GTR Reloaded|America, Guns, and Freedom; Media Silent on Crime Rate Drop: Gun Talk Radio |10.27.19 B

Published on October 28, 2019
Duration: 44:24

This video features Dr. Miguel Faria discussing his book 'America, Guns and Freedom,' which critiques the gun control agenda within the medical and public health establishments. Dr. Faria argues that much of the research presented as scientific is actually biased propaganda, lacking scientific rigor and often preordained to support gun control conclusions. He highlights historical examples, such as Cuba, to illustrate the dangers of firearm registration and confiscation, and discusses the financial and ideological motivations behind organized medicine's push for gun control.

Quick Summary

Dr. Miguel Faria argues that much gun violence research from institutions like the CDC is biased propaganda, not science. He highlights the Dickey Amendment's role in defunding outcome-oriented research and warns that firearm registration, as seen in Cuba, facilitates tyranny by identifying gun owners for confiscation. The video also contrasts this with FBI data suggesting 'more guns, less crime' as violent crime rates have fallen despite increased gun ownership.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Dr. Miguel Faria's main argument about gun violence research?

Dr. Miguel Faria argues that much of the research presented as scientific on gun violence is actually biased propaganda, lacking scientific rigor and often preordained to support gun control conclusions. He criticizes institutions like the CDC and public health establishments for this approach.

How did the AMA's stance on gun violence evolve, according to Dr. Faria?

Dr. Faria states that in 1990, the AMA began a gun violence campaign, but he found that only pro-gun control articles were published. He characterized this as a one-sided, unscientific approach that he refused to comply with, leading to his resignation from the Journal of Medical Association of Georgia.

What is the significance of the Dickey Amendment?

The Dickey Amendment, passed by Congress, defunded 'propaganda' from the CDC related to gun control. It allowed funding for legitimate research but prohibited outcome-oriented research with preconceived notions aimed at pushing gun control policies.

Why does Dr. Faria believe firearm registration is dangerous?

Drawing from his experience in Cuba, Dr. Faria believes firearm registration is dangerous because it creates lists of gun owners that can be used by authoritarian regimes to confiscate firearms and suppress any potential revolution or dissent, thereby maintaining control.

What is the 'more guns, less crime' argument presented in the video?

The video presents FBI data showing a decline in violent crime and homicides, even as gun sales and concealed carry permits have increased. This trend supports the 'more guns, less crime' theory, contradicting the narrative that more guns inherently lead to more violence.
