James Q. Wilson's "Just Take Away Their Guns" - Critical Analysis
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Firm in his stance, James Q. Wilson argues in no uncertain terms how the prevalence of gun-related crime is not associated with the weapon but instead the socioeconomic and cultural factors of a given community. This is precisely the message Wilson (1994) sends to his readers in an article entitled "Just Take Away Their Guns" in which he vilifies the very suggestion that placing legal restrictions upon the lawful purchase of guns will ultimately make a tremendous impact upon illegal use of guns. Inasmuch as law-abiding citizens take the proper steps to obtain firearms and criminals do not, removing access to law-abiding citizens merely puts them at a greater disadvantage when coming up against an offender who will always have a way to find a gun.
