- Few issues within the American public arena strike as strong a chord, and illicit as passionate of a response as the right to bear arms. Across the political and social spectrum voices clamoring for greater government control over access to guns as a means to diminish gun violence, clash with gun rights advocates who point to the Second Amendment as a fundamental right to be preserved, that empowers the individual and his/her own security, which in turn can act as a deterrent to mass shootings. If there is one point of consensus within this hotly contested debate, is that the alarming increase in the rate of mass shootings can no longer be ignored and it demands immediate action. Proposed solutions are diverse, ranging from the federal ban on assault weapons, the clamping down on the access of guns through enhanced criminal and mental illness background checks, the closure of the "gun show loophole," and greater oversight in the glorification of violence in the entertainment industry, to an actual increase in gun access, a stronger push for concealed carry laws, and elimination of "gun free zones" by having armed guards in public spaces. Each of these proposals spark fundamental questions that strike at the core of our social and political fabric, which within the political realm often equates to being categorized as a "non-starter" issue. On this episode of Inside Outlook, we bring together these divergent voices for a civil discussion to address these questions, and to explore inroads towards a lasting solution.

- In a world in which the "internet of everything" is taking shape, where is the line to be drawn between the ease of access to information and the right to privacy? What is the impact of mass surveillance on the expression of opinions and democracy? What is the role of whistle-blowers within government and the private sector and what, if any safeguards should be in place to allow for greater transparency and accountability? Although the debate has largely focused on access vs privacy and security, often overlooked are the advancements that big data and technological tools have afforded throughout society. Are greater discovery and innovation potentially at risk as a result of these tools being questioned? On this episode of Inside Outlook, host Gavin P. Sullivan moderates a discussion on these questions and more. Guests include: Christopher Budd - online security/privacy professional and comm. manager, Trend Micro. Magdalena Balazinksa - professor, Computer Science and Engineering, UW. Robert Perez - criminal defense lawyer, Perez & Perez Law. Dr. Barbara Endicott-Popovsky - director, Center of Information Assurance and Cybersecurity at the UW.
- Over the last 20 years, Boeing has increasingly turned to overseas suppliers and relocated operations in a pursuit of developing a more efficient and competitive 21st century global manufacturing process. If the company's record profits and market capitalization are any indication, Boeing's corporate development strategy has paid off. Despite this success, Boeing received a $199 million federal tax refund in 2013, and over the past 12 years has accumulated tax refunds of $1.6 billion. This combined with $8.7 billion in tax breaks passed by Washington State lawmakers to entice Boeing to keep the production of a new jet liner fleet. Has the state gone too far in accommodating Boeing? Regionally, what has been the historical impact of Boeing on the the economy and industrial manufacturing sector of the Puget Sound? What does the future hold for both Boeing and its the place it likes to call home? On this episode of Inside Outlook, host Gavin P. Sullivan moderates a discussion on these questions and more.

- America's veterans are faced with a complex set of challenges when reintegrating back into civilian life following war. They, along with their close family and local community are quite often unprepared to grapple with the lingering effects of deployment. Where have we as a society succeeded in easing our soldiers' return home, and conversely, where are we failing them? With both aging Vietnam War vets and a new generation of post-9/11 veterans in need of medical and health services, the VA Puget Sound has seen its load grow from 54,000 in 2000, to what is projected to be over 100,000 patients in 2014.

- The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) generates billions of dollars a year, primarily through its two most lucrative sports: football and basketball. Through television contracts and endorsements, college sports has become big business. The college sports industry generates, on average, $11 billion in annual revenues. Seemingly left out of the equation is the "student athlete." But with recent landmark cases like the Ed O'Bannon antitrust class action lawsuit against the NCAA, critique and calls for reform of the current status quo have grown louder. What does the future of the NCAA athlete and the university hold? What role does sport play at the university? Should players get paid? What kind of realistic changes can be instituted without severely impacting the sustainability of non-revenue generating NCAA sports? On this episode of Inside Outlook, host Gavin P. Sullivan moderates a discussion on these questions and more. Guests include: Donald Watts - co-founder, Watts Basketball & former UW basketball player. Heather Tarr - head coach, UW softball.

- Events like the police shooting of 18 year-old Michael Brown and the "chokehold" death of Eric Garner has turned the national spotlight on the issue of police misconduct, race and excessive use of force by police departments across the US. Locally, the Seattle Police Department was investigated in 2011 by the Department of Justice, which found that SPD officers engaged in a pattern of excessive use of force that violated the Constitution as well as federal law. As part of a deal to avoid a lawsuit, the city and the DOJ reached a settlement that included improved oversight, training and reporting. What has been the impact of these reforms on SPD policing and relations with the communities they serve? Where is the line to be drawn in preserving the legal right of police to make reasonable, split second judgments in the line of duty? What legal parameters are in place to hold police accountable when they abuse that right? On this episode of Inside Outlook, host Gavin P. Sullivan moderates a discussion on these questions and more. Guests include: Jennifer Shaw - deputy director, ACLU of Washington. Larry Mizell, Jr. - host of KEXP "Street Sounds." Ron Smith - president, Seattle Police Officer's Guild. Rev. Leslie Braxton - New Beginnings Christian Fellowship. Ted Buck, partner, Frey Buck P.S.
- According to a recent study by the Institute on Taxation & Economic Policy, Washington State has the most regressive tax system in the country. This means our tax system places a more disproportionate burden on those with the lowest income. Those falling into the lower fifth of the income bracket are, in Washington, paying roughly 17% of their income to taxes; the highest 1% of earners are only paying 2.4%. Most politicians in Olympia agree that the tax system is broken. The question is how to fix it? Despite campaign talk of no new taxes, and a leaner government, Governor Jay Inslee announced in December a budget plan that includes three new taxes, including a 7% capital gains tax. Is this a genuine step towards reform? Or a short term solution to avoid further cuts to government and to help cover a $3.28 billion deficit for 2015-2017? What are additional tax areas that could also be reformed? The state B&O tax system, revamping business tax credits, exploring an income tax, or looking at increasing property taxes? On this episode of Inside Outlook, host Gavin P. Sullivan moderates a discussion on these questions and more. Guests include: Paul Guppy - vice president for research, Washington Policy Center. Michael Schutzler - president, Washington Technology Industry Association. Jeff Johnson - president, WA State Labor Council, AFL-CIO. Charles Mudede - associate editor,The Stranger.
- There are over 2.4 million people sitting in American prisons right now. Rates of incarceration in this country have increased 400% over the past 30 years. Between 1990 and 2009 the number of Americans housed in private prisons has risen 1600%. This has led many to declare that we are living in an age of mass incarceration driven by a justice system that is over-criminalizing the citizenry, and in particular, racial minorities, low income individuals and youth. What is driving this explosive growth in incarceration rates nationally? What are the impacts of high levels of imprisonment on overall crime? What rehabilitation programs are in place to counter recidivism and are they showing results? On this episode of Inside Outlook, host Gavin P. Sullivan moderates a discussion on these questions and more. Guests include: J. Wesley Saint Clair, judge, King County Superior Court. Rebecca Roe, lawyer, Schroeter, Glodmark, Bender. Gerald Hankerson, president, Seattle King County NAACP. Nikkita Oliver, organizer, UW law student. Dan Satterberg, prosecuting attorney, King County.
- Up to three times a day trains carrying up to three million gallons of Bakken crude oil from North Dakota travel through the Northwest, quite literally under downtown Seattle and along the Puget Sound en route to oil refineries in Anacortes and Cherry Point. With big potential markets in Asia and a booming coal and oil industry in Wyoming and North Dakota in search of ports to export, the Northwest is poised to experience major growth in fossil fuel industries. What is the impact of the oil and coal industries on Washington State? In particular, what is the much-touted job creation and economic impact? What safety concerns are being considered with this increase of rail traffic? In expanding our fossil fuel infrastructure, what precedent is set in our role combating climate change into the future? On this episode of Inside Outlook, host Gavin P. Sullivan moderates a discussion on these questions and more. Guests include: Eric de Place, policy director, Sightline Institute. Ross Macfarlane, senior advisor for business partnerships, Climate Solutions. Frank Holmes, NW regional director, Western States Petroleum Association.
- There are over 40 million immigrants living in America today. Over 11 million are doing so undocumented. Immigrants account for 13 percent of the total US population and about 16 percent of the labor force. Of the 11 million undocumented immigrants in the US, more than half of this population has lived in the country for more than a decade. Nearly one third of these undocumented immigrants are the parents of U.S.- born children. In November 2014, President Obama implemented through an executive order the Deferred Action for Parents of Americans, or DAPA. The move would affect as many as five million people, including an estimated four million undocumented immigrants who are the parents of U.S. citizens, deferring deportation and allowing them to work legally for three years. Those applying for this status would have to pass background checks. On February 16, 2015 a federal judge in Texas placed an injunction against the executive order, delaying the expansion of DAPA. What does the future hold for immigration reform in the US? What realistic proposals currently exist to deal with this undocumented population and their children? On this episode of Inside Outlook, host Gavin P. Sullivan moderates a discussion on these questions and more. Guests include: Mike Gempler - executive director, Washington Growers League. Jorge L. Barón - executive director, Northwest Immigration Rights Project. Toby Guevin - advocacy director, OneAmerica. Ira Mehlman - media director, FAIR.
