We all need something/someone to demonize when the truth is too painful and complicated to come to terms with.I love this sport/hobby and will remain hopeful regardless... but I’m still admittedly scared.Totally agree. To much giving them everything for nothing. No respect or responsibility. They think they are owed whatever they want and don't have to do anything to get it.Such a sad society that we live in today.

Great Britain tried that a couple hundred years ago and it backfired miserably. It would be better to just require people to acquire a parenting license so that those who wanted to have children were actually capable of handling early development educating of their offspring rather than rely the mirad of electronic nannies. If people were actually required to parent rather than just breed many of the current crop of "bad kids" would actually be productive members of society rather than the many ticking timebombs that go undetected until it is too late to fix them. Much of the bullying and violence would be avoided if the concept of right and wrong were being taught at an early age rather than the current sense of entitlement

It has never gone well, in the USA mothers were sterilized against their will, Germany had the unfortunate time we all know about, and just recently Israel was giving Jewish African immigrants birth control without their knowledge. For a man who wants us to avoid politics, you have just suggested the most repulsive political rhetoric of the last 200 years. To value youtube videos so much that you want to turn control over your very body to the government is unbelievable. I hope that you were simply frustrated and had not actually considered what you were saying.
Yes, I just visited the Talon Tunes sight, the video for the Condor hammer is "unavailable" on YouTube.I guess this is how the Gypsies, Homeless people and Jews felt when Hitler was taking over.Those who fail to learn history ...
Ask yourself why Youtube would shut down Airgun channels and leave Demolition Ranch and Hicok45 along with thousands of other firearms channels up. Why would they restore videos and channels. It not a Youtube conspiracy. Someone is flagging these channels and manipulating Youtube's reporting system. Look at the channels that were affected. Then looks at the hundreds that aren't well known in our community that haven't been touched. I see nothing political about this. I think this is an attack from within.
1) Many Firearms channels WERE having problems as well2) The smaller channels are easy pickings as they do not belong to what are called Multi Channel Networks on YouTube3) It looks like YouTube may have admitted what happened (though this has not helped me at all)From AirtgunWebTV -We have happy faces here at AGW. Hopefully it will stay that way. I received an email from youtube today that essentially apologized for terminating our channel and that after review it was NOT in violation of their community guidelines. What may be happening, as we figured, is that our content may be getting flagged by an army of spammers intent on causing us (and our industry) harm. YouTube's system was not equipped to, or did not understand how to, handle this type of targeted attack. Now I'm extrapolating here as they would never speak so plainly as to the actual cause. But, I'm very cautiously optimistic that we may be seeing things stabilize.
