So every time there is a tragedy, obviously people are looking for answers, and a lot of those answers kind of revolve around this idea of what should the government do or perhaps not do.

And obviously, with the tragedy just happened in Texas, the other one that happened in New York, a lot of the same people are saying we need more gun control.

And some of them are even coming forward and saying that, and if you don't

believe that we need more gun control, then there's something wrong with you. You're either ignorant or

you're a bad person or you don't care about what's happening in some of our inner cities,

our schools, et cetera. What we're going to do today is we're going to debunk that. And we're going to

go through some of the most common anti-gun arguments that are made,

and we're going to present you with the arguments that you need to be able to refute them

and to demonstrate that the reason why we're refuting these arguments is not simply because we like guns.

It's because we think the proposed policies will not only fail to address the problem,

but we'll actually make it worse.

I'm Nick Fratis with making the argument, and we're looking forward to this discussion today.

Thanks for listening to this episode. I hope that you will walk away today with some valuable

information. And if you do, leave us a comment on the YouTube channel letting us know,

review on Apple Podcasts, and now a review on Spotify as well.

All right, as always, I'm your host, Nick Freitas, member of the Virginia House of Delegates,

and specifically, I'm also going to mention that I am also the subcommittee chairman for

public safety subcommittee one in the Virginia General Assembly, which actually hears all

of the gun legislation in the Commonwealth.

So I'm going to be relying on some of that experience to be able to address some of these topics today.

Unfortunately, Tina is not able to be with us. I wish she was. This is an issue that's near

and dear to her heart for a variety of reasons, but hopefully we'll be able to get her to weigh in
