This important new book presents a clear and systematic analysis of
the right or privilege to keep and bear arms within the meaning of
the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution. Attorney
Warren Freedman provides the answers to the arguments put forth by
the National Rifle Association and arms manufacturers and dealers.
He carefully annotates the Second Amendment and delineates the
historical background to it. How federal and state courts have
interpreted the Second Amendment is also scrutinized. Limitations
on the privilege to keep and bear arms are examined under the
police power of the states and the federal government. This is
followed by an analysis of federal and state legislation dealing
with gun control. Freedman advances an intriguing idea: civil
liability on the part of gun manufacturers, gun distributors, and
dealers in firearms and guns. What happens when the victim decides
to sue a person or persons other than the actual assailant? His
theory of negligent entrustment provides a basis for suit by the
victim of a gun assault, just as products liability law and dram
shop acts take over. Whether the reader agrees or disagrees with
Freedman's analysis and conclusions, his book is essential reading
for anyone concerned with this politically volatile issue.
