Leslie begins today's show with her 'Ripped from the Headlines' news segment.

Here are the stories that she commented on:

1. AXIOS: "Biden's never-Trump campaign for '24"
2. AXIOS: "White House threatens to veto GOP debt ceiling bill"
3. AXIOS: "What to know as the civil trial over E. Jean Carroll's rape allegation against Trump starts"
4. CNN: "Company with ties to GOP megadonor and longtime friend of Justice Thomas had business before Supreme Court"


For the remainder of the show, Leslie is joined by Gun Reform Advocate, and Author, Fred Guttenberg.
Fred has dedicated his life to saving lives fighting for gun safety in America. He began his public life after the murder of his beautiful 14 year old daughter Jaime in the Parkland school shooting on Feb 14th of 2018. Fred’s mission ultimately led him to write his first book, "Find the Helpers."
And now, Fred and International gun policy consultant Thomas Gabor team up in a brand new book, titled, "American Carnage: Shattering the Myths That Fuel Gun Violence." The book will dismantle some of the most common myths about guns and gun violence. Its release date is May 2nd.

Here is just a sample of the myths and slogans exposed as false in 'American Carnage':

- Gun owners frequently use firearms to fend off attackers
- An armed society is a safer society
- Guns don’t kill people, people kill people

You can purchase both of Fred's books, and find out more information about what events he's participating in, at FredGuttenberg.com. His Twitter handle is @Fred_Guttenberg.

The Leslie Marshall Show - 4/25/23 - Fred Guttenberg Debunks Myths that Fuel Gun Violence

As part of our Trust & Safety Month 2023, we are delighted to be joined on The GDI Podcast by David Wolfe, Chief Executive Officer, and Neil Davis, Chief Business Officer at RealMe.

They join GDI's Senior Reporter Sean Nolan to discuss how improving safety measures will extend the longevity of online dating businesses. 

They also explain how a combination of different safety solutions can create a 'safety blanket' that will provide comprehensive and accessible protection to users.

Leslie is joined by Nick Wilson, Senior Director for Gun Violence Prevention at American Progress, where he leads the organization’s efforts to reduce gun violence and shrink the footprint of the criminal justice system while improving public health and safety.

The pair discusses the Biden Administration taking a major step towards closing the 'gun show loophole,' requring thousands more gun dealers to run background checks.
The administration first proposed the rule in August, after the passage of the most sweeping gun violence bill in decades, a bipartisan compromise in response to the massacre of 19 students and two teachers at a Uvalde, Texas elementary school.

That law expanded the definition of those who are “engaged in the business” of selling firearms, and are required to become licensed by the ATF and therefore run background checks. The rule, which implements the change in the law, will take effect 30 days after it is published in the Federal Register.

There are already roughly 80,000 federally licensed firearms dealers. Administration officials believe the new rule will impact more than 20,000 dealers who have gotten away with selling firearms without a license and performing background checks at places like gun shows and over the internet by claiming they aren’t “engaged in the business” of firearm sales.
