Our guest today is Johanna Rosaly. Johanna, otherwise known as Latina Locked N Loaded, was inspired into action by the 2019 2nd Amendment Rally held in Washington, D.C. 
She and her husband Rolando “The Puerto Rican Pistolero” live in FL near Parkland. After the murders at the local high school, Jo discovered the importance of speaking up to protect our Constitutional Protections. 
And realizing that Latino-American media often aligned her culture with the anti-gun sentiment, she focuses on de-stigmatizing gun ownership in both the female and Hispanic communities. 
1) How did you get into guns and into advocacy for the 2nd amendment?
2) What do you think of the current state of the fight against the 2nd amendment?
3) Why are Latinos the focus of your advocacy?
4) What do you think the current gun community can do to help expand and welcome new gun owners, particularly women and minorities?
