Right Of The People

When the wife and daughter of District Attorney Christopher Booth are among ten victims shot to death during an attempted robbery of a restaurant, the citizens are stunned and outraged. For some, grief turns to a cry for vengeance. But for Booth it becomes a rallying cry for dramatic change. Ignoring the warning from his close friend, homicide detective Mike Trainor, Booth begins a relentless effort to pass a new legislation wherein every citizen of the community who is over the age of eighteen and free of a criminal record can legally carry a handgun, openly or concealed, anywhere within the boundaries of the city. The issue, known as "Proposition G", is not intended to promote violence or vigilantism, but to give people the opportunity to defend themselves against a growing tide of lawlessness.
