E32 - The Shooting Massacre at Robb Elementary School

In the wake of the tragic shooting at Robb Elementary School, the long-standing debate surrounding gun control has been reignited. Gun control has been a highly contentious issue for many years, and there is no clear consensus on the best way to address it. Gun control advocates argue that firearms should be strictly regulated in order to prevent mass shootings from taking place, while opponents maintain that more guns in the hands of law-abiding citizens will make society safer.

While there is no single answer to how gun control can be best addressed, it is important to remember that the Robb Elementary School shooting has left 21 families in mourning, an empty seat at the dining table that will never to be filled again, and dreams that have crumbled into ashes. As the nation mourns the victims, policymakers and the American people need to decide what is best for the country.

In this episode, Jim and Dan talk about the recent Robb Elementary School shooting. They will speak about how school resource officers are heroes, why the gun control laws only affect good citizens and not criminals, and how mental illness is connected to gun violence.

It's gonna affect Dan who normally carries a gun but doesn't when he goes to the school because it's illegal now. But you know who is gonna carry a gun? This motherf*** at Robb Elementary School. That's who's gonna carry a gun." - Jim Larkin

43:12 - "What pisses me off is that: Biden protected with guns, Harris protected with guns, congressmen protected with guns, Hunter Biden protected with guns. Everybody's protected with guns. But they're not willing to protect our kids with guns." - Jim Larkin
