Cheryl Todd Testifies In Support Of Keeping Kids To Be Safe Around Guns
"Teaching our children how to be safe is the most common-sense and the least controversial thing any of us could ever do.
From their earliest ages we teach our children how to safely interact with pools of water, busy crosswalks, and kitchen knives. Training children takes away the forbidden curiosity that comes with making items like firearms mysterious and taboo.
It is only when the topic is “firearms” that we suddenly decide that Political Agendas will dictate how well we train our children for safety. And it is inexcusably irresponsible to not empower our children with knowledge for how to be safe around firearms.
AZ HB 2332 does allow for parents to opt out. So, those who want their children to stay uninformed and therefore, less safe, are free to do so. However, when MY children are trained to be safe, it makes YOUR children safer as well. And vice versa, which is why offering this education is not only appropriate, it is invaluable and necessary.
In my own home we make education and training a priority, and my little 3-year old granddaughter, Kinsley, will skip into the kitchen, open the cutlery drawer filled with sharp and pointy forks and knives. She will reach in – go right past all the sharp instruments – grab her favorite pink spoon and head off to eat her ice cream.
No drama. No special laws needed. No legislative hearings. Why? Because Kinsley has been taught what knives are to be used for and what they are not to be used for. HB2332 simply does the same thing for a different tool, firearms.
It is with the strongest voice possible that I support HB2332 and I encourage you to do the same."
Cheryl Todd, AZ State Director to The DC Project and VP of the AzCDL testified before the before the AZ Senate Education Committee on AZ HB 2332 which requires that, beginning July 1, 2024, school districts and charter schools must provide public school students in grades 6 through 12 with one or more training sessions in firearms safety in an age-appropriate manner. School districts and charter schools are required to notify the parents of any student who will receive training at least two weeks before the training is provided and must allow parents to opt the student out of the training.
• Children are naturally curious about many things, including guns. That curiosity should be satisfied in a professional, controlled environment where they can safely learn how to respond to the presence of a firearm.
• Safety classes will be taught by professional instructors and will not involve having children handling firearms at any time.

Cheryl Todd Testifies Against Discrimination Focused On Gun Owners
Cheryl Todd, AZ State Director to The DC Project and VP of the AzCDL testified before the before the AZ House Judiciary Committee on SB1428. This Bill proscribes an Arizona political subdivision from prohibiting a gun show from occurring within the Subdivision.
The Bill received a party line 5 to 3 “Do Pass Recommendation”, which means that the Democrat Legislators agree with Discriminating against Lawful Commerce, simply because of their Political ideation.
• In some locales, gun shows are singled out for additional restrictions or sometimes prohibited all together, while other events proceed without interference. Such discrimination is not justified as gun shows are safe and lucrative for the host jurisdictions.
• Cities and counties should not be playing political favorites when it comes to hosting events open to the public.
Testimony to the AZ Legislature on SB1428 in 2023
The ugliness of discrimination is alive and well – and even applauded - in certain areas of our State. The truth of this saddens and angers me, as it should all reasonable people. While every one of us in this room surely believes that we would vehemently stand up against discrimination, it has been my personal experience that some actually believe discrimination is perfectly fine - when that discrimination is based in Political ideation. And when it is focused on people like me, who work in the firearms industry and who do business at events such as Gun Shows.
The firearms industry is safe, legal and highly regulated. Yet, Gun Shows, and the organizers and vendors of Gun Shows, are regularly shunned and discriminated against and treated as second-class citizens.
SB1428 stands in the gap and protects me and my family business from being arbitrarily singled out and told in so many words to “know my place” and “stay where I belong”. And allows us the same advantages as any other public event.
It is with full conviction for what is right and true that I stand against discrimination, and in support of SB1428, and ask you to do the same.

Our guest today is Alan Myers. Alan Myers is a San Diego CPA and forensic accountant. For over a decade, he has dedicated himself to researching, studying and analyzing the Federal Reserve System, banking and the national debt.
1) We are hearing more and more about a Federal Digital Monetary system. This could lead to a cashless Society and having every purchase, like the guns and ammo we buy, scrutinized by a Big Brother-esque system. What are your thoughts on this?
2) You teach classes on both Basic Natl Debt Education and Basic Climate Education. Can our nation move to a Digital Monetary system and not be impacted by the ESG social credit system? Or have ESG “morality police” checking in on our personal credit scores?
ESG stands for Environmental Social and Governance, and refers to the three key factors when measuring the sustainability and ethical impact of an investment in a business or company. Most socially responsible investors check companies out using ESG criteria to screen investments.
3) Let’s take a step back and discuss what the FED is.
4) On your website you say “We have waited far too long to take the power of money creation away from the Fed. It is now time for this enormous power to be with and for the people.” How exactly do we do that?

Our guest today is Melanie Sturm. Melanie is the founder of Engage2Win where she aims to change communication for good, and The Win Coach for leaders of all stripes – elected officials, political candidates, corporate executives, advocates, and non-profit and movement leaders.
Because persuasion involves winning people over to common ground they instinctively share Melanie teaches how to inspire an audience, including skeptics, to follow your lead, not based on what you say, but of what your audience hears you say.
Based on the truism that people don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care, Melanie teaches how to become more “hearable” by cultivating Six Powers of Persuasion.
1) What are the Six Powers of Persuasion?
2) What does it mean to Engage to Win? Can we really win over people who are hostile to our message?
3) Currently the main divide in the nation is between Conservatives and Marxists. If, as some believe, conservative ideas and values are the best for the most people, and Marxism devastates the people it purports to help, why are conservatives perceived as black-hearted and Marxists kind-hearted?
4) What is persuasion and what are the keys to being persuasive?
5) Can you give some examples of how conservatives could message better on issues that are at the top of voter’s minds in this election year? (Such as on electoral integrity, immigration, education/CRT, energy/climate change)

GunFreedomRadio EP379 Things You Need To Know with Paloma A Capanna
Our guest today is Paloma A Capanna. Paloma has been speaking and writing about the Second Amendment as the modern civil rights movement for nearly fifteen years.
In more than 25-years in state and federal courtrooms, Paloma has represented plaintiffs in ground-breaking civil rights litigation. An award-winning activist and writer, Paloma chases truth until it’s treed. The truth she has been hunting down most recently is what really happened on January 6th 2021.
And her latest work is a book titled "January 6 x 20 Things You Need to Know".
1) Before we dive into your newest book, can you help us better understand the significance of some breaking news from last week? One of the “J6” defendants was acquitted of the charges against him. Could this be a good sign of other acquittals coming?
2) Now let’s dive into your newest book. How does this book differ or expound on your previous work?
Synopsis: Walk through the twenty most important aspects of January 6 that the media and the prosecution and the FBI don’t want you to get right in their quest for a narrative that conveniently blames the day on the American people. When you cut through the noise, there is a simple set of facts. The Capitol was open. Rallies were permitted to go off on all four sides of the building. Plus eighteen more truths, all with the supporting arguments and analysis."
3) The more we unpack that day, the events of January 6th 2021 seem master-planned - but by who and how? And then once put into motion, a myriad of individuals simply became caught up in it all?
4) What is on the horizon for all of this and the people who are still being held in prison?

Our guest today is Stacy Washington. Stacy is the host of ‘Stacy on the Right” on SiriusXM The Patriot Channel 125.
Stacy is a decorated Air Force Veteran (and the fourth generation to serve in the armed forces in her family).
In 2018 Stacy earned the Second Amendment Foundation’s Journalist of the Year award. And Stacy just authored a new book titled “Eternally Cancel Proof: A Guide for Courageous Christians Navigating the Political Battlefront”.
1) Let’s dive right into your new book. The title alone sounds like it is perfectly timed for the challenges many across the nation are facing. Cancel Culture is real, and while it often backfires, it causes too many people to stay silent.
2) We are in a time of Spiritual Warfare – figuratively, the Spirit of our Nation is being battled over, and the literal meaning of Spiritual Battle is so thick we can feel it in the air around us. What words of encouragement or wisdom do you have for us about the ways in which Cultural wars are impacting our daily lives and relationships?
- Christianity
- education (Stacy is a former member of her local school board)
- CRT
