Inhaltsangabe

How does the anti-gun ownershipbias in the mainstream media manifest itself, and why does it exist?¿ How has Hollywood'streatment of guns changed over the past three-plus decades, and what are thepossible social repercussions of these changes?¿How have various elites attempted over the centuries to use gun controlsto keep non-elites in line?¿ How arethese issues related to each other?¿These are among the questions addressed in Gun Control=People Control, a collection of eleven essaysoriginally published in such periodicals as Reason,Liberty, Chronicles, and Gun Week.Starting back in the middle1970's, careful scholars, many of whom were themselves uneasy about guns, beganproducing studies demolishing gun-prohibitionist claims that widespread gun ownershipfosters high violent-crime rates, that guns are useless for self-defensepurposes, and that the Second Amendment guarantees no individual right to keepand bear arms.¿ However, thesegun-prohibitionists claims have yet to be publicly discredited and are widelyaccepted in circles considered to be enlightened.¿ Why?¿Could it be that attempts to control civilian gun ownership to the pointof prohibition have nothing to do with crime control?¿ Read this book and find out.
