In our next show (Sunday 27th Jan 2013), hosts Joe Quinn and Niall Bradley will be discussing the recent furore over proposed US government gun control legislation in the wake of the Sandy Hook massacre, and the implications for the right to bear arms.Many 2nd amendment advocates insist that a well-armed citizenry is the last defense against tyrannical government, but are 80 million armed Americans really the solution to the problems of a corrupt government?Is there a culture of violence in the USA, and, if so, what are the root causes? Does this alleged culture of violence and the estimated 300 million privately held firearms play a role in the statistically high number of homocides in America?Joe and Niall will be discussing these questions and more with our special guest, Jason Martin, a native of Florida who runs a software design company. A conservative republican and the proud owner of several weapons, Jason has been a life-long student of the martial arts and the history of warfare and combat theory.
