Government Says You Don’t Deserve Machine Guns, Here’s Why That Should Scare You!

About this video

Colion analyzes a federal court case in which government attorneys argue that machine guns are not protected by the Second Amendment because they are not in “common use” and are too dangerous for civilian ownership. He argues that the government is using circular logic—banning a category of weapons and then claiming they’re unprotected because nobody owns them. Colion contends that this legal strategy sets a dangerous precedent that could erode Second Amendment protections far beyond machine guns.

Key takeaways

• Colion argues the government contradicts itself by saying the Second Amendment protects militia use while claiming machine guns are too “militia-like” to be protected
• He criticizes what he describes as circular reasoning: the government banned machine guns in 1986, and now uses their rarity as proof they’re not in “common use” and thus unprotected
• Colion warns that accepting fear-based arguments and allowing regulations to redefine rights could lead to the erosion of core Second Amendment protections beyond just machine guns
