Activismedit
In 2015 Carman involved himself in public efforts related to gun control and other social issues by releasing an internet video that garnered more than 1.5 million views in the first week of publication.[4] As part of that effort, Carman founded an activist group, the American Coalition for Responsible Gun Ownership,[5] and made several contributory appearances on national news programs including CNN[6] and CBC News[7] addressing firearms legislation in the United States. Carman's efforts drove the acquisition of more than 1,000,000 signatures on a petition, delivered to Senator Chuck Schumer urging President Barack Obama to use executive order to address some of the issues pertaining to firearms legislation.[8]
In January 2016, Carman was invited to the White House to participate in the announcement of President Obama's executive action on gun control.[9]
