Saturday's assassination attempt on Donald Trump is widely viewed as the Secret Service's biggest failure since 1981, when a gunman shot President Ronald Reagan just over two months into his first term. Reagan was hospitalized for nearly two weeks. Three other people were injured, including Reagan's press secretary James Brady, who was shot in the head and left partially paralyzed. Brady and his wife Sarah would go on to become prominent gun control advocates pushing for a bill that became known as the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act. Brady was also involved in a gun control organization that changed its name to the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, now known simply as Brady. "Reasonable and appropriate gun violence prevention measures save lives," says Kris Brown, the president of Brady. Brown advocates for critical gun control measures that would interrupt the Republican Party's vision of "guns everywhere, for anyone, at any time."

Can you guarantee that our government will never go tyrannical?
Someone clearly thought Trump was, are you advocating for what happened?
@@PjKneisel
My god, watching you people try to reason from one point to another, and then think they are analogous, shows exactly why most of you failed math class so miserably
@@PjKneisel is character assassination truth or propaganda hyperbole? Clearly you thought what happened to Trump was justified. Can you go any lower?
If it does? How would being armed help the average person resist such a government?
The people who oppose any restrictions on guns are the same ones pushing for a government run by a tyrant who is above the law and tells you how to live, who to love, what you can read and what you can do with your body.
Exercise your rights. You are the Militia and gun control is just an attempt to take your rights.
Second Amendment to the Constitution of the United States:
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
Title 10 US Code, Section 246 - Militia: Composition and Classes:
(a)The militia of the United States consists of all able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and, except as provided in section 313 of title 32, under 45 years of age who are, or who have made a declaration of intention to become, citizens of the United States and of female citizens of the United States who are members of the National Guard.
(b)The classes of the militia are-
(1)the organized militia, which consists of the National Guard and the Naval Militia; and
(2)the unorganized militia, which consists of the members of the militia who are not members of the National Guard or the Naval Militia.
YOU ARE A MEMBER OF THE MILITIA, unless you are an active member of the Military.
Word
And how many times a year to do you attend a militia meeting or training.
@@gingertom56 I'm a member of the unorganized militia, but I'm also a Veteran who kept up his gun skills for a long time after my discharge and carried for a long time as well.
SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED 🇺🇸
Kris Brown is a f*cking liar about silencers 😂😂😂. They don't "mute the sound of gunfire", they slightly reduce the decibels produced. In fact in many European countries silencers are REQUIRED BY LAW. TBH the whole separate registry and background check for one is ridiculous, the person in question theoretically already owns a gun, the same dangerous thing we're trying to control 😂😂😂
Way less likely that a vet will seek help if he/she is worried they're rights will be taken away with no due process. Also alot of these local ccw permit processes disproportionately deny minorities who apply. Not to mention, I dont need a permit to exercise my 1st amendment RIGHT! Just like i dont need one to exercise the 2nd amendment
Sir, you are not a constitutional scholar and your views do not align with the vast majority of law professionals. Stop being literally ignorant, do a deep dive into the 2nd amendment using legitimate sources and get a f-ing clue.
The earth isn't flat, trump lost the election, climate change is real and you can't think for yourself.
The constitution says "well regulated milita" hun, give reading a try.
And you can say whatever you want, but words gave consequences. Try to threaten someone or call in a bomb and see how the judge feels when you explain your 1st ammendment rights (which btw, only mean that the GOVERNMENT cannot censor you).
I swear, the right has absolutely no clue how the laws work in the US
CZcams does not allow debate on the wisdom of the 2nd Amendment. In particular, it pulls down comment condemning it as root cause of this problem.
We are not even allowed to discuss the issue freely.
Well, to be fair the 2a isn't the root cause of the issue. And to claim so would be genuine stupidity.
@@Moose_King_05 USA's problem in this area is unique to USA. USA is an outlier in terms of the problem's magnitude compared to other western nations.
No other modern western democracy has adopted anything similar to USA's amendment.
It is one of the fundamental contributors to the US population's attitude toward firearms. Contrary to your simplistic dismissal of it as stupidity, many serious people have advanced it as being integral to the problem and solution.
They keep all issues separated from all other issues. Smug conservatives enjoy that.
@@rjlchristieAuthoritarians gonna Authoritarian. 😂
Who cares about all your words? You missed the entire point.
@@rjlchristie "Contrary to your simplistic dismissal of it as stupidity, many stupid people have advanced it as being integral to the problem and solution." There fixed that for you.
Concealed Carry Reciprocity means that If one has a license to carry concealed in a state, then that license is honored in other states. So someone who has been granted the privilege to carry a concealed handgun in Virginia can carry in a majority of other states, due to the similarity of laws amongst those states.
All the rights listed in the Bill of Rights are supposed to be enforced equally in all US states and territories, just like Gay Marriage. Gun ownership is one of the individual rights listed in the Bill of Rights and not equally enforced in all 50 states and US territories.
@@fee1776 I wish that people cared as much about all of the other rights and liberties as they do gun ownership.
@@Rhythmiconsit's madness
@@fee1776 The interpretation of the amendment as referring to an individual right to own guns is a recent invention.
@@Kalumbatsch how can you claim this? The 2nd amendment was ratified in the 1700's.
These people are insufferable.
The whole delicious irony of a scenario that could only exist in the US.
Tell me you have never left you home town.
Love everyone's like ho ho ho, only in murica. Lol, what country do you live in so I can list all the ridiculous shit that goes on there.
We all have problems pal
@@CristopherMattison-ro2pw , I have, maybe you should try it. Then you might be able to see how ridiculous you look.
@@jessejamez5985 What the US has that no other country in the world has is specific laws protecting individual rights, including freedom of speech. If you are not an American your main problem is you are not American.
@tomjackson4374 You really don't know other countries. They have Individual rights including freedom of speech too. They have even more rights and a real democracy where the candidate with the most votes becomes president, where they have no eletoral college, no senate, no gerrymandering, no voter suppression and subvertion laws. Payed health care, etc.
To much of the world the USA is increasingly looking like the forbidden zone of so many familiar apocalypse movies.
My comments are being removed
Of course. You're screwing up their perfectly good echo chamber.😂
this one too...
Theres also a solid chance youre just hitting the spam filter. It happens to me all the time.
yt algorithm doesn't show you comments as written. They group like minded people and people who disagree vehemently. yt manipulates us. Social media is the root cause of the unprecedented social divide we witness today. They did it with radio, TV, the internet... It's all manipulation to get money from your pocket into someone else's pocket.
@@meatmobile right!? There are key words that trigger a very not intelligent filter. Then a human reviews them and there are 3 copies of the same comment from the same person.
It is more fun to believe you are being personally attacked tho. There can be cens**ship and political motivators causing this, but it's a way to deal with all misinformation/hate/advertising.
You guys really bring on the worst guests she’s speaking complete nonsense
Lol, maga trolls up in here. Did you miss school when they taught punctuation? Next time make a point and try to at least SOUND like you might have two brain cells to rub together.

America. Where we ban books from schools but have high school rifle teams. 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
What books did America ban?
I was shock learning there were rifle teams. I would have never imagined it.

Name a book that is illegal.
MOMS DEMAND

GUN RIGHTS !
This is a Pandora’s box that has already been opened.
If they don’t want you to be able to protect yourself do you think they will protect you
By blocking laws regulating and restricting guns they are preventing people from protecting themselves in favor of pandering to a radical well financed minority that would rather see schools build like prisons than do what would be most effective.
Vending machines selling ammo????😱 And the money is rolling in...
Nice victim blaming, lady. Your ability to not understand statistics is truly astounding.
" Common sense " is a.. s-t-r-e-a-t-c-h .
Pootoob WILL NOT let me leave a comment disagreeing with the Democrat “solution.”
Thank you, Amy! (Fayetteville, NC, USA)
Very telling that the wiki connected with this post has nothing to do with the event in question.
The radicly different policy between Biden and trump on the issue of guns in America is irrelevant because of selective law enforcement and as long as the law is enforced in that manner there is no law worthy of being respected and we don’t.
Now is not the time to talk about gun control
I note that CZcams doesn't pull that viewpoint down.
Yes it definitely is. But we totally understand that Americans really can't,! The algo is not the only American refusing to connect issues. Conservatives love it, too.
They can talk about it at any time but the answer is still no.
Lol there was no Secret Service
If anything Donald Trump is lucky . And the secret service. Agents that jumped on trump . Are Lucky as well The shooter didn't have a line of sight .. the last five shots the shooter took he didn't have line of sight too far back on the roof
Comment blocked
We can't handle individualism ( totally obvious ).
Kris Brown was an exceptional guest, and that was a very eductional interview. I hope to see more of her.
It's quite disturbing how CZcams censors calls for gun control from the comments.
Yes. I don't see any of my comments about it.
Sadness, you took a liberal bs stance on guns.
Sadness, You came to a liberal media source expecting maga views? How dumb is you? Maga troll
This is a nice comment will it be taken down?
see what I mean...
Just find out the ideology of the CZcams censorship department and say everything they agree with, then your comment should stick.

Nope
hate guns
You mean you are afraid of firearms.
Cry about it.
So don't own any, daisy.
Hoplophobe..
This nonsense is why I cant watch this channel consistently.
It was a predictable response from Amy, but I had to come here just to make sure nothing original was happening on this channel. Saw the title and had to chuckle.
What, do you not understand firearms law? Are you butthurt that no, you do not get to own any boom stick you want? Get over yourself and look at the big picture. I'll talk gun witcha. I only own seven. I love my guns, I love shooting my guns but if you are the kind of turd that bull$hits like they actually know constitutional law or that their opinions are obviously correct over actual constitutional law scholars, then take your opinion and put it somewhere dark, warm and humid.
Non-sense, you're non-sense. F-off if you disagree with common sense gun laws.
Every comment you leave helps Democracy Now reach more views and boots the algorithm. So good work fellas

Yeah the problem is gun control....😂
Only episode that I’ve ever been disappointed with
Blah blah blah
I seen in video a woman smiling as she went down as trump touched his ear and went down 🙃
Uhh. Yah. No.
I used to be all about "gun control".. then I looked for answers to questions were not supposed to ask.
This whole thing is bait.
You are the fish.
🎣
Oh so deep, please share your "special" knowledge that no one else can know.
Yes, your whole comment was the bait. Well Einstein, I was all against gun control until I actually educated myself. If you disagree with common sense gun reform, you've never actually looked for the answers. Sure, you found some, but you never learned the scientific method did you? You make the rest of us who are capable of due diligence weep for humanity.
@@zombiehampster1397 The hard truth is that under "gun control", only criminals have guns.
@@zombiehampster1397his special knowledge can only be found in his meth pipe
You looked for answers ,huh?
what did Q tell you?
Please always double check facts and remember to think too. I just want to defend against the silencer comment which somehow got linked to police?
It was invented for use on cattle, then Maxim made a U.S. patent and eventually mufflers for automobiles. I have heard that police and military use them to "hush puppies" before a raid, but that has nothing to do with the origins of the device.
Your “well actually” is based in a willful misunderstanding of what she said.
She was referring to the National Firearms Act of 1934 which states:
“The terms “firearm silencer” and “firearm muffler” mean any device for silencing, muffling, or diminishing the report of a portable firearm, including any combination of parts, designed or redesigned, and intended for use in assembling or fabricating a firearm silencer or firearm muffler, and any part intended only for use in such assembly or fabrication.”
@@PjKneisel well literally I didn't say that and neither did she.
Her reference to the law was then followed up with a direct implication that the civilian sector is the one demanding and using them without aknowledging the majority of the use on living beings historically or currently.
She next implied that police will respond to that sort of noise and that lack of noise is slowing them down. Perhaps in your white-bread world the po**ce will come every time your lawn gnome falls over but that's not true for everyone, there is more than just your clan out here.
My point still is that the majority of demand and wholesale of these tools is not for and by the people as much as the arist****tic gord-d*gs. Having the tool available at "Costco" is only drops in the whole bucket.
@@PjKneisel final apology for using you as a thread for my comments and for the cen**r**ip, I can't seems to keep my comments up especially on this channel lately. It's ironic that I lose my voice at Demo***cyNow! but I know it's OurTube-NotYours who deletes the comments. I've been a listener for longer than youtube has existed and hopefully long after youtube is over.

Just read her official policy platform. It's quite clear. Jill Stein, with whom I AGREE on many major issues (I'm registered Green) is strongly anti-gun and strongly anti 2nd Amendment. For this reason I can not support her.

Isn't too much glorified gun violence in pop media a causative factor? What goes into our minds, comes out - quite a concerning thought..
Never seen a violent gun
Dude, it's been known for YEARS that tv and games and such don't a violent person make. Lots of studies, due diligence. Go to google, type does violence in pop-culture cause violence. Look around a bit. studies abound.
You see, I have to change MY pov due to changes since I last time I did my own due diligence regarding this topic. Seems violent media can encourage people who are already violent. Things change all the time so what we knew yesterday, might not apply today.

I am your sister from Yemen, and by Allah I only spoke out of hunger and distress. My mother, my brothers, and I lessons and tears. We are in a situation that only God knows about. God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs for those who brought us to this situation. By Allah Almighty, I did not write this appeal out of distress and distress. Poverty, O world, they have felt it So, I hope for you. By Allah Almighty, Lord of the Great Throne, he ate what I had in the house. By Allah, my brothers, he is my brothers by sitting in the house. Who has no food? By God, we are in a very difficult situation. We have 6 people entering the house, and my father has died, and there is no one who can depend on us and who lives in it.We live in a rented house because we cannot pay the rent we owe. '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''' My brother, my first words are: I swear to God that I will not lie to you or deceive you. I am a Yemeni girl displaced from the war. My family and I live in a rented house in Al-Shahrab 15,000 Yemenis among us, and now we owe 45,000 for 3 months. The owner of the house is one of the people who does not have mercy, by God, my brother. He comes every day, insulting us, talking about us, and moving from the house to the street because we were unable to pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us crying and came back.They came back to talk to the neighbors and we were given the weekend. So we made him swear by God. He will take us out into the street. Have mercy on him and us. Our country is due to this war and we do not find food for our day, and my brothers and I live in a difficult life. Our father died, may God have mercy on him, and we have no one in this world who was with us in these harsh circumstances. My younger brothers went out into the street and saw...The neighbors eat and stand at their door in order to give them bread even if they break it. By God, to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, they closed the door and expelled them and came back crying. They are dying of hunger. No one has mercy on them and a holiday is returned. I have made a living, and now if one of us helps us with a kilo of flour, I swear to God, I am dying of hunger. My brother, I am an alien to God. Then, I ask you to help me for the sake of God. I ask you, by God, to love goodness and to help me, even if you can, by messaging me on WhatsApp.On this number 00967717354582 and ask for the name of my card and send it and do not be late and may God reward you with all the best, my brothers Sagar, see how they are and help us and save us before they throw us out in the street, you will be lost or we will die of hunger.
