A Little Handbook on the Second Amendment: What the American aristocracy Does Not Want You to Know
by Dr. Joseph L. Bass
The Downhome Enterprise, Paperback, 105 pages (December 1999)
"Too many that support the Second Amendment do not have the time to read academic
books dealing with the subject. The "handbook" re-focuses the debate on guns on issues
as seen by the Founding Fathers. Information is presented in an easily read format,
outlining the more than 3000 years of political thought represented by the Second
Amendment. We will better able to support the Second Amendment if many more of us
are better informed." -- Author

go down. Instead of making up his statistics like anti-gunners do, Dr. Lott relied on
official crime reports, and applied rigorous mathematical methods.

Comment: There are two main opposing visions of man in relation to himself,

Negroes With Guns (African American Life Series)
Lethal Laws Not available at Amazon.com for the price we offer! Hard book to find! We personally carry it!
Jay Simkin & Alan Rice
Comment: This book gives you hard proof that the downside to "gun
control" is genocide, not inconvenience to firearms owners. Lethal Laws
contains the authentic original texts of "gun control" laws -- with
facing translations -- that cleared the way for seven major genocides
between 1915 and 1980 in which 56,000,000 persons, including millions
of children, were murdered. The book also shows how America took all
but the last step of a major genocide just over 50 years ago, with the
approval of the Congress and the Supreme Court.
This work proves that "gun control", which is really civilian disarmament, delivers not safe streets but mountains of corpses.
