Gunned Down: The Power of the NRA (2015)

From the assassination attempt on US President Ronald Reagan, to the school shootings at Columbine, Sandy Hook, or Virginia Tech, to countless other mass shootings that occur every year, there has always been two constants in the United States: American citizens calling for gun-control legislation and the NRA’s (National Rifle Association) political attempts to thwart them.
