The USA bill of Rights inclusive of the right to bear arms was ratified 1791, but in 1776 four publications of that year changed the world forever. Jeremy Bentham's A Fragment on Government, Edward Gibbon's Decline & Fall of the Roman Empire, Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations and The Declaration of Independence of the USA. In the English speaking world they were the capstone of society's long storied efforts to reconcile individual freedom with the neccesity of unity. On Guns, a letter to the USA, is a personal determination to bring the essense of the thought of that time, and related historical events from the Magna Carta, the Greek's effort to reconcile freedom and liberty, as well the views of several key actors from the English parliament of 1770s and 1780s, into the troubled dialog on guns in the USA. Thus allowing both ways of thinking on guns the opportunity to build a solution each other's benefit. An essential read for those wanting an informed opinion on the topic guns and the second amendment to the USA constitution.
