Naima Troutt: Why Gen Z Doesn’t Want to Be Politicians. | DSH #1651

It's too extreme.

And it's what all of the school shooters use to kill people.

Digital Social Hour
Naima Troutt: Why Gen Z Doesn’t Want to Be Politicians. | DSH #1651

It's like, okay, so if all of these people who are using guns incorrectly are using the exact same gun.

Digital Social Hour
Naima Troutt: Why Gen Z Doesn’t Want to Be Politicians. | DSH #1651

You could just get rid of that one.

Digital Social Hour
Naima Troutt: Why Gen Z Doesn’t Want to Be Politicians. | DSH #1651

You can start there, you know?

Digital Social Hour
Naima Troutt: Why Gen Z Doesn’t Want to Be Politicians. | DSH #1651

You could also, what I think would be kind of cool is if there were gun ranges specifically for those military grade weaponry and it just stays there.

Digital Social Hour
Naima Troutt: Why Gen Z Doesn’t Want to Be Politicians. | DSH #1651

So if you're an individual who, you know, enjoys recreational gun use and you want to use those kind of weaponry, maybe you don't need to own it, but there's ways for you to use it in a safe environment that's controlled, you know?

Digital Social Hour
Naima Troutt: Why Gen Z Doesn’t Want to Be Politicians. | DSH #1651

Yeah.

Digital Social Hour
Naima Troutt: Why Gen Z Doesn’t Want to Be Politicians. | DSH #1651

I, you know, I think it would be cool to have one.

And my boyfriend's a veteran.

Digital Social Hour
Naima Troutt: Why Gen Z Doesn’t Want to Be Politicians. | DSH #1651

So it's like gun safety would be a very big priority in our house.

Also, I have a cat that's a gremlin.

Digital Social Hour
Naima Troutt: Why Gen Z Doesn’t Want to Be Politicians. | DSH #1651

She would accidentally shoot someone if she did.

Digital Social Hour
Naima Troutt: Why Gen Z Doesn’t Want to Be Politicians. | DSH #1651

Oh, yeah.

Digital Social Hour
Naima Troutt: Why Gen Z Doesn’t Want to Be Politicians. | DSH #1651

She would totally do that.

Digital Social Hour
Naima Troutt: Why Gen Z Doesn’t Want to Be Politicians. | DSH #1651

I would not put it past her.

Digital Social Hour
Naima Troutt: Why Gen Z Doesn’t Want to Be Politicians. | DSH #1651

But yeah, no, I don't.

Digital Social Hour
Naima Troutt: Why Gen Z Doesn’t Want to Be Politicians. | DSH #1651

And also, historically, when we see gun use actually being policed and like legitimate gun reform, one of the main examples of that was against the Black Panthers.

Digital Social Hour
Naima Troutt: Why Gen Z Doesn’t Want to Be Politicians. | DSH #1651

So my fear is that if we have more strict gun laws,

Digital Social Hour

they are going to be unequally or disproportionately policed onto minority groups.
