In a current video, Kirk breaks down a wild smash-and-grab try that occurred on July nineteenth in Anaheim, California.
A mob of 18 suspects—sure, eighteen—descended on the jewellery retailer in broad daylight. However as an alternative of scooping up diamonds, they have been met with armed resistance from retailer house owners who weren’t about to let thugs stroll out with their livelihood.
“They begin deploying deadly power as a result of in truth they do have a felony being dedicated inside their enterprise,” Kirk stated.
The end result?
The mob scattered like cockroaches, and nothing was stolen. However right here’s the kicker: California has a 10-round journal restrict. So whereas these criminals rolled deep, the great guys have been legally restricted to what the state thinks is “sufficient.”
“Within the eyes of the state of California… they consider that the house owners of Princess Jewellery… have been actually solely entitled to have 10 rounds to protect their life,” Kirk stated. “That their life is barely value 10 rounds of ammunition.”
This isn’t only a California drawback. Kirk rattled off a listing of states with comparable bans: Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington, and naturally, D.C.
In these states, your proper to defend your self is capped—no matter what number of criminals you’re up in opposition to.
Kirk additionally took a jab at so-called “specialists” like Lucy P. Allen, a paid analyst for gun management teams, who as soon as claimed that self-defense incidents solely require a mean of two.2 rounds.
“Mark my phrases,” Kirk quipped, “in a number of years, it’ll be right down to 1.8.”
He warned that some states are already twisting the “in widespread use” take a look at to justify limits primarily based on averages—which means we might see legal guidelines drop that quantity to 5 rounds… and even fewer.

And that’s the actual level: the variety of attackers isn’t theoretical anymore. On this case, there have been 18.
“Had they efficiently entered the shop… this might have confirmed to be fairly severe, if not somewhat lethal,” he warned.
