    "Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

      Yeah. It saddens me as a lover of history. Schools gloss over important details and the lessons we’ve learned from them, and instead get caught up in dates and whether this or that was right or wrong in our modern context, when they should be teaching a general understanding of what was happening at the time. If they taught the right way, many people would enjoy history and understand it much better. Or maybe most American’s just think they’re so special bad things could never happen to them. How anyone could trust our government knowing all the horrendous things they’ve done I will never understand.

When citizens with guns came together to create the decoration of independence there were traitor citizens who were ratting on some of them. Some of the people helping our founders & his family got hung and treated like traitors to great Britain. We wouldn't be here right now if it wasn't for the founders & it's sad soooo many people arnt being taught real history. Schools are not teaching real, good history. So many will be forgotten too.

    Halfway through the video and wow. Keep it up guys, I’m gonna get myself on the WPSN ASAP because it’s awesome to see you guys standing up for freedom. John you’ve helped me so much with firearms and theology (my brother in Christ), huge inspiration! God bless you guys, let’s keep standing up for the truth and not back down. We are in critical times!🙏🏻🙌🏼

    This is a good video for those who don't understand the meaning of the first 2 amendments, id like to see more videos like this on the rest of the amendments. I feel this has the potential to be a good teaching tool.

      @@axeandtimber4650 i'm inclined to agree... i have some unusual ideas of some simple things that I think could help immensely, but when ideas like outlawing "parliamentary privilege" are raised, people have no idea what is being talked about and brush it off. Most people don't know that politicians are legally allowed to lie to our faces without consequence (and that's just one aspect of parliamentary privilege that protects them from accountability). Too many people are blind to anything other than what they think is the only way. Until they get slapped with reality they won't change. Separation does seem like the only option left.

      @@motorteeth But the practical implications are rather brutal. Logistically there is a lack of ports for the central provinces, and with BC not necessarily willing to go along with us in the rest of the west our only other option is joining the US? Our government has sold us out to the Chinese and we either wait for the world to shift the balances on its own, rendering an opportunity we cannot currently access or we risk pushing this too early and blow it. But we cant just sit waiting twiddling our thumbs can we?

      Roadkingrider. While I agree with you that Mandela is not a good person to quote about freedom. We still need to remember that one mans terrorist is another mans freedom fighter. We know the narrative that was told to us by the news. The people on the ground in the fight might have a different view.
      You know that if we start fighting in america over politcal reasons, that if the UN comes in and we start fighting them, that the right leaning people fighting will be demonized by the world media. You know it will happen, it's already happening.
      So my point is Mandela has some great quotes, so did ho chi Minh. We can learn from their mistakes. We can learn from their quotes and ideas.

      @@paladin556 Thank you Jessie, that was my intent behind the quote. I agree completely with your reply. I honestly would prefer to just state the quote and leave his name off. But, I'm sure it would receive criticism for not siting a source.
      Reality is we have two choices. We don't have to become an outlaw we can surrender the right to live the life we believe in. The reason I like this quote is because that second option is not even considered.

      The best thing about this video is that it's not about the second amendment. It's about freedom. The question that it begs is what are we going to do about the freedoms that have been taken away over the last hundred years. If the answer is truly nothing, then all is truly lost.
