درباره این اپیزود
Cuturally, we are both fascinated and repelled by guns. They play a huge role in our love of action films and our fears of criminal violence. There are deep divisions in knowledge and communication between the communities of people who do and do not own guns. The reality of guns is obscured and shaped by the stories we tell about them.
