What Does Judaism Say About Gun Control?

«One of the things we have seen is an intensifying of the gun control debate by well-meaning citizens on both sides of the issue. Frankly this creates a debate within ourselves as well. Many of us appreciate and are torn between both approaches to this vexing issue.

As Jews, our teachings tell us that preserving human life is the greatest human calling, and murder the most depraved attack on man and G*d there can be.

The question is: What does Jewish tradition and law tell us about the best way to preserve human life?»
