Mecklenburg Sheriff Unconvinced On Many Gun Restrictions

North Carolina Sheriffs' Association

Groups representing police chiefs and sheriffs from major U.S. cities and counties were in Washington for meetings this week.  Like the rest of the country, those law enforcement leaders are divided on recent proposals for reducing gun violence.   Mecklenburg County Sheriff Chipp Bailey attended the meetings, and he spoke with WFAE's Mark Rumsey.

Mark Rumsey grew up in Kansas and got his first radio job at age 17 in the town of Abilene, where he announced easy-listening music played from vinyl record albums.
