In an interview with NPR, Whitney talked specifically about the aim of his book.
"What I wanted to do was suggest that especially liberals, who are generally in favor of gun control, should say, 'Now, look, we agree that the right to keep and bear arms is an individual right, and it's protected by the Second Amendment. Now let's talk about ways to make it safer to have all these guns.' That must be as much in the interest of gun owners as it is in the interest of people who fear gun violence."
Indeed it is. Gun owners want to keep guns out of the hands of criminals, the mentally ill, the homicidal, etc., just as much as the pro-gun control crowd. |
