    Way back in 2008, we decided to join this place that let you post video files on their website, and you could share those video files with other people, and they can watch and listen to them from their computer, with just an internet browser!

    That was a new thing, and over time the service became really useful and the place even became an important platform for discussion and networking

    Our Gun Community seem to prosper for many years until 2013 when the entire Gun Community would be challenged to defend our rights that are defended by the Second Amendment

    As the 'big' YouTube channels grew in 2014 and money began to influence who decided to pick up a camera and then cash would decide what cameras would be pointed at... things started to change

    by 2016 YouTube proved it would not be a great platform going forward

    Received the Silver Play button for hosting 100,000 subscribers

    Actions from YT against firearm subjects and channels focused on gun topics

    Then later YT decisions to pull down features of their software have made YouTube less and less useful or attractive

    Now YouTube is just big .. and that is what it is
    It has a few good tools, but few people use those anymore

    The next platforms will undoubtedly learn from the mistakes made by the YouTube company and the situations created by their policies and their technology

    We will be on those next platforms
    Talking about rights protected by our 2nd Amendment

    Thank you for participating with our projects for 12 years on the You Tube platform
