    I'm shocked YouTube kept that video up...

    It wouldn’t bode well for their legal case if they took it down.

    At first thought you’d think so, but if they do that considering that it does not come close to violating any kinds of norms it would pretty much prove the plaintiffs case.

    There is the forum versus publisher distinction, but I think there’s also just a strong case based on the terms of service. They violated a contract, and should be held accountable for that.
    The Second Amendment ACKNOWLEDGES our right to own and bear arms that are in common use that can be used for lawful purposes. The arms can be restricted ONLY if subject to historical analogue from the founding era or is dangerous (unsafe) AND unusual.

    It's that simple.

    The problem with Google and YouTube and others. Is not that they are a private company, they are the Gateway to information, so all information should be treated the same.

    So these types of business need special restrictions on them.

    The more You Tube places restrictions on content or bans content, the less people will use You Tube. There is only so much You Tube can restrict before it starts to hurt You Tube in the long run. The day that a completely unbiased platform for content is created is long over due.

    Values in general are under attack.

    Yesterday’s bleeding heart Liberal is today’s “Neo Nazi”.
    At some point being called Hitler will seem quaint.

    I don’t care for PragerU but Voltaire said it best “I care not for what you say but shall die for your right to say it”

    Nobody learns. The more you make a concept “evil” or “forbidden” the more it becomes appealing.
    It drives humor away from life. Everyone is in their own little protected species beyond criticism and everything is hate speech.

    I miss the wild west days when people said whatever they wanted and didn’t have self appointed culture police to beat them over the head for radical concepts like freedom of association.

    There are two groups of people now. People who have been radicalized into stamping out “fascism” by using fascist tactics and people pushing back on it.

    I miss the days when you really didn’t have to pick a side and could just live your life without being guilted over someone else’s problems.

    I simply don’t care anymore. If anything my sympathies for plighted people has diminished simply because well.....

    Things are tough all over
