Everything You Need to Know About Gun Violence

by Adam Furgang

Overview

Gun violence can be a confusing and scary topic. Anyone who keeps current with the news will know that gun violence occurs in our society nearly every day. This book explores the history of guns as it applies to the Second Amendment and the effects of gun violence on society. Gun control and legislation in the United States on federal, state, and local levels are thoughtfully addressed without taking sides on this controversial issue.
