Us Of Ed

"Many of these people, who have been doing [mass shootings], have been abandoned in one way or another." America's obsession with firearms is one that often confuses other countries, particularly in the wake of so many high profile and devastating mass shooting events. In part one of US of Ed's two-part special on guns and gun culture, Ed and Sean discuss why firearms seem to some people to be an essential part of being an American, why mass shootings seem to be on the rise in America, and whether a bipartisan solution to gun violence might be impossible to find by this point.
