Guns, Gingerbread and the American Constitution
Listen now
Description
Whatever your view of guns, this podcast will fascinate you. Sue, as a European, listens in amazement to Cindy as she describes her everyday life living with guns in the USA.  Cindy recounts why she needs to own a gun, how she practices and how the constitution allows American citizens to carry an arm (and shoot) for their own protection. As a language learner, listen out for Cindy's southern American accent and American English vocabulary such as "purse", "pants" and "packing". Try to answer these questions: * What do the background checks consist of? * How many guns does Cindy own? * Where does she keep her gun? * Where do many women keep their gun? * How (and when) does she practice shooting? * Why does she feel the need to have a gun with her? * What is "Open" and "Conceal" carry? * What does Cindy say about bullets? * What does she say about a recent hold up in her local supermarket? * What does she say about Shoot Unseen ? * What does Cindy explain about the American constitution? In this podcast, the team at english-podcasts has no intention to pass any opinion, bias or judgement on the subject, and we thank Cindy for her personal account of gun use and general attitudes.
