Polls suggest Americans support stricter gun control laws, but gun legislation doesn't tend to move forward in Washington D.C. Why is that? A roundtable of experts sat down with MPR News' Kerri Miller to try and answer that question.
Guests:
Robert Spitzer — Chair of the Political Science Department at SUNY-Cortland and author of "Guns Across America: Reconciling Gun Rules And Rights"
Brian Levin — Director for the Study of Hate and Extremism at California State University, San Bernardino
Adam Winkler — Law Professor at UCLA and author of "Gunfight: The Battle over the Right to Bear Arms in America"
