Overview

The debate over an individual's right to own a gun has expanded to include such issues as the right to carry a concealed weapon and shoot in self defense. This volume examines the consequences of gun ownership and gun control on society, including the effects on crime and school safety. Editor Beth Rosenthal has arranged several primary source essays that tackle these issues in a pro versus con format. This provides readers with more than one intelligent viewpoint to consider. Essay source Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership supports the idea that armed security guards can prevent school shootings while Randy Poindexter provides the counterpoint. Emanuel Margolis reports that gun control reduces violence and crime while Larry Elder provides the opposite view. These debates plus several others will help your readers form intelligent opinions about guns and gun control.
