On this episode of Blunt Force Truth, Chuck and Mark are joined by John Lott, Jr. John brings a wealth of expertise on gun and crime statistics as they discuss the recent mass shootings. Chuck and Mark get John’s thoughts on the Democrats’ calls for gun control.

They discuss how Democrats are ignoring the issue of mental health and using horrible acts of violence for political ends. They discuss how an assault weapon ban would not solve any issues and how criminals will find ways around it.
