On Friday’s Heartland Daily Podcast, I talk with Senior Fellow for Legal Affairs Maureen Martin about the latest developments on the gun-control front. The discussion was prompted by her recent piece in the Daily Caller titled “The Truth About Armed Guards in Schools.”
We talk about the Newtown, Connecticut shooting; the recent Taft, California, shooting; the fact that armed guards protect the school of gun-grabbing Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel; Joe Biden’s fake “outreach” to the NRA; John Lott’s “More Guns, Less Crime” research; and more.

And also watch our six-minute video about Otis McDonald, a Chicago man who forced the Supreme Court to ratify his right to own a firearm to protect himself from the criminal element.
