71Republic Contributor Conner Drigotas appeared on The Coalition Talk Radio with Pat Ford to discuss new media outlets like 71Republic. He argues that social media is in the process of decentralization. However, this will result in more unhealthy echo chambers. Outlets that promote dialogue and debate, like 71Republic, are essential to our national cohesion.

In the second half of the radio interview Drigotas and Ford discussed the changing Second Amendment landscape and why guns are here to stay regardless of laws, as outlined in Drigotas’s article: Gun Control is Dead, and So Is The Debate. As Republicans jump on the anti-2A bandwagon, where does the debate go from here?
