brent: joining me now is jake charles, the executive director at the center for firearms law at duke universitythe state of north carolina. he writes and teaches on the u.s. second amendment, and the right to bear arms. for all americans. mr. charles, it is good to have you on the program. people are looking at this, and what they see is a crime, a man with a gun goes in and he guns down children, teachers, but u.s. lawmakers always bring up the idea that any attempt to control who can own a gun would be an infringement of constitutional rights. can you explain, how is that possible? guest: absolutely. a couple of things, one is that the u.s. second amendment was ratified in 1791, and a plate almost no rule in american history for about 200 years. in 2008 the united states supreme court said it protects an individual's right and to service in the militia, the introductory clause of the second amendment talks about a well-regularly militia -- the court said it is unconnected to that, and its primary purpose is for self-defense. we have seen proponents of expansive gun rights have latched onto th

a dietician at the university of illinois-chicago published an article which reads in part, quote: charlesused as a marker of, quote, uncivilized behavior, unquote. i literally have no idea what i just read. i've got to be honest with you, that was like listening to karine jean-pierre read off the wrong notecard, nicole. [laughter] here's my question. i read somewhere as of 2020, 42% of adults in this country are considered obese. my question is, how many of those folks are, you know, white? >> well,, first of all, racial and ethnic disparities -- [laughter] of course there are. racial and ethnic disparities absolutely do exist when we're talking about adult obesity. so this is where i take issue. you have over two-thirds of americans who are either considered overweight or obese, and those are both linked to a multitude of health conditions; cancer, heart disease. i mean, honestly, this could be an entire hour segment, and it costs millions, tens of millions of dollars every single year creating obese -- treating obesity and weight-related illness in our country. the difference is, there

i've been speaking to charles bullock, political science professor at the university of georgia, andrepublican establishment is finally coming forward, that they have been eclipsed for five years now, but mike pence came to georgia and did an event with governor kemp and then also the republican governors association have spent millions and millions of dollars promoting governor kemp, and even former president george bush did a fundraiser for kemp. so, we're seeing much more action in the anti—trump group than we've seen for years, so georgia may, as we look back, say in a couple of years' distance, may point to georgia this is where the establishment came forward and was willing to take on trump for the first time. is it possible that some of these candidates that are running in the deep south, with trump's endorsement which is valuable because we know that the base does listen to donald trump, but is it possible that he undermines seats, positions the gop have, puts at risk battles that they can be winning? well, that's certainly possible. because we know that there are some voters

charles: you know, we spent a lot of time today on this show talking about warren buffett. universallyor certainly in the past century nobody disputes that. it doesn't mean income he got everything right or always gets everything right. obviously he's had his share of winners however. over the years though, there have been so many folks who have been "pretending of the throne" of that thing, you guys remember eddie lampert, everyone is talking about him at cnbc, the only problem he ran sears into the ground. more recently some have said maybe it's cathie wood, although i will say, i don't think she's ever called herself the next oracle, but the self-proclaimed spac king still believes he's there. in a shareholder letter he shared this. "rule number one of investing never lose money, that's where you spit up your coffee. rule number two, never forget rule number one, he gave warren buffett credit and he said while this is correct, it's not always feasible as markets can move wildly in a very short period of time." so, he says also, when it applies more importantly that it is enough to b

charles: what makes it tougher, john. the police chief on december of last year took a course at southwest university junior college, school barricaded on this sort of thing. he also took the same course in august of 25 of 2020. in june 10, 2019, he took a 16-hour course on terrorism response with a focus on active shooter. he had the preparation. so where do you go from there if the police chief has taken all of these courses, he's been entrusted with this job. i mean, where do we go from here? a society that we want to send our kids and grandkids to school and feel safe. >> charles, it's a tough question. looking backwards on it, i think the chief made a mistake when he decided that the situation had moved from an active shooter. when you do want to get people in the building and rush in to the rooms and move to someone that was not longer a threat, more barricaded in the room and would be harder to stop. i think clearly now we know that was a mistake. you're getting phone calls from the children in the classroom with the shooter still shooting. we can look back and said he made an error. whether he knew -- the police ch
