Making Gun Safety Viable in America - Episode 61
Robert and Dave continue to wrestle with the divisive issue of gun safety. This episode is part 4 of the series in search of the middle ground to make gun safety a viable possibility in our country. How can we avoid stereotypes to reduce the heat and the hate? As Robert focuses on creating a greater chance for peace, the extremes of both parties must be excluded. The fringe ends generally create more conflict than resolution. Former President Trump is in a completely different category. He is a danger to democracy. Nor does he have respect for the truth or voting rights. Trump fosters violence and gun danger.
Hopefully, soon, a wave of centrist Republicans will turn the tide toward a party more in line with Justice Berger and see the sanity in the original intent of The Second Amendment. Gun owners have good intentions to protect their families. This mentality could be harnessed to protect and support the police, The National Guard, and create an extra protection layer for our country. As you're listening, do you find yourself dismissing this out of hand? No one yet knows that answer but the podcast conveys that it is a worthy debate that needs to happen to imagine and create a country we can all feel safe in.
Join us for this spirited, frank, and honest conversation where Robert and Dave have a rare disagreement. How many people should be included in becoming gun-carrying protectors? Could it be 5,000 or 10,000, more, or many less that qualify for this peace corps? What is a healthy fear of creating a supportive force of trained and screened protectors versus danger and endless controversy? It is healthy to have fear and trust. It is healthy to be cautious. It is not healthy to be paranoid. It is not healthy to be hateful. The aim is the middle way. The conversation deals with both the ability to see into people's intentions and how to become safer with sensible gun control. All humans are vulnerable to seeing the extremes and we all would do well to see things in more relative terms.
