Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Few issues ignite such impassioned debate as the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Does it really give citizens the right to possess firearms, or is that right restricted to a "well-regulated militia" such as the National Guard?> Halbrook has successfully argued against gun restrictions in cases before the U.S. Supreme Court, such as portions of the “Brady Bill” that required local police to enforce certain federal gun laws. He brings the same meticulous, thorough scholarship to this book. He demonstrates that the right to bear arms is as fundamental a right under the U.S. Constitution as freedom of speech and freedom of religion.
