Colion Noir recently commented on Minnesota Governor Tim Walz’s appearance on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, where Walz suggested a stark rural-urban divide in attitudes toward gun ownership.

Walz argued that rural gun culture, which emphasizes hunting and sport, differs significantly from urban areas where gun violence, especially in schools, is a major concern. He advocated for measures like red flag laws, extreme risk protection orders, and restrictions on certain firearms to protect children.

Noir countered that the Second Amendment remains unchanged regardless of a person’s location. He argued that this approach to “divide” gun rights according to geography masks an effort to diminish 1A protections by suggesting rural America only needs hunting rifles.

Noir explained that portraying semi-automatic rifles as irrelevant in rural settings allows policymakers to chip away at gun rights without explicit bans, especially targeting modern sporting rifles (ARs).

Noir also highlighted data from the FBI and CDC to underscore that semi-automatic rifles are rarely used in mass shootings compared to handguns and are vital for self-defense.

According to Noir, defensive gun use by law-abiding citizens occurs hundreds of thousands to millions of times annually, often involving semi-automatic rifles, which many Americans rely on for home defense.

Noir accused anti-gun politicians of trying to sway traditional gun owners, sometimes called “fudds,” who favor classic firearms, to support restrictions on modern weapons.

He argued this strategy subtly divides the gun rights community, creating a distinction between “acceptable” hunting firearms and “unnecessary” tactical guns. Noir believes this could lead traditionalists to support limited gun control policies, undermining the Second Amendment.

In closing, Noir urged a “real conversation” about safety without sacrificing constitutional rights, calling on Walz and Stewart to avoid divisive rhetoric.

“At the end of the day, we all want safer communities and schools; no one is arguing against that,” Noir explained. “But we need to have a real conversation that respects constitutional rights and tackles the actual issues like enforcing existing laws, addressing mental health, and improving security measures in our schools.”
