Welp, now all I want to do today is watch Tombstone and Big Trouble in Little China.
Hollywood legend Kurt Russell absolutely smoked this anti-gun, anti-white, woke Hollywood blogger in a resurfaced interview from 2015 when he started talking about guns being a "totem" for "white men."
Listen to Russell dismantle this blogger.
Russell: I don't understand the concept of the conversation of the 'gun culture.' We've lived with guns - what, since the 7th century or something?
Woke dude: We all know right now that guns is a trope ... it's a totem, it's a metaphor that disenfranchised white guys need. It makes them feel good ...
Yeah, he went immediately to anti-gun AND anti-white guys.
Because, you know, the biggest problem with guns in the US is white guys with their buddies at the range. Not the inner cities or anything like that.
Russell: You can say what you want. I don't agree with that. It's not my thing ... If you think that gun control or something like that is going to change a terrorist's point of view I think you're, like, out of your mind. I think you're - I think anybody is. I think it's absolutely insane.
I had no idea Kurt Russell was this based. I knew I liked him, but this makes me like him even more.
The Hollywoke dude then got into the no-fly list and potential terrorists being able to buy guns, and Russell just worked him over again.
Russell: They (terrorists) can also make a bomb pretty easily. They can also get knives and stab you. What are you going to do about that? They can also get car and run you over. What are you gonna do about that? What are you gonna do about that?
Wokie: They didn't kill the people in San Bernandino like that ...
Russell: But they've killed others. So what are you gonna do? Outlaw everything? That ain't the answer. Put some controls? Haha! So the people, so the people who want to defend themselves can't?
Wokie: No! Not so you can't! Just so the idiots can't get ahold of them.
Russell: Do you really believe they're not going to? Are you serious about that? What good will that - ? Oh my g--. You and I just disagree. You and I just disagree. I understand that you think you can control the behavior of people that are dead set on taking your way of life away from you. I think you think you can control that. And there is only one thing you can do with that and that is say, 'No dude, that ain't gonna happen. That's just not gonna happen.'
Then he walked out of the interview!
I'll be honest, it was so refreshing to hear some common sense in this day and age, even if this clip is almost nine years old.
Russell is an absolute boss! Man, we really need more of this in 2024 now that we've survived the era of Trump breaking the establishment's brains, the WuFlu, the Summer of Love, the ongoing border invasion, and more.

DON'T GET OUTED!
DEAD GIVEAWAYS YOU'RE CARRYING
You carry a gun to protect yourself and others, but one key to keeping out of harm's way is to make sure people don't suspect you have a gun. If a bad guy knows you're carrying, it puts you in a dangerous situation by making you a target. Why, then, are so many people — both civilians and police — so careless about how they carry? I believe it's a combination of ignorance and complacency.
I can promise one thing: Bad guys are profiling people before they act. It's part of what they do, since their objective is to get away safely. Interviews with prison inmates have provided valuable information about how they picked their victims. If you walk in an awkward way, ignore your environment and the people surrounding you, they are more likely to select you. They're looking for victims and concealed carriers, and they know how to spot you.
The most common mistake people make when they first begin concealed carry is intentionally displaying their gun. Most people are proud they're able to carry a gun and want others to notice, so they "accidentally" give themselves away.
You may be proud, but don't put yourself in danger. It could be a fatal error. Think about it: If you wanted to rob a bank who is the first person you'd likely shoot? The armed guard, because he represents the immediate threat to the success of your mission. The same applies to you. If you've revealed yourself at a gas station where a robbery is about to occur, you will be the "guard" taken out first. It's happened before and will probably happen again. Don't become a statistic.
Once people get accustomed to carrying as a regular part of their routine, these intentional displays usually go away. We're then left with the real mistakes people make out of ignorance or sloppy control of their behaviors. ...

"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."
Couple things to note in there:
1. The specific mention of a militia being the reason for the need to bear arms.
2. The 2nd Amendment never mentions the word gun at all.
So, what exactly is the definition of "arms"?
In 1755 Dr. Johnson’s Dictionary of the English Language was first published. It defined “arms” as “weapons of offence, or armour of defence.”
Weapons of offence would seem to include pretty much anything and everything, from knives to nuclear weapons. The US has already seen fit to ban some weapons of offence so the 2nd Amendment clearly has not been interpreted strictly as meaning that the US cannot ban all "arms". Therefore, the 2nd Amendment does not guarantee citizens the right to own whatever weapons they choose.
So it then becomes a question of which weapons should be banned, which should be strictly regulated, and which should be lightly regulated or not at all. Like anything else, we should weigh an individual's right with society's right. When looked at in that manner, it becomes very difficult to justify why fully automatic or semi automatic rifles should be allowed. What purpose do they serve an individual? And why would that purpose outweigh the extreme damage those weapons have cased society??
Patrick thinks the Chamber of Commerce is the worst organization, and he may be correct, but the NRA is not far behind.
