Episode notes

In the 1700s, it was much easier to defend yourself against the government when the two of you had the same weapons. Nowadays, like the government could just like nuke you and there's nothing you can do about it. And that's where the spirit of the Second Amendment is, right? It's not just to say, hey, everybody have your gun freak out," he says.

We discuss the latest school shooting in the context of male violence, the merit of female gun ownership in protecting ourselves from domestic violence, Elle's favorite serial killer, proportionate force between men and women, and ponder the limitations of the second amendment.
