This Might Be the Dumbest Anti-Gun Argument Yet

About this video

Colion critiques a Virginia politician’s argument that heroic unarmed responses to mass shootings prove guns are unnecessary for self-defense. He argues this logic is backwards—victims at Virginia Tech were forced to be unarmed due to gun-free zone policies, not by choice—and contends the politician’s position reflects hypocrisy, as lawmakers enjoy armed security while denying citizens the same option. Colion frames armed self-defense as a moral responsibility rather than a moral failing.

Key takeaways

• Colion argues that celebrating unarmed sacrifice while opposing armed defense is morally inconsistent and disempowering to victims
• He points out that victims in gun-free zones like Virginia Tech were prohibited from carrying firearms, not voluntarily unarmed
• Colion criticizes the hypocrisy of politicians who enjoy armed security while arguing ordinary citizens don’t need guns for protection
