INFORMAZIONI SU QUESTO EPISODIO
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.
In my early 40s, I took up hunting and became a gun owner. Crossing that divide taught me a lot about why we have such a hard time talking and thinking about guns.
