For this episode, we will discuss a subject that could be the most controversial one in America. Today's topic is firearms. Guns are one topic that I heavily debated on creating episodes around due to its nature, but this is the exact topic I had in mind when I started this podcast. For this episode, we will look at gun ownership in the US today. The laws vary differently between the federal, state, and local levels. We need to look at the numbers associated with gun ownership, including the demographics of who owns firearms and the number of guns in the hand of civilians. This will be an exciting series, to say the least, so sit back and enjoy the show.
