A lot has happened since the last time we took questions on the podcast.
We’re living through a time of great change with guns in America. Sales moved to historic levels in recent years, and millions of people from demographics that have been traditionally less likely to own guns have decided to arm themselves. Mass shootings have shocked the nation and led to the first new federal gun restrictions in generations. At the same time, the Supreme Court has handed down a seminal ruling protecting the individual right to carry firearms in public while articulating a specific new test for deciding gun cases moving forward.
Add the upcoming midterm elections on top of all of that, and you can imagine Reload Members had a lot of questions.
Contributing Writer Jake Fogleman and I did our best to provide some keen insight into the biggest gun stories of the day. We talked about the status of challenges to ‘assault weapon’ bans in the wake of Bruen, the latest with the ATF’s rulemaking, how to properly assess public polling, the status of the NRA, and the fight over gun financing.
We get into all of that and more.
