“I heard about this show from an ad on one of my more regular podcasts and it was about how they were going to do a season and deep dive into the whole “gun thing”. Turns out it was only 6 episodes so that should have been a clue. The first episode on the matter was okay but there were some statements that made me raise an eyebrow but I decided to soldier on. Episode 2 showed the agenda almost immediately. The host targeted Justice Alito for almost direct ridicule claiming that someone from New Jersey couldn’t possible know anything about New York subways, that NYC is a safe city and focused on carrying, not the ownership which was the problem. He later tried to make the TV Show Gunsmoke somehow be factual and Dillon was a horrible sheriff because he “killed so many people” and that actual Dodge didn’t “have these problems because they hired a good lawman to protect the people”. That right there is where he went off the rails enough that I had to stop listening. The 2nd amendment is more than just having firearms for self defense and it is a right in this country to own one if you so choose. The Framers just fought a war for freedom mostly with Minutemen and they weren’t ignorant.
This guy clearly has no trouble being loose with facts. Why would anyone trust his commentary when even the title suggests that things might be wrong. After all he mentions Marie Antionette’s “Let them eat cake” in an ad, when she never actually said that.”
