Quick Links

Guns in America

Gun ownership in the United States is the highest in the world, and constitutionally protected by the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution. The gun culture of the United States can be considered unique among developed countries in terms of the large number of firearms owned by civilians, generally permissive regulations, and high levels of gun violence.

The resources on the right are arranged by type: E-Books, articles, library videos, and websites. They all relate to guns in America in some way, though they may delve into other issues surrounding violence.
