Busting Gun Nuts: 25 Stupid Gun Arguments and How to Refute Them (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781540679420)

Do hammers really kill more people than guns? Would the framers of the Constitution be cool with Americans carrying AK-47s into Starbucks? How important is the make, caliber, barrel length and muzzle velocity of the gun a mass shooter uses to murder schoolkids, movie audiences, churchgoers, etc.? Busting Gun Nuts considers these questions and more. Drawing on a wide range of data and evidence from peer-reviewed journals, health and crime studies, and Constitutional Law scholars, it's a user-friendly guide to confronting common myths and misconceptions that the gun lobby has pushed for the last 50 years. Whether you're already working for gun law reform, or you want to get involved, or you just wish somebody would DO something already, this book is for you. Read the chapters in any order you like, and skip around as needed. Use it as an armchair study guide for your own benefit, or take it into the field to practice on real live gun nuts you encounter at work, school, family gatherings, church, NASCAR races, monster truck pulls, etc. In Trump's America, it's never been more crucial to arm yourself against lunatic gun arguments with hard facts, challenge extremists' "logic," and bug the hell out of your representatives. This book shows you how you can fight back.
