Gun Control
If there’s one thing most of the world knows about the USA it’s that we love guns. Depending on who you are this might be a source of pride; knowing that your country provides you with the ultimate freedom to preserve life and liberty. For others it’s a source of shame that despite being the richest nation in the world, the USA doesn’t even have the same level of gun regulations as many third world nations.
No matter how you feel about guns – knowing what to do about them is a difficult question for anybody. There are no easy answers to the debate about gun control. The information and statistics all seem to contradict each other, and everyone has such strong opinions about guns that there must be a right one.
This is where this book on gun control comes to help. Here you will be given an engaging and insightful look into the world of guns and gun control.
Understanding the true nature of gun violence and gun culture in the USA is as much about developing the ability to think critically about statistics and society as it is determining whether we should be giving people guns or taking them away.
The NRA tells you that guns stop 2.5 million crimes a year. Mother Jones tells you that you’re more likely to kill yourself or your children than a criminal with a gun. Who to believe? What’s the agenda?
Whether Republican or Democrat, gun-nut or gun-phobic; the truth is that the USA’s gun homicide rate doesn’t just beat out America’s competition in the Western world, it obliterates it. Does this mean we need to bury our guns or make sure we have enough to go around?
Discover what gun control really means and how it would manifest itself in America. How can we realistically reduce gun crime and stop headlines about another school shooting? Are the policies put forward by Obama a means to making us safer? Are they a way to take away our guns bullet by bullet? Or are they just meaningless political point scoring?
Find out if we can keep the constitution and also put safety restrictions on guns and gun ownership. Explore how easy it is for us to get guns and whether binning them would just leave us surrounded by armed criminals.
Do guns make us more or less safe? Wyoming has one of the highest rates of gun ownership in the USA but also one of the lowest rates of murder. Do you believe the right that tells you this is what guns can achieve, or the left who tells it doesn’t meaning anything? Unless you’re looking at the relationship between gun ownership and murder in states like Mississippi and Alabama.
We’ve heard a lot about Europe and how guns have both made them safer and far more at risk. What is really the situation on the ground there? Are there really no guns? Has violent crime in England shot through the roof since guns were banned? Do the Swiss really use assault rifles as backscratchers?
Don’t just discover the truth about gun control; discover how to find it out for yourself.
