The Gun Control Elephant in the Room

For the first time in almost 30 years, Congress has done something to try to address gun violence and mass shootings. But our guest today has a wake-up call when it comes to the legislation that passed earlier this summer. Journalist and podcaster Heath Druzin follows the gun rights movement in Idaho and around the country. He says before any meaningful debate or change can occur, we need to face the fact that there are 400 million firearms already in circulation in America. Our obsession with guns has backed us into a corner, but there are some measures conservatives and liberals can agree on (even in Idaho).
