Transcript
- 0:12Welcome to the live to shoot podcast.
- 0:14My name is Jeff Dowdell and I've been a licensed firearm dealer for the last 17 years.
- 0:18This podcast talk about all things related to the second amendment, as well as anything else going on in the world or a sports story or anything else that I might find interesting.
- 0:26So welcome, welcome, welcome.
- 0:28So the one thing I'm going to miss about Joe Biden is the comedy that surrounds him, the falls, the slips, the, the and the other thing is his, his faux toughness that he likes to exude and that always comes out.
- 0:46He wears his aviator sunglasses out.
- 0:49But he likes to get angry.
- 0:51And if you watch the state of the union, he was very angry and yelling.
- 0:55And that may have been the Adderall that he was drugged up on to keep him up that late or, or whatever.
- 1:01But he, he likes to pull out and just show how tough he is.
- 1:04tough he is.
- 1:05And when it comes to gun control, he likes to be the tough guy and show, you know, that he's ended it and he's going to do it again.
- 1:13And came out a couple of times in the state of the union address.
- 1:18And, you know, here are just a couple of my favorite quotes.
- 1:21The first one, he's talking about what, what needs to be done.
- 1:25And this is a little threat they said, do something, do something.
- 1:33So, do something.
- 1:34That's what he's saying.
- 1:35We need to do something.
- 1:37And you know that do something has always been, you know, ban high capacity magazines, universal background checks eliminate evil assault weapons and things.
- 1:46But he, he's yelling, do something.
- 1:48We have to do something.
- 1:51And then the next clip he is in the context of that.
- 1:56He's.
- 1:57Accusing president Trump of just kind of blowing off gun violence.
- 2:02And he is saying here what he's going to do about it.
- 2:07I say, stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it.
- 2:11Just love it.
- 2:11Just stop it.
- 2:13Just stop it.
- 2:14And you know, when he gives these threats, I'm wondering, you know, who's he yelling at?
- 2:18Is he yelling at us, the American people?
- 2:21Is he yelling at the representatives?
- 2:23It's like he's a little.
- 2:26He's a dictator, and the only way that he knows how to get his way is to yell and threaten, and that is what he seems to be doing.
- 2:34But the bad news for Joe is that it doesn't matter what he says, the truth is what's happening.
- 2:43And things are changing, you know, the number of constitutional carry states from when he was in the office, when he started with 16 it's now 29 after Bruin.
- 2:53We'll talk about that here in just a minute.
- 2:55The number of people carrying is, and being able to get their permits in autonomy fashion has gone up and that has reduced.
- 3:04And the leftists even themselves keep slipping up trying to show what a great job he's doing, but then they can't, you know, reconcile the fact that crime rates are going down and gun purchases are going up.
- 3:18So, in an article this week or and last week from the, the center square Their title is mass gun violence down 48 percent so far.
- 3:27And so a leading criminologist from Northeastern, Alan Fox says it's down nearly 50 percent compared to last year.
- 3:35And he says it's for crime.
- 3:37It's good news is no news.
- 3:38Mass shootings by the gun violence archived definition are down 48 percent so far this year.
- 3:44He said, you know, this is a quote, there is no.
- 3:48There really is no epidemic of mass shootings epidemic epidemic in the level of fear that is way out of proportion with the risk.
- 3:56He says he argues that when the media reports hundreds of cases of mass gun violence a year, whenever they report on incidents with many fatalities, they give a misleading impression because most mass shootings don't involve more than one death.
- 4:10So there's that.
- 4:11And then, and then there's the.
- 4:13An article from the Daily Signal and this comes back to what I was talking about.
- 4:17The leftists can't really balance out what, you know, they want to highlight, you know, gun violence being up or crime rates being down.
- 4:26They threw out that Bruin was going to make it just, crime rate was going to go crazy with all these people carrying guns.
- 4:33Those people that were threatening that, Quoting the article, unintentionally and with no sense of irony, that voluntary inmates are actually on the decline in those restrictive gun control states forced by Bruin to recognize the right to bear arms in public.
- 4:47Giffords, a prominent gun control advocacy organization, previous condemned Bruin as a terrorist organization.
- 4:53An extremist arguing that it would drastically affect the state, the safety of a large swath of U.
- 4:58S.
- 4:59population by escalating gun violence, leading over more people to feel unsafe in their own communities.
- 5:05But then two years later, while retreating, retweeting an article that criticizes conservatives for asserting that President Joe Biden.
- 5:13Failed border policies are particularly responsible for an increase in crime rates, even though significant evidence suggests that the claim is false.
- 5:20Giffords now highlights that they claim that crime rates are actually falling.
- 5:25Gun control advocates can't seem to get their story straight.
- 5:28Crime rates often appear to increase or decrease depending on whichever is most useful to the gun control narrative, and that is the truth.
- 5:37But the one thing that they can't get away from, and the stats show it, that More, more guns don't lead to more crime, that is for sure.
- 5:47And they actually lead to a safer environment for those that are in there.
- 5:51And that is what we have to keep pushing with the second amendment.
- 5:55And when I say, you know, to iterate or to quote Joe Biden, you know, do something and that do something is to.
- 6:02Vote for Donald Trump and get Joe Biden out of office.
- 6:06That's what our do something is gonna, gonna be.
- 6:09And when we say just stop it, we're just stopping the regime and the control that they've had over us over the next for the next four years.
- 6:17Because we're going to removing them from office, we're going to get rid of the administrative state and we are going to get a clean slate.
- 6:24That's what we're going to do.
