Download or read book Firearms and Violence written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2005-01-13 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For years proposals for gun control and the ownership of firearms have been among the most contentious issues in American politics. For public authorities to make reasonable decisions on these matters, they must take into account facts about the relationship between guns and violence as well as conflicting constitutional claims and divided public opinion. In performing these tasks, legislators need adequate data and research to judge both the effects of firearms on violence and the effects of different violence control policies. Readers of the research literature on firearms may sometimes find themselves unable to distinguish scholarship from advocacy. Given the importance of this issue, there is a pressing need for a clear and unbiased assessment of the existing portfolio of data and research. Firearms and Violence uses conventional standards of science to examine three major themes - firearms and violence, the quality of research, and the quality of data available. The book assesses the strengths and limitations of current databases, examining current research studies on firearm use and the efforts to reduce unjustified firearm use and suggests ways in which they can be improved.

Download or read book Handguns and Freedom written by Joe Pierre and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2002-12 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of what good are the freedoms spelled out in the Bill of Rights if the people lack the power to enforce them? As Thomas Hobbes Noted in 1651, in his book, Leviathan, “Covenants without the Sword are but Words, and of no strength to secure a man at all.” The attempts by ‘liberal’ forces in this country in the last few decades to deprive the American people of their private firearms, and thus to deny them their constitutionally guaranteed right to own and carry private means of self-defense is an old and infamous pattern of conduct, dating back centuries—a common practice of tyrants. If the people do not resist this effort we are in dire danger of losing not only our other freedoms, which are enumerated in the Bill of Rights, but also the blessings of liberty, which the Preamble proclaimed was one of the main goals of the government established by that document. This book is intended to serve as an alarm, both to the well meaning but misled who are unwittingly being used by sinister forces who would destroy our freedoms, but also for those who are oblivious to the battle for the palladium of our freedoms, the Second Amendment to the Constitution.
