Theme: Freedom Vs Safety: Can We Have Both?
Hour #1 Guest: Alexander Roubian – New Jersey Second Amendment Society’s New President
We have examples of cities and states, like NJ, where gun-control (which is more rightly referred to as Rights Restriction) is already keeping guns out of the hands of people…but, whose hands? And who gets to decide which citizens can protect themselves and which ones are “unable” or “unworthy”. Our guest this hour is Alexander Roubian.
Hour #2 Guest: Chris Bird, Author of “Thank God I Had A Gun”
Chris Bird has been a journalist for 35 years and a handgun shooter for more than 50. He was born in England and his interest in shooting has steered him through the bureaucratic red tape of owning handguns in England, Canada, Australia and the United States. As a commissioned officer in the Royal Military Police of the British Army in the 1960s, Bird was stationed in Berlin, West Germany, and Belgium, serving as company weapon-training officer and winning awards for shooting in competition. After leaving the military, Chris became a journalist and worked as a crime and investigative reporter in both Vancouver & Texas…and with that kind of background and experience he has a unique voice when it comes to our topic today and the fears we face as news of jihad being waged in Paris and San Bernardino. We met both of our guests at the 2015 Second Amendment Foundation Gun Rights Policy Conference (GRPC).
