Episode description

Gun control policy is one of the issues of the decade. The debate goes on in D.C., Maryland, and Virginia (DMV) as to if firearms is more of an asset or a liability. D.C. doesn’t have gun shops to purchase firearms but does allow residents to obtain a gun in other states as long as they follow the proper procedures. Virginia is very lenient in their rules and even has an advocacy group fighting for the removal of gun control laws. Maryland has pretty stern regulations on owning a gun. Even with such strict restrictions on guns, Maryland routinely ranks among the most dangerous states in terms of violent crime statistics. DC is on record pace with 33 homicides year to date. In the mist of recording we got the news of Nipsey Hussle being shot 6 times then finding out he passed away from his injuries. It was sad to get the news but, went to the topic of discussion. Gun violence has been going on for a long time and enough is enough. R.I.P. Nipsey
