About this listen
The gun debate is a polarizing one in the US, in which both sides have strong proponents arguing about the legitimacy and the benefits to society of their opinion. Each side can claim scientific research and studies to back their claims, and data is available to prove their arguments.
Luckily, we live in a democratic country, and if the general population generally holds a majority opinion, this may eventually be reflected in our laws; but until the American population becomes less divided about the issue, it seems the stalemate for gun control laws will continue.
The debate evokes so many emotions and fears that sometimes people lose their capability of listening to the other argument, digging in dogmatically in their position. Both parties constantly bring the Founding Fathers to mind; yet if they were alive today, there is a strong possibility that like the American population, they too would be divided in their opinions about gun control. You be the judge as the debate rages on.

This book is a call to return to our American roots; to remember our heritage and birthright. Most importantly, it is a reminder that our oaths are binding, and we have a responsibility to ourselves and our posterity to honor them. Douglas Hogan writes in a style that is both direct and candid. No words are minced; there is no "beating around the bush" or "tip-toeing through tulips". Douglas says what he means, and his incredible passion is ample evidence that he means what he says.

As The Assault on Reason explains, we have precious little time to waste.

Story
When our founding fathers secured the Constitutional “right of the people to keep and bear arms”, they also added the admonition that this right shall not be infringed. It is the only time this phrase appears in the Bill of Rights. So why aren’t more people listening? History has proven that guns are essential to self-defense and liberty - but tragedy is a powerful force and has led many to believe that guns are the enemy, that the Second Amendment is outdated, and that more restrictions or outright bans on firearms will somehow solve everything. They are wrong.

He defines the essence of our constitutional republic and highlights the legal history of the relationship between the states and the federal government.

Do you really want the crooked baby-kissers and fake news to tell you what your rights are? Wouldn’t you rather discover them for yourself? The founders fought tirelessly to guarantee these God-given rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. But let’s face it - the Bill of Rights is hard to understand. Its text is flowery and puzzling. It’s full of legal and political jargon.
