Importance Of Gun Control

The world is a dangerous place to live. Every day, we wake up, send our children off to school and spend most of our lives working. We put ourselves in harm’s way every time we leave our homes. At any moment, we could be killed in an automobile accident, plane crash, gunshot wound or any other random occurrence that happens in this crazy world we live in. There have been so many advancements in technology and medicine to protect ourselves from these lucks of the draw events that life throws at us, but some people seem to have a problem with gun ownership. Gun ownership for many is viewed like the seatbelt of a car or the vaccine given to us to prevent the Flu, it is a form of protection and security. Some people in our country would argue that there needs to be a banning of fire arms or more restrictions to keep fire arms out of people’s hands. I disagree with this idea. I feel that Federal and State governments should not bad firearms or make the purchasing process more difficult. It is every legal citizen right to bear arms, whether it is for protection or sport.

Gun regulation has been a controversial topic since they were first established as a weapon. People for and against gun regulation provide strong arguments for their side. Gun regulation has fluctuated over time due to changes in office. Being a democracy prevents us from having consistency. As a nation we continue to change regulations on guns because of the different views our democracy allows us to have. The main aspects pose the most problems in gun control are violence, illegal sale of guns, and mental health checks.

We the people are forming this Declaration of Gun Rights and Control in order to shed light and encourage gun control and stop senseless violence. The purpose of the Declaration of Gun Rights and Control is to regulate and/or ban the manufacture, sale, possession and use of firearms by civilians. The reasons for creating this declaration includes the need to stop mass shootings to protect citizens, clarifying the second amendment of the Constitution so that it is not used as an excuse to “bear arms,” and saving lives because of regulation. The Declaration of Gun Rights and Control is needed to restrict gun ownership and protect our people. According to CNN, gun violence kills 90 Americans every day. This is the time for the families

The United States Gun laws need to be actively strengthened to protect and prevent harm against citizens by creating more thorough background checks, mental health checks, and more licenses specifically for different types of assault weapons. Several mass shootings have been caused by legally purchased guns caused by background checks without intensive research. With stricter gun laws harm and massive tragedies would be prevented or have more protection and safety. New laws and mandates would change the environment of gun safety and protection.

Chicago has some of the strictest gun laws in the United States yet in 2016 there were 762 gun related homicides, 3,550 shooting incidents, and 4,331 shooting victims. Despite strict gun laws Chicago had one of the deadliest years in history, so are the laws really working? Strict gun control does not mean that the amount of gun related crime will decrease. So, what is the point in making strict gun control laws?

What is gun control? Gun control are policies that restrict, posses, or modify the use of firearms. I am against the possession of firearms because firearms have caused many injuries or deaths here in California although we have many rules towards the use of firearms. The use of weapons is not really a necessity for us as citizens the only ones who should be able to possess weapons should be the authority meaning the police, the army, the navy, and etc. Firearms shouldn't have to be fired unless you have to in order to defend you or your family from a serial killer or a maniac.

I believe that we have a right to have guns. It is an amendment and also a right to have then. They were trying to take that from us and we did not stand for it. I think that we all should keep our guns and weapons because it solves nothing.

Restrictions are rules or limitations that are put in place to keep order. Restrictions have kept our country safe for years. For example, the drinking age for all U.S. residents is twenty-one years old. Imagine the risk of having a younger age or not having one at all. Also, alcohol is only sold Monday through Saturday and during certain times of the day. If restrictions were not in place there would be more accidents and deaths occurring every day. Strict gun control laws are needed to reduce the number of mass shootings.

Guns are a nuisance in the United States and citizens should not be allowed to own or carry a firearm. It is essential that regulations to gun control laws are enforced for the protection and welfare of our society.

The US has the highest firearm death rate,and alaska is the state with highest gun related deaths.This is why in my opinion we need stricter gun laws,enforced by the federal government. Even if some people disobey the new gun laws after they receive punishment it could reduce the amount of deaths.

The topic I chose to talk about is a controversial topic in today’s society and that is gun control. The reason why I find this topic so important is because it is a topic that everyone is talking about from the news to social media even famous celebrities have taken sides on this. People always ask will gun control work and the answer is no. The three main topics everyone brings up in debates are; Guns are the main cause of death in America, Guns are easy to obtain anywhere in America, and Guns do not kill people, people kill people. When it comes to death by guns in America it does not even make the top ten reasons of death in America. The major cause of death ,stated by Medical News Today, is heart disease. Well one might say, “well that

Everyone has heard about proposals for gun control in the US, but how will it work and is it really necessary? I selected this topic because gun control would strongly affect my family. I already know that gun control would be going against the second amendment and that it would be pointless to even try to control them. In my opinion, gun control would turn out to be exactly like the war on drugs. It will be a waste of money and time. People still manage to get drugs, and they will just as easily be able to get guns.

The Second Amendment protects people’s right to have an armed local militia and bear personal fire arms. The interpretation of this amendment is that the people could own a gun, during the times the constitution was written, so the locals could defend themselves if a civil war ever came to be. But in these modern times, with the major military and police force this country has, why are locals allowed guns without any regulations? Many republican legislators do not believe in restrictions to arming the people. They are influenced by constitutionalists, who along the NRA (National Rifle Association), “believe that gun laws actually make communities less safe by disarming the good guys. Post-Newtown, this was reflected in the NRA's central proposal, which was to put armed guards in schools and to give teachers gun training. And they reject any gun safety measure, no matter how small, as a Second Amendment violation” (Bennet, 5). Not only are they implementing the image of guns on educational grounds, they are also arming teachers in class rooms with children.

One of the main topics that has been sweeping the nation has to do with the Second Amendment to the Constitution, the right to bear arms. Due to the most recent shooting in Las Vegas, many American citizens have been switching their views towards strengthening the gun control laws. Gun control laws need to be strengthened in order to strengthen the overall protection from misuse of guns within the nation.

In society today, there are many casualties from gun violence cases which are very big social problem. There was shooting in Las Vegas on OCT. 2017 which killed more than 50 people and more than 500 people were injured because of gun violence. Also, there was another mass shooting in Orlando at nightclub by “radical Islamic terrorism” which killed 50 people and lead more than 53 casualties (Brander). Admittedly, some people claimed that they should have the right to ‘self-defense’ which allows possession of guns; however, in modern society there is a host of issues stemming gun violence that threat people’s safety, so gun control should be stricter.
