"If you take the safety part out, shooting is fun in general"
the most american thing i've ever heard
Its true but, there’s better ways of saying it
Ham and Cheese I just don’t think you should ever take the part out
M K it is fun though...
@M K so what.. Many thing are dangerous.. People are free and thats great.. Just should have better regulations concerning gun ownership...
@M K sky diving is dangerous, rollercoasters are dangerous, driving a car is dangerous, doesnt mean we outlaw the fun activities it can provide
Mental illness is a global issue, but the number of mass shootings are unique to the US.
The right to own a gun is also unique to the us
@@_tuss1731 no its not. canada and switzerland has a high number of gun owners its completely legal there to own almost every kind of gun you can in america. the difference between these countries and america is they make it harder for the gun to get into the wrong hands and don't idolize guns like americans. there's a way to allow your law abiding citizens to have guns to defend themselves and not let every psychopath have easy access to them as well.
@@punology6829 I think there's also a difference in the mentality between the US and Switzerland for example. Europeans aren't obsessed with guns and therefore just a few actually own one.
punology ah no no no, I said the RIGHT to own a gun not the legality of it. Many countries you are legally allowed to own a gun but ONLY in the US is it a RIGHT.
William Maddux and so? It used to be a right to owned slaves but you changed that. Frankly it just feel like a big excuse to say that you have those guns to defend yourself or because it’s a right when in reality its seems pretty obvious even from this video that people just wants to keep guns especially assault rifles because they like them.
If you need to carry a gun around to feel safe you're probably living in the wrong country.
amen
It’s not a matter of feeling safe, it’s a matter of being safe. Security theatre like metal detectors, or gun laws are just illusions, and dangerous ones
So if your government decided that all of their constituents need to do this or that and came into your neighborhood and started taking your neighbors to do that by force what would you do?
@@tianamarie989 I didn't understand a word you wrote
@When The Heart Speaks idk why. I didn't misspell anything. 🤷♀️
Imagine a country where to feel safe going to the movies or supermarket you need to carry a gun because you're afraid of other people who have guns. It's actually hilarious
Not just guns. I’m scared of getting attacked by someone even if they had no weapons at all. It’s not that their scared of other peoples guns lol
@@erinnn5790 well if that's how you feel living in the US I really feel sorry for you. In my entire life I've never been worried about having a gun pulled on me or being shot. And I'll go hunting a couple of times a year with friends where we use rifles etc.
@@Both-Barracuda I don’t really worry about Guns being pulled out on me or being shot. More so being physically attacked (with no weapons), being kidnapped, or raped. If I had a gun, no crazy person would be able to lol
@@Both-Barracuda i didnt own a gun until the riots started. I drive through a major city for work, when the protests started i seen people being assualted in the streets and in their vehicles. I bought a gun to have while im on the road. Recently meth has been a growing issue in my community, so i got another one for the home. I have a family, im in the mountains, it could be a 5, 15, 25 minutes before police arrive and i may not have that kind of time to wait. On top of that we have bears so yea.
I carry a gun so I'm more likely to have the one up on someone else who threatens to harm me, myself or my property that Ive slaved to have. It's about preservation. Preservation of my life and it's associated happiness and comfort. Anyone that wants to try and take that should think twice. Anybody who would allow another person to take what they work hard for are losers in my opinion.
Did Dylan say he was a two time mass shooting survivor?? Any shooting is horrible, imagine living through it twice
Agreed but I think that was Dylan
People do it everyday. Military,police, impoverished areas like Chicago
@@bootsontheground9998 Do you understand what shooting means ? Killing unarmed people. Police and military have guns. Chicago has a high crime state, not a shooting problem.
it was dylan
Absolutely horrific :( All my best wishes for him to have a smooth recovery ❤️😔
why would she say “shooting is fun” in front of a group of people who were in and have lost people to mass shooting
Definitely a bad choice of words but she isint wrong
She should read the room a little better but, objectively, she isn't wrong.
Because shooting is fun
Right
@@juliaryan6657 it’s a lot of fun
would love to see a conversation like this between people from different countries. as a singaporean, this entire conversation is actually insane because i’ve never ever seen an actual gun before in my whole entire life but i still feel extremely safe walking around alone at night
There you’re answer your not an American so worry about your country and stop sticking your nose into other country business. Because you egotistical clowns are gonna say “well my country has this” or “ban it because I’m offended”. So please sh*t up
I am an American born and raised. Growing up I was a supporter of Gun Control. There was a time when I believed that no one needed an AR-15 my Dad took me to the range and we shot his new AR. I then learned more about it and gun control's history the statistics and my opinion changed. I am a 2nd Amendment advocate for all not just citizens of the United States, but for everyone.
I heard that even pepper spray is banned in Singapore because it can also be used as a weapon.
I did know somewhat that Singapore is considered safe but not that safe. Which I think is cool and life is so much more enjoyable without the fear of getting shot everywhere at any given moment.
I am from Croatia and my country is pretty safe too. It was even named alongside Slovenia to be one of the safest places at night...especially for women, which is dope. And as a woman I can agree. I can walk in the middle of the night alone without fear...well the only thing I could be afraid of is the darkness itself xD
As a brazilian, I don't feel safe at all, even if it's illegal to own a gun in my country. Criminals still have them and there are still mass shootings at schools all the time.
People can't help but feel frustrated that bad guys can use them and all you can do is scream and run, or be really still and allow them to do whatever they want with you.
@@ivehaditidontcareanymore.6326 Excuse me, but what is "the range" you are referring to? Is it like a center for a firearm class? Tq
That kid in the grey sweater is an absolute Chad. He understood that both sides have reson, was honest with his biases, and took action to protect his classmates while also keeping tabs on the situation.
I feel like at this point we just need a middleground that's just America VS The Rest of The World
Yes
This right here is what we need the most
We'd need more than one lol. We'd need one for every theme
@@niamha6079 you mean country?
Americans vs a Brit, a Canadian and an Aussie, sounds like a banging vid
as a european this is so strange
As a Canadian, I completely agree. I'm amazed that they think they need a gun to be safe and how "normal" it is for them to own guns.
Tary1894 idk if it’s just me but when I travel to the us I don’t feel safe ever knowing that anyone can have a gun
I know right! It's absolutely terrifying 😔
it's scary🥺 I'm in the usa and I think that we need change. I'm so terrified
same i hate it
As someone who doesnt live in the USA this conversation in insane
It’s insane for you because you’ve been accustomed to prefer security over freedom. Meaning you are accustomed of being controlled.
@@thevigilant6884 controled? what? in no other place on earth other than america are school shootings normalised, you guys there in america have a serious problem with guns, in my country, guns are only legal for people who need them for their jobs and everyone is doing fine without a gun, where does yalls obsession with guns come from?
@@thevigilant6884 and you are accustomed to children dying and making excuses for it. hush.
@a disappointment "Guns are cool and fun. They represent power. Gov't trying to take our firearms. This is the USA! USA! Better than every country on the planet. We are freedom, and it cant exist anywhere else."
Not me saying this btw. Welcome to USA America.
@@jazminsmith6343 Yeah, I'm quite unapolegetically insensitive
When he said he lost 8 friends that day it really hit my emotions… heart wrenching 😔😔😔😔
The fact that women was laughing and said that shooting gun is fun beside mass shooting survivors especially the one who survived twice is mind boggling
They're NRA members, what did you expect, really.
Yes that was a little insensitive. You have your right to think whatever you want but it was inconsiderate in this particular scenario..
And around the guy who lost someone due to a gun accident, like......

@@RealMcLovin Oh yes, because a victim chooses to be shot at, or knived, or robbed, or raped, or killed. Jesus fvcking Christ.
@@Kasiarzynka Now imagine if you had a gun in any of those situations.
That dude in the gray sweatshirt is actually admirable, considering what he's been through.
I love how he isn't anti-gun after all that. So many people would hop on that band wagon these days. Nice to see him seeing it from a healthier perspective.
as a norwegian these conversations are absolutely insane
Same
Swede and agree
As a German as well. It's crazy.
same here as a Dane :D
I’m American and it’s odd even to me, a veteran.
As a non-American, I will never understand the deep connection some Americans have with their guns.
Its not so much the gun as it is the right to own the gun. If one amendment is jeopardized then every other amendment has lost its barrier and everything the constitution stands for is at risk of being changed or damaged. Like a flood gate, if one falls, the entire thing is going to come down.
look man, I even I who, an American who has owned a gun and then returned it, does not understand the connection some Americans have with their guns.
@@c.j2138 the word "amendment" specifically means change. Our Founding Fathers created the Cosntitution with the knowledge that it was imperfect... that is why we have amendments. No where did the men who wrote that document assume it was perfect... they designed it to change as it needed to for the continuation of our society. I feel people who don't see that only have a very basic understanding of history and our government.
@@robtheeducator8230 and in order to change that you need 2/3rds of states and/or 2/3rds of both houses of congress. But you never try starting there so...
You will once you realize the police are corrupt and won't protect you, and that gun control has historically been done for racist reasons
How dare that lady ask the high school student "Don't you wish you could have done more?"
ARE YOU KIDDING ME
Exactly that felt so insensitive!! To a 17 year old who’s shooting was only 4 months ago?
i was so mad when she said that
People like her have a special place reserved in hell
I have a massive feeling that she was trying to "sell" the idea of guns to him, I have seen similar questions and tactics used before for this purpose. The next thing she would have asked would be something to the affect of "imagine if you hada gun too" or "do you wish that someone in the crowd had a gun to stop the shooter", I have seen it before.... it's sick tbh. It's what thay offen do, they play of "what if" in order to use a warped image of hindsight. "What if the shooter was not the only one with a gun?" This one is a fan favorite of theirs, it's like a broken record at this point.
Agreed, it felt incredibly insensitive...and being a gun owner doesn’t mean you support or are a member of the NRA.
This was a level headed convo but everyone was so concerned with stepping on each other's toes It seemed people weren't fully truthful with how they felt.
They lost me at “the issue with this nation is white supremacy”
“we don’t own guns because we like to shoot things” proceeds to talk about how fun shooting is
KamekoBruns maybe don’t be so rude. what she said is confusing and insensitive, especially in front of mass shooting survivors.
KamekoBruns You clearly missed the point
Make it make sense
KamekoBruns that makes no sense
@KamekoBruns that doesn't make sense
Heather doesn't think America has a mass shooting problem.
Also Heather "There are mass shootings every weekend"
As a person who lives in Chicago Heather is being slightly inaccurate. There are shootings on the weekends (unfortunately), but they are not mass shootings. Plus I don't care for her throwing poor community under the bus to make her point. And before u disagree watch that segment again, its implied.
@Carlos Owens there is no reason to own a gun
@@slickway5590 Why do you believe that?
Zephyr FN I think I’d say because the general attitude is “they have a gun so I need a gun to protect myself”. This just makes a big gun chain
Carlos Owens How can you say that that is not that bad!! The fact that even one person has to die because of mass shootings in America is bad and it won’t be bad until the number is zero
Gotta love living in a country that loves guns more than our children.
Nah we love kids, especially Biden
Like abortion?
Gotta love an American (?) who actually gets what's going on in their country!
we love kids we offer solutions need up the security in schools my previous job had better security than schools and we just processed used cell phones and the whole argument we cant afford it is false when we just sent 30 billion to ukraine you guys dont want solutions you guys just have a anti american agenda
The people who are against having armed security in schools are the ones who clearly do not care about children. Putting “gun free zone” sings up by schools as if that doesn’t shout out to every possible threat “soft targets here”. These some people don’t bay an a eye when there favorite celebrity had armed security but the second we try to protect children they take issue, if that’s not pure evil I don’t know what is
That was an incredibly frustrating conversation, and I have a little less hope that change can come.
yes, I agree. it's sad that things like nukes, rocket launchers, machine guns etc. are illegal in the US. hopefully one day that will change.
@@MegaVega2007Come and take mine.
Legalize canons!
@@whitepicklejuicecannons are legal
The sooner all gun laws are repealed, the better.
As a non-American, the gun culture is crazy to me. It seemed like they were almost all pro-gun. Even the mass shooting victims.
Merica'!
I am an American and I definitely agree. I also think that the people chosen for this video all seemed more pro-gun then many survivors are
@@avaginsberg3871 many survivors want to abolish guns so that the shooting is less likely to happen. But others want their own, to "equalize" the scenario, so that they aren't helpless. And, truth be told, choosing not to purchase a gun for self defense isn't going to be too influential so why not feel more in control? I feel it's an accurate depiction of the spectrum of shooting survivors.
Me too!
As a non American I came out with a conclusion that white NRA supporters want their guns to protectect themselves from black NRA supporters and vice versa
Every time someone says, "teachers should be armed" I think about the time my 2nd grade teacher threw scissors across the room.
Ban scissors
For me , think about my one of my former first grade students who broke into my locked classroom during his lunch period (he thought the classroom was empty). I think about my colleagues who have had their locked closets broken into and money stolen out of their purses (all elementary school teachers btw). Have a gun in my classroom? Absolutely not. I have nothing against owning a gun but having it in the classroom is a liability I want nothing to do with.
I just think about a few of my older teachers..
Give them a gun and if they ever have to use it, two in the floor, one in the ceiling, three more somewhere down range and probably nowhere near the actual target.
Especially under immediate threat.
Its not a good idea.
These are educators not police.
Hell, cops don't even react well many times so obviously the training the U.S. currently requires is not adequate.
Introduction of firearms to all classrooms is a non-starter for me.
Arthur Pilgram - hard to say when it comes to armed police officers in schools. Personally, as an educator, I wouldn’t have a problem with it. That being said, I work in NYC in a title 1 school. Many of our students have extreme behavioral challenges. We also have a high population of special needs students. Furthermore, a large portion of our school community distrusts the police and it could wind up being a recipe for disaster if you get an officer who doesn’t know how to speak to children or their families. Even worse if the officer doesn’t know how to deal with special needs students or recognize the difference between rudeness and a manic episode. The officer would need to be someone friendly with a very small ego and excellent deescalation strategies, which can be difficult to come by and even more difficult to advertise for.
Edit: forgot to mention, as a parent myself, I would be 100% okay with an armed officer in my children’s school. But that’s just me and, for the sake of playing devil’s advocate, I know many families who feel differently.
It should be treated as a house gun locked up if it were to be a thing
As a Canadian I cannot believe what comes out of Heathers mouth
Heather reminds me of women in half of America. She's not atypical.
She profits off of people owning guns, since she teaches them for a living.. what did you expect? Typical greed.
Crime in general happens mostly in large cities. Canada has I think three large cities - so not a lot of crime to consider. The USA has hundreds of large cities. When comparing large cities where the victims are disarmed (Chicago) with large cities where the victims are allowed to arm themselves (Houston) - you are safer where criminals are worried that their victim may be armed. Heather understands this reality - and so she is happy when people she knows takes measures to be safer.
Wouldn't it make you happy to find out that a friend who hates seat belts finally tells you they changed their mind and will wear theirs from now on?
You’re Canadian, you don’t know what freedom means, of course you don’t understand.
As a responsible gun owner and now security guard, nor can I.
This is so heartbreaking to see. The survivors are all shaken, just trying to manage day to day life after this traumatic event. NRA members manipulating them, and trashing them over these things is disgusting. Lost any ounce of respect I had for this group of people.
Heather bothered me

@@danielshayder8875 Interesting point! The point of my comment was to dispel a wildly inaccurate statement made in the video
Because dont compare guns and trucks! Ask jim adler.
They should do a segment called "questions the rest of the world wants to ask the United States". That would be sooo interesting!
Oscar it’s called questions so they can see our side of it
I would want to see that if it was focused on specific political groups and the US government but I don’t want it to end up generalizing all americans
@T K but why? Who cares what we Americans have to say? Why does it matter that other people can ask us questions or not? I dont see a point to it whatsoever
Oscar the point is exactly that the societies in other countries is extremely different. I think it would be interesting to see if some of the Scandinavian ways could give another perspective on this topic when compared to America. I also think people (like myself), from a non-violent country, with no sight of a gun, have a lot to say - that could add to the topic. And yes, the show is “based on America’s social phenomena” but it is viewed by subscribers all over the world and this could increase the number of viewing countries even more.
@Oscar It's about introspection. It is essential to see yourself in a way you probably hadn't considered before, hear how other people do things, to be able to evaluate yourself. The way others perceive us can tell us a lot about ourselves. I think not wanting to self-evaluate and not wanting to expand their worldview are honestly the biggest flaws Americans have.
I'm so glad that everyone was respectful and open in this discussion.
Super well done by Jubilee and everyone who was included. I really appreciated hearing from survivors. So sad to hear what they have gon through. Grateful they are speaking up.
If I was involved in 2 mass shootings, I’m not leaving the house.
And, essentially he lost nine people close to him.
That's devastating.

i can’t even imagine the trauma he faces with surviving two mass shootings. i honestly don’t even think that’s something a person can get “over” really, especially knowing it can happen again by just going out in public :(
it will take time and work for his situation to better. he may never even ‘get over it’ completely. but yes, hopefully he has gotten help that has been helped it get as better as possible.
There’s no gun show loop hole. I’m surprised the NRA people missed it.
Best group of people I’ve seen yet on this channel. They all had valid points and spoke so eloquently. So sorry to all the victims.
It’s ironic how the “Black Guns Matter Guy” says that nearly anyone watching has probably lost someone due to a mass shooting whilst probably barely any of the European viewers can relate to that.
My thoughts exactly! Either he doesn't know how many non-Americans watch Jubilee's videos, or he's just kinda living in his little US-centric bubble.
Yeah I immediately came to the comments when he said that. Here in Belgium (and in most of the European countries), the number of gun related deaths is around 10 times smaller per 100,000 inhabitants!
stilldownwiththemutantunderground I thought about mentioning this concept of an “American bubble” too. How exciting that you came to the same conclusion and finished my comment in that sense :D
Totally correct. There is a lot of this I can’t relate to. Our country has never had a mass shooting.
This is crazy! I literally can't believe that these things are true for Americans! I know (rationally) that it is a thing but I still find it unbelievable!
“United States does not have a mass shooting problem”
Yes, and the sun is made of orange juice
You're putting that in bad context

@Bineet Roy take a look
Lmao I love this comment
If my job offered to train me and allow me to carry a gun, I would
I remember someone in my school having a hit list and finding out from him I wasn't on it because I was nice to him.
I do know though that not everyone planning to hurt people will stop if shown kindness.
As someone who does experience mental health issues, I would love for mental health to be less stigmatized and discussed. I do not believe though that would solve all these issues like mass shootings, but I am hopeful that it could help in some capacity.
I am also aware there are other factors involved in a variety of situations, but I just wanted to touch on the mental health aspect that was discussed.
I would honestly love to see a pro-masker and anti-masker discussion video.
@Catharsis the whole and trump says is completely uncalled for i see more anti maskers at blm rallies than any trump rally

Bruh wtf only one person stepped forward for "it should be harder to buy a gun"?????
Right lmao. I support the second amendment but you gotta be more thorough with the background checks and getting illegal guns out of circulation. How few people agreed was a bit disheartening
How could you make it harder?
Most people that buy guns from a gun store, private owner or gun show usually are not trying to get a ghost gun to go shoot up the local market.
And zip guns are made every day inside max security prisons. They aren't pretty, but a lot of them work just fine.
Take some time and think what someone on the outside could do with a small milling machine or 3D printer.
They would be millionaires the day after guns are over regulated or outlawed.
True gunsmithing is an art, but you don't have to be an artist to make functioning weapons of ANY type.
And if you're not skilled enough to produce your own or just don't want to take the time do so, you can always go down to the corner and buy a hot gun.
The point is that it's nearly impossible to try to regulate something that you can make in your basement.
And criminals will forever do bad things regardless the law.
Making it harder for people to defend themselves, and possibly others, would be a bad joke on every lawful gun owner.
Don't fear the gun. Fear the azzwhole holding it.

“I support the second amendment”
*wants to infringe the second amendment*
Jimmy C it’s literally just have more mental health studies, heavier background checks and yearly inspections/shooting classes. It’s actually not that hard. People just don’t wanna think hard enough. In most places you can just walk in and get a gun that day, the point is to not make it THAT easy. You have to have your mental health tested, have your background checked thoroughly and do the yearly checkup just like we do with drivers license. Most people would have to wait would be a week.
Lina Aviles having another person decide wether you’re mentally fit to own a gun is a big no no
If it was harder/impossible to get a gun, then maybe we wouldn't need so many guns to defend against other guns.
False, criminals don't follow the law and will still obtain them, therefore leaving law abiding citizens helpless, specially for those that don't live in major towns.
@@richardcannon6227 and that’s exactly what happens in other countries and the rate of gun violence is still lower it’s kinda common sense to make them harder to get
@@richardcannon6227 they wouldn't be helpless, as long as they follow the correct regulations and protocols that allow for them to obtain a gun then they will have their own protection. not every person deserves to have a gun, and implementing some sort of control limits possible mass shootings and separate incidents to a degree.
@Shaniya Straight we already have that set in place! If you don't know this, then that means you've never purchased a firearm before. Educate yourself.
@@richardcannon6227 obviously we already have regulations set in place. i don’t have to own or buy a gun to know this. it’s pretty much common sense. i’m saying there needs to be MORE restriction. while background checks are held up to standard by law, mental health reporting laws vary from state to state, and this is one of the many loop holes where a gun can end up in the wrong hands. and yes guns can be obtained illegally and will continue to do so, but our government and we as the citizens of this country need to continue to add these restrictions bcuz one less gun in the wrong hands will end up saving many lives.
Ugh. .. I don't know if I'm ready for this... it's so painful even the first part just makes me want to cry.
What has happened to our country? I'm troubled that people will defend guns over people over human lives. It's the persistent devaluation of life. It really hurts.
What infuriates me the most when those poor kids are attacked and accused of falsified information after having been traumatized
Banning guns doesn't stop violence. The reason why 2nd Amendment advocates like me tell people to arm themselves is because we want every law-abiding citizen to be able to use the most effective tool to protect themselves. Even if there were no guns whatsoever within America, violence would still exist. The UK still has violent crime, the criminals use knives and it is an extreme problem there. According to the CDC there are approximately 500,000 to as high as 3,000,000 self defense uses with a firearm within the United States. The majority of mass shootings happen in gun free zones. The attackers specifically target gun free zones knowing that it is likely that no one will have a gun to stop them. We already had an "Assault Weapons" ban from 1994-2004 it had a sunshine clause in which the DOJ concluded that the ban had no effect on stopping gun violence.
Guns are designed to attack AND defend human life. Double edge sword like many things in life unfortunately.
Thankfully have a couple of firearm' to protect me from danger. If I got robbed it was being burglarized I would have something to protect me with instead of just waiting for the police while the suspect is already gone. Plus I live to see you or take my guns away if so have knives too
You know what bothers me? You’re willing to do away with inantimate instruments that have been around for eternity, and only recently has this ever been a problem of this magnitude. But the solution is…emotional knee jerk sentiment.
@@thedewdster there have been roughly 300 school shootings in the US this YEAR alone, it shouldn’t be happening. You’re allowed to access guns way too easily
Not living in the US and hearing them say that everybody knows someone that has experience something related to gun violence... NO, absolutely no, and that's the problem, normalizing something that shouldn't be and isn't normal at all in other countries.
Yeah agreed. Weird how everybody had a connection to guns. I’m from the US (a liberal part but still) and I don’t know anybody that has a gun.

@@carrielee1624 Most people who own firearms in a hyper liberal area wont tell you. Unless you're a part of that community or show interest will they show themselves.

Hayden’s point about how he doesn’t think a teacher would be able to shoot one of their own students is so powerful and something I really had not thought of before
Yeah true. Good level of empathy
This is my point of view as well. I have talked to people about the inability of a teacher to end the life of a student when their whole purpose is to help the students create a great life. Im glad he said it because it is a great point and I was worried it would be missed.
There are teachers unfortunately that violate the trust students have in them.
elizabeth he has to mature quickly after being involved in such trauma.
Yeah but it's a fallacy, the personal incredulity fallacy. Honestly, arming teachers just creates more problems than it solves. You have to train them, ensure that the guns are safely put away, do background screening, etc. Also, there's also the fact that even trained policer often have troubles identifying the suspect in these shooting.
As a Canadian I feel just as free and safe without being able to constantly carry and buy a gun
Those who sacrifice freedom for a little bit of safety will get neither freedom nor safety. --Benjamin Franklin.
Your country no longer has freedom of speech and is currently engaging in forcibly reeducation to anyone who speaks ill against current political leaders. You're also no longer allowed to protest certain things and can get jailed and fined even if you do it peaceably. Sadly though America isn't too far behind ya, especially if they succeed in slowly making it harder and harder to have a gun until no one does. Then the government is really unrestrained in what it can do since the citizens are defenseless.
Our founding father's realized that the greatest threat to loss of life and liberty will ALWAYS be the government, not solitary psychopaths. And the reason we have so many mass shootings is because of the other side forcing places to be gun free zones which is where 98% of all mass shootings happen. Their policies are what is causing the issues in the first place.
There’s also more people in the state of California than there is in the entirety of Canada. It’s a numbers thing. More people=more danger.

Heather is the perfect example of what’s wrong with a lot of gun owners, she’s one of those people who would cover say she doesn’t see gun violence as she’s covering her eyes with her hands, she’s doesn’t see any issues because she doesn’t want to
Bc she's highlighting the gaps in gun control?
She was so infuriating to listen too especially when she asked why the media highlights/chooses the mass shootings to cover. MAYBE BECAUSE THEY HAPPEN IN PLACES WE FEEL SAFEST?????
She highlighted the issue that gun-free zones are easy targets. She also highlighted the amount of mass shootings that occur in Chicago just over a single weekend. She's not covering her eyes, you are.
She wasnt giving opinions. She was giving talking points. It sounded like she didnt think her opinion through and just regurgitates what she had heard.
The others gave thought behind their opinion without giving "gun free zone" talking point or "the media" talking point.
@@FromTheAshes0762 so, you like feelings over facts then?
I hate the mentality of "if someone was nicer to the shooter he may not have done it".
1. That's victim blaming
2. Improving Mental Health is more than just being nicer to people.
I think that perspective. It’s true but I would say that it can help. I think it a lot more complex. I think of it as a cause and effect. There so many factors that would come of it. I think people bring it up because they feel like at one point their mental health should not have gone to that state that they would do something horrific. Also people want to have a reason to understand how something like this could have happen.
how's that victim-blaming? most school shooters have been bullied, it doesn't justify it, however in a lot of scenarios a lot could have been done by the person's community that would have prevented it. it's just the truth.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
@@katinkaaa2951 it’s victims blaming because most of the time the victims don’t even know who the shooter is or what their reason is. It just implies that it’s the victims job to be nice to stop shootings when in reality mental health is so much more than that. And I know it’s not what they mean but no ones deserves to die just because they didn’t know it was someone’s birthday.

Internet gonna internet.
@Ann Rohde It wasn't. It was people who had survived mass shootings and people who were gun enthusiasts having a discussion. Stop trying to warp the title. Not everyone that has survived or been affected by a mass shooting is anti-gun.
When Heather was talking around 7:52, about getting a text from women saying, "guess what I just bought today!" that statement in and of itself is concerning. In the US you can get a gun the same day with no background checks, no reference checks, no psych evaluations nothing!! Small arms took a minute to two minutes to reload in the 18th century. Guns have changed since then, and the laws should be amended to protect children, schools, clubs, supermarkets, churches, and so on. Doing a simple background check, psych evaluation, and having a small waiting period to obtain a gun in my opinion should be necessary and I wonder how other people feel about this.
you 100% have a background check anytime you buy a gun, no matter where you are. if you’re clean, it takes about 20 minutes. the only time there’s no wait time is when you have a concealed carry permit but even then, you get your background check ran, you just bypass the waiting period. background check also includes pysch eval
Wow your ignorance is showing badly. Everything you claim the us should have ( background checks pshyc evaluation and a waiting period) IS LITERALLY ALREADY IN PLACE 🤦
Its obvious you have never tried to purchase a firearm and literally have ZERO knowledge on what you're talking about.
When I bought my first gun I had to wait almost three weeks to go pick it up after my background check
@@spellicup5286how annoying waiting three weeks ugh what a trek 🤣😂😂
*Stays standing for ‘I don’t think there’s a mass shooting problem’*
*Sits down for ‘I think teachers should carry guns’*
Why would teachers need to carry guns if there wasn’t a problem with mass shootings also within schools?
Do you know why schools are often the targets of shootings? It’s because the shooters know the security in schools is awful. It’s not difficult to understand, but the sad part is that few people think about that
@@datsko6339 That's not how it works.
Datsko right... and you know this because you’ve thought this out yourself or? ...
Yes it makes perfect sense, let’s throw more guns into the mix and allow pupils and teachers to have them. *Everyone’s* safer now because *everyone* has one...
Yeah I don’t think it works like that either.
No it’s not hard to understand, it’s the first thing you would assume and then with some critical thinking you’d understand that mass shootings are ultimately suicide missions.
So what do they care if someone is able to pull a gun back on them? They know going into it they will most likely end up dead or failing that behind bars for life anyway.
They would still do it regardless, they have a death wish to begin with but putting more guns in schools when it just takes one to ruin countless lives is a pretty weak argument and actually a recipe for even worse than what one unhinged person could do.
To punish children
As a right to protect themselves and their students.

lmao at 16:22 jubilee putting the statistics on the screen to directly point out the ridiculousness of heather's argument is so funny
The homicide rate in California is still 500% higher and in Illinois it’s 900% higher than New Hampshire. Jubilee shared only population numbers, not per capita deaths, which are the numbers that compare apples to apples.
I hate statistics in online videos. They're always limited in what they can show and are picked specifically to promote the agenda of one side or the other. You can prove statistically that the US having more guns makes for more gun violence (more shootings in US than elsewhere)(this can also be debated as most places that are considered to have more gun violence dont track it like the US does) while simultaneously showing that banning guns yields more gun violence (Chicago, DC, NYC having overwhelmingly more shootings than anywhere else without gun restrictions) Don't assume stats prove the point for either side. They're just supporting evidence and often manipulative.
I don’t think you know what a statistic is 😂
But it's not ridiculous she's correct. The statistics don't change what she said.

Portraying the teachers as potential bodyguards for children just seems so absurd to me.
I mean I don't think it should be that absurd. They are adults in a school full of children, those children are their responsibility, they should be able to protect those children just in case a WCS happens. Whether that be a natural disaster, shooting, or even a simple fight
Blank it is though, teachers are there to teach not to shoot down intruders. In my state we have at least one bodyguard at all of our schools so they are the ones who need to protect. Bodyguards and Teachers are two entirely different job titles and unless someone is teaching you about defense the two should never correlate.
Blank it’s a lil absurd schools would either have to pay for the firearms and ammunition or have the teachers buy it themselves and schools are constantly loosing funding id say a better idea is to just have armed guards or police officers on campus rather then have teachers be armed
Blank we can’t even trust our police officers being their job to protect our communities how we suppose to trust teachers whose job is to teach n deal w kids all day. tbh some teachers cant even deal w their emotions from marriage, kids, family. srry love my teachers but its just facts srry ☹️

@@cat-uh8np There's no country without problems. I live in Italy. We constantly complain about everything, and rightly so.
But honestly certain things about America make it looks like a dystopia. And I, for one, knowing them would never want to come live there. Seeing videos like this one or John Oliver's Last Week Tonight makes me truly shiver.
Because in Europe (at least the western part) we may have problems like unemployment, slow bureaucracy, refugee crisis and some countries are in a bad financial state. But there are things we consider basic human rights: healthcare for everyone, workers' rights, public education and access to high levels of education without running into debts, public safety with very little to no risk to find yourself into a shooting, and less militarized and more sensible police.
I think citizens are regarded with more respect in Europe than in America, governments of all political sides care more for the citizens' well being than in the US. Therefore politicians usually - but not always - have to pay more attention to what they say and what they do. And things like what recently happened in Texas, with the state freezing over and people lacking the power to survive the cold, are just inadmissible in western Europe.

As a British viewer that's grown up in a very different cultural approach towards carrying guns, I felt like this episode lacked proper diversity of thought. As has been said, these weren't really opposing sides - although I was surprised that they weren't more different. In the UK it isn't radical to believe that there shouldn't be guns altogether and I understand that the US might be different in that regard but there has been much more radical opinions on these videos previously. It was really frustrating to watch people talking about the "fun" of guns next to survivors and even for survivors to not be anti-gun. I understand that it is possible to have different opinions within a set of experiences. But I really do feel that this video didn't properly find any sort of middle ground because the views were not different and diverse enough.
