Gun Control has been the main topic in the US lately.People have been debating whether laws should be made to make it harder for people to purchase a gun. Gun control is making this world cruel and the people in it. If I become you 2036 president you will not have to worry any more about your safety. If you're not permitted to have a gun then you will not have one. It’s a lot of killing and things going on. But with the help of me I can put a stop to it. Now and day people are crazy and they don't think before they do stuff. It’s getting really bad a dangerous out here. People are just killing just to kill people, they don't have a reason. A gun is very powerful and you have to think before. This world can be more peaceful if we help with the …show more content…
You will have to have to have a licensed to purchase a gun, Require background check for all gun sales, and Ban large capacity ammunition magazines. Lots of people in the world now have stolen guns, or guns that are not theres. But from now on if I'm elected president a person that isn't licensed for a gun will not have one. If you require a background check it will help make the world better. When people go into a gun store the owner does not know why that person is purchasing a gun. They could may have serious problems, and could be buying that gun for the wrong reason. Background checks could check to make sure they have no mental health problems, or if they are crazy or ever been to jail for anything dealing with violence. Another provision would require that any firearm lost in transit between a manufacturer and a seller would be reported to federal authorities. Although banning large capacity ammunition magazines would hurt most people because some do use the guns in a good way such as to hunt. A gun that can hold up to 100 bullets can be very harmful and hurt lots of people. We have history where they banned it but it expired in 2004. If I'm elected president it will be banned again. Don't get it wrong guns are used in a good way. Its just some people don't need to have guns in their possessions. Guns are used for protection not to kill or hurt innocent people. Gun control is the set of laws …show more content…
There is a difference between gun control and self protection. Self protection is one of the main reason people buy guns. But it can sometimes hurt the people around you. Like if you're keeping the gun in your house and you have children. They could somehow get a hold to it. Its important to keep it out of reach of children. Lots of killing is due to gun control. More than 30,000 are killed by firearms each year in this country. The average number of guns per owner has increased from 4.1 in 1994 to 6.9 in 2004. More than 10,000 are gun homicides. The right to bear arms according to the Second Amendment has been a big issue for many years in American
Gun control is a vital necessity to the welfare of our nation. Many people out there are supporting the “anti- gun control cause” with the excuse of “self-defense”. I believe that not everyone will handle a gun for self-defense. The possession of a gun is a sign of power. One of the bigger ambitions that one has is to have power and the easier it is to obtain a gun; the faster a criminal will gain power over an innocent person. When one is in possession of a gun, that person has complete control of their actions and may act upon the weapon however the person may please even if they know that their action will cause harm to defense-less people. There are many deaths caused by guns out there that could
All that should happen is certain types of guns shouldn't be accessible to the public. For example, a war zone gun like an M-16 should not be available to the general public because it is not used to hunt and is not a reasonable gun to carry simply to bare arms. Gun control would also put more restrictions on who can purchase a gun, because some people are not in the right state of mind to own a gun. Manufacturers might also be required to make all guns child proof. It's simple, if guns are available to everyone and anyone, gun violence will not be taken as seriously as it should be. Also, while more gun legislation is needed, the already existing gun laws on the state and national levels need to be strictly enforced. For example, it is a national law that in order to purchase a gun, a background check is required, but not all states enforce this law properly.
Gun control is an ineffective means of reducing both violent, and firearm related crime. Limiting the ability for law abiding citizens to responsibly own arms only reduces their ability to provide to provide security to themselves and their family. It is not the duty of the federal government to dictate what a citizen chooses to legally defend themselves with.
The situation of gun control has been an issue for many years. The Second Amendment states that we as citizens have the right to bear arms and to protect ourselves. When the Constitution was first made the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution is the heart of the issue of gun control. It also states "A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed". The states declared that the Amendment was only created to allow the government to bear arms. The way it reads though is that it grants the rights of all people to bear arms. There have been cases brought before the Supreme Court that has fought the right to bear arms and used the amendment to protect their rights. The government does not have the right to take away the guns from the people but is able to control the manufacturing, sales, and possessions of guns.
Gun control is a very controversial topic that has has a huge impact on the United States of America. One side believes that if guns were taken away as a whole, the country would see significantly less gun related crimes and death, while the other opposing side thinks that taking away guns is not only against the Second Amendment but would lead to an increase in crime and death because the government would take guns away from people who are legally registered to own and conceal guns. The ongoing debate will continue until the foreseeable future but their are plenty of reasons why more gun laws should be made. Taking away guns is not the answer, learning how to deal with gun violence is the key.
Gun violence in the United States is higher than ever, and criminals with guns will “…kill as many as 1000 people each day” (Alpers&Wilson). Taking this into perspective, it is only right to fight fire with fire or, in this case, use a gun to protect yourself and those around you. Gun control does not only decrease the ability for protection, it also decreases our rights as U.S citizens. The constitution clearly states that we are given the right to bear arms, meaning we may carry fire arms. Even if we have stricter laws for guns, it will not stop killers from shooting innocent people. These men and women causing damage to the lives of numerous individuals do not care if there is a law banning guns, because all they truly want to do is
Gun control laws violate peoples right to self-defense and their feeling of safety. Police can not keep everyone safe. People feel safer having a gun because if they ever get into a situation where there are no police available and they need to use a gun for self-defense they'll be prepared. People use guns to protect their families and homes. While others say that guns are rarely used in self-defense when they haven't been in a situation where they needed a gun for protection. Guns are used for self-defense 2.5 million times a year. 64% of people feel safer with a gun in their home because they know if something happens they'll be protected. Taking away the right to bear arms affects the feeling of safety that 80% of women and 79% of men have.
In the United States, we are experiencing more mass shootings in schools with many kids and adults dying because of ineffective laws and lawmakers stating that “guns protect peoples”, because of this we should protect ourselves with more gun regulations then deadly guns .One of these problem with self defence is that people who arm themselves could accidentally kill a loved one by either not knowing how to fire a gun or mistaken the person for a intruder. Another problem is of having guns around homes, where it can a initiated a conflict between peoples and either factions could say that they were using it for self defense. In contrast, if we have gun control laws there will be fewer mass shootings/deaths and it will make the U.S.
Gun control has been a long debate to determine if it’s better to have stricter access to firearms. America is one of the few countries that has gun rights embedded in their constitution. But what makes the US exceptional is that it has the right to keep and bear arms, other countries do not provide the right to have access to them, but rather, the government is allowed to regulate its use. The right to bear arms has also been the cause of growing violence and crime, at least according to anti-gun lobbyists. Citizens should be aware the dangers and harm that guns present to society. Controlling the sale of firearms can greatly decrease the number of violent crimes.
“A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.” The right of all Americans to bear arms is a right the Founding Fathers held to equal importance as the Constitution itself. Gun control laws directly violate this right and therefore should not even be under consideration. Even if that issue is overlooked, gun control advocates state that in order to reduce firearm related violence, gun control laws must be implemented to remove the violence caused by firearms. Although this may seem reasonable, the consequences of such laws are ironically counterproductive; they exacerbate the problem instead of fixing it. Besides the fact that the American
Gun Control will infringe the second amendment of the constitution. It states that "A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed"(ProCon 4). The Constitution is what built our country; we need to stick to it, and keep our rights. Guns Rights should not be limited or restricted; the people who use the weapons are the ones who are the ones at fault!
In the past year, I am sure that you have heard about the issue of gun control. Well, do you really know the full story behind the debate? My goal for this essay is to fully explain everything to you behind this issue and why it is such a big deal in our world today. There are many different problems behind why gun control is such a big issue in the world today, and why some people want gun control and others do not. Through these contrasting opinions on gun control, the world will never fully decide what is completely right.
According to the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution, it stated that, ‘’A well-regulated militia, that is being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms should not be infringed.’’ As the Founding Fathers, also included this in our Bill of Rights because they tend to fear that the Federal Government might oppress the population if the people didn’t have the means to defend themselves as a nation as well as an individual (Halbrook 65-84). In other words, this idea was not new to them instead the Founding Fathers’ thoughts on the right to keep and bear arms were influenced by Aristotle, Cicero, John Locke, and Algernon Sidney (7). However, I believe gun control should be justified in the society, because the Second Amendment is not an unlimited right to own guns. Gun control laws has it to be just as older
Gun control is probably one of the most debatable concerns in the constitution. There are many scenarios in which you can see the good in pro-gun control and also other scenarios where con-gun control is good. Gun control should not be a plan the U.S government should take because there are many cases in which a firearm will determine you from death or life. And the right to carry a firearm is like the right to protect our freedom, and to self defend ourselves. Firearms are used defensively roughly 2.5 million times per year, more than four times as many as criminal uses. This amounts to 2,575 lives protected for every life lost to a gun. (SAF) The people that are most concerned by this issue are those that have lost someone close to them
control throughout the nation means violating a person’s Constitutional rights. Although some people feel that the issue of gun control will limit crime, the issue should not exist due to the fact that guns are necessary for self defense against crime, and by enforcing gun control is violating a citizens second amendment right to
