Rövid leírás:
In The Gun Dilemma, Robert J. Spitzer examines this "gun rights 2.0" movement in the light of a host of gun controversies: assault weapons, ammunition magazines, silencers, public gun brandishing and display, and the emergent Second Amendment sanctuary movement. Given the importance of actual gun law history to this debate, Spitzer draws from the historical record to illuminate several contemporary and emergent gun controversies that may well make their way to the Supreme Court. Revealing and illuminating as that history is, he argues that we should not be straitjacketed by that history, but rather informed by it as the nation struggles with how to frame its gun policies.

An informed and sophisticated look at the current debate between gun laws and gun rights in America.
Contemporary gun controversies are deeply rooted in our history, yet much of that history is unknown, ignored, or distorted. This is all the more important because a new gun rights movement is pressing to expand the definition of gun rights well beyond the standard set by the Supreme Court in its landmark, controversial Heller ruling from 2008. These activists' efforts have found a receptive audience among a new generation of very conservative federal judges cultivated in part for their professed adherence to the doctrine of constitutional Originalism and fealty to an expansive reading of gun rights.

By utilizing novel information sources to explore both gun law history and current debates, The Gun Dilemma provides an informed and sophisticated challenge to the ascendant originalists who appear to be set on enshrining in law a radical libertarian vision of gun rights.
The conservatives' campaign to expand gun rights through the legislatures and courts often is cloaked in faulty claims about American history. In this book, Robert Spitzer sets the historical record straight when it comes to regulating large-capacity magazines, silencers, and carrying guns in public, as well as with the particularly scary 'sanctuary' movement. Common-sense gun regulation, it turns out, is as American as apple pie, and there remains broad public support for that approach. Spitzer's well-founded concern, amply illustrated in this book, is that that approach is being trumped by a pro-gun judicial ideology, putting public safety further at risk.
