Tom Scott, filling in for Todd, talks with former state senator Len Suzio about Connecticut's early release programs for prisoners. Perhaps the data that's been complied over the last 8 years can shed light on the effectiveness of said programs.

Are problems with the way we do criminal justice part of the issue with gun violence? We talk with Southbury attorney Deborah Stevenson.

Tom Scott joins the conversation on gun control, and discusses the risk of a constitutional convention to eliminate the 2nd Amendment, as called for by Rep. Matt Ritter.

We explore a range of issues relating to the shootings over the weekend, including why the Democrats only talk about gun control. One stat is particularly relevant - there have been 100,000 murders in urban areas over the past 18 years, compared to 1,000 mass shooting killings and domestic terrorism killings over the same period..

Democrats are at it again - working desparately to paint the weekend shootings as a gun problem rather than launch a sincere exploration of the issues that might be contributing to this new challenge of mass shootings. We consider the options.

For Philosophy Friday, Todd relays a question that Connecticut prisoner and regular guest Michael Liebowitz posed - Is taxation theft?
