Mass Shootings vs. Individual Rights w/ Chris Hoover

Sick of listening to Chris and Jay talk about guns yet? No? Great! Here’s another swing at it. Chris and Jay were going back and forth via text, Jay drug Chris back onto the podcast to try to talk through their differences. Too long won’t listen: Jay thinks the level of societal gun violence should drive gun policies, including removing millions of guns from society. Chris thinks he has an individual right to his guns, irrespective of societal mayhem (or not). If you’d like to call into the show, you can leave a voicemail at +1-402-577-0117.

A: If you barbecue in your back yard on Sunday, you can eat leftovers from your backyard barbecue on Monday. When you talk about your back yard as a place, use two words. If you’re describing a backyard activity or object, use one word.
