The Leslie Marshall Show - 4/25/23 - Fred Guttenberg Debunks Myths that Fuel Gun Violence


Listen Later

Leslie begins today's show with her 'Ripped from the Headlines' news segment.
Here are the stories that she commented on:
1. AXIOS: "Biden's never-Trump campaign for '24"
2. AXIOS: "White House threatens to veto GOP debt ceiling bill"
3. AXIOS: "What to know as the civil trial over E. Jean Carroll's rape allegation against Trump starts"
4. CNN: "Company with ties to GOP megadonor and longtime friend of Justice Thomas had business before Supreme Court"
For the remainder of the show, Leslie is joined by Gun Reform Advocate, and Author, Fred Guttenberg.
Fred has dedicated his life to saving lives fighting for gun safety in America. He began his public life after the murder of his beautiful 14 year old daughter Jaime in the Parkland school shooting on Feb 14th of 2018. Fred’s mission ultimately led him to write his first book, "Find the Helpers."
And now, Fred and International gun policy consultant Thomas Gabor team up in a brand new book, titled, "American Carnage: Shattering the Myths That Fuel Gun Violence." The book will dismantle some of the most common myths about guns and gun violence. Its release date is May 2nd.
Here is just a sample of the myths and slogans exposed as false in 'American Carnage':
- Gun owners frequently use firearms to fend off attackers
- An armed society is a safer society
- Guns don’t kill people, people kill people
You can purchase both of Fred's books, and find out more information about what events he's participating in, at FredGuttenberg.com. His Twitter handle is @Fred_Guttenberg.
