Guns and gun control. Columbine, Tucson, Sandy Hook
Do we need gun control legislation?
This week’s Think Tank will present the views of —
• Hildy Saizow, a criminologist and an advocate of gun safety legislation. She is President of Arizonans for Gun Safety
• Todd Rathner, a National Rifle Association board member. The NRA has successfully fought off all recent efforts to bolster gun laws.
• Richard McCleary, Professor of Criminology, Law and Society, and Environmental Health Sciences at University of California, Irvine.
He is an expert in gun research statistics. He will fact check any statistics cited by our first two guests and present the best available research data on the subject.
