It's an hour long "Lecture by Jeff Cooper given to the 15th Annual Meeting of the Doctors for Disaster Preparedness held in San Diego, California." It's worth watching and so valuable I'm posting it here in the Training Forum.

Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles." —Jeff Cooper, The Art of the Rifle God Bless Colonel Jeff Cooper.

Some very good points were made with the Q&A too. It is hard to believe that was said 14 years ago. A lot of that video still applies today. Indeed, a troubling trend is occurring, one with which we should all be aware of. I very quickly understood what he was getting at. A most excellent find.... Jeremy
