HIM 1990-2015. 1872. https://stars.library.ucf.edu/honorstheses1990-2015/1872 THE INFLUENCE OF GUN CONTROL LEGISLATION ON RAMPAGE SHOOTINGS by ANDREW D. MANOR A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Honors in the Major Program in Legal Studies in the College of Health and Public Affairs and in The Burnett Honors College at the University of Central Florida Orlando, Florida Fall Term 2015 Thesis Chair: Dr. James Beckman Abstract The United States has experienced several mass shootings in the past few years. It has been averaging one shooting every week in 2015, and something must be done about it. This problem appears to be limited to the United States since several other nations have been able to minimize, and almost eliminate the number of mass shootings. By taking an analysis of the gun laws of the United States with those of Australia and Canada it can be concluded that some aspects of strict gun control can reduce the number of mass shootings. -

The Grassroots Action Guide for Ohio Gun Owners.Qxd
Buckeye Firearms Association The Grassroots Action Guide for Ohio Gun Owners Page 1 — 5-Minute Handbook for Grassroots Activists Page 6 — How to Be an Effective Volunteer Page 8 — 15 Ways to Fight for Our Second Amendment Rights Page 15 — Become 500 Times More Powerful Politically Page 20 — Gun Rights Are About More Than Guns Page 22 — A Psychiatrist Examines The Anti-Gun Mentality Page 1 5-Minute Handbook for Grassroots Activists Adapted from an essay circulating the Internet — author unknown I’ve been a gun rights activist for nearly 10 years. I wasted a lot of time for the first 5 years because no one gave me the rule book you are now reading. Maybe that’s because no one had written it. This is the stuff I wish I had known starting on Day One. The next 5 minutes you spend reading this might save you 5 years of other- wise wasted time and energy. If you’ve been in the gun rights game for a while, this handbook will be the fastest refresher course you’ve ever taken. This past year I’ve received a lot of mail from jittery gun owners who are finally waking up to what’s happening to our right to keep and bear arms(RKBA). This handbook is mostly for them. If the rules I list below scare off a few folks, so be it. I want to tell it like it really is to give a quick snapshot of the tips, tricks and tactics that actually work in RKBA activism. The bad news is that this is not a complete list of the rules. -

Table of Contents FABLE I: a Gun in the Home Makes the Home Less Safe
Table of Contents FABLE I: A gun in the home makes the home less safe. 2 FABLE II: The Second Amendment to the Constitution does not protect an individual right to keep and bear arms. 3 FABLE III: NRA opposes “reasonable” gun regulations. 6 FABLE IV: “Gun control” laws prevent crime. 7 FABLE V: It is because of the Brady Act’s five-day waiting period and the “assault weapons” law that crime has decreased. 9 FABLE VI: Since firearm accidents are a large and growing problem, we need laws mandating how people store their firearms. 11 FABLE VII: Allowing people to carry guns for protection will lead to more violence and injuries. 12 FABLEVIII: We should ban all firearms that have no legitimate, “sporting” purpose. 14 FABLE IX: Gun violence is an epidemic that can be cured by public health measures. 16 FABLE X: Firearms manufacturers should be financially liable for the actions of criminals who misuse guns. 18 FABLE XI: Firearms are unsafe because they are not regulated under consumer protection laws. 21 FABLE XII: Hunting and the “gun culture” teach our kids to be violent. 22 FABLE XIII: Foreign countries have much less crime than the U.S. because of their stronger gun laws. 23 FABLE XIV: BATFE firearm commerce traces prove that the Clinton Gun Ban reduced the use of “assault weapons” in crime. 25 FABLE XV: A gun show "loophole" exists that allows many criminals and terrorists to purchase guns. 26 NOTES: Footnotes 28 Firearms are used three to five times more often to stop crimes than to commit them,1 and accidents with firearms are at an
