He discusses the   genesis of modern American gun control, the KKK, the true anti-gun   agenda and the deceptions and errors used to promote anti-gun laws. He   covers the right to self defense from Judeo Christian perspectives.   Other chapters explore United Nations and International gun control   attempts and failures, law enforcement abuses and solutions, the culture   of the right to keep and bear arms and the gun control movement. He   concludes his book with a chapter on several prominent American gun   owners from Thomas Jefferson to Eleanor Roosevelt. <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Available here.
