MRCOLIONNOIR: Joe Biden Shotgun Response
About this video
Colion critiques Joe Biden’s widely-quoted advice to use a double-barrel shotgun for home defense, arguing that Biden’s firearms knowledge is outdated and tactically flawed. He breaks down why, in his view, Biden’s suggestion to fire warning shots is dangerous and ineffective, and explains his position that an AR-15 is actually easier to use and more practical for defensive situations than a shotgun. Colion frames Biden’s statements as uninformed and rooted in outdated stereotypes rather than modern self-defense realities.
Key takeaways
- Colion argues that firing warning shots with a shotgun, as Biden suggested, is tactically unsound because it leaves the defender with an empty gun and no certainty of deterring an attacker.
- He contends that AR-15 rifles are easier to shoot and manage under stress than shotguns, especially for smaller or recoil-sensitive users, and hold more rounds for follow-up shots.
- Colion emphasizes that modern threats may not be deterred by intimidation tactics, and that defensive firearm advice should be grounded in current realities, not outdated Western movie scenarios.
