To a leftist like Bellesilles, narratives are neither true nor false; they are either helpful or harmful to the Cause.

Bellesilles is a fool and a tool.
I
never call anyone that lightly.
Ignominy, thy name is Bellesilles.

Is this the guy who wrote a book about the “Myth of Guns in Colonial America” that turned out to be based on completely made up statistics?

What university has allowed this idiot to join its faculty?He is the ideal professor. Emory only dumped him because he got caught. He actually typifies academic values - gay, dishonest, liberal, close minded, and willing to lie to advance the liberal agenda.

Specific answer to your question:
"Michael A. Bellesiles is a historian and adjunct liar lecturer in history at Central Connecticut State University. His most recent book, 1877: America's Year of Living Violently, is forthcoming next month from the New Press."

I really regret I missed a chance to FReep a Bellesiles event back when the “Armed America” controversy was active, and he was still employed by Emory, and not a 2nd rate school in the sticks. His appearance conflicted with a long-planned vacation.
I’m amazed he’s not working in retail, and that anyone takes him seriously as a historian.
