SiftDebate: What are the societal benefits to having guns? has been added as a related post - related requested by dag.

wow that was terrable he looked like a raving lunatic im embrassed that i ever watched anything by Alex Jones.

Just watched Part -2, wow he's crackers.

Wow hes nuts....maybe he needs some Prozac?

This guy passed a background check. How many more fruit loops out there like him? Sadly, too many to count ... we're screwed.

Why does he trust the FBI statistics? Seems at odds with everything else he says.

Alex Jones is nuts. So what else is new?. Sure, I disagree with the nutcase as much as the next guy, but I gotta say, he sure gets things said. Crazy, delusional things, sure, but he does get his message out.

Which I think should be the message to take home from this: in order to get your message out on tv, you need to be insane, like Alex Jones. If you are soft spoken and/or intelligent and polite or just, you know, normal the "journalists" will just talk all over you with their own babble, or bible. Case in point: Richard Dawkins on O'Reilly: http://videosift.com/video/TYT-Richard-Dawkins-on-OReillys-Show
I mean here is a professor of biology, one of the worlds finest public educators and science promoters, making the most eloquent poi.. SHUT UP, TIDE GOES IN, TIDE GOES OUT. Next.

Why is anyone listening to Alex Jones talk about anything, let alone put him on CNN?

This guy seriously believes that all the recent rampages are somehow staged "False Flag" attacks perpetrated by the Anti-Gun Establishment. Aurora, Gabby Giffords, Newtown. He'd have you believe that the government is programming disaffected teens to trigger into psychotic murderers like the Manchurian Candidate.

Seriously, what the fuck? Put him back on the street-corner with his card-board box and "The End is Nigh" sandwich board.

Well that makes two of them.

Nice try Alex Jones.

Sooooo what was his point again? I kinda got lost with the blah blah blah. All I heard was there was 11 thousand gun murders in the US, 35 in the UK, YELL YELL YELL 2nd Amendment is God, yadda yadda yadda. Did I miss anything?

Couldn't watch it. Too loud and crazy.

"If you yell it loud enough for long enough. People will start to believe it."

I honestly wish to god that statement was not true. But the longer I live the more I see it. Over and over and over again.

Reminds me a bit of an unfunny Sam Kinnison.

That guy should not be allowed near guns at all.

I'm sure the Jones Family farm is fortified to the nines with all manner of single shot, semi and fully automatic weapons.

I'm also quite sure a drone attack, an APC with half a dozen soldiers or a tank would make short work of his fairy-tale brand of home security if the US government really turned on its own people.

Really Alex Jones? What an exhausting waste of resources. He's clearly an impassioned activist. He could lobby for conservative values like fiscal responsibility and governmental accountability but he's really just telling the world how angry and violent many gun-toting Americans are.

Glenn Beck recently denounced Alex Jones as being a deranged psycho, & when Beck is calling you a madman & being identified as the voice of reason you know you're in trouble.

Once again, the gun nutter community shoots itself in the foot.* Please go on more TV shows, Alex.

Btw, Alex, I have copyright on "lemmings". Please stop using it.

You can see the unfunny Sam Kinnison (aka Alex Jones) doing stand up, as he opened for Doug Stanhope; in what's now known as:

Ha ha ha! Fuckin' nut job. 4:18 is a classic.

This video shows the difference between american and english political TV. Piers Morgan is a fuckin' tool, we were glad to get rid of him in the UK, but he's doing things the english way, which is a debate. A proper debate where each person gets to say their point and then lets the other person answer the point. American TV has always pissed me off because of the lack of debate. It's all down to who shouts loudest and it's a crock of shit.

Homicide Rates -

Switzerland 0.7
United States 4.8
United Kingdom 1.2

I see absolutely no correlation between gun ownership and homicide rate, although I've frequently heard reference to such a notion.

They should have a good ol fashioned duel over this.

Why is this video 7 minutes and 21 seconds long, Alex Jones said he was finished at 2:54. The rest of the video is him repeating himself.

Though realistically, it always bugged me when people get into debates and don't know what "I'm finished" actually means.

The UK has a higher overall violent crime rate, but a violent crime in the UK is far less likely to kill you. I'd be surprised if the prevalence of guns in the US has nothing to do with things.

Switzerland is a very special case when it comes to gun ownership and gun crime. Switzerland has no standing army. Instead it has a people's militia. Almost every man between the ages of 20 and 30 in the country is conscripted into the militia and receives military weapon training. They have to keep the guns at home as part of the militia.

This means they have a huge percentage of the population who are properly trained to handle a gun. However, they have a lower gun ownership percentage than the US. So, in the US you have a lot more people who own guns, but a lower percentage of these people have the proper training for the weapons. Is it any wonder that they kill more people in the US with the guns?

Also, think about this. Loads of people in switzerland are conscripted into the militia, learn how to handle a gun properly, then get too old to be in the militia and leave, hand back the weapon and go home. A large percentage of these people don't go out and buy a replacement gun for their home.

This tells me there's something else going on here. It isn't the guns keeping them safe, it seems it's deeper than that.

Differences in gun culture go way, way deeper than the figures suggest. In fact, the figures seem to show that there's very little correlation between the rate of gun ownership in a country and the number of homicides with a gun in the country.

Which means it's a cultural thing. So, just saying more guns or less guns will keep us safe means nothing. It's country specific, culture specific.

Wow, it's the insane attacking the inane....

haha! the number of deaths in UK and USA are just a little factoid?

tell that to their loved ones, motherfucker!

Sorry, you unhinged piece of shit, the 2nd Amendment is not sacrosanct, neither is any amendment or anything in the Constitution. That's why they're called amendments.

The more you know.

For those on the sift who are for unrestricted access to guns: At the very least I hope you can acknowledge that Alex Jones made you guys look very...very irrational and deranged. It wasn't exactly a shining moment for your side I hope you can admit.

It cracks me up that Piers didn't have to say anything, he let Jones hang himself with his own rope.

Couldn't give a flying F about Americans killing each other - but please keep Piers Morgan. We don't want him back.
