Guy Relford begins tonight's show talking about the consequential 2008 Heller Supreme Court case which was decided by a slim 5-4 majority. 4 Justices believed that individual citizens did not have the constitutional right to have a firearm to defend themselves in the home. In the 2022 Bruen Supreme Court case, SCOTUS threw out the notion that one must have a "need" to carry a firearm. Guy re-iterated that the Bill of Rights is not the Bill of "Needs". The Supreme Court agrees with this understanding. The Rahimi case being argued in the Supreme Court right now is worrisome because Rahimi is a very unlikable individual. Because of Rahimi's very unsavory character, the concern is that the guarantees that Heller and Bruen brought us may be blurred by Rahimi. Guy provides his opinion on how the Supreme Court may swing on this case.

Guy talks about a class he attended that was taught by Lieutenant Colonel Ed Monk, who is co-owner of Last Resort Firearms Training in White Hall, AR, where he offers an instructor class for active shooter training. Monk's strategy in dealing with mass shooters comes down to time and math. There needs to be an armed good guy that is close, who is willing to use brutal and vicious force against and active shooter.

After a late-night shooting that killed three people last Sunday, the Broad Ripple Village Association sent a letter to Mayor Hogsett asking to make Broad Ripple Avenue a "Gun Free Zone". Guy Relford after the announcement said that he had legal challenge 90% written should the city move ahead with the plan. On his radio show, Guy said that the proposal is in clear violation of the pre-emption act, and that the city has no legal authority to enforce a "Gun Free Zone" in Broad Ripple. The only possible way around the pre-emption act is the so-called "Jim Irsay exception" where private organizer of an event leases property from the city and can prohibit firearms at the event.
The problem with this strategy is that the proposal from the Broad Ripple would not cover a particular event, the proposal is to cover any typical weekend night in the area. The association appeared to be trying to shoehorn their plan into the exemption of the pre-emption act. Guy wasn't buying into this pretense and called them on it.

Guy Relford returns to the 93.1 WIBC Studios for another edition of "The Gun Guy Show". Supporters of the 2nd Amendment know that the best way to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun. Guy talks about Kystie Phillips who he defended in court after she saved the life of a police officer with her gun. Despite abundant evidence that she used her gun lawfully to save the life of the officer, she was still sued by the family of the deceased. After her victory in court, Guy helped write and pass a new law that will protect those who use firearms legally from frivolous lawsuits after the fact. In the second hour, Guy talks about talks about making Broad Ripple a "Gun Free Zone" and how Broad Ripple quickly back tracked their plans.

When a caller asks Guy why he would ‘need’ an AR-15, Guy immediately explains that the Bill of Rights is not the Bill of Needs, that there is nothing in the Constitution requiring a need to exercise one’s Constitutional rights. The Supreme Court of the United States in DC vs Heller says that firearms that are ‘commonly used’ for legal purposes are protected under the 2nd Amendment. The AR-15 is the most commonly owned firearm in America and falls under that protection.

Guy Relford returns to the 93.1 WIBC Studios for another episode of "The Gun Guy". Guy begins the show talking about President Biden's commonly used argument that guns will not protect the populace against U.S. Government. "You know, I love these guys who say the Second Amendment is — you know, the tree of liberty is water with the blood of patriots. Well, if [you] want to do that, you want to work against the government, you need an F-16. You need something else than just an AR-15," says the President. Guy revisits the quote credited to Thomas Jefferson and explains what the Founding Father's were thinking when they wrote the Declaration of Independence and established our Constitution. A caller asks Guy why he 'needs' to own an AR-15. Guy explains it's a Bill of Rights, and the not a Bill of Needs.

Mayor Joe Hogsett with the City County Council have recently made new proposals regarding guns intended to keep Indianapolis residents safe. As Guy Relford explains, these proposals are to create new ordinances, not new crimes. They can only fine people for violating an ordinance, they cannot put people in jail. In addition to the absurdity of expecting to reduce gun crimes with fines, the city of Indianapolis cannot regulate firearms because it runs counter to the Indiana Firearms Preemption Act. The law restricts any political subdivision of the state's ability to create firearm restrictions of their own, with few exceptions.

Gun control advocates celebrated Wednesday after the Supreme Court refused to block a local and state ban on "Assault Weapons" sales in Illinois. Some pundits have suggested that this may be a preview of things to come, maybe a potential national "Assault Weapons" ban. Guy Relford argues that 2nd Amendment defenders need not fear.

Guy Relford returns to the 93.1 WIBC studios for another edition of The Gun Guy Show. Guy begins the show talking about the so-called "Assault Weapon" ban in Illinois. Assault Weapon is a made-up political term that is non-sensical. Gun control advocates have been ecstatic that the Supreme Court has failed to grant an injunction on the law while it's being litigated. Should the gun controllers be celebrating? Guy is certain that the new Illinois law will be ultimately overturned on the merits. As usual, Guy takes calls from the listeners. Topics include moving legally owned arms across not so friendly state lines, credit card companies trying to code purchases at gun retailers, can green card-carrying non-citizens purchase guns, and what does it take to become a firearms instructor?

What would the Founding Fathers think about today's surge in illegal immigration at the Southern Border when it comes to the Second Amendment. "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed". Guy has repeatedly stated that a "well regulated militia" does not mean a militia regulated by the government. A well regulated militia is one that is disciplined and efficient. Guy argues that the Founding Fathers have put to paper what we as a people should do to defend our free state and our security. That the well regulated militia is to defend our free state, and our safety.

2nd Amendment Rights defender Guy Relford is one of the few coming in support of the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals U.S. v. Rahimi, a post-Bruen Second Amendment ruling. To the layman, it appears that the court is okay with dangerous domestic abusers having the right keep their weapons that they will ultimately use against their victims. But the ruling is far more nuanced than that. The ruling maintains that one's Second Amendment right cannot be infringed if they have not been convicted of a crime. Domestic orders of protection aren't necessarily a result of a crime that has been committed. The 5th Circuit has ruled that the order of restraint alone cannot erase one's 2nd Amendment rights.

On today's show, Guy comments about a controversial decision made by the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals, in the case of U.S. v. Rahimi. The court ruled that one's 2nd Amendment rights cannot be infringed if one has not been convicted of a crime. Most of the mainstream press has come out against the ruling, along with the many gun control groups. Guy comes out in support of the decision and tells the audience why. Lots of phone calls today.

IMPD policy was to collect data from all firearms and send that data to ATF as part of a federal database called the National Integrated Ballistic Information Network. Only data from firearms suspected of being involved in a crime was supposed to be sent to the ATF, and IMPD was sending data from every firearm, a possible violation of ATF policy. Only after WISH-TV's Richard Essex report in February exposing this possibly unconstitutional data collection from lawful gun owners did IMPD reverse its policy. Reporter Richard Essex calls in to talk about the report and how it forced IMPD to change its policy.

Fresh off of attending the annual NRA meeting in Downtown Indianapolis last week, Guy Relford talked about the speakers he saw there. Former President Trump was the most prominent of the speakers. While the show was winding down, Guy talked about a message he received on Twitter stating, "I'm surprised President Trump got an enthusiastic response from the NRA members since he's an enemy of the 2nd Amendment."
Guy responds that he understands where this individual is coming from. First off, President Trump after the Las Vegas mass shooting directed the ATF to find a way to ban Bump Stocks. President Trump set a precedent we don't like. After the Parkland mass shooting, President Trump was talking about a national red flag law. One of his cabinet members, or a member of congress responded, "what about due process". President Trump said, "Take the guns first, due process comes later.", and a whole bunch of us said "Whoa, hold on.. I have a problem with that."
Guy ends the discussion with the argument that there may be other candidates in 2024 that a have a stronger record on the 2nd Amendment than the former President. Guy can see that.
Doesn't mean that I didn't enthusiastically vote for President Trump twice, because I sure as hell preferred him to Hillary Clinton, or to Joe Biden, no question about that!

Talks about last week’s special show at Premier Arms in Brownsburg, and appearance by Greenwood shooting hero Eli Dicken. Guy talks about the NRA annual meeting held in Downtown Indianapolis last weekend. Guy talks about impressive South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem. Noem signed an executive order Friday that blocks state agencies from signing contracts with financial institutions that she says have discriminated against the firearms industry. Our own Indiana Republicans have not been successful getting similar legislation passed. Guy was also impressed with 2024 Presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy whose speech at the NRA was "Lights Out". Guy begins the second hour talking about a Daily Mail article showing kids with guns at the NRA annual meeting. While Guy endorses parents teaching their kids about guns and how to use them safely, he also pleads with the audience to not "give the media 'ammunition'" to make 2A advocates look like "nuts". Guy responds to person who tweeted the Donald Trump is an enemy of the 2nd Amendment. Is that true?

Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita joins the Gun Guy Show to talk about his lawsuit with other states against the ATF and Attorney General Merrick Garland regarding their Pistol Stabilizing Brace rule. The new regulations require anyone using pistols with stabilizing braces to provide their fingerprints to the ATF, be registered in a federal database and pay applicable taxes, among other things. The overriding concern regarding registration, is that registration leads to gun grabs. Rokita has been a big defender of Hoosiers' 2nd Amendment rights, and this is a great fight to have. Being that this year's annual NRA Meeting is being held in Indianapolis, today was a great day to have AG Rokita as a guest.

Guy talks about the case of Daniel Perry, an army sergeant convicted of murder in Austin Texas. Perry shot and killed Garrett Foster who approached his car with an AK-47 rifle during the George Floyd riots in 2020. While it may be an obvious case of self-defense on Perry's part, Guy discusses the mistakes Perry made prior to the fatal shooting that led to his conviction. Guy talks about the rules that preclude a defendant the argument of self-defense. The prosecution was able to submit into evidence social media posts that Perry made that worked against him in his trial. The prosecution pointed out that Perry chose to drive towards a protest, when he could have avoided it. Guy points out that while one has the right to be in a dangerous situation, it's not necessarily smart to do so. "There's legal and then there's smart... You don't ever go to jail for a conflict that never happened." Perry's posts helped the prosecution make the case that he was looking for a conflict, which led to his conviction.

In the first hour, Indiana Rep Jim Lucas calls in to discuss his bill HB 1177, which would create specialized firearms safety, education, and training curriculum for teachers, school staff, and school employees. Lucas dispels some of the disinformation out there regarding his bill. Critics of such bills often make the argument that such bills would turn our schools into the Wild West. But Lucas disagrees and says it does quite the opposite. For about the same price of resource officer, 40 staff members could be properly trained with a firearm. Armed teachers and staff make a potential shooter less likely to act, since he won't know who is armed. Lucas adds that it's just misguided to rely on the police to protect our children. In fact, courts have ruled that they are not obligated to.
"Our highest courts of the land have ruled that we are on our own" says Lucas.
In the second hour, Guy talks about the case of 23-year-old Walter Oliver who was arrested inside Castleton Square Mall on an allegation he had a handgun with Glock switch inside. Carrying a firearm inside a mall is not against the law, as evidenced in the Greenwood Mall shooting. So, was the arrest of Oliver on the suspicion he was packing against the law? Guy addresses that question.

Larry's new book "In Defense of the 2nd Amendment" is a direct rebuttal to gun control advocates, each footnoted with facts. Larry Correia is the creator of the Wall Street Journal and New York Times best-selling Monster Hunter International series, with first entry Monster Hunter International; as well as urban fantasy hardboiled adventure saga The Grimnoir Chronicles, with first entry Hard Magic; and epic fantasy series The Saga of the Forgotten Warrior, with first entry Son of the Black Sword. He is an avid gun user and advocate who shot on a competitive level for many years. Before becoming a full-time writer, he was a military contract accountant, and a small business accountant and manager. In the second hour Chris Lee from NSSF National Shooting Sports Foundation calls in to talk about some of the legislation that he and the NSSF are supporting across the nation. The NSSF leads the way in advocating for the industry and its business and jobs, keeping guns out of the wrong hands, encouraging enjoyment of recreational shooting and hunting and helping people better understand the industry’s lawful products. Guy joked that when gun control advocates say that the NRA are just shills for the gun industry, "No, that's not true, the NSSF is". And to wrap up the show Indiana State Representative Craig Haggard calls in. Craig talks about a bill he's co-sponsoring that would protect law-abiding Hoosiers from having their information shared with the federal government if they are not implicated in an active crime investigation.

Guy then talks about the Beech Grove toddler who was caught on video waving and aiming a gun. He talks about the potential charges the father will face. One of which is "neglect of a dependent". Guy then talks how he won't defend knuckleheads like this father who won't properly safeguard their weapons.

Sadat: "The current focus in the United States is almost entirely on the “rights” of individuals wishing to purchase and wield arms, which they frame as “gun rights” guaranteed by the Second Amendment of the US constitution. I like to say there’s no such thing as gun rights because guns don’t have rights, people do. And that’s not just me being professorial, it’s a fundamental point."

I like to say there’s no such thing as gun rights because guns don’t have rights, people do. And that’s not just me being professorial, it’s a fundamental point."
Guy takes issue with that logic. The 2nd Amendment is not a 2nd tier right. There is no hierarchy in our bill of rights.
in the 2nd hour, Guy talks about practical reasons for Hoosiers to get a carry license, even though our state is now a constitutional carry state. While Hoosiers have the right to carry without a license, they may not be able to carry outside the state without an Indiana Carry License.
