Speaking programs on Second Amendment and "gun control"

My 45-minute talk on the Second Amendment has been a success with high-school students! In one class period, I cover what the founding fathers wrote about the right to bear arms and why they thought it was important. I also discuss some of the relevant Supreme Court cases and how the right to bear arms was legally denied to blacks for more than half of U.S. history. The class period wraps up with a discussion of the current muddle of court decisions and why the anti-gun crowd doesn’t want the Supreme Court to clarify its interpretation of the Second Amendment. If you would like me to speak to your high school or college class in Social Science, Political Science, History, Government, or any related subject, please contact me.

I have also developed a 45-minute presentation on current events pertaining to "gun control." Although the presentation deals with politics, my job is not to present my own opinion to the class. Instead, I bring to the students as much factual information as possible about the use of firearms for self defense, gun safety, computerized guns, and other topics. My goal is to see the students use this information to make up their own minds about "gun control" proposals. If you would like me to speak to your high school or college class in Social Science, Political Science, History, Government, or any related subject, please contact me.
