Alex Aragona speaks with Tim Thurley about gun policy in Canada, discussing the current state of firearm regulations, the shift away from a past political consensus, and whether recent legislative changes are effectively targeting crime. They explore the role of licensing, background checks, and storage laws, as well as the impact of smuggled firearms and high-profile policy changes like Bill C-21 and the handgun freeze. Thurley argues that recent policy shifts focus on legal gun owners while failing to address the main sources of gun crime in Canada.

On Today's Episode – Mark and John dive right in and start us off by talking some of Biden's history of lying.  With his possible cognitive decline along with major media outlets so trying to protect him, Biden is one of the weakest candidates for President of all time.  We jump over to jobs, and what are the true numbers.  People feel like their wages are down, but the Biden Administration keeps saying wages are up, but they are NOT up against the record inflation.  The government puts all these regulations on, which causes operating costs to go up, or they make businesses responsible for functions that are a government function.  When you look at Biden, Warren, or Sanders – they spend all day talking about tax the rich.  They never tell us what a “fair share” is, nor do they talk about 1% paying 40% of the budget.    Dr. John R. Lott, Jr. the president of the Crime Prevention Research Center, is an economist and a world-recognized expert on guns and crime. During the Trump administration, he served as the Senior Advisor for Research and Statistics in the U.S. Department of Justice.

He holds a Ph.D. in economics from UCLA.

Nobel laureate Milton Friedman noted: “John Lott has few equals as a perceptive analyst of controversial public policy issues.”

Lott is a prolific author for both academic and popular publications. He has published over 100 articles in peer-reviewed academic journals and written ten books, including “More Guns, Less Crime,” “The Bias Against Guns,” and “Gun Control Myths.”

Our guest today is Dr. John Lott. Dr. Lott is the President of the Crime Prevention Research Center (CPRC), which is a research and education organization dedicated to providing an objective and accurate scientific evaluation of both the costs and benefits of gun ownership as well as policing activities. He is a world-recognized expert on guns and crime and the author of a number of books including "More Guns, Less Crime" and his latest "The War On Guns: Arming Yourself Against Gun Control Lies". 1) People who want more legal restrictions on Responsibly Armed Citizens have been peddling the phrase “Guns are the leading cause of death in children”. You recently posted some research results that show that to be a false claim. Let's dig into the reasons why that is false. - Some reports use stats for ages 3-24 - there is a spike in the ages of 15-16 and particularly for black males - reports use all deaths involving firearms (including suicides and justifiable self-defense homicides) 2) We all want to save lives and make our communities safer. The Gun-Control Advocates claim that raising the age of gun-ownership to 21 will be the magic to do just that. Based on your research, will that change in the law really save lives? 3) California Governor Newsom is pushing for an Amendment to the US Constitution to restrict Gun Rights. Does his proposal make any sense to the stated goal of saving lives? • Raising the federal minimum age to purchase a firearm from 18 to 21 • Mandating universal background checks • Instituting a waiting period for all gun purchases • Barring civilian purchase of “assault weapons” 4) You recently testified at a Texas House Select Committee offering compelling information about how to effectively protect our schools – and that armed staff will save lives because they are the true immediate responders – and the Legislators simply ignored the facts and instead attacked your character. How important is it to speak up as you did even in the face of insult? 5) You made an interesting wager recently...asking Gun-Control activists to put their money where their theories are. Talk to us about that. - If Brazil's Firearm Ban Is So Great, Why Won't Gun-Control Activists Bet On It?

Broadcasting from the Free State of Florida from Echelon-Health Studios. America is following a pattern established by the Romans 2000 years ago. The pattern is autocracy (monarchy) followed by Republic followed by autocracy (dictatorship). When the powers-that-be in the state police, media, education, and big business are all dominated by Leftist influence there is no way to maintain a Constitutional Republic. And we have not. We are living in post-constitutional times and are largely ruled by unelected bureaucrats who are placed in power by elected legislators who have abdicated their authority. Still no manifesto from the Nashville killer...and we all know why. Glenn Greenwald tried to sue the Nashville Police to get the manifesto (he's a true journalist) but no attorneys will help him. Hoover's Boys seem to be in charge on this one. Meanwhile "mainstream" media CNNABCCBSNYTIMESWASHPOAPREUTERS all dutifully bury anything about the transgender shooter that may go against Official Narratives. What happens when narrow and empty minds are filled with general ideas (think sending young skulls full of mush to College and Univ)? Bad things can happen. This ties into Trans Ideology which says that a man can be a woman just by saying he is, science, traditional beliefs, and reason be damned. And if you don't accept what I say, then I may well take up arms against you. A former CIA director admits he spearheaded the "Hunter Biden laptop is Russian Disinformation" letter at the behest of Antony Blinken when he was running the Biden campaign. Did you know that murder is not a nationwide problem and that most murders occur where there is the least private ownership of guns and people who live there vote Democrat? It's true according to John Lott Jr. Someone wrote a book called Climate Change for Babies. It's never too young too indoctrinate and child or give them anxiety about dying to some on the Left. https://DoctorTommy.com/podcast

"More guns equal less crime" is perhaps one of the most pervasive myths in the United States; the reality is, firearms simply don't make us safer. This false data has since been used as justification in any number of laws, and is frequency referenced in gun lobby rhetoric. It's also been used as the basis for other false (yet popular) claims, like the myth that shooters choose "gun free zones" to commit their crimes. Hosts Kelly and JJ were joined by Dr. John Donohue (C. Wendell and Edith M. Carlsmith Professor of Law, Standford Law)  and Erin Davis (Senior Counsel, Trial & Appellate Litigation at Brady) to: break down where these myths, pervasive as they are, came from; what gave them their power, and their stickiness; and how can you, as listeners, fight back against disinformation?Want to get involved?Urge your senators to expand and strengthen background checks.Join a Brady chapter near you and sign up to attend our new volunteer session.Further reading:Will a Gun Keep Your Family Safe?

Why is the vast majority of the population not only law-abiding but benevolent, generous, and kind? What differs between these people and those who behave oppositely? And what role does religion play in helping people flourish in different societies? These are the questions that Byron Johnson investigates in his work as a criminologist and Distinguished Professor of Social Sciences at Baylor University. Press play to learn: How many billions of dollars are donated every day to charities, and who's donating it What hundreds of studies show about the relationship between religion and faith, and the ability to turn one's life around and form a new identity Why religion is a major subfield of criminology (and how it predicts who will express criminal behavior and who won't) Faith-based solutions in the foundation and transformation of prisons   Prison and probation – could there be a happy middle ground?

The idea of horror movies reducing violent crime appears counterintuitive. However, the concept of a replacement behavior becomes critical in understanding of this study. The whole idea brings about more questions than it answers. Do not be afraid to explore this new idea. Wait! On second thought, be afraid. It is Halloween! Show Highlights: - Do horror movies produce more crime, or are they “harmless” - An analysis of crime when Happy Death Day (2017) was in theaters - The draw of popular horror movies reduces the occurrences of violence - The reduction in alcohol consumption as a factor - Reduction of crime in South Africa using a computer program - The power of good replacement behavior at the right time, and in the right context. - Appearance (maybe) in the 2001 movie Hannibal Katherine L.

Ed Bonderenka has a talk with noted author John Lott (More Guns, Less Crime) on the phony statistics that seem to show support for Red Flag laws

On this Salcedo Storm Podcast:Dr. John Lott, President of the Crime Prevention Research Center, is an economist and a world recognized expert on guns and crime. He also was the Chief Economist at the United States Sentencing Commission and is well known for his book "More Guns, Less Crime.”

Today's show rundown: It occurred to Chuck, how the Democrats really feel about America. Not the average Democrat voter, Im talking the Elites - Mark says they think the American people are stupid (remember Hillary). Chuck says the Dems in Washington hold up Biden like he is a saint with "all he has accomplished". But he hasn't done anything for the average person, and it is disturbing that these Elitists feel that you just do not matter to them. You don't hear much about the DOJ filing against the State of Georgia. Chuck goes into quoting Game of Thrones..."Chaos if the ladder to power" - clearly some of these characters were Democrats. This is the reason Ben Franklin said those who trade temporary freedom for security shall have neither. The Left wants to make it so chaotic that people will just give up their rights. Pelosi gets up there and acts like she is all in on going to war with Russia. We are introduced to our guest today, and Chuck starts us out with a question about crime - why are people in NYC, Chicago and places like that, why are they tolerating the crime that is going on. John tells us that its just not that risky to be a criminal in these cities right now. With cuts to the Police and lesser punishments for serious crimes, its no big deal to be a violent criminal in these democratic havens. More about John Lott, Jr.: Dr. John R. Lott, Jr. is an economist and a world recognized expert on guns and crime. Lott has held research or teaching positions at various academic institutions including the University of Chicago, Yale University, the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, Stanford University, and Rice University, and was the chief economist at the United States Sentencing Commission during 1988-1989. He is currently a contributor to The Hill newspaper and a Fox News columnist. He holds a Ph.D. in economics from UCLA. Lott is a prolific author for both academic and popular publications.

President @crimeresearch1, author of "More Guns, Less Crime" and nine more books, Jon Lott joins Jason for multiple segments to discuss several different topics concerning the state of the nation.

Dr. John R. Lott, Jr. (Ph.D. UCLA, Economics) is best known to us as a researcher on the harms and myths of the effectiveness of gun control, but Dr. Lott joins The Republican Professor podcast this episode to discuss his recent Hillsdale College Imprimis piece called "Is Ensuring Election Integrity Anti-Democratic?" (October 2021, to 6.1 million readers). Dr. Lott provides a comparison of the US with the rest of the World on efforts to shore up election integrity. What he writes is shocking. I normally publish the episode to my YouTube channel, The Republican Professor, before it goes out to the rest of the world on Apple podcasts through TRP's website. But I hesitate to do that for this episode and the one to follow. YouTube censors discussion about Election Integrity. They took down one of TRP's videos early on when my co-host and I, Kurtis Olson, interviewed the film producer and book publisher Brad Cummings (The Shack, book and film). In three hours, Brad said his opinion that there a lack of integrity and transparency in our election system twice. That's right, in 3 hours of conversation about everything else, he briefly mentioned just twice, very quickly, his personal opinion about how much work we have to do to shore up Election Integrity in the United States, and YouTube took it down for "spreading misinformation" about a very specific election for a specific office during a specific year, details Brad hadn't even bothered to mention, his comments were so brief. Democrats run YouTube, and we had to deal with a temporary strike, or warning of a strike against my YouTube channel. I did appeal and they did republish the video to public, so you can verify yourself--go watch Brad Cummings' episode and see for yourself whether that video is "harmful" to the community. The bottom line for me is that although YouTube reinstated the video , they did so at their sole discretion without any explanation as to why they changed their minds, nor an apology. And so I'm left with a chilling effect on frank discussion about that topic on YouTube. By the way, YouTube sure seems to be run by Democrats, certainly not by Republicans. Enjoy this episode with our esteemed guest, Dr. John R. Lott, Jr., Ph.D., and look for the video on Rumble if you want to see us. The Republican Professor is a pro-secure-elections, pro-shoring-up-election-integrity, pro-Free-Speech-about-election-integrity-on-any-platform, pro-producing-people-who-can-think-for-themselves-instead-of-having-Youtube-run-by-Democrats-censor-the-information-they-may-need-to-make-up-their-own-minds-intelligently, pro-transparency-in-elections podcast. Therefore, welcome Dr. John R. Lott, Jr., Ph.D. My co-host for this episode was Kurtis Olson. The Republican Professor podcast is produced and hosted by Dr. Lucas J. Mather, Ph.D.

We've all been appalled by yet another school shooting, this time in Uvalde, Texas. We want these tragedies to stop. We want to do something.  Of course the cries to “do something” almost always means doing something about guns. Yet, the gun bill just signed into law by President Biden is unlikely to prevent future school shootings. There's a lot of evidence to show why it won't work, especially when existing gun laws appear to cost more lives than they save. So says Dr. John Lott, my guest on this episode, and the nation's leading expert on guns and gun laws. Dr. Lott, with a PhD in economics, is president of the Crime Prevention Research Center.  With almost three decades of research, his many books including More Guns, Less Crime, The Bias Agains Guns and Gun Control Myths which show that by allowing adults to carry concealed weapons significantly reduces crime in America. Some things you may find surprising:  Between 1950 and May 2022, 96% of mass public shootings in the United States occurred in places where citizens were banned from carrying guns. Yet the mainstream media refuses to mention that the attacks occur in “gun-free” zones. “If someone were threatening you or your family, would you feel safe  putting a sign in front of your home that said this home is a gun-free zone?” asks John. America's “average” gun crime statistics are badly distorted by black on black murders in our inner cities. Even average deaths of children killed by guns include teenagers, and most of those gun crimes are gang murders. “When people cite the rise in “mass shootings” in America, we need to know that almost 90% are gangs fighting each other over drug turf.” Survey data and news reports show that the fear that targeted victims might be armed deters criminals, and that guns are used in self-defense or to ward off criminal threats about 2.3 million times a year. “Burglars in the United States spend about twice as long casing a home before they break in compared to their British counterparts. What's the reason that they give? They're worried about getting shot.” In the more that 30 years since John Lott wrote  More Guns, Less Crime, his facts, arguments and recommendations remain true as ever.

We were fortunate to have two such interesting 'hands on' academics in this conversation. Within an academic climate that is not always sympathetic or collaborative they engaged in a three year research project in one of the most notorious penal establishments in the Uniteds States, Angola.   Dr. Michael Hallett is a full Professor in the Department of Criminology & Criminal Justice at the University of North Florida. Dr. Hallett just finished his fourth book and has published research appearing in numerous additional books and journals including Punishment & Society, Journal of Offender Rehabilitation, Critical Criminology and others.

Dr. Hallett designed Jacksonville Sheriff's Office Pretrial Services Unit (drug treatment/diversion) and has completed extensive work with local organizations including Prisoners of Christ, Operation New Hope, Hubbard House, the City of Jacksonville, JCCI and others. Most recently, Dr. Hallett led a three-year study at America's largest maximum-security prison, "Angola" (aka Louisiana State Penitentiary) exploring the religious lives of long-term inmates. He has served as Principal Investigator on grants from the US Department of Justice, Florida Department of Juvenile Justice, Jacksonville Sheriff's Office, Jesse Ball DuPont Foundation, and several other organizations. Dr. Hallett has chaired two academic departments at UNF (Sociology, Anthropology & Criminal Justice and Criminology & Criminal Justice) after first directing the Graduate program in Criminal Justice. Dr. Hallett frequently works on local justice issues in Jacksonville and has completed over a dozen funded projects at UNF, often employing students in the research.

Rising violent crime rates in the United States has prompted a gun control push by the Biden administration and the Democratic Party. Biden has stated in a CNN town hall that he wants to target all "semi-automatic" guns – both rifles and pistols, which have the capacity **to hold more than 20 rounds. Because most firearms possess this capability, such an act would turn most law-abiding Americans into criminals. Naturally, Biden's remarks have generated significant controversy.Here to discuss with me the Biden Administration's plans for gun control, the rationale (if any) behind them, and the reality behind guns and crime rates in America, is Dr. John R. Lott.You may know Dr. Lott as the meticulous researcher and economist behind books like Gun Control Myths, More Guns, Less Crime, and The Bias Against Guns. He is a world-recognized expert on guns and crime, and founder of the Crime Prevention Research Center and has held various research and teaching positions, including at the University of Chicago, Yale, Wharton School of Business, the University of Pennsylvania, Stanford University, and Rice University.John Lott was also the chief economist at the United States Sentencing Commission during 1988-89, and has published over 100 articles in peer-reviewed academic journals.When it comes to guns, it's important to separate the stuff from the fluff. Get the facts, on the show of ideas, not attitude.

Dr. John Lott is President of the CRIME Prevention Research Center. He was the senior advisor for research and statistics at the Department of Justice Office of Legal Policy.

Andrew Cuomo, on how to handle sexual harassment allegations made against him, calling their star anchor's involvement "inappropriate."

With the opioid epidemic still raging many have once again begun to ask if decriminalizing/legalizing drugs is the the way to go? Is that the the route that will help to solve the issue of mass incarceration in our country? Is a joint in every hand and a straw up every nose the better way than the direction we are going now? I am joined by my friend, the very talented, Dureyea Rashad to discuss this important topic.

Today's Flash Back Friday comes from Episode 48, originally published in April 2011. Jason Hartman and economist and best-selling author, John Lott, discuss Lott's book, “Freedomnomics: Why the Free Market Works and Other Half-Baked Theories Don't.” In his book, Lott answers many common economic questions, such as are free market economies really based on fleecing the consumer, and is everyone, from corporate CEOs to your local car salesman, really looking to make a buck at your expense. He bravely confronts the profound distrust of the market. Lott shows how free markets liberate the best, most creative, and most generous aspects of our society, while efforts to constrain economic liberty, no matter how well intentioned, invariably lead to increased poverty and injustice. John R. Lott, Jr. has held positions at the University of Chicago, Yale University, Stanford, UCLA, Wharton, and Rice and was the chief economist at the United States Sentencing Commission during 1988 and 1989. Lott has published over 90 articles in academic journals. He is also the author of The Bias Against Guns, More Guns, Less Crime: Understanding Crime and Gun Control Laws, and Are Predatory Commitments Credible?: Who Should the Courts Believe? The third edition of More Guns, Less Crime will be published by the University of Chicago Press this April. Opinion pieces by Lott have appeared in such places as The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, USA Today, and The Chicago Tribune. He has appeared on such television programs as the ABC and NBC national evening news broadcasts, The “NewsHour with Jim Lehrer,” and the “Today Show.” He received his Ph.D. in economics from UCLA in 1984.

Fletcher Ave. in the Suitcase City section of Tampa, FL at 6:20 am on his way to work.  A well known drug and crime infested area bordering the University of South Florida, Mark passed through the area every day.  Luckily on that November morning he was carrying a Glock 36, 45 caliber handgun resting in a Sidearmor Kydex IWB holster.  When the criminals… both of them…found themselves unable to get into the vehicle stopped just off of his left bumper, they turned their attention to him. Watching the frightening events unfold in front of him and happening at a frantic pace, Mark un-holstered his weapon and leveled his 45 at the criminal standing just feet away from him and approaching his vehicle.  When confronted with a gun pointed directly at his chest, the closest attacker waved off his partner and both men retreated to their vehicle.  Fleeing like the cowards they were, Mark was able to make it home alive that day. That frightening experience became the subject of his first column with Concealed Carry Magazine titled “The Importance of Carrying Your Gun 100% of The Time”, now listed as one of Concealed Carry Magazines “Best of”.

Returning guest and author John Lott, in his new book, At the Brink: Will Obama Push Us Over the Edge?, sounds the alarm as he documents the economic challenges we face with four more years of an Obama presidency, and builds a case for fundamental change—the kind we need to save America. Jason Hartman interviews John to discuss where John sees permanent damage, such as healthcare, and the changes that he feels need to take place to restore quality of life and financial security to American citizens. John Richard Lott Jr. (born May 8, 1958) is an American economist and political commentator. Lott was formerly employed at various academic institutions including the University of Chicago, Yale University, the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, and the University of Maryland, College Park, and at the American Enterprise Institute conservative think tank. He is currently a Fox News opinion contributor. He holds a Ph.D. in economics from UCLA. Lott has written for both academic and popular publications. He is a frequent writer of op-eds, and has written six books, including More Guns, Less Crime, The Bias Against Guns, andFreedomnomics. His most recent books include Debacle: Obama's War on Jobs and Growth and What We Can Do Now to Regain Our Future, co-authored with Grover Norquist, and At the Brink: Will Obama Push Us over the Edge?   Lott is best known for his role in the gun rights debate, particularly his arguments against restrictions on owning and carrying guns, the ensuing controversy surrounding the data and methodology used in his research, and his use of a sock puppet identity to support his position on various websites in 2002 and 2003.  

7 AM - Criminal defense professor John Lott talks about his book "More Guns, Less Crime" about gun control laws; Jack wants to know how long it would take him to run 100 meters; NBC edited a poor performance by a Russian gymnast.

A presentation by Professor Lawrence Sherman, Wolfson Professor of Criminology, Director of the Jerry Lee Centre for Experimental Criminology and Director, Police Executive Programme. Repeated experiments show that focused policing reduces crime. Yet research shows that prison increases offenders’ crime rates, especially after they are sent to prison for the first time. New forecasting tools allow criminologists to predict the few people who are too dangerous to divert from prosecution, and the vast majority of minor offenders who are “super-safe” in terms of serious violence. By letting police manage these low-harm offenders, prosecuting them as a last resort rather than the first option, we may be able to cut crime, cut costs, and reduce the prison population. This Cambridge Criminology video talk describes the key experiments for testing this hypothesis.
