2nd Amendment Right to have guns means nothing to some
You can also find previous episodes on YouTube here.
Today we will speak about guns, safety, open carry, and privilege. There is so much happening in this country around guns and the damage it is effecting not only physically but emotionally. It is ripping at the fabric of our democracy. While many misinterpret the 2nd Amendment, lives are lost. Very few are willing to confront the NRA and what it really represents, a bully backed by armed and many that are misled with plausible misinformation.
