S2 E25: “A revolution in American gun policy” – TAG with Professor Adam Winkler TAG: Talking About Guns

- Politics
In the latest episode of TAG, we’re joined by UCLA’s Adam Winkler – one of the most cited law professors in judicial opinions today – to discuss what he deems “a revolution in American gun policy” since the Supreme Court’s Bruen decision came down in June. The “Gun Fight'' author and Second Amendment expert breaks down the new Bruen constitutionality test and its consequences. He reveals how the “centerpieces of modern gun policy just don’t have any history in the 17 and 1800s,” so they are “on thin ice.” He explains how gun rights organizations have been empowered to challenge every regulation, the possible path to the 5th Circuit decision on domestic abusers being overturned, and what he thinks the gun safety movement should prioritize when the courts are a “minefield.”
And on the latest edition of Siegel's Scope, Dr. Siegel explores the lessons learned from public health’s approach to tobacco and how they might be applied to gun violence.
