YouTube has betrayed us.

Post by akuser47 »

As of April they are removing and blocking gun related videos. Those videos are important to do it yourself people like me. I don't know all details so you can dig a bit deeper if you you care to. Just a heads up. It looks like it may effect reloading videos as well.

Not good, but not surprising.
I was in Cabelas last week while in Lexington.
Bought some magnum shot, box of ammo and some 44 special brass.
Asked for the military discount.
Cashier said Cabelas just changed their policy, no more Military discounts for anything firearm,ammo,reloading related.
I know cabelas was bought out by bass pro shop.
So dont know who made the policy change.

Here's a gun channel video explaining the new Youtube policy.
It will be interesting to see how it's applied.

One again the left resorts to symbolism over substance, but they can pat each other on the back and feel good that they are doing something about THE PROBLEM. Wont but they'll still feel good.

I hear some have moved to youporn while others have started showing up at Patreon.
Hickok45 got yanked a while back for no good reason and eventually restored.
I can seem myself NOT visiting youtube after the ban.

Sounds ridiculous, frankly I'm not surprised though.

I just uploaded three how-to-fix-my-Rossi videos to my account, took them just fine. Now I need to figure out how to link them here.
