Our show will focus again on the national debate on gun control. This time we consult an expert on criminal justice. We will examine the history of US legislation and opine on whether Newtown was a tipping point or not.

Our featured guest, William Vizzard - he had 30 years with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, has been teaching since 1994 and is the author of many books, most recently “Shots in the Dark”. He is on the faculty at Cal State, Sacramento’s School of Criminal Justice.
