[email protected]. Book Review REVIEW OF MORE GUNS, LESS CRIME BY JOHN R. LOTT, JR. KEVIN P. LATULIP, JR.* INTRODUCTION On February 29th, 2000, a six-year-old boy in Mt. Morris Town- ship, Michigan boarded the bus for the ride to school, a slight bulge in the beltline of his pants.1 Hours later, as most of his class was lin- ing-up to head to another classroom, the boy pulled a semi-automatic, 32-caliber handgun from his pants. After initially pointing the gun at several other classmates, he turned the gun on Kayla Roland, also six years old.3 "I don't like you," the boy said, as he fired one shot into Kayla, piercing her heart.4 The young boy claims to have been seek- ing revenge for a playground disagreement with Kayla the previous 5 day.
