Commentary by Richard W. Stevens, Esq.

"Ever heard of the 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution?

The 18th Amendment, ratified on January 16, 1919, made it illegal to make, transport, or sell alcoholic beverages anywhere in the United States. January 16, 1920, marked the beginning of the 13-year social experiment called Prohibition.

Americans who learned nothing from the Prohibition experience now heedlessly seek laws that prohibit the sale, possession and use of firearms. Gun prohibitionists don’t realize that their policies will backfire."

Though, the introduction may seem unrelated to the title, this article is well worth the read and quite short. Here, is the Google web search on Mr. Luty's book, and the newsgroup search produced these results.
