As the gun control debate heats up in the wake of the Texas elementary school massacre, FRANCE 24 is joined by Eric Ruben, Professor of Law at SMU Dedman School of Law and a Fellow at the Brennan Center for Justice. Mr. Ruben asserts that a "supermajority" of Americans supports gun control. "Upwards toward 90% of Americans want to expand background checks," he explains. Yet gun reform remains elusive due to "paralysis at the political level."
