![[Rebel Civics] Repeal the 2nd Amendment?](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/w4gFOk2s4_4/mqdefault.jpg "[Rebel Civics] Repeal the 2nd Amendment?
Keith talks about the May 2022 mass school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, which immediately triggered demands for more gun control and a repeal of the 2nd Amendment. He discusses why restrictions on the inherent right to keep and bear arms is immoral, unconstitutional, and foolish. He also provides a definition of assault rifle for use by the gun-grabber politicians, who have always been unable to define the product they demand making illegal.

Carter begins by summarizing the recent hit piece from Media Matters on Matt Walsh, and then he uses the article to demonstrate some common methods employed by dishonest attack dogs in the media. Next, he explains why the Jones Act which has been a barrier to aid reaching Puerto Rico in the wake of hurricane devastation is a bad idea, and why both protectionism and crisis-driven price controls and rationing are counterproductive.

![[Dangerous Thoughts] Why an Armed Citizenry Is Crucial, and How Propaganda Killed Socrates](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/y-G9GMbV_LM/mqdefault.jpg "[Dangerous Thoughts] Why an Armed Citizenry Is Crucial, and How Propaganda Killed Socrates
Carter begins with a story of a Delaware man who opened his door to find warrantless ATF agents asking to see his perfectly legal firearms. Its for your own safety, comrade!
He then provides both a moral and practical defense of Elisjsha Dicken, the 22-year-old armed citizen hero who stopped a mass shooting at Greenwood Park mall in Indiana. He discusses the importance of an armed citizenry, and how the gun tyrants often use statistics to obfuscate the obvious rather than to clarify the complex. He ends with a breaking news story regarding the murder of a famous philosopher from Athens. Carter argues that Socrates, who was killed over 2,400 years ago, was the victim of ancient Greeces version of The Daily Show, hosted by Trevor Aristophenes Noah.

Dr. Hicks is a Professor of Philosophy at Rockford University, Illinois. Hes also the Executive Director of the Center for Ethics and Entrepreneurship and Senior Scholar at The Atlas Society. Hes the author of six books, including his forthcoming book Eight Philosophies of Education and Explaining Postmodernism: Skepticism and Socialism from Rousseau to Foucault.

Keith interviews Louis Marinelli on a recently launched movement named “CalExit 3.0”, proposing to split California into two along ideological lines by holding citizen referendums at the county level. The politically left majority counties would leave these united states, forming an independent sovereign country operating under progressive ideologies with a 3:1 starting majority of left-leaning voters. The rest of the counties would remain in the US as the state of California, becoming a swing state with an even mix of politically left, right, and independent voters.
