The response to gun violence, and the Muslim experience in Houston (May 26, 2022)

On Thursday’s show: Since 2018, homicides involving a gun have been on the rise here, according to Harris County's Institute for Forensic Science. In the wake of the horrifying school shooting in Uvalde, and ahead of this weekend's NRA national meeting in Houston, we discuss the implications of gun violence in the area and what to do about it with Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo. We also discuss how gun laws in Texas haven't changed since a similar tragedy at Santa Fe High School.

Also this hour: A new survey reveals what Houston area Muslims say life is like for them in the Bayou City.

And, in this month’s installment of The Bigger Picture, we explore what the new "folk horror" film Men may be trying to say about masculinity.
