Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Timcast IRL - China Implements "Internal Rear" SWAB COVID Tests, 3D Printed Guns Are EVERYWHERE

00:00:00.000 you you

00:01:02.000 China is taking COVID very seriously And many of us have been wondering, how is it that their numbers have been so low this whole time?

00:01:12.000 Europe has been devastated.

00:01:14.000 The riots in Europe, in the Netherlands particularly, are so bad that one mayor is saying it's like civil war, or I'm sorry, that we're on the verge of civil war over the COVID-restricted lockdowns.

00:01:26.000 In the US, we've seen widespread riots and anger.

00:01:28.000 Well, I would say the riots have been primarily fueled by other things, but definitely many people have said that being pent up over the lockdowns and the restrictions has made people kind of angry and go nuts, and there's been a lot of riots because of it.

00:01:40.000 But in Europe, we've seen a lot.

00:01:41.000 In Tunisia, we've seen over 600 people arrested.

00:01:44.000 And the question is, once again, how has China managed to keep everything so tame? 0.75

00:01:49.000 Well, it's simple.

00:01:50.000 Better testing.

00:01:52.000 Donald Trump should have figured this out.

00:01:54.000 With better testing, we know exactly how many people have COVID and how to restrict them.

00:01:58.000 And it was simple. 0.84

00:01:59.000 China's been anal swabbing everybody to get a better reading. 1.00

00:02:03.000 I'm not kidding. 0.99

00:02:04.000 It's an actual story from Newsweek. 0.99

00:02:07.000 China has been anal... 0.99

00:02:09.000 Anal swabbing their citizens because they say it's a better test. 1.00

00:02:13.000 And I'm sorry, Luke, he brought this up to me and I said, that's not true.

00:02:17.000 I literally ran in the house.

00:02:18.000 I was like, I told you so.

00:02:19.000 It's coming.

00:02:20.000 It was here.

00:02:21.000 If you remember a couple of days ago, I was here.

00:02:22.000 I was like, what's next? 0.99

00:02:23.000 They're going to literally start shoving things up of your buttocks. 1.00

00:02:26.000 I said this on the show. 0.99

00:02:27.000 I said this for years.

00:02:28.000 I ran inside after I saw this Newsweek article.

00:02:30.000 And I was like, it's here.

00:02:31.000 It's finally here.

00:02:33.000 It was coming to the United States.

00:02:34.000 He was like, it's happening.

00:02:35.000 I was like, I told you.

00:02:36.000 And it's not probing.

00:02:38.000 It's not, sorry, it's... what was the term that they used?

00:02:41.000 Anal... swabbing? 0.99

00:02:43.000 No, it's anal probing, since it goes in two inches inside of you. 0.99

00:02:46.000 And then they say they rotate it. 0.97

00:02:48.000 Yes.

00:02:48.000 And I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

00:02:49.000 Someone made a very inappropriate joke saying two inches, that's a lot in Asia.

00:02:52.000 I'm not gonna say who said that, but it's not swabbing, it's probing.

00:02:57.000 The point is...

00:02:59.000 When I heard this, I started laughing because I'm like, it kind of just sounds like they're pushing our butt to see how much we're willing to accept before we finally lose our minds.

00:03:06.000 But apparently in China, everybody's okay with it. 0.99

00:03:09.000 Is it forced anal swabbing? 0.99

00:03:11.000 In China, everything's forced, okay? 0.93

00:03:13.000 They have a social credit score, you sneeze the wrong way, your credit's gonna go down, and you can't even go see a movie anymore, and your internet's gonna be shut down.

00:03:20.000 You've gotta get tested in order to go in buildings, you get a phone with a barcode, and so if you wanna get your test, and the only thing they're doing is shoving stuff up people's butts, guess what?

00:03:28.000 It's either that or nothing.

00:03:30.000 So welcome to the brave new world.

00:03:32.000 China's doing it. 0.93

00:03:33.000 Look, but China also welded people into their homes and stuff like that, so... I don't know what America would be willing to accept with this, but, uh... Dr. Fauci says, hey!

00:03:43.000 Two masks!

00:03:44.000 Oh my god, why didn't we realize this?

00:03:46.000 If you wear one mask, just wear two.

00:03:49.000 And then I'm kind of like, well, Dr. Fauci should, what about three?

00:03:53.000 Oh, that makes, I'm not kidding.

00:03:55.000 Dr. Fauci is now saying we should wear two masks.

00:03:58.000 Okay, sure, whatever.

00:04:00.000 I swear, they're just pushing buttons and laughing, like, to figure out how much we're gonna take before we finally snap.

00:04:06.000 And things are getting crazy. 0.96

00:04:07.000 I think if they start anal-probing people here, they're gonna go crazy. 0.97

00:04:10.000 No, I don't. 0.97

00:04:10.000 You don't think so? 0.97

00:04:11.000 I don't think so.

00:04:12.000 What if it's forced, though?

00:04:13.000 That's what I'm concerned about.

00:04:14.000 Is that they're holding them down and they were like, they were doing this?

00:04:16.000 Dude, they're already saying that your kids can't go to school.

00:04:18.000 So they're like, your mouth is no good.

00:04:19.000 I mean, some people might lose it.

00:04:22.000 But they're already saying like, your kids can't go to school, you can't go on planes, unless you get your vaccine.

00:04:27.000 Was it United Airlines said all their employees have to get vaccinated now if they want to work there?

00:04:30.000 And people are just like, alright.

00:04:32.000 You know?

00:04:33.000 Look, I got no problem with vaccines, to be completely honest.

00:04:35.000 I just don't like the idea of forced anything.

00:04:38.000 So if people are going to get some invasive forced medication or whatever, then I think if they're willing to accept that, come on, man.

00:04:43.000 The vaccine goes in you, it's there forever. 0.98

00:04:45.000 And if you got no problem with that, then do you think people are really going to complain about having a swab shoved up their butt? 0.98

00:04:50.000 Some people might. 0.97

00:04:51.000 Some people are complaining about the vaccine.

00:04:53.000 I'm just saying it's crazy.

00:04:54.000 Okay, anyway, there's a bunch of other stories because we got in, uh, in, you know, like I mentioned in the Netherlands, there's mass riots.

00:04:59.000 So we'll talk about this.

00:05:01.000 We've got, uh, the FBI is now saying they're going to actually be charging people with sedition.

00:05:06.000 Xi Jinping was the talk of the town over at Davos.

00:05:08.000 Liberals are all clapping and cheering for that guy.

00:05:11.000 And, uh, this is interesting.

00:05:13.000 The Oregon Republican Party says the Capitol was a false flag, which is a bold statement the media is already screaming about.

00:05:19.000 So we'll get to all this stuff, and then, um, maybe we'll get to this, there's like a lost, um, a lost, what is it, Native American or whatever?

00:05:27.000 Indigenous fortress to fight the Russians found?

00:05:30.000 And I think it'd be fun to talk about some weird and wild stuff, so we'll get into that.

00:05:32.000 Ladies and gentlemen, that was a long intro, and I gotta introduce, we have a great guest, we have Alex Holliday of Control Pew.

00:05:39.000 You do something, you do a thing.

00:05:40.000 Tell me what that thing is, Alex.

00:05:42.000 Yeah, so I'm part of a community that design and 3D print firearms, and we release them to the internet for free, and people can make them at home.

00:05:52.000 You're teaching, you're giving people designs to make guns at home?

00:05:54.000 Yes.

00:05:55.000 Is that legal?

00:05:55.000 Yes.

00:05:56.000 Wow.

00:05:57.000 So, in most places, and federally speaking, it is entirely legal to manufacture your own firearms at home for personal use.

00:06:03.000 We were talking about this a couple episodes ago, and we were talking about the Liberator.

00:06:09.000 And I was like, isn't the 3D gun like it fires once and like it breaks or something?

00:06:12.000 And then people in the chat were like, dude, you are so far behind on the current tech.

00:06:17.000 And I was like, well, I don't know.

00:06:18.000 And so we got someone who does know.

00:06:19.000 There you go.

00:06:20.000 He's chilling.

00:06:20.000 And so we'll definitely talk about that stuff for sure.

00:06:22.000 Of course, we got Luke talking about anal swabs. 0.99

00:06:24.000 He's here. 0.98

00:06:25.000 I've been warning about anal swabs and probings for 15 years. 0.95

00:06:29.000 I'm an independent journalist, old man that's been doing work on the YouTube channel, We Are Change. 0.96

00:06:34.000 Check me out there if you want to see years of warning you that the anal probes are coming. 0.88

00:06:40.000 They're here in China and it's only going to get worse. 1.00

00:06:44.000 Ian's chilling. 0.99

00:06:44.000 The anal prophecy has come true. 0.99

00:06:46.000 Luke, you were right. 0.98

00:06:48.000 Luke's anal prophecy. 0.68

00:06:50.000 Alex, what's the best 3D printer or printers to get to make guns?

00:06:55.000 If you're on a tight budget, if you only have, you know, you can get in for 200 bucks, if that's all you've got to spend, get an Ender 3 Pro.

00:07:02.000 You can get them off Amazon, takes like three days to your door, and you're basically set.

00:07:08.000 If you've got a little more money to spend, go for an Ender 5 Pro.

00:07:12.000 It's a little more robust of a machine, gets you a little further, but they're still, they're basically the same machine.

00:07:17.000 It's just like ABS, like plastic printing?

00:07:19.000 Yeah, exactly that.

00:07:20.000 But you still need metal parts, don't you?

00:07:22.000 Yeah, and all of the designs we have now require some metal parts like a bolt or a barrel, but we've also figured out how to easily manufacture these with common off-the-shelf parts.

00:07:35.000 You can order mail order from China.

00:07:38.000 So it's really like we've solved all the big problems to get to the gun.

00:07:43.000 And you were talking about something, I don't know if it's a top-secret project, Your secret weapon.

00:07:48.000 It's a little secret.

00:07:49.000 It's been talked about a little bit in the back channels.

00:07:54.000 We'll save the secret talk for later once we get into the nitty gritty.

00:07:57.000 Don't forget, Sour Patch Lettuce is here.

00:07:58.000 She's pushing all the buttons. 1.00

00:07:59.000 You're in the corner.

00:07:59.000 I'm just thinking about colonoscopies as we're talking about probing people.

00:08:02.000 So I don't know if there's any overlap.

00:08:04.000 But people will do whatever you tell them to do if they think it's necessary.

00:08:09.000 Before we get into all the news, make sure you go to TimCast.com and become a member.

00:08:12.000 Ladies and gentlemen, we got top secret posts.

00:08:14.000 Actually, it's not secret.

00:08:15.000 It's members only posts, and we made sure to put the members at TimCast email to make sure everybody gets through without error.

00:08:21.000 We did a segment recently about the Portland Mayor pepper spraying some dude, and we kind of just ragged on him for quite a bit and all that stuff.

00:08:27.000 But once I got another video of Alex Jones waking up Luke, oh, I'm definitely going to milk that for all it's worth, Luke.

00:08:33.000 It's funny.

00:08:34.000 It's not political.

00:08:35.000 It's not news.

00:08:36.000 It's literally just watching some silliness.

00:08:38.000 I'm still taking suggestions on who I should surprise Tim Pool with when he's sleeping, so feel free to message me that on my Twitter account, LukeWeirdChange.

00:08:47.000 Become a member, help support the show, because we're going to be expanding the members-only content.

00:08:51.000 Of course, this show is always going to be free, and if you really want to make sure that, in the event we get banned, we still exist in some form, this is the way to do it. 0.93

00:08:57.000 That being said, my friends, let's talk about anal swabs. 0.99

00:09:00.000 Newsweek.com reports COVID anal swabs for Beijing residents more accurate, says Chinese expert. 0.90

00:09:08.000 I'll tell you right away, I'm not going to bury the lead.

00:09:10.000 They've been doing this for a long time now.

00:09:12.000 So, you know, Luke is talking about some prophecy.

00:09:14.000 It's actually already happening.

00:09:16.000 Check this out.

00:09:17.000 They say more than a million Beijing residents undergoing coronavirus testing amid a fresh outbreak have been administered anal swabs, which are considered more accurate and raise the chances of detecting COVID-19, said a Chinese disease specialist.

00:09:30.000 I gotta stop right there.

00:09:32.000 Okay, you know, I don't believe it.

00:09:33.000 The swabbing in the nose makes sense because it's a respiratory disease. 0.99

00:09:36.000 How does it make sense that COVID's in your butt? 0.99

00:09:38.000 In the mucus? 1.00

00:09:39.000 Well, yeah, yeah, because like you cough it up, right? 1.00

00:09:41.000 Well, your butt has mucus in it. 1.00

00:09:43.000 Does that mean COVID... 0.99

00:09:45.000 All right.

00:09:45.000 You guys really want to get down to it.

00:09:47.000 It coats the feces. 0.57

00:09:49.000 Does that mean you fart COVID?

00:09:50.000 Yeah.

00:09:51.000 Most undoubtedly.

00:09:52.000 No, I don't know about that.

00:09:53.000 I think there was an article.

00:09:55.000 I don't remember.

00:09:55.000 I think Lydia, you remember this more.

00:09:57.000 Wasn't there an article that says that you transmit COVID through farts?

00:10:01.000 You do.

00:10:02.000 And it can be an STI.

00:10:03.000 Did you know that?

00:10:04.000 I keep telling you to stop farting all over the place.

00:10:06.000 Hey, hey, hey, hey.

00:10:07.000 We're going to talk about that.

00:10:09.000 All right, they say the key districts of Daxing and Dongcheng began a mass testing drive on Friday after a nine-year-old boy tested positive for the more virulent strain of the virus first discovered in London and the southeast of England last month.

00:10:21.000 Health authorities in the Chinese capital said they were aiming to screen more than 2 million people in 48 hours, among them around 1.6 million inhabitants of Daxing.

00:10:30.000 were to be given antibody tests as well as throat, nasal, and rectal nucleic acid swabs.

00:10:36.000 Wonderful.

00:10:37.000 Anal swabs have been in use since last year, including in the major port city of Shanghai, but the method is so far reserved for individuals in potential COVID-19 hotspots, according to an infectious disease expert quoted by China state broadcaster CCTV on Saturday.

00:10:52.000 Quote, Since the start of the coronavirus outbreak, we've tested for the virus using mainly throat swabs.

00:10:57.000 Its characteristics are convenience and speed, so it's suitable for large-scale testing.

00:11:03.000 Said Beijing Yuan Hospital's Li Tongzheng, nasal swabs are more accurate than throat swabs, but nasal swabs can be uncomfortable.

00:11:11.000 Ah!

00:11:11.000 Well, there's a solution to that discomfort.

00:11:14.000 In some asymptomatic cases or in individuals with mild symptoms, they tend to recover from the illness very quickly.

00:11:20.000 It's possible that there will be no trace of the virus in their throat after three to five days.

00:11:24.000 What we've found is that in some infected patients, the coronavirus survives for a longer period of time in their digestive tract or excrement than in their respiratory tract.

00:11:32.000 Couldn't you just take a dump in a cup and give them the cup and leave?

00:11:36.000 No. 1.00

00:11:37.000 They want to jam stuff up your butt. 0.99

00:11:39.000 It's got to be fresh. 0.99

00:11:42.000 We're laughing at this.

00:11:43.000 It's like laughing as the Titanic is sinking.

00:11:45.000 Do you have a picture of the swab by any chance?

00:11:50.000 I posted about this story and everyone's sending me very inappropriate pictures of what allegedly is the swab.

00:11:55.000 Pictures of Cuomo from CNN?

00:11:57.000 And other items that I can't describe here on this very family-friendly show.

00:12:02.000 But again, the medical experts here are saying that this is going to help the rate of detectability and lower the chance of misdiagnoses.

00:12:11.000 So yes, the article also goes on.

00:12:16.000 I have an image of the swab here just to show everybody.

00:12:20.000 Oh, now I see the screen from Lydia's computer now.

00:12:27.000 Chris Cuomo.

00:12:28.000 I'm kidding by the way, that was CNN when CNN is doing news and they're like, look at

00:12:33.000 this prop comedy we're doing.

00:12:34.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah, we get it.

00:12:36.000 But also, most importantly, the article goes on and says, on Friday, a resident of Tangshan in Hubei province, about 120 miles east of Beijing, told CCTV that she was given double rectal swabs, probes, they're really probes because they go inside to two inches inside of you, as part of a city-wide testing in her area.

00:12:55.000 She said each swab took just under 10 seconds.

00:12:59.000 So, You were talking about people being pent up, and they're definitely going to have to loosen up with all these new government testings.

00:13:07.000 You were questioning, is it mandatory?

00:13:10.000 Is it voluntary?

00:13:11.000 In China, nothing is voluntary.

00:13:13.000 If you make fun of the government, Government officials will literally take you away at night, sit you down in a chair where you're handcuffed with your feet and hands, and will interrogate you until you apologize for making fun of the government.

00:13:27.000 If you're lucky.

00:13:29.000 Otherwise, a lot of people just get their organs harvested in China for criticizing the government.

00:13:33.000 And, of course, things like this.

00:13:35.000 Having the wrong religion. 1.00

00:13:37.000 Yeah.

00:13:37.000 This, of course, is not something that is going to be voluntary.

00:13:40.000 There's a viral video of a dude in a chair with braces.

00:13:44.000 And the cops are like, so why did you say you don't like police?

00:13:47.000 And he's like, I'm so sorry.

00:13:49.000 It's all in Mandarin.

00:13:49.000 He's like, I'm so sorry.

00:13:50.000 I didn't mean it.

00:13:51.000 I was just drinking.

00:13:51.000 And they're like, you were drinking?

00:13:53.000 You think that absolves you of responsibility?

00:13:55.000 You thought it was okay to make fun of the police?

00:13:57.000 And he's begging them, I'm so sorry.

00:13:58.000 It's a black room.

00:13:59.000 And he's bolted down to a chair as they're like threatening him and demanding he apologize and say he'll never do it again.

00:14:06.000 There's another video where a woman turns her phone camera on and puts it down, you hear a knock on the door, and then cops come in and just randomly arrest her.

00:14:12.000 And she's like, what's happening?

00:14:13.000 And they're like, shut up, you're under arrest.

00:14:15.000 I think she was one of the people warning the world about COVID.

00:14:18.000 Because a lot of nurses, a lot of doctors, a lot of lawyers, a lot of journalists went to jail and are still missing because they were telling people of the world, hey, there's this mystery virus going around last year.

00:14:30.000 And then the Chinese government was hiding that fact, of course, making sure the world was unprepared.

00:14:35.000 when they knew. There's some reports and intelligence from November that the Chinese

00:14:39.000 government knew that there was this new strain of coronavirus that was going around that they

00:14:44.000 knew was going to be a major issue. They instructed Chinese nationals and other countries to start 1.00

00:14:49.000 collecting PPE, buying it up and sending it back to China so that they would have it, 1.00

00:14:54.000 other countries wouldn't. That's what they do. 0.93

00:14:59.000 I mean, I can't blame them for fighting for their own personal interest or their own national interests, but I can blame them for the freaky authoritarianism and all that stuff.

00:15:06.000 Now listen, here in the United States, we don't have these anal probe things going on.

00:15:11.000 Yet.

00:15:12.000 Considering Xi Jinping was the talk of the town over at Davos, I wouldn't be surprised if they come back and they're like, you're not a bigot, are you?

00:15:19.000 Stop being so prude and accept your probe.

00:15:21.000 Okay, well, we don't have that going on for now, but we do have Fauci saying two masks.

00:15:26.000 Why didn't anybody think of this?

00:15:28.000 We were all wearing one mask to stop the spit from coming out.

00:15:31.000 Now Fauci is talking about two masks. 0.98

00:15:33.000 Perhaps he's talking about wearing a mask on your butt to stop the butt-covid from coming out, but he's not. 0.98

00:15:37.000 He's talking about wearing two masks on your face. 0.97

00:15:40.000 The New York Post says two face masks are better than one, Dr. Fauci said Monday.

00:15:45.000 The infectious disease specialist advised that double masking is a logical way to curb the spread of the coronavirus.

00:15:51.000 If you have a physical covering with one layer, you put another layer on, it just makes common sense that it likely would be more effective, Fauci said on the Today Show.

00:16:00.000 The White House advisor explained that face coverings prevent respiratory droplets and the virus from spreading to other people, as well as protecting the wearer.

00:16:07.000 Oh, now they're saying it protects you.

00:16:11.000 He's saying it would likely be better, so he's not saying it would be?

00:16:13.000 He doesn't know.

00:16:14.000 He doesn't know.

00:16:15.000 Yeah.

00:16:15.000 Well, this is also the same guy that just a few months ago was telling us not to wear masks.

00:16:21.000 It's not safe.

00:16:22.000 You don't know what you're doing, especially if you're not a medical professional.

00:16:25.000 Stop buying and using all the masks.

00:16:27.000 And, you know, what's the point?

00:16:28.000 If someone farts and toots anyway, you're going to get COVID.

00:16:31.000 So what's the point of having a mask?

00:16:33.000 Well, more specifically, his tone.

00:16:35.000 So this was this was last year when a bunch of conservatives were like, Go quick, go buy masks!

00:16:41.000 And the media was like, oh jeez, don't buy masks.

00:16:43.000 And the Chinese government was buying up a lot of the masks.

00:16:45.000 Fauci's attitude wasn't just, well, you don't need to buy masks and here's why.

00:16:49.000 It was really condescending.

00:16:50.000 It was like, oh, you don't need masks.

00:16:52.000 Oh, come on. 0.87

00:16:53.000 What's up?

00:16:53.000 A mask isn't going to protect you.

00:16:54.000 Don't bother.

00:16:55.000 And then we even had the Surgeon General saying the same thing.

00:16:58.000 And then sure enough, something weird happened where like conservatives on the left flipped on the issue.

00:17:01.000 And then all of a sudden, conservatives are the ones not wearing masks and the left were the ones wearing masks.

00:17:06.000 I have no idea how that happened.

00:17:07.000 There you go, probably because Fauci said it, I guess, and then Trump didn't wear a mask, and then there you go.

00:17:12.000 Look, I see this story about Fauci saying we should wear two masks, and I know it's not the same as, you know, shoving stuff up, you know, people's butts, but it really does feel like they're just pushing our buttons to see, like, how long until someone just finally gives up and just, like, snaps, goes crazy.

00:17:28.000 Well, people in Holland, it looks like a lot of them are snapping already, especially with a lot of the civil unrest that's happening there.

00:17:35.000 There's been a lot of protests all over the world that have not been talked about.

00:17:39.000 They're not getting a lot of media coverage.

00:17:41.000 It looks like, you know, the larger algorithms aren't really even interested in them.

00:17:44.000 But I think, you know, I agree somewhat with your point there, but we have to understand a lot of these so-called medical professionals, a lot of these experts, they were wrong from the very beginning.

00:17:55.000 Whether it was their projections, whether it was their recommendations, they were flat out wrong and they haven't admitted it.

00:18:02.000 it. They haven't had any accountability. They haven't faced any repercussions for actions that

00:18:07.000 did lead to some severe ramifications that they should be held responsible for. And unless that

00:18:12.000 happens, it's hard to believe them from here. In the beginning, everyone believed them.

00:18:16.000 That's my issue is you've got a lot of people who don't trust the medical professionals and

00:18:20.000 like the experts on COVID and stuff. Yet when you talk about how Fauci was wrong early on,

00:18:25.000 they say, well, science is always wrong.

00:18:27.000 That's the beauty of science.

00:18:27.000 You can get it wrong and you fix it later.

00:18:29.000 And I'm like, that's great.

00:18:30.000 So you're admitting that there's reason for people to doubt the scientists?

00:18:34.000 Because look, for the most part, I think the only thing a sane person can do is just follow the standard guidance as it is.

00:18:39.000 It's the best you can do.

00:18:41.000 There's this movie, I don't know if you guys have ever seen it, called The Man from Earth.

00:18:43.000 You ever hear of it?

00:18:45.000 It's about, uh, it's like a one-shot film where they're all in just a room.

00:18:49.000 And long story short, it's this guy who is immortal.

00:18:53.000 And he tells all these stories about how he's lived through all these different periods.

00:18:56.000 And they're like, you must be the smartest guy in the world.

00:18:58.000 And he's like, why?

00:18:59.000 I only know what everyone else knows.

00:19:00.000 I don't, like, know everything.

00:19:02.000 And a lot of the old information is bad.

00:19:05.000 And that's the way I see it.

00:19:05.000 Like, for me, look, if they come out and they say wear a mask, I'll be like, what am I supposed to do?

00:19:09.000 Pretend like I'm smarter than these actors?

00:19:11.000 No, I got no problem wearing a mask.

00:19:13.000 But come on, when you come out and you're like, now wear two masks?

00:19:16.000 It's like, I'm already wearing a mask, dude.

00:19:17.000 And besides, what mask are you talking about?

00:19:20.000 Like, what if I'm wearing like a crazy scarf wrapped around all the way my face where I put something else over it?

00:19:24.000 It's just a nonsensical statement.

00:19:26.000 We're already wearing masks, dude.

00:19:27.000 Yeah.

00:19:28.000 You would think they would talk about vitamin D. You would think they would talk about- Well, he did, he did, he did.

00:19:32.000 Fauci's told people to get vitamin D for sure.

00:19:34.000 Okay, that's a big surprise because a lot of government officials, a lot of foreign policy hasn't even addressed that basic factor of health, of sleep, of stress, of diet, of exercise, of going out there, getting proper sun, getting proper vitamin D.

00:19:49.000 And if he did mention it, there's also a lot of scientists screaming about this from the very beginning, since there are results showing that vitamin deficient people have a horrible time dealing with this.

00:20:00.000 A lot of people are extremely vitamin deficient, vitamin D deficient, especially with all the lockdowns that have taken their ability of even going outside.

00:20:10.000 You know what I'm gonna do?

00:20:10.000 I'm gonna clean my mask.

00:20:12.000 When was the last time you guys washed your mask?

00:20:14.000 What do you mean washed?

00:20:15.000 What is that?

00:20:16.000 Give it some soap. 0.98

00:20:17.000 Rinse it off.

00:20:18.000 Squeeze it out.

00:20:19.000 Let it air dry.

00:20:22.000 What a novel idea.

00:20:23.000 Time to wash your mask, folks.

00:20:25.000 But that is something people bring up a lot.

00:20:27.000 I was kidding, by the way.

00:20:27.000 Yeah, that people keep reusing the same mask and they're getting festering and filthy.

00:20:31.000 Two times.

00:20:32.000 There are videos of people getting, like, crud on their mouths and stuff.

00:20:34.000 Dude, wash your mask.

00:20:35.000 I mean, Fauci, tell people to wash their masks.

00:20:38.000 A lot of people wear disposable ones, to be honest, though.

00:20:41.000 I guess that's what he's saying, like, wear a disposable one under your permanent one.

00:20:44.000 Oh, that's specifically what he was saying?

00:20:46.000 I don't know, but it's like a picture of people doing it.

00:20:48.000 It's just the weirdest thing.

00:20:49.000 Does he have stock in the mask industry?

00:20:51.000 Maybe.

00:20:52.000 Yeah, yeah, there you go.

00:20:53.000 In the Chinese manufacturing plants that produce these goods.

00:20:56.000 The same masks that protect you from the virus that came out of China?

00:21:00.000 Yeah, so I'm starting to think that they told us not to wear masks at the beginning so that China could buy all our masks up and we wouldn't be like getting in their way.

00:21:07.000 And I'm curious why he doesn't, why he's telling people to wear double masks and why he's not telling them to wear like the higher technology masks that might actually protect you from the virus.

00:21:16.000 Or telling people not to fart.

00:21:17.000 Right.

00:21:18.000 Exactly.

00:21:19.000 Keep it together.

00:21:20.000 The joke now is that Fauci's eventually going to tell us all to wrap our... What was it?

00:21:23.000 Babylon Bee, I think?

00:21:24.000 Fauci says everyone should wrap themselves in plastic to protect themselves from the virus.

00:21:27.000 It's like a woman and she's all mashed up and tangled in plastic wrap and can't move. 1.00

00:21:31.000 I'm glad you said it because I was gonna make that joke.

00:21:36.000 I mean my joke was that, and I think I made this joke a year ago, in like 2030 everyone will be wearing gray jumpsuits with no pockets and they'll have shaved heads and they'll carry nothing on their person.

00:21:47.000 They'll own nothing and they'll just walk to and from like public transport and work and And then I realized that although that would probably be fairly extreme, it's not extreme enough for where we're headed in terms of critical race theory.

00:21:58.000 People would have to be, you would have this white box over your body that you held, so no one would know how tall you were.

00:22:06.000 And you'd have a voice modulator where you would type inside your box and then it would, you'd do a computer voice.

00:22:11.000 No one would know your gender.

00:22:13.000 No one would know how tall you are.

00:22:14.000 Nobody would know your race.

00:22:16.000 Nobody would know what you sounded like.

00:22:17.000 And that's the only way to ever actually achieve some kind of equality.

00:22:20.000 But then you have the problem of some people just being naturally more talented or faster.

00:22:23.000 What do you do?

00:22:24.000 And then we get into that.

00:22:25.000 Me Captain.

00:22:26.000 No, no, it's that book.

00:22:27.000 Harrison Bergeron.

00:22:28.000 Yeah, where the beautiful people have to like, what do they do?

00:22:31.000 They wear terrible makeup or they like wear bags over the heads and the really good people at dancing get weighted down or they get their feet cut off.

00:22:38.000 The smart people have things in their ears that scream random sounds to interrupt their thinking so they can't be smart.

00:22:43.000 Well, they're already starting to cut back on the gifted programs in many public schools all over the United States, which I find kind of crazy to do so.

00:22:53.000 They're doing it because of equality, but you're preventing people from getting a better education than they normally would.

00:23:01.000 and you're holding people back because of other people not doing that well.

00:23:05.000 I mean it just doesn't make any logical sense to me.

00:23:07.000 You're saying you don't believe in equality?

00:23:09.000 No I don't.

00:23:10.000 You're saying that you're a bigot?

00:23:14.000 Uh no I'm not saying that.

00:23:15.000 I'm just saying a lot of people have gone absolutely mad with this idea that

00:23:19.000 we're all supposed to be equal.

00:23:21.000 When you look at nature, I mean, nothing's equal in nature, and it's all about survival of the fittest.

00:23:26.000 And I think we as humanity will progress once we understand that and open ourselves up to that kind of understanding, which will help us move forward in life more accurately and correctly.

00:23:36.000 This is something that Michael Malice brought up.

00:23:38.000 He said, how you define the new right is this.

00:23:40.000 Let me ask you a question, Alex.

00:23:42.000 Do you think that some people are better than others?

00:23:45.000 Yes.

00:23:46.000 That's it.

00:23:48.000 So he said, the right will tell you yes, and the left will give you an explanation.

00:23:52.000 Or like, you know, justify or something.

00:23:54.000 And I just said, my answer was like, simply yes.

00:23:57.000 But it's an interesting way to define it.

00:23:59.000 And I see his point.

00:24:00.000 But I'm like, I'm not going to argue with you.

00:24:03.000 It's a very simple statement.

00:24:04.000 Some people are better than others.

00:24:06.000 Now, if you want to get into specifics, some people are better at basketball than others.

00:24:09.000 It's very obvious.

00:24:11.000 But the left views it from a very, like, identitarian view.

00:24:14.000 Like, when you ask them, are some people better than others, they take it to a racial or gender or, like, you know, inherent identity place.

00:24:22.000 Whereas my initial reaction was, like, that's a very broad question that could mean a bunch of different things.

00:24:27.000 Some people are better at printing guns than I am, and some people know a lot more, are better at me than answering gun trivia than I am.

00:24:34.000 Yeah, absolutely.

00:24:36.000 You know, it reminds me, like, when I was little, I would always hear, like, these teenage girls use the word ignorant. 0.93

00:24:41.000 They'd be like, that's so ignorant. 1.00

00:24:42.000 You're so ignorant. 1.00

00:24:44.000 And I'm like, do you know what ignorant means? 1.00

00:24:46.000 It means, like, not understanding or, like, lacking knowledge. 0.89

00:24:48.000 And they're like, no, it means rude.

00:24:50.000 And I'm like, no, it doesn't.

00:24:51.000 Like, I understand the concept you think you're using, the context you think you're using it in.

00:24:55.000 But I was like, everyone is ignorant in some form and they would get all angry about it. 1.00

00:25:00.000 Wasn't it annoying when you were young, how like sometimes popular people would be stupid and they'd say stupid stuff like that. 0.99

00:25:08.000 And you'd be like, uh, have to just deal with it because they were like part of the gang, the popular gang. 0.99

00:25:14.000 I mean, they were smart. 0.99

00:25:15.000 They were really dumb, unpopular kids too. 0.99

00:25:18.000 And they were, I don't know, where I grew up, it was kind of a mixed bag. 1.00

00:25:20.000 It's just so frustrating when the people that are like lauded by the crowd are not necessarily the smartest people.

00:25:25.000 What are they lauded by the crowd for?

00:25:27.000 Because they're beautiful?

00:25:28.000 Because they're good at sport?

00:25:29.000 Because they're fast?

00:25:29.000 I don't know.

00:25:30.000 There you go.

00:25:30.000 Well, not everybody is smart.

00:25:31.000 But then they'd say stuff like, ignorance means... But that's the important point about the question.

00:25:38.000 Are some people better than others? 1.00

00:25:39.000 You could be stupid, but strong as an ox. 1.00

00:25:42.000 And then you have like... Right. 1.00

00:25:44.000 Well, some people are better at certain things than others, but those other people might be better at certain things than them.

00:25:49.000 So to say that some people are better than others is not accurate, I don't think.

00:25:53.000 It is.

00:25:54.000 No, it's situational.

00:25:55.000 Like, you might be better at shooting guns, but I might be better at doing math.

00:25:58.000 So it doesn't mean that you're better than me or I'm better than you.

00:26:00.000 Yes, it does.

00:26:01.000 We're both better than each other, so it's redundant.

00:26:03.000 This is exactly the point I was just making.

00:26:06.000 When you ask someone if some people are better than others, I'm not making a judgment on a person's value.

00:26:11.000 I'm analyzing a very simple statement about whether some people are better than others.

00:26:16.000 But that doesn't make sense, because if you're better than me at something, and I'm better than you at something, then we're both better than each other.

00:26:20.000 It cancels... So people are better than each other.

00:26:22.000 So you couldn't say that I'm better than you, you couldn't say that you're better than me, so the answer would be no.

00:26:26.000 But you can't equate, like, skateboarding with shooting guns or different things.

00:26:30.000 You could say some people are better at certain things than other people.

00:26:33.000 This is exactly the point.

00:26:34.000 You're overanalyzing the question.

00:26:35.000 No, I'm analyzing the question.

00:26:37.000 No, you're overanalyzing it.

00:26:38.000 I'm not.

00:26:38.000 I'm simply giving you a factual analysis of the question.

00:26:42.000 I think you don't understand Michael Malice's question.

00:26:44.000 His question is too simplistic.

00:26:45.000 On purpose.

00:26:46.000 The point is the right will simply say yes, and the left will give you an explanation.

00:26:50.000 And that's exactly right.

00:26:51.000 Whereas we view it very simply, you are going into great detail about what quantifies certain things, and that's new right versus new left.

00:26:59.000 That's exactly his point.

00:27:01.000 Okay, I don't think I'm on the left, personally.

00:27:03.000 But to Michael Malice's question, you would be.

00:27:06.000 Thanks, Mike.

00:27:08.000 Well, I guess it would be probably better for Michael to more accurately define, you know, how that works.

00:27:14.000 But I understand, you know, it's when I ask this of like general lefties, they'll start saying like, well, what do you mean by better?

00:27:21.000 And like, well, not everybody.

00:27:22.000 And it's like, OK, there you go.

00:27:24.000 Like you say no more.

00:27:25.000 That's the point.

00:27:25.000 You know, different different worldviews and different like, I guess, as who made this point?

00:27:32.000 Who was on the show?

00:27:33.000 Oh, Matt Brainerd.

00:27:34.000 Inductive reasoning versus deductive reasoning is like, you know, your emotions versus logic, etc.

00:27:39.000 and things like that.

00:27:40.000 But how about we derail entirely back to the discussion about... Should we talk about the riots in Holland and the civil war coming to the Netherlands?

00:27:46.000 Yeah, and tie it in with guns, because Alex is here and I want to know about... Well, they don't have guns.

00:27:51.000 They don't.

00:27:52.000 No, but they could.

00:27:53.000 They sure could.

00:27:54.000 They could.

00:27:54.000 Well, I don't know if that would be a good thing or not.

00:27:57.000 I mean, perhaps it's a good thing for individuals to have the ability to defend themselves.

00:28:03.000 I think in the context that I'm trying to say is when people are out in the streets fighting and, you know, fighting, you know, there's fear of a civil war, maybe we don't want people escalating that point.

00:28:10.000 The problem is one side already has guns and they're using them.

00:28:14.000 So, I'm not saying they're using live rounds on the people in the Netherlands, but here's the story.

00:28:18.000 The Daily Mail says lockdown fury sparks a third night of violence in Holland, with hundreds of protesters looting shops, torching cars, and battling police.

00:28:27.000 The Netherlands hit by a third night of rioting on Monday, with clashes in Rotterdam, Amsterdam, and The Hague.

00:28:32.000 Police said 184 people have been arrested by Tuesday morning and promised more arrests would be made.

00:28:40.000 Hundreds of rioters had looted shops, set fires and clashed with police who responded with water cannons.

00:28:46.000 It comes after the Netherlands introduced a coronavirus curfew from 9pm until 4.30am to bring cases down.

00:28:53.000 Now, I believe it was the mayor of Eindhoven who said that we are on the verge of civil war.

00:28:59.000 And I think it's actually... Is it up here?

00:29:00.000 I don't know.

00:29:01.000 They change their articles so much.

00:29:03.000 Here we go.

00:29:04.000 Rioters first struck on Sunday night in Amsterdam.

00:29:06.000 Eindhoven... What did I call it?

00:29:07.000 Eindhoven?

00:29:08.000 Eindhoven and multiple other towns seeming to catch authorities off guard and prompting warnings from some politicians of civil war.

00:29:16.000 John Joritsma, mayor of Eindhoven, warned bluntly that we are on our way to civil war.

00:29:22.000 Yeah.

00:29:22.000 They say, despite the unrest, many countries in Europe are considering tightening their lockdowns.

00:29:27.000 This is an impossible conversation, an impossible discussion, to be completely honest.

00:29:34.000 People often ask, like, where's the line in government intrusion until you say enough and then demand a regis of grievances to the point where there's clashes, right? 0.95

00:29:43.000 Because I tell you, in China, they're shoving swabs up people's butts. 1.00

00:29:47.000 At a certain point, the line has been breached, right? 0.94

00:29:50.000 But for now, it is a fact that in this country, the line can never be crossed.

00:29:54.000 There's no line.

00:29:55.000 There's no point.

00:29:56.000 There's like, you can have a bunch of people who have no plan thinking they're gonna occupy a building, and that's the revolution?

00:30:01.000 It's not.

00:30:03.000 But there's, I think we're at a point where there's a global security infrastructure that's not going to allow for that to happen.

00:30:10.000 So it could all break down at some point when people just lose it, I guess.

00:30:13.000 Yeah.

00:30:13.000 Well, in the Netherlands, this is the third night of widespread rioting and violence that even some local politicians are saying will continue for days or weeks.

00:30:25.000 They burned down many testing facilities.

00:30:29.000 They're fighting police officers in the street and this is predominantly over the lockdown restrictions and specifically this curfew because a lot of people are saying, what, does the coronavirus not infect you under a certain time?

00:30:42.000 Does the coronavirus have a bedtime?

00:30:44.000 And there have even been studies showing that curfews are absolutely pointless and they do nothing except hinder Daily life and allow the police to have an excuse to take away your liberties or your money away from you Alex you had something to say?

00:30:59.000 No?

00:31:00.000 It's complicated, because we can go deep in the philosophical discussion on when you lose your national sovereignty, and you start having the civil war sort of clashes and armed resistance, and what happens when one side of that, when the side of that argument, where the people who don't think that their government has the authority to rule over them anymore, You know, what happens when that group doesn't have any quality of arms with their, for lack of a better term, their masters?

00:31:38.000 So, I mean, there's a real philosophical argument to get into, and you see a lot of it through Portland, through the Antifa riots, a little bit of it popped up in D.C.

00:31:54.000 I don't know, it's... You know what I think?

00:31:58.000 The armament of the people changes the threshold for when those people will react violently.

00:32:04.000 And so, you look at somewhere like China, and the state is a massive security state with censorship, control of all weapons, the likelihood of an uprising is slim to none.

00:32:14.000 Because the odds are so much against the people.

00:32:18.000 There's concentration camps in China right now.

00:32:20.000 In the US, it's a bit more precarious because you have to think about the amount of pressure on an individual to make them act and the capability they have to actually accomplish something.

00:32:31.000 In a place like China or in Europe, the ability to accomplish something when you have an armed state versus an unarmed populace is slim unless you have critical mass.

00:32:41.000 So the line at which it becomes a civil war, like this Dutch mayor is saying, is further away than it is in the United States.

00:32:48.000 In the United States, you can get one crazy guy with powerful weapons who feels he can actually do something.

00:32:54.000 That's scary to me, it is.

00:32:56.000 Because we want stability, we don't want instability.

00:32:58.000 We're not currently dealing with people getting anally swabbed, but we do have the curtailing of our freedoms. 1.00

00:33:05.000 I think the question is for the U.S.

00:33:06.000 Even with the curtailing of our freedoms, we're still pretty much living in luxury relative to other places.

00:33:13.000 But also, against that kind of sentiment that you said, In Europe, all you need is a truck.

00:33:19.000 And there have been incidences where there have been deadly events that have been far more impactful than shootings in the United States because of some crazy person saying, I'm just going to run a whole bunch of people over with a truck.

00:33:31.000 So, you know, that's another sentiment here that we need to understand.

00:33:34.000 But what I mean is, if you, like if in the U.S. 0.64

00:33:37.000 they started doing mandatory anal swabbing, I imagine things would break down really fast. 0.79

00:33:42.000 A lot of social justice warriors would probably like that. 1.00

00:33:45.000 Yeah, so maybe, sure, if you want to make the argument that maybe in cities things would just go along, like we've seen what's going on with New York.

00:33:51.000 They just go for it.

00:33:52.000 But think about that.

00:33:52.000 The cities are unarmed.

00:33:54.000 For the most part, people in the cities are completely unarmed and would just go with whatever they're told.

00:34:00.000 I mean, just look at the militias in this country and the groups that are armed.

00:34:04.000 They tend not to be living in cities.

00:34:06.000 So either they're moving out for more freedom or they're more self-reliant and more, you know, don't tread on me

00:34:12.000 You look at places like the Netherlands. The point I'm trying to make is

00:34:15.000 You require very few people and much less rage and oppression among for an armed population to rise up and say

00:34:22.000 enough Whereas in the Netherlands, you're gonna have people who

00:34:25.000 are like, what am I gonna do about it?

00:34:27.000 I can't do anything.

00:34:28.000 I'm on my own.

00:34:29.000 But eventually when you get thousands of people in the street, that's when things, when that line is crossed.

00:34:33.000 So you need more people and more oppression for an unarmed population to finally snap and revolt.

00:34:39.000 Which I think is a very simple equation.

00:34:41.000 It explains why governments don't want people to have guns, especially Democrats don't want people to have guns.

00:34:47.000 Which is why I think, you know, what you're, you know, doing, uh, uh, Alex's, It's going to be interesting.

00:34:53.000 I guess the way people say it is the cat's out of the bag.

00:34:55.000 Gun control is over.

00:34:56.000 Yeah.

00:34:56.000 Can't, can't do much.

00:34:58.000 Sorry, I hit the table.

00:35:00.000 Can't do much about it.

00:35:01.000 It's, it's, you know, people and the, the, the kicker is people have been making guns in their homes for the last hundred years before the advent of 3d printing.

00:35:11.000 Now what's the laws with that?

00:35:12.000 Because I know some people don't really know how clear it is, what they can do, what can't they do illegally.

00:35:18.000 Right, so on the federal level, it is entirely legal if you are federally able to possess a gun.

00:35:26.000 So you're not a felon, you're not a domestic abuser.

00:35:30.000 There are a couple other criteria in there that I'm not on the top of the mind.

00:35:34.000 I think you can't be a drunkard.

00:35:36.000 Uh, no, you can't be.

00:35:37.000 I don't know.

00:35:38.000 When you buy a gun, it asks you, are you a drunkard?

00:35:40.000 And if you put yes, they say, got it, you can have a gun.

00:35:43.000 No, for real.

00:35:43.000 Yeah.

00:35:44.000 Yeah.

00:35:44.000 I'm going to inform that you have to arrest him for public intoxication.

00:35:48.000 No, it just says, are you a drunkard or habitual drinker?

00:35:51.000 That must be an old law.

00:35:52.000 Yeah.

00:35:52.000 And I think there's also something.

00:35:54.000 Oh, are you addicted to alcohol or any other substances?

00:35:56.000 Right.

00:35:56.000 Yeah.

00:35:57.000 And I think there's also another section about psychological issues.

00:35:59.000 Right.

00:36:00.000 Or you can't beat your wife or your husband.

00:36:03.000 Right, so there are a couple of criteria that will disbar you from owning a firearm.

00:36:10.000 But if you're able to own it, then you should be able to make it without any real Hangups.

00:36:20.000 Mail order parts and straight to your door.

00:36:22.000 What can't you manufacture locally?

00:36:25.000 What parts?

00:36:27.000 There aren't any at the moment.

00:36:29.000 You can make a full auto?

00:36:31.000 You can.

00:36:31.000 You can legally make your own.

00:36:33.000 Oh, okay.

00:36:33.000 No, I see.

00:36:34.000 Sorry.

00:36:34.000 I understand what you're saying.

00:36:36.000 You cannot legally make a machine gun because you cannot legally possess a machine gun.

00:36:41.000 Oh, right.

00:36:42.000 The law actually stops the manufacturing of machine guns.

00:36:44.000 That's it, right?

00:36:44.000 You can old grandfathered machine guns, right?

00:36:47.000 Right.

00:36:47.000 So there was a machine gun registry before they were forbidden.

00:36:52.000 And you can own those.

00:36:53.000 They're very expensive.

00:36:55.000 Somewhere in the realm of like $20,000 for one.

00:36:58.000 What if you had like a gun with 30 barrels that fired 30 rounds the exact same time?

00:37:03.000 That's volley fire, which is legal under the law.

00:37:06.000 Really?

00:37:06.000 Yeah.

00:37:07.000 Oh, I didn't know that. 0.98

00:37:08.000 It's not such a thing as a dumb question. 0.88

00:37:09.000 Yeah, there was a revolver that came out recently that has two barrels. 0.69

00:37:12.000 You fire two, I think, 238 specials out of it.

00:37:15.000 I could be wrong, or 222s.

00:37:19.000 But with one pull of the trigger, you get two bullets out of two barrels.

00:37:22.000 So only if you want to transfer a firearm, do you have to contact the ATF and get a serial number for that firearm?

00:37:29.000 Is that correct?

00:37:31.000 The jury is out on that one.

00:37:32.000 Because the ATF usually changes its mind more than politicians flip-flop.

00:37:38.000 And they're all over the place with their definitions, which are very confusing.

00:37:43.000 Their kind of understandings and their legal arguments are kind of all over the place.

00:37:47.000 So to get into the nuts a little bit, Manufacturing exclusively for personal use, not for sale or distribution.

00:37:57.000 So if you make it with the intent to give it away, you've committed a felony.

00:38:00.000 If you make it with the intent to sell it, you've committed a felony.

00:38:03.000 If you make it with the intent to use it solely for yourself, for whatever you are using it for, then you're fine.

00:38:09.000 Wow.

00:38:10.000 So I pulled it up.

00:38:11.000 I just googled it and it's t-rexsmallarms.com.

00:38:15.000 Arsenal Firearms AF2011 double barrel pistol in .38 Super.

00:38:20.000 So it is a handgun with two barrels.

00:38:23.000 It's $4,000.

00:38:26.000 5-inch slide, double barrel, semi-automatic, .38 Super caliber.

00:38:30.000 Fires both barrels with one pull of the trigger.

00:38:33.000 Now why would you want that?

00:38:34.000 Because it looks cool?

00:38:37.000 I mean, I'm not saying you shouldn't have it.

00:38:38.000 You can flex on your friends with the same gun, but only one barrel.

00:38:42.000 Look, I'm cooler than you.

00:38:45.000 But I think about the question the left often asks is like, why would anyone need this?

00:38:50.000 First, I understand the immediate response is, it doesn't matter.

00:38:53.000 I don't need a reason.

00:38:54.000 I have a Second Amendment right to own arms.

00:38:55.000 That I get.

00:38:56.000 But is there like a real functional or tactical reason to having volley fire or double barrel, you know, one trigger pull, two bullets?

00:39:02.000 Well, I mean, you're putting twice the amount of projectile into whatever you're shooting at.

00:39:09.000 So if you're hunting bear with an AR-15, you're going to want more than one round.

00:39:14.000 But you really shouldn't be hunting bear with an AR-15.

00:39:16.000 So we talked about this, though.

00:39:18.000 We talked about full auto is actually bad tactically.

00:39:22.000 Yeah.

00:39:23.000 Tactically?

00:39:24.000 Generally speaking, it just wastes a lot of ammo.

00:39:28.000 In most military-type engagement, you're going to be shooting at an individual target.

00:39:34.000 There is an argument for it where you're talking about suppressing fire coming from machine guns, but when you start getting into fully-auto out of a 30-round magazine, it's kind of...

00:39:44.000 Not great?

00:39:45.000 Like, it's useful for the military.

00:39:48.000 There's a reason that they have it.

00:39:49.000 If, you know, you're in a pinch and you just click the button over, you know, fine.

00:39:53.000 Don't they call it spray-and-pray?

00:39:55.000 Yeah.

00:39:56.000 Spray-and-pray.

00:39:56.000 I just wanted to do a clarification also.

00:39:58.000 Nancy Pelosi lately had said that she wanted crewman machine guns on these things.

00:40:02.000 They're actually called crew-served weapons.

00:40:05.000 My friend that was in the Army was like, please tell everyone.

00:40:08.000 Well, we just, we just read what Ken Cuccinelli said, you know, and he said crew manned machine guns.

00:40:13.000 Yeah, he's part of the patriarchy.

00:40:17.000 So, uh, you can't make full auto.

00:40:20.000 Right.

00:40:21.000 But that's not, that's full auto.

00:40:23.000 It's not even a good thing anyway.

00:40:25.000 So it seems kind of redundant.

00:40:26.000 Yeah, I mean, again, there's an argument for it.

00:40:29.000 You know, if you can control it, then you can be accurate with it.

00:40:32.000 And that's the training thing, which you need exposure to train with it.

00:40:37.000 So there are arguments for and against.

00:40:41.000 Are there guns that will automatically fire when they target the person?

00:40:45.000 Uh, you're talking like an automated turret system?

00:40:48.000 Yeah, like if you turn it and it sees the person or the target or the deer or whatever, then it will fire when it sees it?

00:40:56.000 Uh, kind of.

00:40:58.000 There was a company called Tracking Point.

00:40:59.000 They made a really fun optic, um...

00:41:03.000 And I think a later iteration they built it into a full rifle platform where you're hunting and you see the deer and you want to hit it at a specific point to get a good clean kill on it.

00:41:16.000 And so it would wait until you would pull the trigger and then you would adjust your position so you would line up properly and once it lined up properly it would fire.

00:41:28.000 It's been years since I've seen this, and I don't know if I'm remembering it exactly, so don't quote me on this.

00:41:34.000 Well, you want to make sure you don't wound a deer because they're going to run away, and they're going to be injured, and they're going to be suffering.

00:41:39.000 There's a specific place on the deer, I think in the lung-heart area, correct me if I'm wrong, that you have to, if you shoot once, it's It's a pretty good sign that it's going to be a clean kill and the animal's not going to suffer.

00:41:56.000 I read a lot about how certain places have really high crime.

00:41:59.000 I hear West Virginia has a lot of high crime and a lot of these places outside of cities have high crime.

00:42:04.000 They say New York has low crime.

00:42:05.000 And I'm like, why is it then that people in West Virginia, there's like not many police around and then why, like, you know, and people just get along just fine or get by just fine.

00:42:14.000 And then why is it in New York?

00:42:15.000 There's like, we're hearing these massive spike in murders and things like this.

00:42:19.000 Wasn't some guy just beaten and stripped naked in the street in New York?

00:42:22.000 Yeah, I remember.

00:42:23.000 Probably.

00:42:25.000 There's a video of it?

00:42:25.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:42:26.000 I mean, I've seen stuff like that in real life in New York City growing up.

00:42:30.000 I've seen crazy things that would spark people's PTSD if I described what I saw growing up.

00:42:37.000 This is from 6 hours ago.

00:42:41.000 Man seen stripped and beaten in New York City.

00:42:44.000 Attack was known gang member with lengthy criminal history.

00:42:47.000 Victim is expected to survive.

00:42:50.000 The 26-year-old victim was in the area of Canal and Allen around 11.30 a.m.

00:42:53.000 on Friday when the group of about a dozen men and women jumped him and took his cell phone, pants, undergarments, and shoes.

00:43:00.000 They then used a sharp object to slice him in the head, hands, and torso.

00:43:04.000 The victim was taken to a local hospital where he's expected to survive.

00:43:07.000 On Monday, the police commissioner, Dermot Shea, released a 50-second video of what he called a brazen, broad daylight attack.

00:43:13.000 The footage shows the man running away from the group as they catch up and begin beating him.

00:43:19.000 Police sources told the New York Post the victim lives in Brooklyn, and had just returned from Atlanta.

00:43:23.000 The violent crew had reportedly been staking out the nearby bus stop for the man's arrival.

00:43:28.000 Police said they fled in several vehicles after the attack.

00:43:30.000 A law enforcement source confirmed to Fox News that the victim had been linked to the violent Mack Baller-Brims gang.

00:43:37.000 If the shoe was on the other foot, he'd be part of that gang, the source said.

00:43:41.000 So it's just gang violence, I guess?

00:43:43.000 Yeah.

00:43:44.000 This is an interesting thing.

00:43:45.000 Like, Chicago is an interesting gun conversation.

00:43:48.000 Chicago's got a bunch of people with illegal guns and they go around shooting each other all the time.

00:43:53.000 And I think that's what the left uses as an argument for gun control.

00:43:57.000 Criminals who take the guns and then are causing problems and murdering people all over the place. 0.68

00:44:02.000 I guess for me, I've always kind of wondered...

00:44:05.000 If the guns are already illegal and they're committing murders with them, why would passing a law stop them from committing a murder which is already illegal?

00:44:10.000 I mean, like, that's the worst crime!

00:44:12.000 Well, we see a lot of liberals talk about gun homicides, and they keep forgetting that most of them are from illegal guns in jurisdictions that already banned them.

00:44:23.000 Other gun deaths are because of suicide, and then I think the third highest level of gun death rates are from police officers shooting people.

00:44:33.000 So, if you're for gun control, you're not really for gun control.

00:44:37.000 You're for having individuals with guns take away other people's guns at the threat of using guns.

00:44:43.000 That's essentially what you're for, and you should just be honest about it, that you want people robbed of their ability to defend themselves, while, of course, the politicians want literal machine guns protecting them all the time.

00:44:55.000 I like the idea of having an armed society.

00:44:57.000 It's kind of cool because if a group does rise up to overthrow the government with guns, which in Holland they're probably afraid of, you have the rest of the population also armed to protect the country from the overthrow.

00:45:10.000 Civil war?

00:45:11.000 Well, ideally, I mean, that's possible.

00:45:14.000 That did happen in the 1800s.

00:45:15.000 But ideally, it would be a swift justice.

00:45:19.000 They always say that with war.

00:45:20.000 It wouldn't, man.

00:45:20.000 I mean, we've got 75 million Trump voters, 80 million Biden voters.

00:45:24.000 But it's better than, I think, a totalitarian dictatorship.

00:45:27.000 The threat of civil war is better than a totalitarian dictatorship.

00:45:30.000 The threat of civil war.

00:45:31.000 It's better to know that there's a possible- like, the idea that a civil war could happen means that the dictatorship is less likely to happen.

00:45:38.000 You always want to reduce harm.

00:45:40.000 And what usually reduces harm is individuals being able to defend themselves.

00:45:45.000 Because people then don't take offensive, aggressive actions against them.

00:45:50.000 They say an armed society is a polite society and I think we're seeing that in places like Florida and places like Texas where people have the ability to protect themselves unlike other jurisdictions like Chicago, New York City, and a lot of the other big cities where you can't and gang violence and Uh, has been skyrocketing because all the gang members know people are defenseless.

00:46:12.000 People can't defend themselves if they do have a firearm.

00:46:15.000 But now in many places, I think in Chicago, you can have a gun.

00:46:19.000 But I think it's really difficult.

00:46:21.000 I grew up there and for the longest time, like, all weapons were just outright banned.

00:46:24.000 I think the only legal weapon you're allowed to have is a rubber switch.

00:46:28.000 You know what that is?

00:46:29.000 It's like a long piece of rubber with a little ball at the end and you whack people with it.

00:46:33.000 What about a knife?

00:46:33.000 No, knives, that's illegal.

00:46:34.000 Really?

00:46:35.000 Yeah.

00:46:36.000 In Times Square, the biggest arrests that were made were individuals that came in from out of New York who had pocket knives.

00:46:42.000 The biggest arrests that happened... I forgot the exact statistic here, but I heard a very wild one that the majority of arrests in New York happened because of tourists having guns on their... Oh, right.

00:46:55.000 I imagine it's like a knife of a certain length.

00:46:57.000 Yeah, it's like longer than three and a half inches or something.

00:46:58.000 Okay.

00:46:59.000 So that's like a pocket knife.

00:47:00.000 You get a certain pocket knife.

00:47:02.000 Or maybe you've got like a utility knife or something you carry around for... Yeah, or nail clippers.

00:47:06.000 Yeah, yeah, and then they're like, well, that's a crime.

00:47:08.000 Can't have that.

00:47:10.000 Um, Alex, do you know how many 3D printed guns are in existence?

00:47:13.000 Is that even measurable?

00:47:15.000 Um, not really.

00:47:16.000 I mean, I broke 25,000 across socials, so I imagine there's at least 25,000.

00:47:20.000 Um...

00:47:24.000 I would surely hope that there are many, many, many times that number, and I believe that there are, but there's no way to count.

00:47:34.000 Most people are making them in the privacy of their own home, and if they're doing it right, they're not telling anybody.

00:47:39.000 So, we were talking about this last week, I think, about ghost guns, and some people were saying they were illegal, and then a bunch of people were like, no, no, no, they're totally legal.

00:47:46.000 So, ghost guns are legal, is that correct?

00:47:48.000 Yeah, so, a minute ago we were talking about how you can manufacture... Any gun you manufacture at home, for your own personal use, is what politicians are calling a ghost gun.

00:47:58.000 Like, they're one and the same.

00:48:00.000 So it's not just 3D printed stuff.

00:48:01.000 It's not just like the 80% kits that you buy.

00:48:05.000 It's anything that you're making at home.

00:48:07.000 So how does the 80% kit work?

00:48:10.000 So basically, a company went to the ATF and said, hey, is this... Okay, I need a backup.

00:48:20.000 The ATF regulates one specific part of a firearm, that is, as a firearm.

00:48:26.000 It's the serialized part.

00:48:28.000 It's the one part that you actually have to go to an FFL, a gun store, to buy.

00:48:32.000 And what part is that?

00:48:34.000 It varies based on the firearm.

00:48:36.000 On a Glock, it's the polymer frame.

00:48:39.000 On an AR-15, it's the lower receiver where the trigger and the magazine go into.

00:48:44.000 Um, so that's the serialized part.

00:48:47.000 Now, what these 80% companies did is they went to the ATF and they had a partially finished one.

00:48:52.000 They sent them the lure and said, hey, is this a firearm yet?

00:48:55.000 And the ATF said no.

00:48:57.000 So the industry called it an 80% complete firearm.

00:49:01.000 So it's not quite a firearm.

00:49:03.000 And you can buy it, it ships straight to your door, and you finish it on basic tools.

00:49:08.000 There's a couple kits out there, one you do with like a DeWalt router or something, some kind of just common hardware tool, or you can do it with a drill press.

00:49:17.000 But then you still need to buy that last piece.

00:49:19.000 Right.

00:49:20.000 Wasn't there something going on where people were saying the ATF was raiding people for having these kits?

00:49:23.000 Yeah, so there was one specific kit done by Polymer80 called the Bi-Build Shoot Kit, and they marketed it as everything you need in a box to build a gun in a couple hours.

00:49:33.000 And you would click it once, and you add to the cart, and they would ship it to your door, and then you'd spend an hour putting it together.

00:49:38.000 And the ATF said that this box of parts that wasn't a firearm was close enough to the definition of a firearm, and marketed it in such a way that it could be construed as a firearm, that it was actually a firearm.

00:49:52.000 Which doesn't make any sense from a legal perspective.

00:49:55.000 But this is the ETF we're talking about.

00:49:56.000 They, you know, fairy dust and magic.

00:49:59.000 So in terms of 3D printed guns, you're printing what like the frame, the grip, the stock or what?

00:50:03.000 Yeah, basically any external part that has complex geometry, so things that are going to be difficult to make by hand.

00:50:12.000 And then, looking specifically at the FGC-9, the barrel and the bolt are made at home, out of common material.

00:50:22.000 And again, the barrel, we're finishing it with basically 3D printable inserts, and we're using electrochemical machining to get the internal dimensions of the barrel to the right size

00:50:35.000 and rifle it and cut the chamber.

00:50:37.000 And it sounds really complicated. It does. I was like, what?

00:50:40.000 Yeah, I know that shot really high for a lot of people, but there's a good write up on... Whoa.

00:50:47.000 It was autoplaying a video about the FTC9.

00:50:52.000 Continue, continue.

00:50:53.000 Anyway, a lot of that went over a lot of people's heads.

00:50:55.000 There's a really good write-up.

00:50:56.000 It sounds really complicated.

00:50:59.000 It's not.

00:51:00.000 It's saltwater in an aquarium pump in a five-gallon bucket in your garage.

00:51:04.000 So, in total, how much do you have to spend on supplies, materials, and everything you need to make a FGC-9?

00:51:14.000 The hardware to get started, the printer itself, $200.

00:51:18.000 Filament, $40.

00:51:20.000 The parts to build the actual gun, your internals, about another $200.

00:51:25.000 And then your benchtop power supply and your aquarium pump to do the electrochemical machining is like another $100 on top of that.

00:51:34.000 So when you say electrochemical machining, you have salt water in a tank.

00:51:39.000 How does that work exactly?

00:51:40.000 So you're pumping water out of a bucket, salt water out of a bucket, through the inside of the barrel.

00:51:46.000 And you've got an electrode in the barrel that's stripping material at the atomic level off of the inside of the barrel to bore it to the right size for your bullet and then cut rifling and then cut in your chamber.

00:52:00.000 Wow.

00:52:01.000 That sounds really hard to do.

00:52:03.000 It's not awesome.

00:52:04.000 Someone gave us a super chat a couple days ago.

00:52:07.000 They're like, no, it's so easy.

00:52:08.000 You could just print out an FGC9.

00:52:10.000 And I looked at it.

00:52:10.000 I was like, this looks hard.

00:52:12.000 Yeah.

00:52:13.000 It looks hard.

00:52:15.000 It's super easy.

00:52:17.000 What caliber is the FGC-9?

00:52:18.000 It's a 9mm.

00:52:19.000 Is that where the 9 comes from?

00:52:21.000 Yeah.

00:52:22.000 And then the FGC means something else.

00:52:26.000 Yeah, F Gun Control. 0.76

00:52:29.000 Are there other printers than the Ender, like next level, above the Ender-5?

00:52:34.000 There are.

00:52:35.000 You start to lose the value per dollar that you're spending.

00:52:39.000 So you can get into like a $3,000 or $4,000 printer pretty quickly.

00:52:42.000 What would be the value of that?

00:52:44.000 I mean, you're doing the same thing you're doing on the Ender 5.

00:52:46.000 Does it print?

00:52:48.000 About the same quality.

00:52:49.000 You might get an upgrade in materials.

00:52:51.000 You might be able to print with some fancy nylons and stuff like that.

00:52:54.000 Some higher temperature stuff.

00:52:56.000 But, I mean, for the price difference.

00:52:58.000 What about metal?

00:52:59.000 Do you print metal?

00:53:00.000 No, so metal is a whole nother, uh, um, uh, manufacturing process and it's a lot more to get into.

00:53:08.000 So, um, there, there's a couple of different methods of doing the most popular, the cheapest one.

00:53:14.000 And I'll start at, this is $50,000 that you're spending to get in here.

00:53:17.000 Wow.

00:53:18.000 It's a laser that melts a layer of powder and then, uh, the printer scoops another layer on top of it.

00:53:24.000 It does another layer of melting.

00:53:25.000 It's really fast though, right?

00:53:27.000 No, it goes really slow.

00:53:28.000 Yeah, it's pretty slow.

00:53:30.000 Um, and then once all that's done, you have to take that part, you have to send it to another company to do the final, like, actually make it a solid part, because it's a bunch of particles that are stuck together.

00:53:40.000 Right.

00:53:40.000 It's got to go in like a kiln or something.

00:53:41.000 Right.

00:53:42.000 Like where it heats and solidifies or something like that.

00:53:43.000 Yeah.

00:53:44.000 And then you have to add material, physically add additional material to it.

00:53:48.000 So it becomes a lot more expensive, a lot more costly.

00:53:50.000 There's applications for it, but not for like the home gunsmith.

00:53:54.000 I'm going to do this in my garage for the cheap.

00:53:56.000 Yeah.

00:53:56.000 Um, like there are, there are filaments that have metal embedded in them, but they have the same problem where it's just a bunch of medical metal particles that are just stuck together.

00:54:07.000 And then you have to send it to another company to finish it.

00:54:09.000 I got, I gotta be honest, man.

00:54:11.000 You say it sounds easy, but I'm like looking at these websites and it's just, there's hurdles to, you know, the average person can't just do this.

00:54:17.000 Yeah, everything is a learning curve, but we've tried to make it really, really simple.

00:54:23.000 So in order to get started, I'm going to plug my site, go to theguide.controlpew.com.

00:54:29.000 That'll get you your first 10 steps into 3D printing.

00:54:32.000 You're not 3D printing guns yet.

00:54:33.000 You're just 3D printing.

00:54:34.000 You're just learning how to use the printer, how to use the software, how to get it dialed in so it actually functions and things fit together properly.

00:54:42.000 And then the next step, Right?

00:54:45.000 Find a gun you want to print.

00:54:46.000 Print it.

00:54:47.000 And Ctrl-Pew is C-T-R-L-P-E-W.

00:54:50.000 C-T-R-L-P-E-W. 1.00

00:54:51.000 That's theguy.ctrlpew.com.

00:54:53.000 And just to clarify, having and making your own FGC9 is legal federally?

00:54:58.000 Is that correct?

00:54:59.000 Yeah, federally it's legal.

00:55:01.000 State laws may vary.

00:55:02.000 I know Maryland has some funny business going on.

00:55:05.000 I know California has funny business going on.

00:55:08.000 I know New York has funny business going on.

00:55:10.000 Well, California and Maryland banned flamethrowers. 0.91

00:55:13.000 They're the two states, and I know this because I own a flamethrower, they banned flamethrowers, which is just utterly ridiculous and so un-American.

00:55:21.000 I'm sorry, I thought this was America.

00:55:24.000 People are getting in trouble with the Elon Musk flamethrowers.

00:55:26.000 Yeah.

00:55:27.000 Because people are buying them and it's called not a flamethrower by the boring company and then people are getting the feds turn up their door being like that's a flamethrower!

00:55:34.000 The funny business is that's actually a weed burner.

00:55:36.000 It's not a flamethrower.

00:55:37.000 It just has a little bit of flame that sits in the end.

00:55:39.000 It doesn't throw the flame anywhere and it's really depressing and I'm really sad about it.

00:55:44.000 Now importantly, making your own 3D printed firearm like the FGC9, is there any legislation against doing this locally, statewide?

00:55:54.000 Is there anything against 3D printing on the books now?

00:55:57.000 Because I've seen individuals like Chuck Schumer who literally Explain the black, what was it, the Silk Road in such a way

00:56:07.000 where it promoted it on national television a few years ago, now talking about the ease of 3D

00:56:12.000 printing firearms. There's a lot of misunderstanding, but is there any legislation proposed or

00:56:17.000 on the books now against 3D printing, federally, state or local? Not at the federal level. At the

00:56:23.000 state level, like I said, California, Maryland, New York, I think there is some legislation that

00:56:30.000 exists.

00:56:31.000 Although, how far you get with that, I don't know.

00:56:33.000 There's a couple people.

00:56:35.000 Reno is a YouTuber from California.

00:56:38.000 He's working on a 3D printed California compliant Glock and AR-15.

00:56:44.000 So, there are some specifics to work within those sets of laws, but...

00:56:51.000 I'm not as well-read on the individual states to be able to answer that with any level of competence.

00:56:56.000 Well, you know, even traveling with firearms, you learn about so many of the jurisdictions, reciprocities, and you literally need to hire a lawyer to explain it to you because of the different made-up laws that each politician interprets in their own unique ways, which is, again, not universal and very confusing and leads a lot of people in trouble.

00:57:19.000 I'm so, I'm so disappointed because I tried for like, I sat for like three, four hours.

00:57:24.000 I dug through the law to come out here with my trunk of fun.

00:57:28.000 Yeah.

00:57:28.000 And just show you guys what we're working with.

00:57:30.000 And I couldn't do it because I just couldn't figure out how to navigate the whole thing properly.

00:57:34.000 And I was like, okay, I can't, I can't even begin.

00:57:37.000 Have you, in your time, 3d printing and experimenting, have you ever figured out new shapes to build weapons or guns with that make them more effective?

00:57:48.000 I mean, a little bit.

00:57:49.000 So we've done a lot of modifications on the AR-15 to make it a lot more robust.

00:57:55.000 There's a version now that has an additional bracket on the side of it to hold the buffer tower, to add some extra support to the buffer tower, so that it doesn't break off when you're shooting.

00:58:07.000 Which was a problem that we had with the early 2015-2016 versions of the AR-15 lore.

00:58:13.000 So, I mean, we've come along, we've evolved in a lot of different firearms.

00:58:18.000 So, like, when you're talking about specific shapes, not really, but it all varies based on the forces applied to each firearm, because they all act a little bit differently.

00:58:28.000 Yeah, I'm thinking, like, to print, like, little hooks on the side where you could stick extra cartridges and then to hold... Oh, okay.

00:58:35.000 Yeah, no, that stuff, there's a lot of that, actually.

00:58:38.000 Thingiverse doesn't allow you to do gun stuff, but there's a lot of gun stuff on Thingiverse.

00:58:42.000 It's fantastic.

00:58:44.000 So, yeah.

00:58:45.000 Weird stuff on Thingiverse, too.

00:58:46.000 Well, there is that.

00:58:47.000 A lot of weird stuff, is that what you're saying?

00:58:48.000 Yeah.

00:58:52.000 They got weird stuff on Thingiverse.

00:58:57.000 Oh, that's awesome.

00:58:58.000 The future is now.

00:58:59.000 It's unstoppable.

00:59:00.000 They're gonna make 3D printers that can print 3D printers.

00:59:03.000 It's just around the corner.

00:59:05.000 So, funny story, 2012, the RepRap project, which started the whole 3D printer business and the commercial home use, They were designed to have a bunch of 3D printed parts, and then have a bunch of common off-the-shelf parts, where you just printed the stuff you need, or you had someone else print it for you, and then you assembled your printer, and you could print another set and give them to someone else, and they could build their printer.

00:59:29.000 So cool.

00:59:29.000 So that was the origin of this whole thing, which is another reason why the whole 3D printing thing itself can never really be stopped, because the origin of everything is open source.

00:59:39.000 It's all out there, it's all public domain.

00:59:40.000 They could put some kind of tax on 3D printers, where you have to get a stamp, and then only one office in the country issues the stamps, and they're swamped, and people can only get one, like, every six months, like they do with many things to get around the law, you know what I mean?

00:59:55.000 Right, but prove that I bought the printer to, you know, you know what I mean?

00:59:59.000 Well, I mean, like, you know what we've seen- You gotta catch him first.

01:00:02.000 What we've seen with a lot of regulations the government does when they can't ban something is they put regulatory hurdles in front of it that are so severe, people eventually just stop doing it.

01:00:10.000 I have a feeling that in the future they'll be trying to ban the information, like the actual CAD files of the data.

01:00:18.000 So when electricity becomes free, like once we tap fusion and we're in ignition, it's gonna be the information that's the currency of the world.

01:00:25.000 It was funny.

01:00:26.000 I was watching Star Trek earlier, and I'm just thinking about this now, like, what if, like, could you imagine someone walking up to a replicator and being like, computer!

01:00:33.000 Glock 9mm, you know, Glock 17.

01:00:35.000 It's not loaded.

01:00:36.000 Give me 50 rounds.

01:00:37.000 It just appears, and then people have guns.

01:00:39.000 Right?

01:00:39.000 Wouldn't that be great?

01:00:42.000 Well, isn't the data market more valuable than the oil market in the world already?

01:00:46.000 That wouldn't surprise me.

01:00:47.000 So, I mean, when we're looking at the advancements of technology, it goes both ways.

01:00:51.000 It provides people a lot of opportunity, but it also has an opportunity to take away a lot of the freedoms and liberties that we take advantage of.

01:00:59.000 So it's going to be interesting because when you look at 3D printers and trying to band them, I mean, essentially, when you boil it down, it's somewhat of a simple technology of just making plastic hot and then moving around a machine.

01:01:11.000 So it uses that heat and that, you know, melted plastic to shape something in a different form.

01:01:17.000 So, I mean, it's going to be very hard to ban 3D printers, but it's something that, as you said, could happen and could be regulated in a way where it's impossible to get.

01:01:26.000 For the FGC-9, could you just buy, like, standard parts for other guns?

01:01:32.000 Is that legal?

01:01:33.000 Like, if you bought a barrel or certain parts that you needed?

01:01:36.000 Yeah, so there are a couple mods that exist already.

01:01:38.000 One to make it take Glock barrels.

01:01:42.000 Another one to... By default it takes an AR-15 fire control group.

01:01:48.000 Funny story.

01:01:49.000 That AR-15 fire control group is also like a one-to-one copy of one that you can get out of an airsoft gun.

01:01:55.000 Really?

01:01:56.000 On AliExpress, yeah.

01:01:58.000 Oh, wow.

01:01:58.000 Yeah.

01:01:59.000 But so that becomes extremely easy then.

01:02:02.000 Like, what's the regulatory issue then?

01:02:04.000 Do you still have to get serialized?

01:02:05.000 Do you have to get it registered or anything like that?

01:02:06.000 No, so if you're building it for personal use, there is no serial number, no registration, nothing.

01:02:11.000 It just exists and it's yours, and now you have a gun.

01:02:14.000 So you can buy the metal parts you need.

01:02:17.000 Yep.

01:02:18.000 And then 3D print the rest, put it together, and you're good to go.

01:02:20.000 Yep.

01:02:20.000 That's crazy.

01:02:21.000 Do you ever use resin printing?

01:02:23.000 I've started messing with some of it.

01:02:25.000 The biggest problem with resin printing is it's structurally weaker than FDM printing or the plastic printing.

01:02:31.000 So the part you get isn't as strong, so it breaks sooner.

01:02:36.000 So I've seen a couple people try and do Glock frames in their resin printers.

01:02:40.000 And they don't end well.

01:02:43.000 No injury to the user, but they just break.

01:02:47.000 So we were talking about how the Liberator, I remember when it was first being developed, it would get off like one or a few rounds and then just break itself.

01:02:56.000 But that was no metal parts, right?

01:02:57.000 Right.

01:02:57.000 Well, it took a common nail, yeah.

01:03:00.000 A common nail.

01:03:01.000 Yeah.

01:03:01.000 And would that would just be a one-off or what?

01:03:04.000 Well, okay, so you can get more than one round out of the Liberator.

01:03:08.000 The video that's been that's commonly cited is one from like the Queensland police who printed a really crappy version of it.

01:03:16.000 They didn't follow the instructions.

01:03:17.000 And this is critical.

01:03:19.000 Follow the readme.

01:03:20.000 There's a readme in every package.

01:03:21.000 Everything comes out.

01:03:22.000 It's got the instructions.

01:03:24.000 Follow them.

01:03:26.000 But they didn't follow the readme, so their print was junk and it blew up.

01:03:33.000 But did it actually fire though?

01:03:34.000 Yeah, it did fire the one round.

01:03:36.000 It also blew up.

01:03:37.000 Did it get hurt?

01:03:38.000 No, they had it on a stand.

01:03:40.000 But I know Cody in his 2013 video fired three or four rounds through his on video, on camera, in succession.

01:03:48.000 So, I mean...

01:03:51.000 You just put a nail in it.

01:03:52.000 Yeah.

01:03:53.000 That's amazing.

01:03:54.000 What do you think about the new Biden kind of proposals for gun control?

01:03:58.000 Have you looked into them at all?

01:04:00.000 I mean, I've tried, but they are not very coherent and don't really apply to a lot.

01:04:06.000 It sounds like a universal ban on all things.

01:04:09.000 Pew pew.

01:04:10.000 Yeah.

01:04:11.000 And.

01:04:12.000 OK, enforce it.

01:04:15.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:04:15.000 I mean, I think they will.

01:04:16.000 Law-abiding citizens obey the law.

01:04:18.000 Can't enforce it, that's the problem.

01:04:20.000 With the amount of guns that are being printed, there's just not that big of an issue.

01:04:24.000 Looking at this last year alone, just with the reported background checks, there's something like three... Ten million new shooters?

01:04:33.000 I feel like we're butting up against four million background checks.

01:04:36.000 Now, a lot of those background checks have more than one gun, and not all of those background checks actually complete or end in a sale, but Four million is a lot.

01:04:46.000 I think it's way more than that, actually.

01:04:48.000 I feel like it would be, too, and I'm ballparking numbers, so... Well, so, I think the guy from Federal Ammo put out a video about the ammo shortage and said that we're looking at seven million new shooters.

01:04:58.000 Oh, geez.

01:04:59.000 So that means background checks has to be over seven million.

01:05:02.000 Yeah.

01:05:02.000 Because some people buy more than one gun.

01:05:04.000 Yeah.

01:05:04.000 So a lot of yeah well actually no it's not fair because some people are buying some people are already gun owners and are buying guns so maybe you're right maybe it is four million so the the data that comes up when i just oh no no wait i'm sorry it would have to be more than seven yeah regardless of your first time shooter or not yeah the data that comes up that when i just searched for this is that nearly five million new gun owners have joined the 100 million plus gun owners already in the united states in 2020 according to recent estimates for the from the national shooting sports foundation So, some of the data also shows that 40% of all firearm sales are going through first-time buyers.

01:05:39.000 So, of course, there's a lot of people.

01:05:41.000 I mean, I've saw this.

01:05:42.000 I started doing, you know, trainings with my Special Forces Green Beret friends in New Hampshire teaching people who are first-time gun owners how to properly use, how to properly clean, use their firearms this summer because there was a demand for it and there was a shortage of professionals willing to train people how to even safely use and operate a firearm.

01:06:00.000 Let's segue into this next story.

01:06:03.000 From Newsweek, fact check.

01:06:05.000 Did Missouri shop say no guns and ammo for Biden supporters?

01:06:09.000 Guess what?

01:06:10.000 Fact check true.

01:06:11.000 It actually happened.

01:06:12.000 They say, President Joe Biden preached that the country requires unity to overcome its challenges in his inaugural address last week, as it remains divided.

01:06:20.000 I love him.

01:06:20.000 Capitol riots earlier this month, blah, blah, blah.

01:06:22.000 In Missouri, depending on the presidential candidate you've won voted for, some local

01:06:25.000 residents might not be able to obtain guns or ammunition at one store.

01:06:29.000 Austin Peterson tweeted, my local gun shop announced last night, they do not have any

01:06:33.000 guns or ammunition available for Biden supporters.

01:06:36.000 The comment section of howling leftists is delicious like hot apple pie with ice cream.

01:06:41.000 Let's keep it going.

01:06:42.000 I love him.

01:06:43.000 Is it the claim?

01:06:45.000 A user from the social media forum Gab posted a screenshot of an article from the Gateway Pundit, an online political news blog that says, we report the truth and leave the Russia collusion fairytale to the conspiracy media.

01:06:56.000 With the headline, Missouri gun shop announces they don't have guns or ammos for Biden supporters.

01:07:00.000 They have the actual post from Facebook here.

01:07:03.000 It's true.

01:07:03.000 Trigger firearms and reloading LLC based in Jefferson City, Missouri.

01:07:07.000 Recently posted to its Facebook business page.

01:07:10.000 We don't have guns or ammo for Biden supporters.

01:07:12.000 Sorry for the inconvenience.

01:07:13.000 The company that lists itself as a gun store on the platform has received more than 3,000 interactions and more than 1,000 shares on the post with mixed reactions from users in the comment thread.

01:07:23.000 Reached by phone, Trigger Firearms and Reloading LLC hung up on Newsweek's request for comment about the Facebook post, declining to respond.

01:07:30.000 Gee, you think?

01:07:31.000 Facebook user Terry Plotner wrote, private company so they can do what they want.

01:07:37.000 In a comment responding to the gun shops post and apparent support.

01:07:40.000 The ruling true! 0.97

01:07:41.000 They did say this.

01:07:42.000 They will not sell guns or ammo.

01:07:44.000 So what does that mean?

01:07:45.000 Like you walk in and they're like, who'd you vote for?

01:07:47.000 And you're like, I voted for Joe Biden!

01:07:49.000 Get out.

01:07:50.000 Who's gonna admit that in a gun shop?

01:07:52.000 I don't think they're going to admit it.

01:07:53.000 I don't think they're going to be asking, but this is great PR to bring attention to their gun store.

01:07:58.000 I know a gun store in New Hampshire that literally had Joe Biden as the salesman of the month a few weeks ago.

01:08:03.000 And that brought in a whole bunch of attention and a lot of people angry and a lot of people pissed off.

01:08:08.000 And he's like, I love it.

01:08:09.000 Give me all the attention.

01:08:10.000 The guy was also a fan of We Are Changed, which is awkward walking in there.

01:08:14.000 And it's like, oh, of course.

01:08:16.000 Where are the people going to banks asking for multi-million dollar investment to start primer companies or powder companies because of the shortage of all this ammo?

01:08:25.000 Like, now's the opportunity to get on the ground floor.

01:08:27.000 In fact, can you 3D print ammo?

01:08:29.000 Oh, we're getting there.

01:08:30.000 So, we've got a couple of people working on it.

01:08:33.000 Developments are coming.

01:08:34.000 We've got projectiles, we've got casings.

01:08:37.000 We're working on... we've got half the chemistry.

01:08:39.000 We're working on more.

01:08:40.000 3D printed projectile.

01:08:43.000 So, we're 3D printing molds that will let you cast projectiles in any caliber and diameter you want.

01:08:49.000 Because in many places in the world, you can't buy the molds.

01:08:52.000 But it's incredible.

01:08:54.000 Let me ask you.

01:08:55.000 Would you provide all of your schematics to Biden's voters?

01:08:58.000 Sure.

01:08:59.000 Yeah.

01:08:59.000 I don't care.

01:09:00.000 Yeah.

01:09:02.000 They're going on the internet for free.

01:09:04.000 Yeah.

01:09:04.000 Anyone can download them.

01:09:06.000 Yep. 0.69

01:09:06.000 Go nuts. 0.69

01:09:07.000 Everyone will have them if they want them. 0.97

01:09:09.000 I guess that's the point, you know?

01:09:10.000 It's freedom.

01:09:12.000 You as an individual have the ability and the technology, you can do it.

01:09:15.000 You know, I was thinking about why these liberals, these Biden supporters, are so concerned.

01:09:22.000 Well, first of all, let me say, they're willing to support a man who says he's going to outright ban all gun sales and accessory sales online.

01:09:29.000 Did he want to ban ammo too?

01:09:30.000 Online sales of ammo?

01:09:32.000 Yeah, I do recall.

01:09:33.000 Yeah, he wrote a lot of vague, generalized language about not allowing people to buy a firearm within a certain amount of period, close to another purchase of a firearm.

01:09:43.000 He talked about banning online sales of anything gun related.

01:09:47.000 How could you vote for him and then actually go and expect to buy a gun?

01:09:50.000 Yeah.

01:09:50.000 And that's a weird question outright.

01:09:51.000 Like, how many people are actually going to this gun shop and saying they're Biden supporters who want to buy guns?

01:09:56.000 I guess they exist, but it's like, all right, I'll tell you what, you give, no, you have to give it to me.

01:10:00.000 Like, it's being confiscated.

01:10:02.000 You don't, you don't.

01:10:02.000 And it's interesting that this is, oh, you got a stink bug in there.

01:10:05.000 It's interesting that this is happening in Missouri, because in Missouri, this is also where the McCloskey case happened.

01:10:11.000 I'm still trying to look up the latest information about what's happening with them, but they're the couple that walked out with firearms with very poor trigger discipline and very point, very poor aim discipline.

01:10:22.000 Uh, when a BLM, uh, you know, pretty much protest broke down the fence of their door and, uh, you know, they say threatened them.

01:10:30.000 So I'm still trying to find out exactly what's going on.

01:10:32.000 What should they have done?

01:10:33.000 Like had their guns pointed down at the ground?

01:10:35.000 Well, when you see, I think it was Patricia McCloskey, she literally had her finger on the trigger and she was moving the gun around in a place where it was rightly behind her husband's head.

01:10:47.000 You're not supposed to do that.

01:10:49.000 That's not smart.

01:10:50.000 That's not smart.

01:10:51.000 I feel like everything else was appropriate given the information that I have.

01:10:55.000 Like it was a violent crowd and they're confronting you on your property. 0.98

01:11:01.000 So I feel like that's okay to point a gun at them with your finger on the trigger and be like, I'm actually going to shoot you if you keep coming at me.

01:11:08.000 They were on his property in a castle doctrine state. 0.97

01:11:09.000 Right, so it's like, in some states, you can shoot someone before they even get on your property.

01:11:16.000 In order to prevent someone entering your property, some states allow you to shoot somebody.

01:11:19.000 Wow, that's hardcore.

01:11:20.000 Yeah, and so there's like, I don't know the full details, but some states, like New Jersey, I think New Jersey has duty to retreat, meaning you're in your home in the middle of the night, and you're allowed to own a gun, and then someone breaks in.

01:11:31.000 If you can flee your home, you must.

01:11:34.000 But it's really funny, because I was talking to even a cop about this, and he laughed, and he was like, where are you gonna go?

01:11:39.000 It's your house!

01:11:40.000 Where do you go?

01:11:41.000 It makes no sense.

01:11:42.000 And I was like, yeah.

01:11:43.000 And then in other states, they have castle doctrine with no duty to retreat, but a duty to enter your home.

01:11:49.000 So like, let's say you live in, you know, Maryland, and you're on your front lawn or something, and you see someone coming towards you, you have to go into your house first.

01:11:58.000 Then if they try breaking in, you can defend your home.

01:12:02.000 In places I think like West Virginia, I'm pretty sure West Virginia is like, you see them on your property, you can shoot them.

01:12:06.000 In New York City, you defend yourself, you hurt the perp, you go to jail for the crime of hurting the perp.

01:12:11.000 So I know many instances and cases where people had violence brought upon them, they defended themselves, and because they left a mark on the attacker, the aggressor, they went to jail.

01:12:21.000 Really?

01:12:21.000 Yeah.

01:12:21.000 You're supposed to do no harm?

01:12:24.000 There's even stories in the United States where people were violently attacked, fought back, and with extreme cases of people trying to kill another person, that person defended themselves and they went to jail.

01:12:37.000 There's a number of cases.

01:12:39.000 It all depends on the jurisdictions and it all depends on who the attorney general is.

01:12:43.000 And this is why we've seen individuals like George Soros literally bankroll attorney generals all throughout the country that, of course, will play favorable into the agenda, into the narratives that they want to push.

01:12:53.000 The moral of the story is simple.

01:12:55.000 Don't live in blue states or blue cities.

01:12:56.000 Yes.

01:12:57.000 You have to go somewhere where you're allowed to be reasonable.

01:13:00.000 Defend yourself.

01:13:01.000 And when you do go, leave all of those policies there.

01:13:05.000 Yes.

01:13:06.000 That's amazing.

01:13:06.000 You see this story earlier about a guy from California who moved to Texas.

01:13:10.000 And then was like really upset and angry.

01:13:13.000 It was not a conservative utopia.

01:13:16.000 And it was like monoculture.

01:13:17.000 He just didn't like it so he leaves.

01:13:18.000 And it's like... You know what, man?

01:13:20.000 That's a good story.

01:13:21.000 You know why?

01:13:22.000 He left.

01:13:23.000 He didn't like it, he left.

01:13:24.000 It's remarkable because we have so many people now fleeing these big cities and going to these red areas where... 0.54

01:13:31.000 I can understand why the store is basically saying no Biden supporters can buy guns, because you've got Democrats from big cities moving to red areas, bringing those policies with them, and then they want to buy guns and then get them banned later.

01:13:44.000 What's the point?

01:13:45.000 Like, create grandfathered-in guns that only you can sell, like full-auto, you know?

01:13:50.000 What do they cost, like $20,000 for a belt-fed full-auto machine gun?

01:13:55.000 Yeah, belt-fed, you're gonna get way up in there.

01:13:57.000 Because it's grandfathered in, the only way to own it is if it's an existing... Right, there's a finite number, a lot of people want them.

01:14:03.000 So maybe that's the plan.

01:14:04.000 Maybe it's a bunch of rich people being like, if we get guns banned, then only we have the guns and we'll be worth a million bucks!

01:14:09.000 There you go.

01:14:09.000 That's a racket.

01:14:10.000 Yeah, the guy who moved to Texas and then back, I mean, one of the top reasons he left is because the weather was oppressive.

01:14:18.000 that uh that there was no public land that there was no snowy mountains that that people in austin were rude but uh you know you went to austin austin's yeah the liberal yeah yeah yeah they have a liberal mayor there who goes to uh vacation in the caribbean islands while telling everyone to stay home and not travel because of covid uh just like most democratic politicians who don't follow the law but i mean this guy sparked an interesting discussion but i do believe media organizations like the daily mail went too far they kind of doxxed him they released public information about his house where he lived his family photos and i'm like this is too far this is i mean people are enjoying calling him the new karen and dunking on him but but for me it was his old house

01:15:01.000 Yeah.

01:15:01.000 He didn't live there anymore.

01:15:02.000 Well, I don't know.

01:15:03.000 They're showing his house in San Diego and his house in Texas that he had.

01:15:10.000 Yeah, he doesn't live at either of those.

01:15:11.000 It's still a lot of personal information that's not really needed there.

01:15:14.000 And a lot of people are ragging on the guy, and I'm like, but he did the right thing.

01:15:17.000 He moved there, hated it, and left.

01:15:19.000 Exactly.

01:15:20.000 There you go!

01:15:20.000 If you don't like it, you move.

01:15:22.000 That's fine, and we shouldn't be criticizing him.

01:15:24.000 He does spark an interesting conversation, which I think we all should have, and that should be it.

01:15:30.000 You know what I think ultimately the biggest problem is?

01:15:33.000 It's that conservatives who live in conservative areas understand what city life is like to a certain degree, and don't care for what people do in cities.

01:15:40.000 But people who live in cities have no idea what rural life is like, and want everyone to live under the rules of a city.

01:15:45.000 Like, so I talked about it before.

01:15:46.000 If you live in Manhattan, even, I think Luke accidentally came out in support of gun regulation when I said, what happens if you live in New York City and you've got a 556 and someone breaks into your cubicle apartment?

01:16:00.000 And you said, maybe don't allow certain calibers.

01:16:03.000 Well, maybe some individuals, we had this argument.

01:16:06.000 I'm like, Tim, you should get a shotgun.

01:16:08.000 I don't know.

01:16:09.000 My walls in my RV are kind of thin there.

01:16:12.000 Well, so the point is I'll ask you Alex in New York for instance, I understand the right to bear arms Especially to defend yourself if you live in one of these cubicle loft apartments where you got 30 people surrounding your your you know 10 by 10 cube it smells like sour milk and someone breaks into your apartment a certain you know a certain bullets gonna go through walls and potentially hit other people and that could create a huge risk and Yeah, so all bullets are going to go through walls.

01:16:37.000 Like there is no bullet small enough that it's going to stop and drywall.

01:16:40.000 Even like a, what a hollow point 22?

01:16:41.000 Yeah.

01:16:42.000 Yeah, it would go it would go through but I mean like but just just assume that it's going to because this is this is

01:16:48.000 sort of the danger you get into with gun ownership of You're responsible for wherever that bullet goes period

01:16:55.000 So if it goes through who you shot into the 12 year old and two apartments down

01:17:00.000 Well that you know, you may have shot the guy Yes

01:17:03.000 But the consequence of that, you know was you've you've created an unacceptable consequence of that

01:17:09.000 You killed a 12 year you shot a 12 year old. So I mean this is something that a gun owner needs to be conscious of

01:17:16.000 This is something that you get through exposure to firearms in general, is you develop this knowledge over time.

01:17:23.000 Man, could you imagine living in New York City and there being a gun shop in Times Square where they're selling like a .308 and you can just buy it?

01:17:29.000 Well, to also clarify, you know, I'm not for the regulations.

01:17:33.000 But there is a particular gun culture that needs to be talked about, because when we went out to the range, we met a lot of random individuals in the middle of the woods, away from all the roads, and they were all courteous, they all looked you in your eye, they all talked to you, they all treated you with respect.

01:17:49.000 There was no attitude, there was no, you know, crap thrown your way.

01:17:53.000 There is a particular gun culture that takes safety very seriously, that makes sure that you don't point your muzzle at people, regardless of whether the gun is loaded or not loaded. 0.88

01:18:03.000 Yes, but Luke, it's not about gun culture, it's about regular people.

01:18:07.000 Remember you made that video about being on the subway with all those people everywhere?

01:18:11.000 Yes.

01:18:12.000 So Luke made this video a long time ago about being on the subway with millions of people.

01:18:15.000 Just keep going, you got nothing else to lose.

01:18:17.000 And they never talk to each other.

01:18:19.000 But how often, like we see videos of attacks, they happen.

01:18:22.000 But how often does the average person walk through New York, walking past all these people, and no one just randomly starts beating you or stabbing you?

01:18:28.000 Same way with driving, you never really veer the car over and ram into someone, you know?

01:18:32.000 You know, when I was 16, and like, well actually I got my license when I was 18, but when I was like first starting to learn how to drive, I was shocked when I realized that cars don't frequently bump into each other.

01:18:43.000 I was like, how's that possible?

01:18:45.000 You gotta park.

01:18:46.000 Cars gotta bump into each other.

01:18:47.000 It's like, well, sometimes when you're parallel parking, you might bump somebody.

01:18:50.000 But for the most part, millions upon millions of cars every day drive within inches of each other and never touch.

01:18:56.000 And I was like, Especially taxi drivers.

01:18:58.000 They drive like crazy.

01:19:00.000 I don't even want to say it.

01:19:02.000 Think about that.

01:19:04.000 When we went to the range and there were some other dudes there setting up targets and they had a bunch of guns too, I have no fear or no concern about them shooting me or anybody else because I don't regularly get attacked by random people.

01:19:15.000 Especially when you're at a range where people are going there for a purpose.

01:19:17.000 People who live in cities are paranoid and terrified that someone's gonna... You know what it is?

01:19:22.000 Maybe because there's too many nasty people who work in these offices or who are on Twitter, and they know that they're bad people, and they're just worried about someone coming to their office and, you know, going postal or something.

01:19:31.000 Yeah, desperation can breed violence, obviously, and in cities sometimes you have poverty and hunger, but trust is like such an integral part of being human.

01:19:39.000 You know, we got to where we are as a socially constructed species by trusting each other.

01:19:44.000 And also, I think people, when they decide to purchase a firearm, they understand that they're taking a very serious responsibility, that it comes with a lot of training, a lot of educating, and a huge, huge, you know, patience towards trying to understand the huge ramifications, and I think majority of people do that.

01:20:03.000 I thought the first thing everybody did when they bought guns was to go out in the parking lot like Yosemite Sam and just start firing wildly into the air.

01:20:08.000 Woo-hoo! 1.00

01:20:09.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:20:11.000 With, uh, some revolvers!

01:20:12.000 What kind of gun do you think Yosemite Sam was using?

01:20:14.000 Is that like a .45 ACP?

01:20:16.000 Um... .45 Long Colt.

01:20:18.000 I would say it's a .44 Magnum.

01:20:22.000 I'm thinking about, like, the stereotype of the character is what kind of bullet they used back then.

01:20:27.000 Oh, okay, hold on.

01:20:30.000 I don't know.

01:20:33.000 I'm sure someone in the super chat will correct me.

01:20:34.000 Speaking of corrections, I do want to go back.

01:20:38.000 We were talking about Nick's earlier, Nick's background checks.

01:20:40.000 So the 2020 annual total was $21.1 million.

01:20:45.000 Background checks.

01:20:46.000 So again, not all background checks result in a sale, and not all background checks are one-to-one with firearms.

01:20:53.000 And not all states require background checks to buy a firearm.

01:20:56.000 Wait, really?

01:20:56.000 Yeah, so if you have a permit, like in Iowa, I have a carry permit in Iowa, I don't have to do a background check.

01:21:02.000 A concealed carry?

01:21:03.000 In Iowa, it's just a carry.

01:21:05.000 Oh, wow.

01:21:06.000 I think.

01:21:06.000 And then if one person buys 20 guns, they only need to do one background check?

01:21:09.000 Not if you have a permit.

01:21:11.000 You just walk in and you go, I'll take that, that, that, that.

01:21:13.000 It all depends on the state.

01:21:14.000 But to clarify, the permit is a background check.

01:21:17.000 Yes.

01:21:17.000 You had to get one to get the permit.

01:21:18.000 Right, right, right.

01:21:18.000 But that was just one.

01:21:19.000 Yeah.

01:21:20.000 Yeah, so it's weird that, you know, so during the March for Our Lives protest, I went down there in a good faith attempt at talking to people.

01:21:27.000 I can't tell you how many people were holding up signs saying, ban assault rifles.

01:21:31.000 And so I would talk to them and be like, I just want to ask you about your sign.

01:21:33.000 And they'd be like, yeah, what about it?

01:21:34.000 And I'd be like, well, assault rifles are illegal and they've always been.

01:21:38.000 And I'm wondering if you were aware or what your goal is with the sign.

01:21:42.000 And they would go, oh, and like one lady like folded it up and she's like, I didn't know. 0.99

01:21:45.000 And I'm like, uh-huh.

01:21:46.000 What's an assault?

01:21:47.000 I mean, it's kind of a vague, a redundant question.

01:21:49.000 No, assault rifle is the definition.

01:21:50.000 How would you define an assault rifle?

01:21:53.000 Well, it's not really defined.

01:21:54.000 Well, assault rifle is selective fire rifle.

01:21:57.000 Yes, and no cuz that's that's in the legal definition.

01:22:01.000 That is a machine gun Right.

01:22:03.000 So the assault rifle is like the populist term that politicians like to use to scare people Assault weapon assault rifle is a is a is a rifle that has selective fire so you can do single burst or full-auto in the colloquial that is but the Legal terminology this is the machine gun because they're talking about legislation and passing laws What the Democrats tend to do, and some Republicans, is they say, assault weapon, and they can't define what an assault weapon is.

01:22:32.000 Right.

01:22:32.000 So like, we were talking about this, I don't know if we were talking about it on the air, but like, the M1A is illegal in Maryland, but the SCAR, what does Luke have, the SCAR-22?

01:22:40.000 SCAR-20.

01:22:41.000 SCAR-20.

01:22:41.000 I shouldn't be talking about that publicly, I guess.

01:22:42.000 But anyway, oh well, too late, cat's out of the bag.

01:22:45.000 The M1A is illegal in Maryland because it's a weapon of war, I guess, but it's like, The M1A is, is it fair to say it's like relatively archaic?

01:22:53.000 The M1 Garand was what, World War II?

01:22:55.000 Yes.

01:22:55.000 And so it's not, it's not the same as like a modern AR-15 that could shoot the same caliber, which is probably more efficient and easier to use.

01:23:04.000 Yeah.

01:23:04.000 So the point is, the assault weapon definition is like nonsensical almost.

01:23:10.000 And I know gun owners know this, and they've known this longer than I did, because you see the memes where it's like, this is illegal, this is legal, they're literally the same gun.

01:23:18.000 Um, assault rifle means means selective fire, which does that always mean that it has a full auto selection of single burst or full auto?

01:23:27.000 So, okay.

01:23:27.000 So machine talking, going back to the legal term, the machine gun is any weapon that fires more than one bullet with a single pull of the trigger.

01:23:35.000 Oh, so burst fire.

01:23:36.000 So burst fire, full auto, anything of that nature.

01:23:41.000 When you talk about assault weapons, assault rifles, these are vague and

01:23:46.000 undefined terms, which is why I sort of...

01:23:49.000 I'm pretty sure assault rifle is defined.

01:23:52.000 So it was popularized by Hitler, the term assault rifle, and it's a selective

01:23:57.000 fire rifle that uses an intermediate cartridge and a detachable magazine.

01:24:00.000 They were first put into mass production and accepted into wide use during World War II.

01:24:03.000 The first rifles were the German StG 44.

01:24:06.000 Assault weapon is the nonsensical term that has no real definition.

01:24:10.000 Right, like a flamethrower could be an assault weapon.

01:24:11.000 They assaulted...

01:24:12.000 There are some handguns that are assault weapons.

01:24:15.000 Grenades are assault weapons.

01:24:17.000 The language I'm trying to focus on is what's in U.S.

01:24:19.000 law, because assault weapon and assault rifle aren't defined anywhere in U.S.

01:24:24.000 law.

01:24:24.000 Except for by Hitler, apparently.

01:24:25.000 Except by Hitler. 0.90

01:24:26.000 Assault rifle, selective fire, burst fire.

01:24:28.000 So they think ARs are assault rifles by Hitler's definition.

01:24:31.000 And the reason they think that is because they look very similar to the common combat rifle issued to our, you know, the U.S.

01:24:39.000 Army.

01:24:39.000 Oh yeah, ARs don't fire bursts.

01:24:41.000 But they don't fire bursts.

01:24:42.000 They're not machine guns.

01:24:43.000 So they're not assault rifles.

01:24:44.000 So they're not any of those categories.

01:24:46.000 So you mentioned volley fire earlier, right?

01:24:48.000 Right.

01:24:48.000 Let's say you had a gun with like, let's say it was a 5.56 with like 15 barrels.

01:24:53.000 What if when you pull the trigger one time, it goes ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da Or would that be considered volley?

01:25:00.000 I think that's considered volley fire.

01:25:01.000 So it would function effectively.

01:25:02.000 I don't... The accuracy would not be the same as full auto.

01:25:05.000 Actually, it might be better.

01:25:06.000 I mean, I mean, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're chasing into the territory where, like, I'm not a legal expert and I don't actually know.

01:25:13.000 Um, also, like, I, I feel like it all depends on the mechanism.

01:25:19.000 Because if you pull the trigger once and it's like a physical, well, even then.

01:25:25.000 I don't know how you would initiate all of that.

01:25:28.000 It's, we get into a technical argument and you would need to send it to the ATF to be evaluated.

01:25:33.000 There's some crazy guns.

01:25:34.000 So I just Google searched it.

01:25:35.000 There's the S333 volley fire.

01:25:38.000 It's a prototype six barreled pepper box style pocket pistol.

01:25:41.000 There's a lot of things like, what does it, what does this one even shoot?

01:25:43.000 Is that binary fire? 0.93

01:25:45.000 Is that what we're talking about?

01:25:45.000 No, so binary fire is a whole other thing where you pull the trigger and it fires one round and then you let go of the trigger and it fires another round.

01:25:54.000 And this is not a machine gun because the law specifies a machine gun is a single operation of the trigger.

01:26:00.000 So just pulling the trigger is a single operation and letting the trigger go is another operation.

01:26:06.000 So is that legal?

01:26:07.000 Yeah.

01:26:08.000 Except in some states like Iowa.

01:26:10.000 Iowa you can't have binary triggers as far as I'm aware.

01:26:12.000 What if you just had multiple triggers?

01:26:15.000 So you could like play the guitar like and you're going brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Oh yeah, like you have a trigger, but it's actually three small slivers of triggers that you pull all three triggers, and then it fires three rounds.

01:26:35.000 No, you need three fingers to pull 1, 2, 3.

01:26:37.000 And you can go 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3.

01:26:39.000 You might not, actually.

01:26:40.000 You might not.

01:26:40.000 You might be able to just line three triggers up and pull them.

01:26:43.000 Well, then they might consider that single trigger pull.

01:26:45.000 Well, no, because you have three distinct triggers and three distinct operating mechanisms within that.

01:26:49.000 Call a lawyer, right?

01:26:50.000 Call a lawyer.

01:26:51.000 You can have nine triggers, one on each finger.

01:26:54.000 It's like, it's like bump fire.

01:26:56.000 It effectively allowed people to fire full auto.

01:26:59.000 And so they're like, no, that's got to be illegal.

01:27:01.000 And it's interesting because it does, right?

01:27:04.000 So what, you know, it's just people are going to keep finding different ways to make different kinds of guns.

01:27:08.000 Eventually there's going to be this weird shaped, you know, octagonal box with like pipes coming out the sides and you put your hands in it and then it does full auto and it's some crazy loophole to the law that allows it to function, you know, and you're playing the accordion and it's like... I think I'm familiar with the bump stock.

01:27:25.000 Can you explain the bump, how it seems full auto?

01:27:31.000 So, when you're holding the rifle, the stock and the rifle itself are not fixed together.

01:27:39.000 So they slide forward and back.

01:27:42.000 So you're pulling the rifle, the stock, against your shoulder.

01:27:46.000 Sorry, you're pulling the stock against your shoulder and you're pushing the front, the barrel, the handguard forward.

01:27:53.000 And then, yeah.

01:27:54.000 What happens is, where your finger goes, there's actually a stop.

01:28:00.000 And so your finger isn't on the trigger, it's on a piece of plastic.

01:28:03.000 Oh.

01:28:03.000 When you pull it forward, it pulls the trigger into your finger and then recoils back.

01:28:07.000 Oh, so you just keep pulling the trigger to you.

01:28:09.000 You pull the gun forward and it pulls, the trigger hits your finger, bounces back.

01:28:11.000 You pull it forward, it bounces back.

01:28:12.000 So by pulling the gun forward and putting that force, it's going brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Interesting. So they made those illegal, but bump fire is a

01:28:22.000 technique which was a lot of people were complaining about like if you if you want to bump fire you can just do it if

01:28:27.000 you know how to do it.

01:28:28.000 Yeah, you can loop your thumb through your belt loop and then wrap your finger around the trigger and just sort of

01:28:33.000 push forward a little bit and it'll just bump fire. 0.63

01:28:36.000 Yep.

01:28:36.000 So that's why a lot of people... Super easy to do.

01:28:38.000 But I think it's interesting because it's not going to stop there, especially with 3D printing.

01:28:43.000 The FGC-9 looks kind of crazy compared to other guns you're used to seeing.

01:28:47.000 It's only a matter of time before they'll keep trying to make rules and eventually they're going to try and make one all-encompassing rule and it won't work.

01:28:52.000 That's what I'm afraid of.

01:28:54.000 If the government makes a law they can't enforce and become a total mockery of themselves.

01:28:59.000 That's a real threat.

01:29:00.000 And then what happens when people have no faith in the system to enforce its own laws?

01:29:04.000 I don't know, man.

01:29:05.000 We're already at a point where if people really wanted to, they could get a 3D printer and make guns.

01:29:09.000 Hell yeah.

01:29:10.000 How hard was it back in the day to make a gun?

01:29:12.000 You know, like, I'm talking hundreds of years ago.

01:29:13.000 Smith and Wesson?

01:29:14.000 Getting someone to actually make the metal, it took hundreds of years to go from, like, muskets to cartridges.

01:29:20.000 That's crazy.

01:29:21.000 And then think about how long it's been, like, the rapid development in weapons technology over the past hundred years.

01:29:26.000 It's kind of crazy.

01:29:27.000 It's just nuts.

01:29:30.000 Yeah, they used to have like Smith, like gun manufacturers were huge, like single companies and super popular Smith and Wesson.

01:29:37.000 I don't really know.

01:29:37.000 They still are.

01:29:38.000 But, but now there's just hundreds of thousands of gun manufacturers.

01:29:42.000 I would imagine.

01:29:43.000 I mean, literally, if there's people printing them.

01:29:45.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:29:46.000 Now everyone is a gun manufacturer.

01:29:47.000 Can you start a gun manufacturing company with little oversight using 3D printers and then serializing them?

01:29:55.000 I mean, you could.

01:29:58.000 From the business perspective, there's a lot of hurdles to overcome, like your financial processing is a problem with all the financial censorship that's going on.

01:30:08.000 Yeah, doesn't MasterCard stop?

01:30:12.000 Didn't they release a statement that they're not going to allow people to use their credit cards at gun stores?

01:30:18.000 I don't know if they actually followed through with that or not.

01:30:22.000 I remember that was a big issue.

01:30:23.000 But what are some of the other financial restraints?

01:30:25.000 Well, even like you're considered the Obama administration put forth Operation Chokepoint, which classified firearms dealers or anyone in the firearms space as a high risk business.

01:30:37.000 And that added a whole bunch of additional restrictions on who they could do banking with and credit card processing with.

01:30:44.000 And it really limited to none of the major credit card processors will work with you if you're a business.

01:30:50.000 Well, most of them won't.

01:30:52.000 There are very few, but your service with them is really limited based on the political climate these days.

01:31:03.000 So there's a company that does crowdfunding, like GoFundMe, for gun-related projects called Gun Dynamics.

01:31:12.000 Their credit card processor canceled their contract with them, I think, today.

01:31:17.000 I think this was today.

01:31:19.000 So it's...

01:31:21.000 And just, I don't know what the reason or any background on that, I just heard that this happened.

01:31:26.000 Crypto's the way to go?

01:31:27.000 Yeah, I mean, what else can you do?

01:31:29.000 Cryptocurrency.

01:31:30.000 The remarkable thing about cryptocurrency is that it doesn't matter which one you use.

01:31:34.000 Not even.

01:31:35.000 So the Mines token, do you know what it's currently trading at?

01:31:39.000 It's ranged between like...

01:31:42.000 33 cents and a $1.25, I think?

01:31:44.000 You know what doesn't matter?

01:31:46.000 The value of the token.

01:31:47.000 Because I'll put it this way.

01:31:48.000 Let's say this gun company gets their credit card processor shut down.

01:31:51.000 So they announce that, uh, you know what?

01:31:53.000 We're gonna use mine's tokens.

01:31:55.000 And then all that matters is, I can then buy mine's tokens, the correct value, send it to them, then they can immediately transfer it into U.S.

01:32:02.000 currency.

01:32:03.000 Through a regular market.

01:32:05.000 So it doesn't matter what the credit card company wants to do.

01:32:07.000 There's a way to transfer the value instantly.

01:32:10.000 Oh, I was thinking about a gun that shoots crypto or like every time you pull the trigger.

01:32:15.000 Hold on.

01:32:16.000 It sounds like a joke now, but in 50 years we'll look back on this.

01:32:19.000 Every time you pull the trigger, it charges your account?

01:32:21.000 No, it writes the blockchain so you know when the bullet was fired.

01:32:24.000 Oh, that's a good idea.

01:32:26.000 Maybe it's a good idea.

01:32:27.000 It depends on your, if you want mass surveillance, you know what I mean?

01:32:29.000 Depends on execution and who has access to that data.

01:32:33.000 Right.

01:32:33.000 It's an idea.

01:32:35.000 Right.

01:32:35.000 Yeah.

01:32:36.000 Yeah.

01:32:37.000 Tracking when bullets are fired.

01:32:38.000 Oh, that's cool.

01:32:38.000 And where they went?

01:32:39.000 Well, I don't know how you transfer where they went.

01:32:41.000 Where they land?

01:32:41.000 If the gun has GPS on it.

01:32:43.000 If the bullets have GPS?

01:32:44.000 Well, now we're getting into smart guns.

01:32:45.000 That's a whole nother... Like the depleted uranium bullets that are left over in Iraq are devastating.

01:32:50.000 They're like in the dirt, irradiating people.

01:32:52.000 Munitions.

01:32:53.000 But you know where they were shot, you don't necessarily know where they would go.

01:32:56.000 Like, they can't put a GPS in the bullet, you know what I mean?

01:32:59.000 Well, I don't know, who knows what crazy tech the military has at this point, for all we know.

01:33:02.000 You know, they got little flies with cameras on them that fly around.

01:33:05.000 There was a cool project ten years ago of these really tiny drones that were like this big, and they flew like dragonflies.

01:33:11.000 That was so cool.

01:33:11.000 That was ten years ago?

01:33:12.000 Ten years ago.

01:33:13.000 Okay, it was like eight years ago.

01:33:14.000 Nanodrones!

01:33:16.000 I mean, they weren't nano.

01:33:16.000 They were pretty big.

01:33:18.000 They probably are nano drones.

01:33:18.000 But they were really light and they had cameras on them.

01:33:20.000 And it was a Kickstarter, I think.

01:33:22.000 I don't know whatever happened to that project.

01:33:24.000 But there are tiny little flying drones, man.

01:33:26.000 They got them.

01:33:26.000 It's the stink bug that keeps dive-bombing you.

01:33:28.000 Yeah, I know.

01:33:28.000 It's just spying on us.

01:33:29.000 I'm afraid of nano drones that'll fly in people's ears and kill them.

01:33:33.000 You ever see that Black Mirror where the bees killed everybody?

01:33:36.000 The robo-bees?

01:33:38.000 Anyway, yeah, I don't I wonder if we'll come to a point where people start 3d printing like like you can buy disposable guns like disposable cameras like you walk into the shop It's like I just need the 20 shot and it comes the magazine preloaded and it can't be reloaded It just it's done when it's done and you throw in the garbage cuz it's just like plastic with a nail in it I'm most excited about 3d printing ammo and I know you talked a little bit about it or do you have any information?

01:34:01.000 Oh It's still, it's still very much an alpha sort of development.

01:34:06.000 Like I said, we're still, we're still working at the chemistry to get smokeless powder.

01:34:10.000 We're still working out like the, the actual construction of the round and what kind of calibers you can use and what kind of pressures you can get.

01:34:17.000 So there's a lot in development and, you know, if you guys are interested.

01:34:21.000 Are chemists and you're interested in in getting in this space? This is somewhere

01:34:26.000 I heard you can make I heard you make a make you can make both out of bat poop 1.00

01:34:29.000 Say what I heard you can make bullets out of bat poop. What are you sure? 1.00

01:34:33.000 No, that's cuz bat has something specific in a salt coronavirus. Yeah

01:34:37.000 Something else like I was reading like how they would make black powder back in the day. Yeah, it doesn't have

01:34:43.000 phosphorus in it. Is that it?

01:34:44.000 I don't know.

01:34:44.000 I think so.

01:34:45.000 I don't know how to make gunpowder, white powder, whatever.

01:34:48.000 Smokeless powder is the better, safer?

01:34:51.000 Smokeless is what's in modern cartridges.

01:34:54.000 Black powder is what they used to use, what a lot of people still use for certain types of hunting, but it's easier to make.

01:35:01.000 So what, like the original bullets had tons of smoke that would come out?

01:35:03.000 Yeah, it was really just a lot of smoke here.

01:35:06.000 Oh, yeah.

01:35:07.000 They transitioned because if it got wet, they wouldn't fire.

01:35:11.000 That was more of a problem of like having the whole muzzle loading in general where everything was just exposed to the elements all the time.

01:35:21.000 AKs can fire when they're soaked, right?

01:35:22.000 Well, everything can fire when it's soaked.

01:35:24.000 You can duck an M4 in a pool and still fire. 0.98

01:35:27.000 Yeah.

01:35:27.000 And the bullets too.

01:35:28.000 If the bullets get wet, they'll still fire.

01:35:29.000 Yeah.

01:35:29.000 Cause everything's encapsulated in that cartridge.

01:35:32.000 So when you're printing, you can print the casing of the bullet out of plastic?

01:35:35.000 Is that?

01:35:37.000 No, not yet.

01:35:37.000 So we're, we're not there yet.

01:35:39.000 Um, it's, we're getting there.

01:35:43.000 Well, like shotgun shells are plastic, but they have, uh, the metal primer cap, right?

01:35:46.000 Yeah, so shotgun shells is a chemistry.

01:35:49.000 There is a guy working on printable shotgun stuff.

01:35:52.000 It's the Liberator 12K project.

01:35:55.000 It's another cool one.

01:35:57.000 It's not entirely 3D printed, similar to the FGC9 where you're using off-the-shelf parts, but it's a 12-gauge that you can print.

01:36:07.000 And it functions pretty well.

01:36:09.000 He's still, it's still in beta.

01:36:11.000 He's doing a lot of, he's been testing it for like three years.

01:36:14.000 He's going thorough on the testing.

01:36:16.000 I was watching that movie, News of the World, and it's really interesting because, you know, if you don't know the history of guns, but Tom Hanks' character has birdshot, but he has brass shotgun shells that he loads and he like pours the birdshot out.

01:36:28.000 And then, spoiler alert, if you haven't seen the movie, you've been warned.

01:36:31.000 There's a scene where he's fighting with people and all he has is a birdshot.

01:36:35.000 He runs out of bullets in his revolver and then this little girl puts coins in the brass shells and then he shoots and kills a guy with coins.

01:36:43.000 I think Mythbusters did an episode on that.

01:36:47.000 Yeah, it didn't work very well.

01:36:48.000 But it, like, you know, whether or not it would work, it was interesting this idea that shotgun shells used to be brass and reloadable, basically.

01:36:54.000 Yeah.

01:36:54.000 That's crazy.

01:36:55.000 I mean, polymers are still very new in, like, the history of humanity.

01:37:00.000 Yeah.

01:37:00.000 So before polymers, what did you, what kind of soft metal did you have?

01:37:03.000 Well, you had brass and... Well, they started doing paper shells.

01:37:06.000 Yeah.

01:37:07.000 Paper?

01:37:07.000 Yeah, because it just blows the whole thing and sprays it out anyway, so.

01:37:10.000 They're working with like, um, recovering plastic, melting it back down in like an anaerobic environment with no oxygen back into like liquid oil.

01:37:19.000 And then you can use that as a printing filament.

01:37:21.000 Oh, wow.

01:37:22.000 And you can also grind up the pellets and melt the pellets that way a lot easier.

01:37:25.000 So if you can start making ammo out of recovered plastic and like scrap metal, I think that's the key.

01:37:30.000 You need the primer, obviously, which I don't know, carbon.

01:37:32.000 I don't know if you've ever messed with graphene at all as a, I haven't, but I'm absolutely not the chemist.

01:37:40.000 I have no idea what's going on.

01:37:42.000 It's magic to me.

01:37:43.000 If we could pull carbon out of the carbon dioxide and help make primer out of that, that'd be interesting too.

01:37:48.000 I'm really spitballing here.

01:37:49.000 Well, how about we go to Super Chats and see what everybody else has to say.

01:37:51.000 If you haven't already, smash that like button.

01:37:54.000 And go to TimCast.com, become a member to help support the show.

01:37:56.000 We're gonna have more bonus content for all y'all coming up later tonight.

01:37:59.000 So let's take your questions and comments.

01:38:02.000 David Young says, excuse my lack of knowledge, but what's a grifter, fence-sitter, and milk-toast? 0.94

01:38:07.000 People keep calling you this, but just sound like silly kindergarten insults.

01:38:10.000 Okay, a grifter is someone who pretends to have opinions in exchange for money. 0.53

01:38:15.000 A fence-sitter is someone who actually has no strong opinions and is sitting on the fence.

01:38:18.000 And milk-toast means your opinions are extremely weak.

01:38:21.000 I'm impressed that I can be all three of those at the exact same time.

01:38:25.000 All right, let's see.

01:38:26.000 Dominic Bristow says, I am also a gorilla.

01:38:29.000 That's wonderful.

01:38:30.000 And you might notice that the I am a gorilla shirt is now pinned above the, I believe it's pinned in the chat.

01:38:33.000 So you can, you can buy that.

01:38:37.000 Let's see.

01:38:38.000 Mao Damadi says, you had me at bum bum probe.

01:38:41.000 Love clickbait.

01:38:42.000 It's not clickbait though.

01:38:43.000 People are like, this is not real.

01:38:45.000 I saw people in chat saying it's not real.

01:38:46.000 It's clickbait.

01:38:47.000 It's a real story.

01:38:48.000 We didn't make up the headline.

01:38:50.000 They're literally doing it.

01:38:52.000 Zinger says, Yo Tim, I'm Permaban from PayPal.

01:38:55.000 Do you plan on using any other payment processors?

01:38:57.000 Check out CoinPayments if you haven't heard of it.

01:38:59.000 I'd love to subscribe, but literally can't.

01:39:02.000 We are talking about setting up something just like off PayPal, I guess.

01:39:09.000 We'll figure it out.

01:39:10.000 The whole system on TimGuys.com is relatively new, and we're just trying to build it and make sure it works and then, you know, grow.

01:39:15.000 But we're gonna figure it out.

01:39:18.000 Gerald Armstrong says, Tim, talk to Sargon to get Count Dankula on Adam's show.

01:39:22.000 Uh, sure.

01:39:23.000 I've also been talking to Sargon and Dankula to get him on this show, and COVID makes it, uh, just very, very difficult to do.

01:39:29.000 Dankula has family obligations, too.

01:39:31.000 Yeah.

01:39:33.000 Let's see.

01:39:34.000 5882300 says, New member here was hoping to help you or anyone in the Geodome quest with a shoutout from my buddy's company.

01:39:40.000 Thunder Domes.

01:39:41.000 We design and make custom cheap domes.

01:39:43.000 Hope you'll give us a look.

01:39:44.000 P.S.

01:39:45.000 How did you not finish the jingle?

01:39:47.000 Which jingle?

01:39:49.000 I don't know.

01:39:50.000 I don't know.

01:39:52.000 We're looking at doing domes, but man, is it really hard to buy land right now.

01:39:55.000 And the longer it takes, like... Man, all the rich people fleeing the big cities are buying up land like crazy!

01:40:01.000 Which is kind of a bummer, man.

01:40:05.000 Stump says, this is eerily similar to the debut South Park episode, Moving My Retirement Portfolio to Astroglide.

01:40:13.000 Smart man.

01:40:14.000 People have been, because I tweeted the story, people are sending me a lot of South Park images of poor Cartman during that very famous South Park episode where he was probed by the aliens.

01:40:25.000 Cargoosh says, rectum douche for victory against the silent enemy.

01:40:29.000 To quote Emperor Biden, we need a full scale wartime effort.

01:40:33.000 Yes.

01:40:34.000 Michael Gilley says, Mr. Poole, have you or have you not, in fact, started a polyamorous prepper cult?

01:40:40.000 Also, I am a gorilla.

01:40:41.000 I have not, unfortunately.

01:40:42.000 It's just not the case.

01:40:43.000 So, uh, that won't be happening.

01:40:45.000 Giving me some ideas there.

01:40:47.000 Omar says, Tim, as a Canadian, I'd love if you covered some of the stuff happening up here.

01:40:50.000 Two weeks ago, an Ontario Conservative MPP was booted from the party for writing a letter to the Premier with sources with suggestions to exit lockdown.

01:40:58.000 Wow.

01:41:00.000 Well, you know, it's the Great Reset.

01:41:02.000 It is upon us.

01:41:03.000 The Davos group is rather successful in all of their efforts, so, you know, good for them.

01:41:09.000 Foobadoo says, hey, Ctrl-Pew, don't 3D print guns explode in your hands?

01:41:12.000 Can't stop the signal.

01:41:14.000 Do they explode in your hands?

01:41:16.000 They absolutely do.

01:41:19.000 So they don't because people who are only listening have no idea you held your hands up.

01:41:23.000 I forget there's like an audio component.

01:41:25.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:41:26.000 He held up his hands.

01:41:26.000 His hands are completely intact.

01:41:28.000 Either that or I have a really great prosthetics.

01:41:30.000 Yeah.

01:41:32.000 Break the chains.

01:41:33.000 Media says now that Styx Hexenhammer is back in Vermont, you need to get him on IRL.

01:41:37.000 Myself and thousands of others would love to hear you and Styx banter and discuss culture and society.

01:41:41.000 Look at my content too.

01:41:43.000 I would love to have Styx on the show.

01:41:45.000 We're working on it.

01:41:46.000 And smash that like button if you haven't already.

01:41:48.000 It is greatly appreciated.

01:41:50.000 Let's see what we got here.

01:41:51.000 Brent Sagan says, Hey Tim, I fell behind on a bunch of your videos and to catch up, I listened to them at two times speed and hearing you all live makes you sound drunk.

01:42:00.000 Uh, well you can always go back and watch these old episodes at two times speed as well.

01:42:04.000 Yes.

01:42:05.000 I think the, uh, what we're doing now for the members only content also has a speed boost too.

01:42:10.000 So now you should be able to watch that in a lower resolution and which makes it easier to stream as well as increase the speed.

01:42:15.000 Cool.

01:42:17.000 Ken L says your stream did not show up on my subscription feed.

01:42:20.000 Had to go to Timcast IRL page to see if your stream was live.

01:42:23.000 I'm not surprised, but it was a first.

01:42:25.000 I mean, I am, we put anal swab in the title and I had a feeling YouTube was going to be like, we don't promote that here.

01:42:31.000 And I was like, I don't care.

01:42:32.000 It's the story.

01:42:33.000 We're doing it.

01:42:35.000 You know, if we did something like... I don't know, just use buzzwords.

01:42:40.000 What are you, Minecraft?

01:42:42.000 What's it?

01:42:42.000 Minecraft, Fortnite, PewDiePie, Democrat.

01:42:46.000 Bozongas. 1.00

01:42:47.000 Yeah, Bozonga, boom! 0.99

01:42:48.000 Birthday. 1.00

01:42:48.000 No, if you put Bozongas, you're gonna get knocked down like anal swab. 1.00

01:42:52.000 I don't know. 0.98

01:42:52.000 But like birthday and then someone's name, famous name. 0.98

01:42:55.000 Marriage, baby, birthday.

01:42:57.000 They do it on Twitter.

01:42:59.000 Someone did an experiment on Facebook where they would put something like just got married or something in all of their posts because the algorithm would boost those words because people interact with marriage and childbirth.

01:43:12.000 Like congratulations.

01:43:13.000 So they would be like, I just, you know, gave birth to a baby boy.

01:43:17.000 Anyway, here's my new book.

01:43:18.000 It's coming out.

01:43:19.000 Yup.

01:43:20.000 Lua Coder says, Tim, I am now going out of my way to buy things that are not from China, and I've realized how difficult it is.

01:43:26.000 I refuse to support this regime, and I encourage everyone else to do so, even if it sacrifices convenience.

01:43:31.000 I completely agree.

01:43:33.000 And we do try.

01:43:34.000 We need to try harder, for sure.

01:43:36.000 Payne Cabal says, get FPS Russia over to talk guns with you. 0.98

01:43:40.000 That'd be cool.

01:43:41.000 Pirate Tomsky says, that's why it's spreading, Tim.

01:43:43.000 The lefties have been covering the wrong poophole the whole time.

01:43:47.000 Oh, jeez. 0.99

01:43:49.000 Dozerman says, keep an extra mask in your disgusting pocket. 0.97

01:43:53.000 Touch it, cough, and sneeze in it, and realize masks aren't the most sanitary thing to touch and reuse. 0.92

01:43:57.000 It just shows you're in the cult.

01:43:59.000 Well, look.

01:44:01.000 They're disposable masks that are super cheap.

01:44:03.000 I understand the purpose of masks, and I really have no problem using it.

01:44:06.000 The problem is the level of absurdity when they're like, nowhere to, or in China when they're like, bend over, here it comes again. 0.94

01:44:12.000 You know, not really interested in all that.

01:44:15.000 Let's, uh, Cargouche says, You misunderstand, and it's very important to understand this.

01:44:20.000 They're not getting rid of the gifted programs because of equality.

01:44:22.000 They're getting rid of them because of a belief in equity.

01:44:25.000 That's right.

01:44:26.000 Yep.

01:44:27.000 The Black Metal says, I'd be careful with making your own guns. 0.98

01:44:29.000 Last month, ATF rated Polymer 80 because of the idea of receivers having no serial.

01:44:34.000 The Biden admin is pushing hard on this ghost gun thing.

01:44:38.000 Yeah, that's what I was saying.

01:44:38.000 I think their goal is to create obstructions and hurdles to make it very difficult for you to do.

01:44:42.000 And to scare the populace.

01:44:45.000 Yep.

01:44:46.000 Ghost gun.

01:44:46.000 Sounds scary, right?

01:44:48.000 And just like if they'll raid one person, it's like, and then they make stories about it, like, don't let you be the next.

01:44:53.000 Be afraid.

01:44:54.000 Don't do it.

01:44:55.000 King O. Jingling says, Hi gang, I'm raising awareness for the farmer protests in India right now.

01:45:00.000 We're trying to repeal three agricultural laws that only benefit corporations.

01:45:04.000 The fight against corporate government is the same worldwide.

01:45:06.000 Love your work.

01:45:08.000 I believe corporate government is fascism.

01:45:10.000 Yeah.

01:45:11.000 The left likes to say it's not because fascism is ultra-nationalistic, and I feel like that's like a deviation.

01:45:17.000 If, you know, the goal of the Nazis and the fascists was like world domination and taking everything over, how is that nationalistic when you're invading other countries? 0.63

01:45:24.000 You know what I mean?

01:45:26.000 Also, it's really weird that they keep saying fascist over and over again with like an emphasis on Italy instead of Nazis with an emphasis on Hitler.

01:45:32.000 Like, they call people Nazis for sure, but they really like saying fascist over and over again as if, like, Italy was the prime problem in World War II.

01:45:40.000 They were one of the big problems, but Nazi Germany was it. 0.96

01:45:43.000 I want to give a shout-out to the Federal Reserve, because I feel like it's the most fascist thing in our country right now.

01:45:48.000 It's like a corporation with no government oversight that's controlling our government, our monetary supply, which is kind of our government.

01:45:56.000 This is interesting.

01:45:57.000 Octorian says Rand Paul got 45 senators to kill the second impeachment.

01:46:01.000 Yeah.

01:46:01.000 Oh, good.

01:46:02.000 Thanks.

01:46:02.000 Good.

01:46:03.000 Which means Trump can run again if it's done.

01:46:05.000 And Trump can pour $72 million into a bunch of political campaigns because he repealed that, uh... The lobbying thing?

01:46:12.000 Yeah, he's lobbying.

01:46:14.000 I read an article about it yesterday.

01:46:15.000 He's already at it.

01:46:15.000 Well, I think he wants to run again, so he's disavowing the Patriot Party filings.

01:46:19.000 Like, people have filed saying that they're joint fundraising.

01:46:21.000 He's like, that's not true.

01:46:22.000 And apparently he's told Republicans he's not going to start a new political party.

01:46:25.000 I guess that's that's probably the compromise. He probably went to them and said,

01:46:30.000 if you convict me, I will start a new political party and get people to run against you.

01:46:33.000 It'll be the end of the Republicans, which I think it would be a great thing.

01:46:37.000 I think people need to stop saying, but we have to have the Republican Party.

01:46:41.000 There's a poll showing if people had a choice between the Patriot Party,

01:46:45.000 the Republicans, Democrats or other, who would they vote for?

01:46:47.000 And Republican and Patriot are split.

01:46:50.000 Democrats have 46%, but if you combine Republican with Patriot Party, it still loses to the Democrats.

01:46:55.000 People are not going to vote for Republicans next time around.

01:46:58.000 It's not going to happen.

01:47:00.000 Because of gerrymandering, there's a possibility the Republicans reclaim the House.

01:47:03.000 That's a play.

01:47:05.000 But I think without Trump, a lot of people are walking away.

01:47:08.000 That's why they need Trump.

01:47:11.000 Trump, if they convict him, it's all over for the Republicans.

01:47:14.000 But like I said, even then, you know, in a presidential election, Democrats would win.

01:47:19.000 Forrest Horlacher says, I think it's very important that we do not give up and keep people in the know.

01:47:30.000 It may seem redundant to you.

01:47:31.000 It looks like there's another one from him coming up because it's got cut off, but I will just say right now, I'm not saying don't say it.

01:47:38.000 I'm saying it's getting to the point where we all know.

01:47:40.000 And instead of saying, oh no, the double standard, we say, well, there is a double standard and everyone knows.

01:47:46.000 And it's not an issue of like, whether it is or isn't real.

01:47:49.000 It is literally real.

01:47:51.000 So let's see.

01:47:51.000 I think there may have been another super chat, but, uh, I don't know where it is cause it got cut off.

01:47:55.000 But, uh, you know, Vasht says Gatling guns are not machine guns.

01:48:01.000 So you can legally own Gatling guns.

01:48:03.000 Apparently.

01:48:03.000 I'm not, I don't know.

01:48:05.000 All depends on your state too.

01:48:08.000 Yeah, there you go.

01:48:09.000 I'm gonna investigate that.

01:48:10.000 Let's see where we're at.

01:48:11.000 Zanzibar says, you can make an AR-15 full auto, and I'm not going to read all of this just in case, but he says, it is illegal.

01:48:18.000 You should be, uh, yes, you should be able to have it.

01:48:20.000 Whether you, yeah.

01:48:21.000 So, I can't, I'm not going to read a super chat that mentions something is literally illegal, but apparently you can.

01:48:28.000 They sell conversion kits for this stuff too, isn't it?

01:48:30.000 But it's like illegal?

01:48:31.000 Like the ATF tries to get people to do it?

01:48:33.000 Yeah, there's a lot of that funny business going around.

01:48:36.000 Don't do it!

01:48:37.000 Obey the law.

01:48:40.000 Zachary Daly says, hopefully you see this bought a camera.

01:48:44.000 I can make money from pretty much anywhere looking to start broadcasting and recording these instances in the US.

01:48:49.000 Since YouTube seems unsafe, what would you recommend?

01:48:53.000 Honestly, I don't know.

01:48:55.000 YouTube will ban you if you're a journalist.

01:48:57.000 So journalists, independent journalists are just getting nuked across the board because unfiltered content that just shows things happening is a violation of YouTube's rules.

01:49:05.000 I'm not even kidding. 0.96

01:49:07.000 Be a good slave, work for CNN, be promoted in the algorithm, be promoted in the search, and then five years later expose all the horrible crap that they did. 0.99

01:49:16.000 Also use minds. 0.83

01:49:17.000 Use multiple platforms and start your own website and host your content on your own website too.

01:49:21.000 And then use things like Twitter and YouTube to promote it as long as you can.

01:49:25.000 Also, Library and Odyssey, for us anyway, they've been a great platform to host content on.

01:49:30.000 Like, we put all of our files up on there, all of our media goes up on there, and they're one of the few platforms that advertise us as, you know, look, the 3D-printed gun people are here.

01:49:41.000 They're super cool.

01:49:42.000 I mirrored my entire YouTube catalog on Library, on Odyssey.

01:49:45.000 Very cool.

01:49:46.000 Why hasn't someone created a social media platform that just aggregates all the social media platforms?

01:49:51.000 Because you need all the different APIs.

01:49:52.000 No, you don't.

01:49:52.000 They could open as a browser.

01:49:55.000 You could create an app that just switches between the browsers and it's logged in on each one.

01:50:00.000 And it stores the cookie.

01:50:00.000 What do you mean, switches between the browsers?

01:50:02.000 So, it could just function like a browser.

01:50:04.000 Okay, so you build a browser, what does it do exactly?

01:50:06.000 It holds four specific tabs for, you know, or whatever social networks, and then you just swipe left and right between all of them and it's just functioning like a browser.

01:50:14.000 So you'll have someone's YouTube channel, you'll click their profile, and then it'll load up a browser with all of their social media, and you get all of it in one feed because it functions like a browser.

01:50:23.000 If you wanted to get it in one feed, the API thing, I understand.

01:50:26.000 But you could literally just swipe left and right on their different posts.

01:50:29.000 To just go to their YouTube channel, their Facebook channel, their Twitter channel?

01:50:32.000 Well, no, you could just do that with Brave.

01:50:35.000 You just don't have to open all their channels.

01:50:36.000 The idea is to create an app where you can follow people but not control banning them because you don't actually host any content.

01:50:41.000 So here's the idea.

01:50:42.000 They say, Parler got banned because they were hosting violent content and refuse to take it down.

01:50:48.000 Okay, here's what I'll do.

01:50:50.000 I will create an app that allows people to follow each other, but you literally can post nothing.

01:50:55.000 You will never post anything.

01:50:56.000 We will store nothing.

01:50:58.000 The only thing we get is your name.

01:51:00.000 And then, if someone clicks your name, you, as the person, the only thing you can do is include links to your other social platforms.

01:51:06.000 So if they come to us and say, your app is hosting this, that's not true.

01:51:09.000 That's Twitter.

01:51:10.000 That's not us.

01:51:11.000 All we do is a directory for individuals and their social media.

01:51:14.000 So like a portal?

01:51:16.000 Kind of.

01:51:16.000 Platform?

01:51:17.000 But you'd be following them.

01:51:18.000 So you'd pull up your app, and then you'd, you know, you'd see the individuals, and you'd see, like, all it would say is, you know, you'd click the person, and then you'd see their Twitter.

01:51:27.000 And then you'd swipe, you'd see their YouTube, you'd swipe, you'd see their Instagram.

01:51:29.000 And it functions like a browser.

01:51:30.000 That's it.

01:51:31.000 It's just a browser, and it loads the website when you click it.

01:51:35.000 Then you'll be able to follow everybody, and they can't ban you.

01:51:38.000 So what happens is, Let's say you're on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube.

01:51:42.000 And then I open my app, and I'm following Ian Crossland.

01:51:46.000 And I go to your name, and I see these three things where you post.

01:51:49.000 But then one day you're banned from all of them.

01:51:51.000 I still follow you, but now you have no active socials.

01:51:54.000 So you go in, and you change the link to Gab.

01:51:57.000 Now when I click you, I still see your posts.

01:51:59.000 Oh, I see.

01:51:59.000 But you're still following me, so I don't lose my followership.

01:52:02.000 Exactly.

01:52:02.000 You lose no followers, and who you're following.

01:52:05.000 And you can be banned a million times, and then eventually you just set up your own website.

01:52:09.000 And then when I click your name, it just loads your website in, you know, superstar.com or whatever.

01:52:15.000 Maybe I shouldn't have given that idea away.

01:52:17.000 Someone should build that.

01:52:19.000 Make it open source so people can make more of them.

01:52:21.000 An open source directory that allows you to follow anyone but doesn't post anything.

01:52:27.000 So Amazon can't say, oh you're hosting this content.

01:52:30.000 We're literally not.

01:52:31.000 It's literally just a browser where someone has linked to their social accounts.

01:52:36.000 That's it.

01:52:36.000 I guess let me ask you this.

01:52:37.000 Do you think it would matter to Amazon that you're not actually hosting Because it doesn't matter to YouTube or Google whether or not you violated their terms of service, they're still going to delete your account and take down the video.

01:52:47.000 Another thing to really... I saw a new report that came out that talked about how 94% of all child abuse images came from Facebook.

01:52:57.000 You know, when you have that in comparison to Parler being taken down, that's a big difference there.

01:53:01.000 So, to add to that point that you were making.

01:53:04.000 I think the idea would work.

01:53:05.000 I mean, obviously they would try to get rid of it, and they would say it's a directory listing a bunch of extremists or whatever, and I'd be like, we don't host anything.

01:53:13.000 At all.

01:53:14.000 All we do is it's a list of people, like, their names, and then the content is from somewhere entirely different.

01:53:19.000 It's a browser.

01:53:20.000 It's a browser with people who can make suggestions.

01:53:23.000 I guess they can argue people could put in links to, like, bad sites or something.

01:53:26.000 Yeah.

01:53:27.000 But you could make it so that they can only link to Twitter, like, they can only link to existing social platforms or whatever.

01:53:32.000 But then I could link to your Twitter account with my...

01:53:36.000 Yeah.

01:53:38.000 No.

01:53:41.000 Or it's just the wrong account, and they're telling you to follow somebody else, I guess.

01:53:44.000 Yeah.

01:53:45.000 Yeah.

01:53:46.000 Boom.

01:53:47.000 There we go.

01:53:49.000 They would still, you know, probably try and remove the app from the App Store or whatever.

01:53:55.000 And that's what people argued, too, like, when they were banning all these social networks.

01:53:58.000 It's like, dude, what are you gonna do, ban a browser?

01:54:01.000 That's literally what they did when they banned Gab's Fediverse app.

01:54:03.000 It was like banning a browser.

01:54:05.000 What's that thing called?

01:54:07.000 Fediverse?

01:54:08.000 No, no.

01:54:09.000 Gab made a browser extension, I think it's called.

01:54:11.000 Oh, Decentre.

01:54:12.000 Yeah, Decentre, where you can comment on any website.

01:54:15.000 PocketNet is like a decentralized blockchain social network.

01:54:18.000 That's pretty promising.

01:54:19.000 Yeah.

01:54:20.000 I like where that's headed.

01:54:22.000 Let's read some more Super Chats!

01:54:24.000 Geary Vision says, we weren't allowed to use crew-served weapons in many populated areas of Iraq and Afghan due to high numbers of civilian casualties.

01:54:31.000 Pelosi wanted to unleash them on our own streets. 0.86

01:54:34.000 F-ing disgraceful. 0.99

01:54:35.000 Evil personified. 0.89

01:54:38.000 Joe Walton says, Illinois has concealed carry now, but the licensing process takes a very long time.

01:54:43.000 It took my brother more than six months to get his.

01:54:46.000 Wow.

01:54:46.000 Or bribes.

01:54:48.000 Geez.

01:54:48.000 Gareth Green says, stability breeds complacency.

01:54:52.000 Forget autocracy and democracy.

01:54:54.000 Anocracy for the win. 0.97

01:54:56.000 What's anocracy?

01:54:57.000 Anarchy?

01:54:58.000 Well, I don't know.

01:54:59.000 It says anocracy.

01:55:00.000 I feel like it's anarchy, but like spelled fun.

01:55:03.000 Martin Edgar says, California has banned potato guns.

01:55:06.000 Okay.

01:55:07.000 That sounds right.

01:55:08.000 Thomas Bennett says, Alex, you can still officiate my wedding, buddy.

01:55:11.000 From Tridge.

01:55:13.000 Yeah, I am a pastor.

01:55:15.000 I can officially marry a woman.

01:55:17.000 And I did it for him, and he never set up a date.

01:55:20.000 So, it's on you, buddy.

01:55:22.000 Sprig Bandersnatch says, Tim, why did it take so long for you to gun up?

01:55:26.000 You should have done it the day the weirdo showed up at your house at 3am, then came back later.

01:55:30.000 Well, we lived, like, literally next door to the police station, which is why when the dude showed up, the cops were there in, like, less than a minute.

01:55:36.000 And so I didn't think I needed it.

01:55:37.000 The cop told me to buy a gun.

01:55:39.000 He's like, well, here's what he said.

01:55:41.000 If it were me, I'd answer the door with a shotgun.

01:55:43.000 But looking at the laws, I was like, I'd still have to run.

01:55:47.000 So it's like, someone comes to my door, I have to go out the back door and run away. 0.93

01:55:50.000 That's ridiculous. 0.99

01:55:51.000 It's just ridiculous. 0.99

01:55:52.000 I mean, maybe take 10 steps and be like, no, he's much faster than I am. 0.90

01:55:56.000 Sure.

01:55:56.000 But then you go to court and they'll be like, we think you could have.

01:56:00.000 And you're like, but I couldn't.

01:56:01.000 Doesn't matter.

01:56:01.000 We think you could have.

01:56:02.000 Maybe rubber bullets?

01:56:04.000 I think that wasn't allowed either, I'm not sure.

01:56:06.000 That's crazy.

01:56:07.000 Yeah.

01:56:08.000 But anyway, look, ultimately COVID happened, and I was like, oh man, like, we're gonna have to rely on ourselves.

01:56:15.000 It was just like, I didn't think the police would be able to handle mass riots, food riots.

01:56:19.000 And we saw food riots.

01:56:20.000 We saw crazy stuff happening.

01:56:22.000 Not like the worst in the world, and we saw the George Floyd riots.

01:56:24.000 And then when the literal riots happened with George Floyd, I was like, I better go get some guns.

01:56:30.000 But I think I actually was in the process of getting guns well before that.

01:56:32.000 Yeah, you were.

01:56:33.000 Yeah.

01:56:34.000 What shocked me was when police stations started shutting down for COVID and there wasn't a mass.

01:56:40.000 Well, there was a mass.

01:56:41.000 We're going to run out and buy guns.

01:56:43.000 But there's more now than there was then.

01:56:45.000 That surprises me.

01:56:48.000 AGcast says, Pew is telling you guys the hardcore mode.

01:56:52.000 We're American and can use gun parts like a Glock or RP9 barrels for the latter being $10.

01:56:59.000 I have no engineering background and built an FGC9.

01:57:01.000 It's like PC building.

01:57:02.000 Cool.

01:57:03.000 So I could just order those parts and then do it?

01:57:04.000 Yeah, we covered a little bit ago, there are mods for the FGC9 that let you use Glock barrels,

01:57:10.000 and you can, with a little bit of skill, a little bit of practice, you can mod it yourself to use a

01:57:14.000 different barrel that you happen to have lying around. So, you know, the options are there if

01:57:20.000 you want to use them. The FGC9 specifically was built by a guy, well it was a derivation of another

01:57:28.000 The FGC9 was done by a guy in the UK to specifically be, you know, something he would be able to build in the UK and, you know, by extension through most of the rest of the world.

01:57:40.000 Yeah, it'd be fun to try and put one of those things together.

01:57:42.000 Yeah, hard mode, absolutely, but...

01:57:46.000 Russell Brown says you can also find ones with different attachments, like a CNC laser etcher 3D printer.

01:57:52.000 Interesting.

01:57:53.000 Steven Chambers says, Tim, please talk about video games more for fun.

01:57:57.000 We 90s kids need to stick together.

01:57:58.000 You could cover game stories that wouldn't be allowed today, etc.

01:58:02.000 I mean, maybe on the website as we expand.

01:58:04.000 That's the plan.

01:58:05.000 We're going to have a bunch of different kinds of content.

01:58:06.000 There's going to be other websites that start emerging from this.

01:58:09.000 The goal with TimCast.com isn't just to be this podcast, but to actually expand and do more different sites and things like that, which you will see soon.

01:58:17.000 And in the meantime, Red Dead Redemption 2 online is $5 on Steam till February.

01:58:22.000 Get it!

01:58:23.000 Or we could all play a video game as a podcast.

01:58:27.000 We could all play The Last of Us.

01:58:29.000 Oh yeah.

01:58:29.000 And that'd be the podcast.

01:58:30.000 That'd be awesome.

01:58:30.000 There you go. Gemcast says full auto is good when you're outnumbered alone in close quarters

01:58:35.000 That's why government agencies don't like it and wants to know who had them even the odds

01:58:39.000 interesting J Mac and cheese Macintosh as Tim love your work

01:58:45.000 Have you checked out the battle between Reddit and Wall Street over GameStop stock?

01:58:49.000 Could be the shot heard around the world in the Robin Hood investor revolution.

01:58:53.000 I've been watching it.

01:58:54.000 I don't know enough about it other than basically some short sellers were trying to like short GameStop.

01:59:01.000 So then Reddit was like, we're just gonna buy it.

01:59:03.000 And then it screwed over hedge funds.

01:59:05.000 I don't know the full story. Otherwise we would have gone over it.

01:59:07.000 So like a short seller is when someone bets on...

01:59:09.000 Stocks failing.

01:59:09.000 Gambling on that the stock's going to fail.

01:59:11.000 And people saw all these big corporations gambling that the stock was going to fail.

01:59:15.000 So they all invested in it, raise the stock and cause these corporations to lose money.

01:59:19.000 That's insane. It's awesome.

01:59:21.000 GameStop, I...

01:59:22.000 But it doesn't mean that GameStop's stock is valuable.

01:59:25.000 They're just using it to screw people over, it looks like.

01:59:27.000 But some people are saying that if GameStop switches to an online retailer, they'll own the market.

01:59:32.000 They should do that.

01:59:33.000 And they're slow, and they're missing the opportunity.

01:59:35.000 They're way behind Steam and Origin and Stadia, which is Microsoft.

01:59:39.000 Yep.

01:59:39.000 But they could.

01:59:40.000 They could still do it.

01:59:41.000 They tried shifting.

01:59:42.000 So GameStop tried shifting into a more, like, geek culture thing with, like, geek... What's the store called?

01:59:48.000 Geek something.

01:59:49.000 I don't know.

01:59:49.000 Whatever.

01:59:50.000 But, uh, I think what they should have done is they should have opened up gaming tables.

01:59:55.000 Like, like brick and mortar gaming tables?

01:59:57.000 Board games and card games.

01:59:59.000 And they already sell a lot of that stuff.

02:00:01.000 I feel so bad with COVID.

02:00:02.000 It's just decimated that industry.

02:00:04.000 Definitely.

02:00:06.000 Gareth Green says, Tim, the law of scarcity is absolute.

02:00:09.000 Even if we had replicators, there would be a finite number of replicators, not to mention resources necessary to manufacture them.

02:00:15.000 Replicators would make replicators.

02:00:17.000 And the resource could be light.

02:00:18.000 Photons can be condensed into electrons, which can be Yeah, in Star Trek, I believe it's the nacelles collect hydrogen and then use that for their replicators.

02:00:28.000 And then replicators can replicate replicator parts to assemble a new replicator.

02:00:32.000 You can actually make light out of the vacuum and then you can turn light into matter.

02:00:37.000 I guess the general idea is that you do need the matter, and they would collect hydrogen in massive amounts, and then use that as the base.

02:00:45.000 I was posting about how they're actually creating light out of the vacuum of space, and then they're turning the light into the matter.

02:00:51.000 So, and then you can condense the electrons into hydrogen.

02:00:54.000 Check this out Ian, you'll like this one.

02:00:56.000 Bam says, have you started trying to develop homemade ammo casings?

02:00:59.000 Apparently shot shells are made of HDPE or LDPE plastic.

02:01:03.000 Full plastic shot shells were experimented on during the 60s and 70s by Winchester.

02:01:08.000 That sounds awesome.

02:01:09.000 Full plastic.

02:01:10.000 Yeah, it's been worked on.

02:01:12.000 There's a guy who is actually 3D printing the 12 gauge, I talked about it.

02:01:20.000 Uh, and I completely forgot.

02:01:22.000 Shotgun.

02:01:22.000 Plastic shells.

02:01:23.000 Yeah, I've spaced on his username, but it's Deliberator12kproject.

02:01:27.000 It's 12-gauge plastic shotguns.

02:01:29.000 This is interesting.

02:01:30.000 So I saw this video.

02:01:30.000 Aaron Trucker says, a gaming channel called The Spiffing Brit made a video explaining a YouTube algorithm glitch using community polls.

02:01:36.000 He got over 25 million views in two days.

02:01:39.000 It's going to be patched now that it's public, but you could benefit now.

02:01:42.000 I believe The Spiffing Brit is wrong. 0.98

02:01:45.000 I believe he's absolutely wrong.

02:01:47.000 So for those that aren't familiar, what he said was YouTube rolled out the community tab function.

02:01:51.000 They wanted people to use it, so they created a general algorithm that promotes those who post in the community tab.

02:01:56.000 But because no one uses it, you could now make a post, put a bunch of keywords in it, and then YouTube would send it to a ridiculous amount of people.

02:02:04.000 He said that he was able, based on his calculations, to get around 25 million views.

02:02:08.000 Well, first I'll say, I could be wrong about this, but my general understanding is that he got like 150,000 likes.

02:02:14.000 And then said, if on average 4% of people click, you know, click the like button, that should be, you know, what we estimated between 25 or so million or whatever.

02:02:21.000 He said 1 in 40 people, something like that.

02:02:23.000 Anyway.

02:02:24.000 I think he's wrong about the algorithm being a glitch.

02:02:27.000 It's not a glitch.

02:02:28.000 And his discovery of it and exploitation of it is exactly what YouTube's wanted the entire time.

02:02:33.000 And I know this because YouTube's told me this.

02:02:35.000 So, you know, this video comes out and this guy's like, nobody uses it.

02:02:40.000 So if you use it, you'll get a ton of views.

02:02:42.000 And it's like, right.

02:02:44.000 That's what YouTube wants.

02:02:46.000 YouTube wants people to use it and get a benefit from it so that people start using it.

02:02:51.000 Now this video comes out claiming it's an exploit, saying that YouTube's not going to patch this.

02:02:55.000 I don't believe they will.

02:02:57.000 Because the algorithm is designed to work with an equilibrium.

02:03:00.000 If only one person uses it, then the only community post anyone on the site will see is from one person.

02:03:07.000 If only 10% of people use it, then everyone will see only 10% of people who use it.

02:03:12.000 Now because of this video, everyone starts using it, then it's going to balance out and just normalize, and YouTube needs to do nothing.

02:03:19.000 So I've used the community tabs frequently for a lot of things, because it's useful when it is, but not for, you know, enough.

02:03:25.000 Seeing that video just made me go, oh yeah, I should post more on the community tab.

02:03:29.000 Not like, wow, what an exploit!

02:03:31.000 No, I fully get it.

02:03:33.000 YouTube emailed me a long time ago saying, we're going to be prioritizing the community tab, and those that use it more will see a higher watch time, and we'll see, you know, all these benefits.

02:03:42.000 And I was like, cool, right on.

02:03:44.000 That was it.

02:03:45.000 It's not a secret.

02:03:45.000 YouTube's been telling creators to do this.

02:03:47.000 They've been emailing them, telling them to do this.

02:03:49.000 It just so happened that nobody cared and some dude discovered that he can get a ton of views because nobody cared.

02:03:55.000 And then he told everybody, I guess, and now he's going to get a lot of play for it.

02:03:59.000 Good for him.

02:03:59.000 I just think it's what YouTube wants.

02:04:02.000 They're happy it's happening.

02:04:04.000 But you can give it a shot if you want.

02:04:06.000 It will benefit you because nobody uses it, right?

02:04:09.000 I mean, I feel like the more terrifying that they tell you the firearm is, the more money they should give you for it.

02:04:13.000 3D printed gun and how much profit margin is Control-P looking at here?

02:04:17.000 Will he? When they do gun buybacks, is there any like restriction on what you can turn in?

02:04:24.000 I mean, I feel like the more terrifying that they tell you the firearm is, the more money they should give you for it.

02:04:31.000 Yes.

02:04:31.000 So if on average I spend $2 per printed firearm, and you know, I have a lot of R&D,

02:04:40.000 so there's a lot of failed prints that are close enough to being firearms, where I think they're firearms,

02:04:44.000 and these people at the buyback aren't going to know the difference.

02:04:47.000 So...

02:04:48.000 I feel like I'm looking at a margin of like four to five hundred dollars per, and I have a box full.

02:04:54.000 So anyone who comes to this buyback after me isn't going to get anything because I'm just going to take all their money.

02:04:59.000 Oh, there you go.

02:05:00.000 Excellent plan.

02:05:01.000 Bud's next is, have you seen the recent Rage Against the Machine propaganda piece?

02:05:04.000 I know they are left, but did not believe they would go that far.

02:05:07.000 I didn't see it.

02:05:07.000 Has anybody seen that?

02:05:08.000 No.

02:05:08.000 What did they do?

02:05:09.000 I don't know.

02:05:10.000 Ian?

02:05:11.000 Someone messaged me about it.

02:05:12.000 I'll read it really quick.

02:05:13.000 Hank McCormick says, ask your guests about his opinions about Polymer80 and 80% lowers.

02:05:18.000 I think we did.

02:05:19.000 Yeah, we talked about with the BiBuild shoot kit.

02:05:23.000 I think the ATF is wrong.

02:05:25.000 And I think Polymer80 does good work.

02:05:29.000 Let's see, Placid Saint says, hey Tim, the ammo company Phoenix here in Michigan got cited for its employees not wearing masks, and now they're no longer selling distributing ammo to law enforcement or their departments.

02:05:38.000 Wow, that's funny.

02:05:39.000 Spicy.

02:05:40.000 There you go.

02:05:41.000 Heart you, Phoenix.

02:05:42.000 There you go.

02:05:44.000 Griffin Games says, all this talk about pew-pews reminds me of a quote about calibers.

02:05:48.000 Quote, 9mm takes care of the body, .45 takes care of the soul.

02:05:51.000 Don't want people coming back as a lich.

02:05:54.000 What's that from?

02:05:56.000 Wait, you said something about liches.

02:05:57.000 What?

02:05:57.000 Like, it sounds like a video game.

02:05:59.000 Yeah, it was a quote about 45s not wanting- because they don't want people to come back as a lich.

02:06:03.000 Sounds like ARFcom lore to me.

02:06:05.000 They're trying to shatter their, uh, their, uh, what is it called?

02:06:10.000 Their phylactery?

02:06:11.000 I don't know.

02:06:12.000 If you destroy the lich's phylactery, they can't respawn.

02:06:15.000 Their life essence is bound to it.

02:06:16.000 So it totally is a video game.

02:06:17.000 Sterling Moore says, Tim, look up trigger activators.

02:06:20.000 They allow essentially full auto fire by means of a hand crank that attaches to the trigger guard and are legal.

02:06:25.000 Similarly, crank Gatling guns are perfectly legal and considered semi-auto.

02:06:30.000 So the crank attachment is not legal in the state of Iowa.

02:06:35.000 Oh.

02:06:36.000 Federally, yeah, you're probably okay.

02:06:38.000 What does it do?

02:06:39.000 Like, it hits the trigger when you crank it?

02:06:41.000 Yeah, it's got a little flap on a little axle, and as you crank it, it just pulls the trigger.

02:06:46.000 So how do you hold it?

02:06:47.000 Do you, like, bend your shoulder?

02:06:49.000 And then you just, like that.

02:06:50.000 Wow.

02:06:51.000 See how, like, you can't regulate it all, everything.

02:06:55.000 Eventually, someone's gonna figure out some weird, ridiculous, circuitous system that uses a loophole, you know? 0.71

02:06:59.000 Someone, like I was saying, it's gonna get ridiculous.

02:07:01.000 Someone will have an accordion, and they're like, I'm just playing music!

02:07:05.000 I love it.

02:07:05.000 This is why prohibition never worked.

02:07:07.000 That's right.

02:07:07.000 Government doesn't work.

02:07:09.000 Government doesn't work! 0.94

02:07:10.000 It's all gone!

02:07:11.000 The Rage Against the Machine, they're doing a documentary on race and racism called Killing in Thy Name.

02:07:16.000 Are you serious?

02:07:16.000 It's a 15 minute mini doc, I haven't seen it though.

02:07:18.000 Have you ever seen that video of the people with the Trump flags and like the Blue Lives Matter flag dancing to Killing in the Name of? 0.63

02:07:24.000 Or is it Killing in the Name? 0.96

02:07:25.000 It's kind of funny because the song is literally about cops killing, you know, non-white people. 0.84

02:07:29.000 And there's a Trump supporter with like a blue, a thin blue line flag. 0.66

02:07:32.000 And they're like singing the song and dancing.

02:07:34.000 And then they were, I think, Tom Morello, he said, when we wrote the song, we never imagined like this would happen, you know?

02:07:42.000 Well, maybe they don't understand conservatives enough.

02:07:46.000 I had many interesting conversations with Tom Morello, and he always seemed like someone who didn't like the left and the right, but I guess that's changing now.

02:07:54.000 Money talks, BS walks.

02:07:57.000 Tiger says, There are over 100 million AK-47s on Earth.

02:08:01.000 If 99% of them magically vanished, it leaves one per day for the next 2,739 years.

02:08:05.000 There will never be a world without guns.

02:08:09.000 They're too easy to make.

02:08:10.000 Google Dara Adam Kel, Pakistan.

02:08:13.000 Interesting.

02:08:15.000 William Samet says, Tim Pool gives horrible advice.

02:08:17.000 He tells people to smash that like button, but I am a gorilla, and now my computer is broken.

02:08:22.000 Give it a little tap.

02:08:23.000 Just a little teeny tap. 0.81

02:08:25.000 Headbutt.

02:08:26.000 Joshua Inzer says, potassium nitrate.

02:08:28.000 Check out Dr. Stone.

02:08:29.000 Ah, is that what's in the bat poop?

02:08:31.000 There you go.

02:08:33.000 Gunny Arlequin.

02:08:35.000 Are we talking about metal printing for cases, or one-use plastic?

02:08:39.000 I'm guessing the 55,000 PSI of a 556 would not agree with plastic.

02:08:45.000 Yeah, probably.

02:08:48.000 Single use plastics for a lot of like lower pressure, black powder stuff, 12 gauge stuff, shotguns can probably get away with it.

02:08:55.000 For rifles, we're going to need some sort of casting to get involved in if we're going to use the FDM space.

02:09:02.000 Alright.

02:09:02.000 AbrasiveFPV says, I received my Type 07 FFL a few weeks ago.

02:09:06.000 Currently tooling up to start selling extremely affordable 3D printed guns.

02:09:10.000 CtrlPew and Ivan have been an inspiration for me.

02:09:13.000 The mission is to legally arm as many people as possible for as little as possible.

02:09:17.000 Interesting, a store that sells 3D printed guns.

02:09:19.000 They'd be really cheap, wouldn't they?

02:09:21.000 I would imagine, until you get insurance involved.

02:09:24.000 It's like I was saying, like Kodak disposable cameras, you know?

02:09:28.000 You don't need a camera, you just go and you buy the disposable one, it's got the film, you can't reload it, you bring it in, they break it open, get the film out, that's it.

02:09:34.000 You buy the 3D printed gun, and once the magazine's in, it's got 20 rounds that can't be reloaded, like a Kodak disposable camera.

02:09:42.000 I wonder if you could brace plastic bullets like with metal so like instead of printing the whole case out of metal you print it out of plastic and then you cap it with a little bit of metal so that when it the pressure when it hits pressure it doesn't shatter like if the metal could somehow somehow brace so you don't have to you just say I don't know So the Liberator is pure plastic with a nail, right?

02:10:04.000 Yes.

02:10:05.000 So that plastic can withstand the pressure of the 9mm, obviously, for a certain amount of rounds.

02:10:11.000 So the Liberator is using either a .38 ACP or .32, which are pretty low-power pistol cartridges, and the barrel is very thick.

02:10:21.000 Could you do .22?

02:10:22.000 I know it's rimfire, but would you be able to do it?

02:10:24.000 I have seen it done.

02:10:25.000 I don't know the longevity of that.

02:10:28.000 Yeah.

02:10:28.000 So I'd imagine it's much weaker.

02:10:30.000 It's not.

02:10:31.000 So it deals with chamber pressures.

02:10:33.000 That initial shock is what creates the fracture and then destroys the barrel.

02:10:38.000 Interesting.

02:10:38.000 So it's a little higher than the others.

02:10:41.000 Oh, OK.

02:10:42.000 So it's worse.

02:10:43.000 Yeah.

02:10:43.000 Oh, wow.

02:10:44.000 Well, the more you learn, you know.

02:10:46.000 There you go.

02:10:46.000 All right.

02:10:47.000 Let's grab a couple more of these.

02:10:49.000 Kami Sama says flamethrowers are not legally weapons in Michigan.

02:10:52.000 Long live the murder cube.

02:10:54.000 They're illegal almost everywhere except for two states.

02:10:57.000 That's irritating.

02:10:59.000 Jose Gonzalez says Tulsi Gabbard was on Tucker Carlson an hour ago and she'd definitely be an awesome Republican candidate. 0.99

02:11:05.000 Isn't that funny? Yeah. Yeah, she really great. She really she released a very powerful video today comparing John

02:11:12.000 Brennan to using an atom shift to try to

02:11:15.000 Institute KGB tactics here in the United States. She said there are a land state

02:11:19.000 She said they're a bigger threat and more dangerous than those who stormed the capital

02:11:22.000 She said the John Brennan's and the Adam shifts who want to institute a KGB police state in this country

02:11:27.000 Just start a locals account Oh, did she?

02:11:32.000 That's Dave Rubin's social network.

02:11:33.000 There you go.

02:11:34.000 She's going social.

02:11:35.000 Very cool.

02:11:37.000 Janet Partridge says, Tim, just wanted to thank you.

02:11:39.000 I used to paint realism paintings and oils.

02:11:41.000 I haven't done a painting in five years.

02:11:42.000 Thanks, Jim, getting back into it.

02:11:44.000 I just wanted you to know your messages do get through.

02:11:45.000 Appreciate it.

02:11:46.000 That's awesome.

02:11:47.000 Well, if you haven't already, go to TimCast.com and become a member, because we will have bonus segments.

02:11:52.000 More bonus segments!

02:11:53.000 And, uh, next week, we're going on a special Top Secret mission, which we will film much of, and create a special members-only video, which may involve something that s-s-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r Did that work?

02:12:12.000 No.

02:12:12.000 You confused a whole bunch of people.

02:12:14.000 You sound like QAnon.

02:12:15.000 Okay, let me try again.

02:12:20.000 It rhymes with Schmifty Malibur.

02:12:23.000 Okay, there you go.

02:12:24.000 That worked, right?

02:12:25.000 Yeah.

02:12:26.000 We're gonna make a video, hopefully.

02:12:28.000 And we're going out on a special mission, and that may be the plan.

02:12:32.000 So I'm hoping that's how it works out, but it'll be for members only.

02:12:35.000 And we will be back, of course, live tomorrow night.

02:12:39.000 You can follow me on Twitter, Instagram, Parler at... I'm sorry, not Parler.

02:12:42.000 Wow, why did I say Parler?

02:12:43.000 Parler's gone.

02:12:44.000 Parler will be back!

02:12:45.000 Yes.

02:13:56.000 Theguide.controlpew, so C-T-R-L-P-E-W.com.

02:14:00.000 Got it.

02:14:01.000 Hey, I want to give a special thanks to Tim Pool for purchasing me this graphene for Christmas.

02:14:06.000 This is pure graphene.

02:14:08.000 I knew it was the perfect gift.

02:14:09.000 Yeah, it really is.

02:14:10.000 And I'm going to be spinning this in a moment, but Alex, I'll show this to you in a bit.

02:14:13.000 Because when you were talking about making black powder, this stuff is black powder.

02:14:16.000 So I wonder, and it's pure carbon.

02:14:18.000 So I wonder if this will somehow be a future ammo.

02:14:21.000 I just want to give a shout out to Graphene.

02:14:23.000 Spin it for you.

02:14:24.000 And you can follow me at Ian Crossland.

02:14:27.000 I'm going to be, I believe we're going to be gaming later tonight on twitch.tv slash Ian Crossland.

02:14:32.000 So come follow me there.

02:14:33.000 Follow me on Twitter and I'll shout you out on Twitter when I'm about to go live.

02:14:36.000 Super cool.

02:14:37.000 And then me in the corner, I looked up inocracy since somebody mentioned it in the super chat.

02:14:41.000 And apparently it is really a thing.

02:14:42.000 It's a form of government that is loosely defined as part democratic and part dictatorship, or as a regime that mixes democracy with autocratic features.

02:14:50.000 So that's kind of interesting.

02:14:51.000 Interesting.

02:14:51.000 Today I learned.

02:14:53.000 Okay, so I finally figured out my socials.

02:14:55.000 So on Instagram and Gab, I am at Real Sour Patch Lids.

02:14:58.000 And on Twitter and Mines, I am just Sour Patch Lids.

02:15:01.000 So you can follow me at any of those places.

02:15:04.000 And of course, we'll be back live, like I mentioned.

02:15:06.000 And you can check out my other YouTube channels.

02:15:07.000 YouTube.com slash TimCast.

02:15:09.000 YouTube.com slash TimCastNews.

02:15:11.000 The goal of what we're doing with TimCast.com is going to be more than just this show.

02:15:15.000 It's going to be, eventually, more personalities.

02:15:18.000 It's going to be a bigger brand.

02:15:19.000 It's going to be a bunch of stuff.

02:15:21.000 And you'll see.

02:15:21.000 Don't worry.

02:15:22.000 Don't worry.

02:15:22.000 It's coming.

02:15:23.000 And there's a lot I can't necessarily talk about now, but we're going to take care of everybody and make sure everybody is
