As Nick heads into a busy week with the 7th district convention taking place on July 18th, Nick catches up on a few submitted questions from his YouTube channel. 

In episode fifteen of Making the Argument, and the second edition of "The Breakdown," Nick addresses a very popular topic in 2020, privilege. A viral video titled, "Privilege, Class, and Social Inequalities Explained In A $100 race," was created with good intentions. Unfortunatley, it leads viewers to reach the wrong conclusion on what we should do. Nick breaks it down and shares his perspective on how we should view privilege in our day to day lives. 

In this week's episode of Marking the Argument, Nick shares a few personal stories he had from growing up in a law enforcement household, talks about policies we can implement to improve the quality of law enforcement services that communities receive, and the concept of community policing. 

A viral YouTube video called "Wealth Inequality in America" has been viewed over 22 million times since it was released in 2012. In this episode of Making the Argument, Nick breaks it down. 

This week Nick welcomes the Executive Vice President of Gun Owners of America, Erich Pratt, on Making the Argument. 

Having fought for our Second Amendment rights for more than 20 years in Washington, DC, Erich joins the show to discuss how GOA has activated millions of gun owners to take action, vote, contact their representative, and fund many major court cases which have successfully protected our right to keep and bear arms.
