 I have never watched his stuff on youtube, I accidentally only saw him once on the kent state gun girl's channel "liberty hangout with Kate Bennett"
 I love her channel, but have seen once or twice where i didn't like her style, here and there she will go to far - but in all fairness, she has been relentlessly harassed for mere P.O.V

so anyway, i do not know why he was arrested or investigated, maybe he was inciting a riot or something.

but i do not have time for his channel when awesome stuff like Garand Thumb and The Modern Survivalist have so much good content

anyway, here is the gun girls video about logan and jake, jake being the guy who lost his guns to the feds

I waste way more time watching videos on youtube than I probably should and I never heard of this guy.
After a quick scan of his videos I see I didn't miss much and a bunch of my brain cells are in riot mode right now. He looks and acts like someone who would be entertained by a bug zapper, and have it gold plated, and thinks you want to watch him watching one.

Piker.

Dude Perfect has 52 million subscribers.  They are fun, family friendly, positive people.  I know that Tyler is very pro-2A, but he doesn't put gun stuff on the DP channel.  And they are all Aggies/Texans, which means they automatically are good people.

You better break out the bourbon, because according to Wikipedia he has a net worth of $11.5 million.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jake_Paul

Looked at his youtube channel and I don't see any gun stuff, but I don't want to watch any of it.

I watch enough youtube stuff as it is.  I already have more than I have time to watch to the point I don't take to watch some shows that are on Netflix.

Paul is a first-order Social Media Influtard. What little I've seen of his stuff is straight-up Shock Jock schlock, stuff like embedding himself with a bunch of looters and posting the vid to his YouTube channel. Not surprised he caught the eye of authorities.

Too bad Kate Bennett is hanging out with him. She seems like she has a good head on her shoulders, and I thought she'd be a good spokeswoman for gun rights, but hanging out with this schmuck, she is not doing herself any favors.

I cut her some slack for being young and hot, as the type will often want to hang out with the "bad boys" until they get some life experience behind them, but at the same time, she is a face for gun rights, which means she should be shouldering some extra responsibility, as her choices can affect others.

His brother caught some serious flack for filming in the suicide forest in Japan, including, IIRC, a dead body hanging from a tree.

It could be her just doing a tie-in to bring some of his viewers to her channel.  Hard to say unless we see more info on that part.

check out the video i posted, yes, she finds out about how awful they are / admits she was wrong to go there.
