Now you need to arm yourself with the Truth. Buy and read Gun Control Myths today. Before it\u2019s too late.\u201d Sebastian Gorka Ph.D.,host of AMERICAN First, former Strategist to President Trump \u201cJohn Lott shows that the media and many politicians are biased against guns.<\/p>\n<p>For example, many stories are written in the media about shooters, but very few about defensive uses of guns. Similarly, he shows that some gun control policies are actually counterproductive. Shooters seek out gun-free zones. If we banned \u201cassault\u201d weapons, shooters might shift to larger hunting guns. The book is copiously footnoted. It is full of statistical and graphical analysis, so that his points are easily grasped and persuasive. Anyone who advocates gun control and does not seriously consider John\u2019s work is negligent.<\/p>\n<p>Any journalist who does not at least consider John\u2019s work is committing journalistic malpractice.\u201d Paul H. Rubin, Dobbs Professor of Economics Emeritus, Emory University \u201cWe have John Lott to thank for once again providing factual and empirical based research to counter the anti gun movement\u2019s well funded and organized campaign based on nothing more than slogans, myths and propaganda designed to demonize supporters of our cherished Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms.\u201d David Clarke Sheriff(RET) Milwaukee County \u201cJohn Lott is the go-to expert when it comes to protecting the second amendment.<\/p>\n<p>Without the second amendment Americans could be stripped of our right to arm ourselves against aggressors.
