Thank you for saving I, the time to wade though the whole clip, Dr. Lott.
It's nice to see that reality, is not lost on everyone.
Still, though, they do go on to talk about the ramifications of all or many being armed...
"... if we could somehow go back in time and melt them all down, we'd have a Utopia ..."
Does he mean the sort of Utopia that included the Mongol hoards, the Vandals, Huns, Visigoths and Ostrogoths, and other assorted barbarians? Doe he actually think that murder, robbery, rape and other assaults, didn't take place or where significantly less common in times or places without guns? It seems that he's either woefully ignorant or another example of feelings completely overpowering thought.
There is more on past the 16:00 mark on out to the 21:00 mark. The entire discussion occurs in a vacuum in which the 2nd amendment doesn't exist. They are somewhat resigned to concealed carry but not because it is a right. They also want it to be a privilege. Just amazing.
