Beating guns : hope for people who are weary of violence Cover Image Book

Beating guns : hope for people who are weary of violence / Shane Claiborne and Michael Martin.

Claiborne, Shane, 1975- (author.). Martin, Michael (Founder of RAWtools Inc.), (author.).

Summary:

Parkland. Las Vegas. Dallas. Orlando. San Bernardino. Paris. Charleston. Sutherland Springs. Newtown. These cities are now known for the people who were shot and killed in them. With less than 5% of the world's population, the people of the US own nearly half the world's guns. America also holds the record for the most gun deaths--homicide, suicide, and accidental gun deaths--at around 90 a day and about 33,000 per year. Some people say it's a heart problem. Others say it's a gun problem. The authors of Beating Guns believe it's both.
