Is Gun Ownership a Right?

Klappentext One of the most contested civil liberties of our time, gun ownership dominates the political, social, and educational debate forums of today. This critical edition takes a hard look at primary and secondary sources in order to analyze and present the topic from a variety of perspectives. Features from the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press, the Legal Community Against Violence, the Supreme Court, and the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence amplify the details of this heated debate, offering readers a chance to analyze critical topics related to school gun-free zones, an individual's right to bear arms, the regulation of gun ownership, and public acts of violence.
