Did The FBI Conceal Gun Violence Spike While Biden Was In Office?

About this video

Colion Noir interviews researcher John Lott about recent FBI crime data revisions and gun policy. Colion and Lott discuss what Lott describes as the FBI’s quiet revision of 2022 violent crime statistics (changing a reported 2.1% decrease to a 4.5% increase) without transparency, and Lott argues this created misleading media narratives. They also cover Colion’s and Lott’s views on Vice President Kamala Harris’s gun positions, judicial appointments under Trump, and what they see as threats to Second Amendment and First Amendment rights.

Key takeaways

• Lott reports that the FBI revised 2022 violent crime data from a decrease to an increase without adequate public disclosure, which he argues misled media coverage throughout the election year
• Colion and Lott both argue that rising gun ownership does not correlate with increased crime; Lott claims every jurisdiction that banned guns saw murder rates increase afterward
• Colion and Lott express concerns about potential Second Amendment restrictions under a Harris administration, citing what they describe as her long record of supporting gun bans and registry measures
