The subject of Gun Control for many seems to be a modern issue, but it has been with America since before the nation's inception. Has Gun Control best served the People or its Architects? Investigative Analyst Howard Nemerov compares the rhetoric and the legislation to the reality of how Gun Control's promises and laws have come to affect real people. Nemerov documents the pattern and practice as it has operated throughout the entire life of the nation to date. Today, the observation is that Gun Control has not worked...Or has it, and for whom? Otherwise, after four hundred years: Why isn't it working?

This review is from: Four Hundred Years Of Gun Control - Why Isn't It Working? (Paperback)
The book, Four Hundred Years of Gun Control...Why Isn't It Working?" is the first publication from a new Libertarian and pro-gun publishing company called Contrast Media Press. The publishing company is owned and operated by journalist, John Longenecker."Four Hundred Years of Gun Control...Why Isn't It Working?" was written by Howard Nemerov, a healthcare researcher. Nemerov used to favor total civilian disarmament, and set out to prove that gun control would make society safer. However, the results of his research had the complete opposite effect. Through his research, Nemrov proved that strict gun control laws do not make society safer and it turned him into a strong supporter of the Second Amendment. His ongoing research has been turned into numerous articles and the book, "Four Hundred Years of Gun Control...Why Isn't It Working?" The book is filled with more than enough statistics to keep a numbers geek like me happy. Don't get me wrong, it is not just a book full of statistics, graphs, and charts. It is a highly educational and entertaining book. "Four Hundred Years of Gun Control...Why Isn't It Working?" is very comparable to John Lott's book, "More Guns, Less Crime" In case you do not know, John Lott's research is held in extremely high regards by gun owners, Second Amendment advocates, patriots, and scholars. That being said, comparing Nemerov's research to John Lott`s research is a huge compliment. "Four Hundred Years of Gun Control...Why Isn't It Working?" is broken down into eight chapters, an appendix, and over thirty pages of endnotes. Unlike many anti-gun researchers, Nemerov is more than willing to show you where he obtained his information. The following is a quick summary of all eight chapters. Chapter 1: A Brief History of Gun Control Just as the title says, this chapter gives you a quick history on gun control. It exposes how the initial gun control laws were used to disarm blacks, Native Americans, and select groups of immigrants. Chapter 2: Modern Experiments In Gun Control This chapter explains how recent civilian disarmaments in England and Australia have failed to make those countries safer. Chapter 3: Product Defect or Defective Policy This chapter discusses how gun control advocates are trying to control guns through consumer protection laws by having them declared to be defective products. Nemerov turns the table and shows why this idea is a defective policy. Chapter Four: The Politics of Gun Control This chapter discusses the political side to gun control, lawsuits against the firearm industry, and more. Chapter 5: The Information Machines of Gun Control This chapter is definitely worth more than the price of the book alone. It discusses how gun control advocates have used the media to control the flow of information. Numerous firearms related studies are also broken down and clearly explained. Chapter Six: The United Nations and Global Disarmament This chapter deals with the real threat that the United Nations poses against our Second Amendment rights. Chapter Seven: By Their Own Words This is a short, but very powerful chapter. It discusses what the statistics from anti-gun groups actually prove. Chapter 8: Call the Cops This chapter discusses how Clinton's "COPS" program was not responsible for the decrease in crime during its time period. Howard Nemerov's "Four Hundred Years of Gun Control...Why Isn't It Working?" is a must-read for all Americans. It will arm you with the facts necessary to combat the lies that are presented as facts by gun control advocates.

This review is from: Four Hundred Years Of Gun Control - Why Isn't It Working? (Paperback)
A world without guns - on paper, it sounds like a great idea. "Four Hundred Years of Gun Control: Why Isn't It Working?" is a look back on America's long history of restricted gun ownership from even before America was a country. An educated and scholarly look at one of America's most hotly debated issues and one that has been for centuries, "Four Hundred Years of Gun Control" is a must for any discussion on Gun control and for anyone who thinks removing protection from citizens is a good idea.
