During today’s ‘Inside Scoop,’ I’m joined in the first half hour by Niko Battle. Niko is a senior at Kamiak High School in Mukilteo, Washington. He is a nationally ranked debater, a fellow for the ‘Yes On 1639’ campaign, and co-founder of ‘We Wont Be Next.’

Per ‘The Seattle Times, Initiative 1639 “would boost the legal age to buy a semi-automatic rifle to 21. Those who want such a weapon would have to pass an enhanced background check, take a firearms-training course, and wait 10 business days after purchase to take possession of the gun.

The initiative also requires owners to keep their guns secured at home, or they would face misdemeanor or felony charges, in some cases, if someone prohibited from possessing a weapon got access to it.”

During the second half hour, I’m joined by callers to discuss Caesar Sayoc, the mail bomb suspect who has been apprehended and faces 5 federal charges with up to 58 years in prison.
