Tell National Geographic: Cancel Show Featuring Violent Insurrectionist [View all]

Why is National Geographic trying to make a star out of a violent pro-gun extremist? In January 2013, James Yeager, the CEO of a firearms training company, made national headlines when he posted a video to YouTube in which he threatened to start killing people if the White House issued executive orders to reduce gun violence in the United States. In the video, Yeager warned:
Vice President [Joe] Biden is asking the president to bypass Congress and use executive privilege, executive order to ban assault rifles and to impose stricter gun control. Fuck that. Im telling you that if that happens, its going to spark a civil war, and Ill be glad to fire the first shot. Im not putting up with it. You shouldnt put up with it. And I need all you patriots to start thinking about what youre going to do, load your damn mags, make sure your rifles clean, pack a backpack with some food in it and get ready to fight. Im not fucking putting up with this. Im not letting my country be ruled by a dictator. Im not letting anybody take my guns! If it goes one inch further, Im gonna start killing people.
Now, Yeager is set to star in the third season of National Geographics Doomsday Preppers, where he will have a national platform to spread his insurrectionist ideology. As a leading nonprofit scientific and educational institution, the National Geographic Society should have nothing to do with individuals who actively threaten to wage war against government officials and other fellow Americans.
