Join our warm and timely conversation with the prevailing attorney in the seminal U. S. Supreme Court gun control decision Printz v. United States, 521 US 898 (1997) and the author of the book we discuss today, “Gun Control and the Third Reich” (2013).

Why do Socialists like Gun Control ?
Why did the National Socialists (Nazis) like Gun Control?
How did they use “public safety” reasoning to implement it?
What was the result of that process ?
How well-documented is this ?
Today is an interview with the prevailing attorney in the seminal United States Supreme Court gun control decision, Printz v. United States in 1997, Dr. Stephen Halbrook, Ph.D., J.D..
Halbrook in unique among successful attorneys in that he approaches his Second Amendment work from a scholarly perspective, not merely an adversarial, litigious one. Dr. Halbrook has a Ph.D. in philosophy from Florida State University as well as his law degree from Georgetown, and is the author of a number of serious books. The book we discuss in this episode is “Gun Control and the Third Reich,” a particularly sobering view of the key role that gun control played in National Socialism of the Nazis rise and maintenance of power in Europe, with disastrous consequences for the innocent parties targeted by the government by the criminal law for reasons of “public safety.” The book is based on primary sources in German, and is richly footnoted.
The book is a careful study in the well-documented danger that government can pose to individual liberty in the name of “public safety,” with great cost to innocent people’s liberty, their dignity, their property and ultimately innocent human life itself.

You can purchase the book at your local bookseller (please support your local brick and mortar bookstores), or from the Oakland, California-based think tank that published it, Independent Institute, here : https://www.independent.org/guncontrol/

Today’s special guest on The Republican Professor Podcast is the Hon. Brett Kavanaugh, former judge on the U.S Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.

Former Judge Kavanaugh was nominated to the D.C. Circuit by President George W. Bush and confirmed by a Republican U.S. Senate in 2006. Prior to that, Brett Kavanaugh worked in the White House as a staff secretary to the president.

Judge Kavanaugh was nominated to the US Supreme Court in 2018 by President Donald Trump, and confirmed again by a Republican U.S. Senate.

Former Judge Kavanaugh joins us today on TRP Podcast through his judicial writing, his dissenting opinion in Heller v. District of Columbia 670 F.3d 1269 (2011), Kavanaugh, J., dissenting. He would have struck down the so-called “assault weapon” ban imposed on semi-automatic rifles in D.C. in the wake of District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570 (2008).

Multiple time TRP Podcast guest Dr. Stephen P. Halbrook, J.D., Ph.D. argued the 2011 case before Judge Kavanaugh on the D.C. Circuit. Judge Kavanaugh agreed with Dr. Halbrook, in dissent.
