Youtube has decided to ban gun videos. While originally it was a clarification to things such as bump stocks and how to make silencers, apparently lots of legitimate gun reviews have been disappearing. When we rely on technology to come out of the liberal bastion of Northern California I guess we can expect this. They are cutting off those who cling to God and Guns.

Well crap

I wonder if they will ban all the gansta rap videos that shows guns?

I can see where this "might" actually help the pro-second amendment community. It would be interesting to see what is meant by "gun videos". Is it a video that shows any kind of gun at all (action movie trailers, police videos, etc). Or is it some of the more repulsive videos where hunters are emptying full magazines on squirrels, rabbits and other animals. Personally, I don't find the latter entertaining.

It will be interesting to see where this goes. I'll "panic" when I see how this plays out.

sounds like an opportunity for someone with the skills and know how. I'm more of an idea guy........

Pee on gun videos, its more important I’m able to watch radical islamic training and beheading videos.

Press on!

whew... Hickok45 still there

I read they weren't so much "banning" them as demonetizing their channels. Which still sucks.

Sucks for sure

You know for anyone thinking this is not a problem, I always think of the famous holocaust speech

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

I am always careful to construct my arguments for non gun people that you don't have to like guns to not see this as bad. There are lots of things I don't like, but I don't want them censored or banned or not able to be shipped. If I don't like something I don't buy, I don't watch it etc. I don't need some Silicon Valley elite dictating morality or interests to me. Next to be banned will be preparing meat dishes on cooking channels or modifying Diesel trucks.

^Well put. Seems like a slippery slope for sure.

My Chanel with all my videos is gone!
F’n *******s!

Their sandbox. Their rules. The wrong side is picking up too much momentum. Every company now wants to be associated with disarming America.
Delta won't offer discounts to NRA members, Kroeger removing gun mags from their shelves. D I C K S not selling semi autos.
Kids getting attacked in school because of pro gun stances. I know its up north, but come on.

More will come down the pipeline.

They deleted several air rifle review channels and even a couple company channels such as Airguns of Arizona and PyramydAir (the 2 largest air gun dealers in the U.S.). I think they may be back on after some debating and pleas from well known air gun "authorities".
