Gun Control I, 1988-10-16
Scope and Contents
According to a recent Baltimore Sun poll, one in five Marylanders own handguns. But does the state have the right to ban the sale and manufacture of handguns? And does this violate the citizen's right to bear arms? This controversy is the hottest topic in the upcoming November elections, especially in Maryland. Delegate Ralph Hughes, author of the Handgun Bill and chairman of the Citizens for Eliminating Saturday Night Specials, debates this issue with Kevin Briscoe of the Maryland Committee Against the Gun Ban.
