stories with a moral
This book contains 12 long stories of ordinary Americans attacked or invaded by gun-wielding strangers, who defended themselves with guns. A thirteenth chapter contains a number of shorter stories.
Several things come out of these stories. One is that if gun restrictions had been in effect, such a trigger locks, these innocent people would be dead. Another is that police tend to blame the victim first, before investigating. But after investigation, the victims are usually freed. Sometimes this blame even takes precedence over giving the victims medical attention. Another is that mainstream newspapers only carry negative stories about guns, they don't carry all the stories in which people save their own lives with guns.
Books like this are needed to counter the one-sided picture being painted by the mainstream press. Give a copy to everyone you know who is against guns.
Gun control is only one of the threats facing America today, but it does play an important role in that threat. To learn more about the other threats, read While America Sleeps: How Islam, Immigration and Indoctrination are Destroying America from Within.

What the media never shows!!!
With all social books, I bought and read this with an open mind. It turned out to be an excellent book highlighting and discussing various stories of people defending themselves and their loved ones with the proper use of a handgun. These very newsworthy stories are what scare the hateful media and liberal anti-Americans. It shows that there are people out there who use guns to defend themselves. Why the anti-gun crowd don't see or understand this if beyond me and all the rest of the freedom loving folks in this great country. Really though, what I see is that they don't want the people who they want to subjugate to have the means to resist a takeover of the country. The U.S. is on a slippery slope towards a total elimination of our freedom and rights to where the elites will have complete control of the country but I digress since that is another conversation.
This book should be a learning lesson to those who are straddling the fence on the legitimacy of handgun usage. I dare anyone to ask themselves whether they would just "peacefully" not resist to being murdered, raped, robbed or whatever (like the anti-gun crowd want you to do) or would you rabidly and vehemently defend yourself. If you decide to defend yourself, wouldn't you want to have the best means to do so in your hands? Not all of us are athletically inclined to be expert martial artists and be able to physically deter most types of attacks (then again not all martial artists are invulnerable either) which leaves us with to find other means of defending ourselves. These means include a handgun. Whether you agree with owning a handgun or not, it does not give a person the right to deny that right to others.
To speak from personal experience, my mother does not like guns nor will own a gun but she will not deny ME the right to own or use one. Something to think about for you anti-American, anti-freedom, hateful people out there.

At least get a fighting chance!
As someone from the US I have to laugh when someone from the UK (where people have been blowing each other up en mass instead of shooting them for years) has the audacity to be condescending about the gun violence in this country. At least with a gun you have a fighting chance to defend yourself. Thankfully, we are very unlike the UK where crowded buses or department stores are routinely blown up, just to make a point, something that rarely happens in the US. Thank the founding fathers, we still have the right to defend ourselves with honest weapons. The world is full of crazies, whether guns are outlawed in that particular spot on the globe or not. All those cameras on every street corner in Great Britain haven't kept their populace safe, any more than our police force can keep all of us safe. Guns Save Lives demonstrates exactly how informed and even slightly trained citizens can make a difference in the random violence that can intrude on their otherwise peaceful lives. If someone is in doubt that it could happen to them, let them take a walk through these pages. It does happen. Check out the site of this book's publisher Loompanics for a real eye opener.
