More Strict Gun Control In The United States

Some could say that it really depends on whom you talk to of how the Second Amendment applies to the current battle over gun control in today’s society. For example, gun rights advocates like the NRA (National Rifle Association) interpret the Amendment to ensure the right of individuals to possess and carry firearms (A Right to Bear Arms?, UMKC School of Law). Gun control advocates such as the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence state that the term “militia” is used elsewhere in the Constitution, and it always refers to the state-organized militia (Tushnet, Interpreting). They believe that the Second Amendment is specifically slated towards the state-organized militia. The Amendment means that the Congress cannot disarm the

The 2nd Amendment clearly states that everyone has the right to own guns and that right should not be infringed upon. Some people believe that we should take the 2nd Amendment out of the Constitution because of the recent shootings within schools across the country. We believe that it is important for people to be able to own guns and protect themselves from criminals. Even if guns were banned from being used by civilians, criminals would still be able to get them and use them in a harmful way. We believe that while guns have been used in harmful ways towards other human beings, they are necessary for the protection of citizens. A way to regulate guns would be to decide what guns specifically could be used (such as smaller handguns), who could

Stricter gun laws are required to reduce casualties caused by gun violence. People have right to own guns base on the 2nd amendment of the U.S constitution. According to “Background on Gun Control” 91% percent of Americans say that there should be least minor restrictions on gun ownership. However, research shown that children who died after being accidentally shot has increased from 140 in 1996 up to 259 in 2012 every year. In my opinion, the U.S government should increase stricter gun regulations on background check; mental examination and safety trainings to prevent misfiring that cause death and injuries among our friends and family.

Stronger gun control laws should be enacted. Firstly, the murder rate in America will decrease. Secondly, there wouldn’t be so many gun attacks and suicides. The article “American deaths in terrorism vs. gun violence in one graph” by Julia Jones and Eve Bower shows how dangerous guns are now and how they are used for attacks rather than protection.

From the Connecticut Sandy Hook School shooting in 2012, to the Recent Parkland School shooting in Florida, hundreds of innocent students and adults have been murdered by guns, and the public is questioning whether or not to have more gun control laws. In order to protect and prevent these traumatic mass shootings we need to pay attention to citizens who have mental issues, have stricter gun purchasing laws, and also stop selling military replicas.

Gun control is a big thing in the world today. Many Americans want it but also many don’t. There are both good reasoning’s and there are bad reasoning’s. Gun control is for our own safety but can also take our safe feelings away by knowing we won’t have a gun in hand to protect us in a real time of need. The second Amendment is commonly used when trying to set up the restrictions and rules of these gun control laws. There are a lot of regulations being set up and still are being made to “keep us safe.” Strict gun laws can be good for American citizens but they also can be life threatening in times. There is a never ending debate on gun control and Americans will always fight for their rights. The government should not be allowed to regulate the purchase on the owning of guns.

The shootings that has happened throughout the Unites States has created a great divide among Americans on what should our nation do to prevent further shootings from happening. Many people believe that forcing new laws on how people purchase weapons should require background checks. Gun Control in the United States of America is a topic that has had lots of criticism and support by many citizens. The critical people of this topic believe that the guns do not kill people, it is the people that kill people. The supporters of this topic believe that guns lead to violence and a feeling of power over others. They also believe that if guns were eliminated from the public, then violence and death would decrease heavily in this country. These two opposing views leave the federal government open to a decision on whether or not to abolish one of our Constitutional rights, or to keep allowing people the right to own a gun. There are many issues that need to be looked at in order to decide which laws are necessary.

The controversy with the Second Amendment is that it does not clarify who “the people” are. Therefore, leaving room for legislative bodies and courts to interpret and influence their decision on how laws become introduce and enforced. Therefore, if we let an individual interpret the Second Amendment we will get different opinions. For instance, we have the gun control activist, that believe that since there is not a militia, no individual should possess firearms.The activist back up their claims by stating that the possession of weapons make the country unsafe and puts children at risk children at risk of finding the weapon and accidentally shooting themselves or someone else. They also believe that only the police or government officials should have the right to carry weapons and that by banning guns it would minimizes the gang related shootings that take the lives of many innocent bystanders every day. On the other hand, we have the anti-gun control activists arguing that banning guns will not reduce crime instead it would leave law abiding citizens vulnerable to armed criminals. For instance, they mention that if convicted felons manage to get their hands on a weapon now, who says that by banning them is going to stop them from doing

     The Second Amendment to the United States constitution 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”(U.S. Constitution). The founding fathers included this in our bill of rights because they feared the federal government might oppress the population if the people did not have the means to defend

The majority of the American citizens believe that we should be able to own firearms for protection, leisure and sporting purposes. These people believe that denial of ownership of firearms infringes our Second Amendment right. The Second Amendment 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 Constitution of The United States of America). The primary objective of the Second Amendment of the Constitution is to preserve and guarantee the rights of individuals to keep and bear arms. There have been many questions brought up over the actual meaning of this Amendment. Some believe that even though this document emphasizes the need to have a militia, it is not required to be in a militia to exercise the right to possess a firearm. This right gives the citizen of the United States a certain security that other countries do not have. There are many that believe different in the meaning of this Amendment. They believe that the Amendment was written for security and protection of freedom in Colonial America and that the need for individuals to own a gun is absent present day. They

The United Sates has one of the highest rates of gun related violence. The major factors on gun violence are the powerful types of guns expressly designed for killing people and the lack of preventing all gun violence. America talks about death by gun violence. Gun control can come from all types of things in the world. 240,000 guns are given to minors without parents even knowing that they have one. The gun owners can sell a gun without having a background check and will not get in trouble for it. According to Gutierrez, “Anybody will sell you a gun…I mean no matter what, if you want a gun and you show them the money, and tell them you want to buy it, he’s going to definitely sell it to you” (3). The U.S. should have stricter gun control laws

Gun control is a debate topic that comes up every election and when a major event happens that involving guns. Pro-gun lobbyists say “Guns don’t kill people, people kill people” [ (Hagan, 2007) ] the anti-gun advocates want to take away the right to bear arms. This topic has no right or wrong answer it is a preference of the individual. This is why gun control is such a fiercely debated topic.

I got a golden ticket. I’m not worthy. To all of my dear Liberal friends who still believe that putting even more restrictions on guns is the proper response to the mass shootings that happen in America I am writing to tell you that you are wrong. I understand how putting restrictions on guns sounds like a good idea, but it isn’t. Germany which is considered the strictest country on gun control laws has suffered yet another attack upon its populace using guns. A gunman armed with a handgun shot and killed nine civilians and injuring another twenty-one in a MacDonald’s restaurant. Laws prohibiting law abiding citizens from owning guns will not stop Islamic terrorists or other criminals from obtaining firearms, and even if it could it would not

There were 327 public mass shootings within America in 2015, in all killing 475 innocent people and even wounding 1,870. As of present day America, this issue has began to exacerbate. Since the past couple of years not only has the number of gun ownership grown, but so have the crime rate within using guns have increased. Numerous people have advocated to slowly recover this issue. Which is why public gun laws should have a greater amount of restrictions because more controlled laws would reduce gun deaths, in addition to that stricter public gun laws would prevent the number of legally owned guns stolen by criminals and would reduce societal costs that are associated with gun violence.

Over time politicians are always looking for new things to make laws about and regulate. This is no different with guns. Overall the democratic party tends to be in favor of stricter gun laws, with wanting more regulations placed on legal ownership of firearms rather than criminals. The Republican party has tended to be less focused on restricting gun ownership. The first politician that comes to mind when I think of gun regulations is Kevin de Leon from the California Senate. He is very left wing and very uninformed when it comes to guns. Just last June, Mr. Leon wanted to pass 11 more restrictions or laws on legal gun owners. “Large ammunition clips: Bans possession of ammunition magazines that hold more than 10 bullets.
