Nebraska Senator Megan Hunt Says Owning Guns Isn't a God Given Right

About this video

Colion critiques Nebraska State Senator Megan Hunt’s tweet opposing a constitutional carry bill, in which she called gun rights a product of ‘slave-owning misogynistic founding fathers.’ Colion argues that Hunt misunderstands the Second Amendment, which he describes as protecting a natural right to self-defense rather than granting a new right. He contends that constitutional carry particularly benefits poor and marginalized communities who face expensive permitting barriers, and he points to the historical use of gun control laws to disarm Black Americans.

Key takeaways

• Colion argues that the Second Amendment protects a pre-existing natural right to self-defense and firearm ownership, rather than creating that right.
• Colion asserts that constitutional carry laws remove government permitting requirements for carrying firearms (though background checks for purchase remain), benefiting those without time or money for burdensome permit processes.
• Colion claims that historical gun control laws were designed to disarm Black Americans, and he views modern permit requirements as continuing barriers that disproportionately affect poor and minority communities.
