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".

* What do the background checks consist of?
* How many guns does Cindy own?
