A Common Sense Treatise on Gun Ownership

A great piece of work put forth here by Wayne LaPierre. I am very much in disagreement with the reader from Polk County, Florida, who says the arguments put forth by the author are not logical. Quite the contrary, it is the arguments put forth by the kooky left against gun ownership by individuals that should leave normal people scrathching their heads in disbelief. Why does there have to be an amendment to the Constitution to allow the militia (a government entity) to be armed? Pure nonsense to be sure, but that is exactly how the anti-gun crowd is trying to re-define the 2nd amendment. Individual liberty is under attack daily by this bunch and Americans must wake up to this fact and reject their goofy ideas before we all fall to their tyranny as our forefathers warned.

Turning the Tables

Finally, a source book for supporters of the Right to Bear Arms. Before "Guns, Crime and Freedom", only leftist ideologues got into print on the subject of Firearms in America. Lapierre reversed this long-standing trend and opened something of a floodgate of scholarly research and commentary supporting the traditionalist interpretation of the Second Amendment and the utilitarian aspects of a free and armed citizenry.Lapierre's research spans the alpha and the omega of the gun rights issue. The book is carefully and thouroughly sourced and the extensive bibliography includes references to anti-gun material as well as evidence supporting the gun rights stance. With the facts on his side, Wayne thoroughly explores the arguments of the gun control clique and demolishes them one by one. "Guns, Crime and Freedom" is a splendid tool for gun rights advocates who would like to do the same.

The Truth About Our Right to Bear Arms

Wayne Lapierre does an excellent job of explaining the Second Amendment and exposing the myths of gun control advocates. This book is a must for anyone who supports the Constitution and opposes the movement toward a socialist-type government. One only has to examine the recent loss of freedom faced by citizens of Australia to understand the importance of protecting our Constitutional right to bear arms.Buy this book for your friends, family and co-workers. The only way to save our precious freedom is to educate the public about their rights and counter the propaganda being spread by members of the media.

Clearest insights on the 2nd amendment I've seen.

This is a well-written, well-thought-out treatise on whether the USA's 2nd amendment (the "right to keep and bear arms") is relevant today, and if so, what it means. Whether you are for or against private ownership of guns, I highly recommend this book. The author looks at the issue in light of legal precedent, overall crime statistics, gun ownership and usage statistics, the writings of the founding fathers of the USA, and every other relevant illumination you can imagine. No rabid rhetoric here, just clear, intelligent exposition.
