• Patrick continues the conversation from the previous hour about the ethics of training children to use firearms for defense
• Gary - I served in the marines and this seems like the Polish youth are simply being trained in marksmanship (07:10)
• Kristoph - I am Polish.  I grossly disagree with you! They are not training to kill. Just basic gun use. Biggest difference between US and Poland is that Poland has stricter gun laws. (15:49)
• Joe – In yesterday's reading. St Paul said we are to rejoice always. Do you know of a book to help me understand how to be joyful in tribulation? Also, what is the difference between joy and happiness? (25:49)
• Linda - Why do we allow priest to offer prayers for someone's deceased loved ones at Mass? (31:03)
• Bill - It is horrible that young children need to learn to defend themselves with firearms, but we forget in the USA how privileged we are. (33:19)
• Patrick shares the latest info about the recent Drones activity (40:29)
• Tom - I came from Poland. Thank you for touching this subject and for playing the Polish National Anthem. This training comes from a Cold War policy. I had to train growing up. (46:02)
