of videos before I started watching a channel called "thatmanyuta" and I really liked his style as well as the obvious value I was getting because I am very interested in Japanese culture and language. Such a thing is not always applicable, but there is alot of competition, so I want to give this observation to help you further develop your already excellent content.

    For anyone reading this who might agree with their negative takes on guns, understand two things:
    A)What you hear in American media (which is rather left wing) as well as your own (probably the same) is generally highly omitted and misleading. Most of the American communities with high concentrations of guns actually are quite peaceful. Conversely, the areas with stronger regulations and a lower ownership rate generally have the exact opposite situation - some of them with murder rates comparable to the third world (literally). The problem with comparing the murder rates in the developed world with America is that there is nothing in Europe or East Asia comparable to the violent sub cultures found in the aforementioned communities (east st. louis, south chicago, DC, Detroit, etc.). Though they are few and far between, they (by themselves) raise the average murder rate of the country up significantly, again generally in areas with very strict laws and very few guns (at least legally held). The reasons for their behavior are wide ranging but rest assured 95% of America is quite safe.
    B)America has in it's constitution the right to own firearms which is quite different from other European countries. The reasons for this right are deeply ingrained into the contextual philosophy of the country itself and would take a while to explain. Suffice to say, it's not something that can just be repealed easily. There would have to be overwhelming majority of elected officials voting in concert to do so.

Being from Europe, I never knew anyone with a gun, and a never knew anyone who even cared enough or wanted to own a gun. We were all fine with not having guns, and felt that it was just unnecessary. A lot of us just don’t understand why it is ingrained into your society (or even has to be for that matter). Like I understand “protecting yourselves against a tyrannical government”, but seriously what is a gun going to do against the AMERICAN government for god’s sake.
