Summary

Gun control has become one of the most polarized debates in America. I’m not interested in treating it like a tribal loyalty test. In this video, I explain why I won’t be filling out gun-control surveys from advocacy groups, where I actually stand on gun legislation, and why I believe we should spend more time addressing the causes of violence instead of endlessly dividing Americans into camps. I own firearms. I support some gun laws. Some recent laws don’t make much sense to me. But after forty years of this debate, the violence continues while the division gets worse. If we want less violence, we need stronger communities. Vic Meyers for Democracy This is a public episode.
