Wisco Goes West

We are back after a little Hiatus, and we have a lot to talk about. This episode, we are taking a step back from the standard layout of the show and focusing solely on one issue that we both have some opinions about. Gun Reform. We discuss our side of three different viewpoints of: Don't take our guns away vs. The Government will take us out, The Second Amemdment, and the Safety and Protection of ourselves and family. We then each give you our top three suggestions on what to do about gun reform and how to take care of it.
