Gun Control, Abortion, And Immigration

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

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.

Not only is it our right to own guns for protection against a overbearing government, but also against those who intend to infringe on the peoples security. The criminals don't care about gun control laws for themselves. Actually, they are hoping for more laws will pass for gun control. It makes breaking the law safer and easier for them. A common belief is that people don't need guns because we have the

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

The election year of 2016 has proven to be full of acrimony between candidates and the people in our country. While this election progresses, it is difficult to determine what my decision will be when November approaches.

Every time a gun injures or kills in self defense it is used seven times in a criminal assault or homicide; furthermore the main argument against stricter gun laws is the fact that they are needed for self defense. Gun control is a very controversial and debatable topic, and many people have different opinions. In the Constitution, The Second Amendment gives the right to bear arms, but there have been restrictions on certain firearms since the Constitution was ratified. Still, gun violence continues to increase in America. There should be stricter gun laws in America because stricter gun laws will save lives, many guns are unnecessary for practical

Humans have the right to use guns for protection. “The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun.” (Donald Trump). Over 1,500 criminals a year are stopped by armed citizens. Due to the armed citizens, many people’s lives have saved. Gun control limits the good people with guns and boost the number of bad people with guns. Gun control doesn’t change the fact the bad guys still can get a gun illegally. Without armed citizens with legal guns, the criminals have all the power taking away the natural human right of protection.

As of right now, I believe that the two main presidential contenders for the November 2016 presidential elections will be Donald Trump (Republican) and Hillary Clinton (Democrat). Both of these presidential candidates are currently leading in the presidential primaries and appear to be gaining more momentum than the other candidates in their political party. Moreover, I believe the top three ‘hot button’ political issues of this presidential election will be:

There is a nice variety of individuals running for President. You have Hilary Clinton and Bernie Sanders who are the only two democratic candidates running, you also have Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Ben Carson, and John Kasich who are the only five major republican candidates. Out of all these individuals running the one I feel that is respond to current political issue is, Hilary Clinton.

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.

I think that there should be more gun control laws because it can help in the future. Even though many people already own guns and they can't be taken away because of the Second Amendment, it can prevent those who shouldn't own a gun from buying one. Implementing more laws would make it harder to own a gun, which can prevent many attacks and deaths. Even though more gun control laws won’t eliminate attacks are mass shootings completely, it will help lower the number of attacks and save more lives. Having these laws may not seem like it can do much now, but it will make it harder to get a gun in in the future and lower the chances of it falling into the wrong hands.

By Second Amendment in the Constitution, the subjects have the benefit to have and remain fight prepared. Regardless, this has remained a basic issue since decades. There have been a lot of senseless murders and killings around the United States. With better gun control laws in effect these killings and murders would not have been possible. The government, the states, and the people all need to work together to come to a solution to prevent things like this in the future. Better gun control laws would mean less killings and murders happening around the world. Think of it like this, you at work and you get a call saying that there was a shooting at your family member’s job, or school, etc. With better gun control laws that call will never come.

Gun control laws should not be strengthened in an attempt to keep the residents of the United States safe. For many people when the topic of gun control comes up they think about tragic shootings such as Sandy Hook or Columbine where innocent children lost their lives and blame it all on the gun used. This brings me to my first argument that guns are not the root cause of killings. Unfortunately even if all guns were abolished, anyone with an intent to kill will find a new option such as bombs, knives, or fire which has already been done in killings such as the Boston Marathon Bombing. The people doing the killing need fixing and help, not the laws. A study by Harvard showed several European countries with high gun ownership, like Norway, Finland, Germany and France had 9 times lower murder rates than in Luxembourg where handguns are totally banned and ownership of any kind of gun is minimal. This proves guns are not the issue, peoples mindsets are. This explains why Russia enforces very strict gun control on its people, but its murder rate still remains four times higher than in

In the upcoming presidential election, a significant differing factor among candidates is conservative versus liberal. These are two factors in the “political spectrum” that split candidates, into “left wing”, or “right wing”. Their opinions on certain subjects can be classified into these factors. Bernie Sanders, and Donald Trump, are two candidates that disagree on topics such as abortion, and same sex marriage, whilst agreeing on higher taxation for the wealthy.

While people can defend themselves, gun control needs to be more strict because guns are sold by and to people who do not fit the qualifications, children are accidentally killed, and the number of deaths in America are greatly rising.
