No Guns (Part II): It’s More A Religion (#93)

Continuing my exploration of media about guns and our current gun culture. Not only has it been on all of our minds lately, but this is a subject I don’t want to let slip away from the public consciousness just yet. I feel like there’s a bit much to say, and not enough people saying it loudly enough.

While I could continue to wax poetic about how I feel strongly about this issue, it stands to reason that I will let the show speak for itself. But I do want to thank everyone who has been contributing (or drawing my attention to) media on this subject, and I’ll continue to include those kinds of submissions on the show. If you do want to participate, please send an e-mail: austinrich@gmail.com.

Let’s hope I don’t have to keep doing these for too much long.

Take care.
