Illinois - John Lott to Debate Gun-Ban Extremist

Tuesday, November 27, 2001

Professor John Lott—resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute in Washington, D.C. and author of the highly acclaimed More Guns, Less Crime, the groundbreaking work on the benefits of fair, non-discretionary Right to Carry laws—will debate gun-ban extremist Mary Leigh Blek, president of the gun-ban organization that calls itself the “Million Mom March.”  Blek’s failing organization was absorbed by the gun-ban lobby formerly known as HCI earlier this year, but was allowed to keep its name.

The event will take place Wednesday, November 28, at McKendree College in Lebanon, Ill., at 7 pm.  Please make plans to attend this free event and show your support for our Right to Keep and Bear Arms.  Be sure to invite your family, friends, and fellow Second Amendment supporters.  While there is no charge to attend, one must register in order to ensure enough seating will be available.  Registration can be done by phone at (618) 537-6863 from Illinois or (314) 436-3301, ext. 6863, from the St. Louis area, or via the Internet at http://www.mckendree.edu/events/Speaker_Series/Reservation.htm.
