As a retired Navy SEAL with six combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, I’ve witnessed a lot of conflict and violence. I never thought I’d be in the middle of a domestic battleground here in my own country. But, here we are, on the brink of America’s most heated and important presidential election, and violence is on everyone’s mind.

Watch the video for more information on the problem and my proposed solution.
