Good podcast up at Dr. Helen’s site.

Today, we speak with Dave Kopel, author of Guns: Who Should Have Them? and editor of the book, Gun Control and Gun Rights: A Reader and Guide. Mr. Kopel is also Research Director of the Independence Institute, a regular contributor to the Volokh Conspiracy and runs his own website at davekopel.org where he discusses second amendment issues.

I don’t entirely agree on his vies on the legalization of marijuana, thought I do believe that drug control funds need to be shifted to more dangerous and detrimental drugs, at least for now.

As far as concealed weapons and gun rights, I’ve always agreed with the saying “An armed society is a polite society.” Law abiding citizens carrying concealed weapons make it dangerous to be a criminal, and that’s not a crime.
