E55: "Gun Violence" - What is the Root Problem?

from The Junto Podcast Hosted by edgarmills

Host Edgar Mills challenges the term "gun violence," arguing guns are tools and that violence stems from cultural decay, broken families, and failed policies. He reviews Atlanta and Georgia crime statistics, highlights black-on-black violence, and rejects collectivist explanations that deflect personal responsibility. Mills offers solutions focused on community action, stronger families, criminal justice reform, education and economic opportunity, and lawful self-defense, urging accountability at every level rather than broad gun bans.
