The authors discuss the role of patriarchal ideologies, and center feminist thought and concerns in order to get beyond the one-liners, sound bites, and truisms about bad guys, the Second Amendment, mental health, and personal freedom that currently dominate public debates about guns and violence. \u003cbr\u003eWith its unique views on the ways gun violence and gender inflect each other in the United States, this book is designed for courses in media studies, women's studies, and sociology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Catherine R.
