curval... I would contend that you do indeed have very strong feelings on gun rights... even the newest lurker will have noted that you respond to every gun thread even tho they pertain only to the U.S. in most cases.
How you arrived at your opinions is your bussiness but... If you have a book that sustantiates your viewpoint I would be glad to hear about it... Every anti gun rights book I have ever seen is rife with inaccuracies and outright lies that a child could disprove. Perhaps you know of a reputable one?
If, on the other hand... you are forming your opinions with no basis of fact or research then it seems odd that you would participate in the conversations.
I am pointing you to an author that is the best at the pro gun rights academics.
If you wish to make informed statements on the board about guns in the U.S. then you would need to read his books in order to balance out all the other anti rights things that are a part of normal liberal journalism.
fact is.. his book is out there and it is solid research by a respected economist who is very careful with data... no matter what conclussions you draw from his data you will have to admit that no one else has ever amassed so much and so carefully in one spot.
His latest book is much less dry and easy to read.
