Mayor Says If You Own A Gun, You Should Be Ashamed Of Yourself

About this video

Colion responds to comments made by the mayor of Grand Rapids, Michigan, who stated that gun owners should be ashamed of themselves. Colion argues that this perspective is disconnected from reality and represents a childish understanding of self-defense. He contends that shaming law-abiding gun owners does nothing to address criminals, and defends the right to armed self-protection as a responsible choice for protecting one’s family.

Key takeaways

• Colion argues that shame only affects law-abiding citizens, not criminals, making such rhetoric ineffective and misdirected
• Colion teaches that owning a firearm for self-defense is about being prepared for the worst-case scenario, not about everyday tasks
• Colion asserts that relying solely on calling police during a home invasion is an inadequate protection plan, citing response time limitations
