“We don’t need weapons of war on our streets.”
“We need to ban assault rifles.”
“We need universal background checks.”
“America’s gun culture is killing our children.”
As part of my reporting on the subject of guns in America, I’ve interviewed folks who voiced these above narratives – people who believe that more gun regulations are necessary to combat the violence in our streets, and that we need to legislate a nationwide ban on assault rifles.
I’ve also talked with folks who believe that “it’s the person behind the weapon, not the weapon itself” that’s the problem. And that banning assault rifles is analogous to outlawing a Corvette to combat drunk driving.
And both have a point.
In today’s episode, I sat down with two gun enthusiasts who shared their expertise on the subject of firearms legislation and why attempting to ban assault rifles is not in the best interest of our country. And after hearing them out, I now believe that we’re closer to a remedy than our current cultural and political divide would have us believe.
