Follow on Google News | Producer Norm Novitsky Urges Public to Really Learn About the Bill of RightsFilm producer and director Norm Novitsky who is currently working on a feature film about the U.S. Constitution, is urging the public to learn more about the Bill of Rights and recommended a list of online sources.
By: Norm Novitsky Norm Novitsky stated "We have a lot of dialogue and controversies going on today about some of the issues contained in the Bill of Rights. One example is the Sandy Hook tragedy and the response of the President and Senator Feinstein urging more restrictions on gun ownership. Yet if you read the Second Amendment it says that the rights of the people to own guns shall not be infringed. That means what it says and its meaning is pretty clear. It's important to understand why the Founders felt that needed to be in the Bill of Rights, and to even understand what has happened in other countries where gun ownership has been banned. And it's even important to understand the eventual goal of people urging gun bans and restrictions, which I believe is clearly to ban guns altogether. The argument for more stringent gun control laws by gun control advocates is weak if not entirely inaccurate, case in point the city of Chicago. Chicago having one of the highest rates in crimes, lethal or otherwise, by the use of firearms, yet has one of the toughest gun control laws nationally. That's just one example but it underscores why it is important to learn about the Bill of Rights, this important legacy left to us by the Founding Fathers." Novitsky recommended the following online sources for learning about the Bill of Rights: http://www.constitutionfacts.com/ http://memorize.com/ http://www.historyforkids.org/ http://civilliberty.about.com/ Norm Novitsky's current film project, “In Search of Liberty” (http://www.insearchofliberty.com) “The buzz and dialogue regarding the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights continues to escalate,” says Novitsky. “When you really understand this amazing document, you can begin to better take control of your life and protect your liberties."
