Why do we love our guns more than our neighbors?

Program Note

I can’t begin to understand my fellow Americans' love affair with guns. After Columbine, after Sandy Hook, after Virginia Tech, Aurora, Pulse, the list goes on... And yet. There’s something about completely unrestricted gun ownership, an emotional tie to the idea of it, that’s stronger for so many people than the desire of so many others for safety, for the protection of our children. I have to ask, why?

Why Do We Love Our Guns is dedicated to those who have lost loved ones to gun violence. The proceeds for purchases of this score are donated to Everytown for Gun Safety.
