Patrick Blanchfield, “The Gun Control We Deserve”
The Low-Tech Way Guns Get Traced NPR, All Things Considered “Opponents of expanding background checks for gun sales often raise the fear that it would allow the government to create a national gun registry — a database of gun transactions. In fact, federal law already bans the creation of such a registry. And the reality of how gun sales records are accessed turns out to be surprisingly low-tech.”

Heller was the 2008 Supreme Court case that struck down provisions of the Firearms Control Regulations Act of 1975, which had previously banned DC residents from owning certain types of handguns. This article is a deep-dive law review article examining constitutional theory and would be best suited for law students or college/AP government students.

History of Gun Control Policy
“The Freedom of an Armed Society” by FIRMIN DEBRABANDER - Good essay on how the presence of guns and gun violence disturb and silence our other rights, especially freedom of speech.

Going Postal: Rage, Murder, and Rebellion: From Reagan’s Workplaces to Clinton’s Columbine and Beyond / Mark Ames
Patrick Blanchfield, “The Gun Control We Deserve”
The Low-Tech Way Guns Get Traced NPR, All Things Considered “Opponents of expanding background checks for gun sales often raise the fear that it would allow the government to create a national gun registry — a database of gun transactions. In fact, federal law already bans the creation of such a registry. And the reality of how gun sales records are accessed turns out to be surprisingly low-tech.”

Christopher J. Peters, What are Constitutional Rights For? The Case of the Second Amendment, 68 Okla. L. Rev. 433, 433-95 (2016) (examining the concept of constitutional authority using the Second Amendment and District of Columbia v. Heller as a framework)
Michael Waldman, The Second Amendment: A Biography. 2014
Michael Waldman, “How the NRA Rewrote the Second Amendment” Politico Magazine, May 19th, 2014
Notes: District of Columbia v. Heller was the 2008 Supreme Court case that struck down provisions of the Firearms Control Regulations Act of 1975, which had previously banned DC residents from owning certain types of handguns. This article is a deep-dive law review article examining constitutional theory and would be best suited for law students or college/AP government students.

History of Gun Control Policy
“The Freedom of an Armed Society” by FIRMIN DEBRABANDER - Good essay on how the presence of guns and gun violence disturb and silence our other rights, especially freedom of speech.

Going Postal: Rage, Murder, and Rebellion: From Reagan’s Workplaces to Clinton’s Columbine and Beyond / Mark Ames
Patrick Blanchfield, “The Gun Control We Deserve”
The Low-Tech Way Guns Get Traced NPR, All Things Considered “Opponents of expanding background checks for gun sales often raise the fear that it would allow the government to create a national gun registry — a database of gun transactions. In fact, federal law already bans the creation of such a registry. And the reality of how gun sales records are accessed turns out to be surprisingly low-tech.”

Michael Waldman, The Second Amendment: A Biography. 2014
Michael Waldman, “How the NRA Rewrote the Second Amendment” Politico Magazine, May 19th, 2014
Notes: District of Columbia v. Heller was the 2008 Supreme Court case that struck down provisions of the Firearms Control Regulations Act of 1975, which had previously banned DC residents from owning certain types of handguns. This article is a deep-dive law review article examining constitutional theory and would be best suited for law students or college/AP government students.

History of Gun Control Policy

Patrick Blanchfield, “The Gun Control We Deserve”
The Low-Tech Way Guns Get Traced NPR, All Things Considered “Opponents of expanding background checks for gun sales often raise the fear that it would allow the government to create a national gun registry — a database of gun transactions. In fact, federal law already bans the creation of such a registry. And the reality of how gun sales records are accessed turns out to be surprisingly low-tech.”
