ESSENTIAL QUESTION: What does Jewish tradition say about gun rights/gun control?
LESSON AT A GLANCE The article introduces students to the current debate between proponents of new gun control laws and those that defend the constitutional right to bear arms. In this lesson, students engage in the gun control debate by analyzing advertisements for and against gun control, and studying Jewish sources that support and oppose gun control. Students create their own ad campaigns based on their personal position on the issue, and role play gun safety scenarios.
