People Have The Right to Bear Arms!
There are a lot of people that don’t feel safe out there in the world when they are by themselves.The people need to have the right to Bear Arm in order protect themselves from all of the crazy violence that happens everyday out in the world. People need to have the right to bear arms for self defense in order to protect themselves from home invaders, and robberies, and rapist. The people of the Unites States have the right to feel safe in the world and they should not have to be scared if a shooting is going to happen or not. There has been a lot of random shooting throughout America, for instance a shooting just happen up in Organ at a community college, after the shooter killed and injured some of the college students in Organ he committed suicide.There is a lot more shootings that has happen in this past year, there has been 18 mass shootings in 2015 alone, According to the washingtonpost.com. So the people should have the Right to Bear Arms in the United States of America.
The Right to Bear arms was intended to protect us from the government. So the foundation for right to bear arms is that the government should not be allowed to take the right to bear arms away from us! Well how does this apply to us today? Well in order to purchase a gun you must to be 18 and you also can not have any felons of any kind, but when you purchase a gun you will get
I am a firm believer in one being able to protect themselves. As American citizens, we should have the right and freedom to choose bear arms as a form of self defense. I do believe that this right needs to be taken very seriously and responsibly. Enforcing the laws we have now on gun control will help to keep others safe and make it harder for criminals to obtain a weapon. Before the government decides to uphold the strict interpretation of the Second Amendment, they should take everything into account, including the freedom
The founding fathers of America declared that everyone has the right to bear arms, but there is evidence to prove otherwise. Mass shootings, school shootings, and gun violence in general are all caused by people with guns. Eliminating the one thing that these things have in common is the only way to prevent more violence from happening. The Second Amendment needs to be updated to current times. A country-wide gun control law needs to be put in its place in order to help prevent mass shootings and gun violence as a whole.
This nation was built on the right to bear arms, but this freedom is more controversial than ever. With all the school shootings and gun violence in America today at some point it may seem that just too take away all guns may be the answer to this problem. In defense, this is not the answer. If someone wants to commit a crime, gun laws will not stop them from obtaining the weapon. It is like a drug. Drugs are illegal, but every day you see someone either with, on, or recovering from a drug habit. What about for defense right to own guns to protect your family if part of your constitutional rights. Rights that are supposed
America’s gift to my generation is our rights. One right in particular is the second amendment of the constitution “The Right To Bear Arms”. The second amendment of the bill of rights guarantees the right to own firearms and use them. The second amendment was approved 8 years after the revolutionary war.The second amendment was created December 15 1791. The ten amendments were created so they wouldn’t be put in a situation where they were controlled by a tyrannical government again, and to set the foundation for our newly founded government. The ten amendments were written in independence hall in Philadelphia. The second amendment isn’t just referring to the use of a weapon as a means of hunting but to protect you or many persons if needed.
Americans have earn the right to protect their freedom due to the sacrifices made as a whole to created this country. One form of protection is the freedom to keep and bear arms. Today’s society is not safe where violent people exist that will attack and harm others. Crime is an obvious issue in society that people often fear the most. Yet there laws to form a peaceful and crime free area but , some people choose to go against the laws.Unfortunately now there are many violent crimes where majority of victims due to not having gun are left defenseless. Being defenseless leads people to either get severely injured or dead.
Across the United States of America a debate rages on daily, that debate is whether or not to allow the public to obtain and operate firearms. The right to bear arms has been fused together with American culture for hundreds of years. Many advocates for gun control are against citizens of the United States being able to possess and operate firearms, even though it is a necessary evil and is a right of every man and woman across the country. Gun control in the United States is a dangerous topic but one that needs to be addressed. American citizens have the right to bear arms, and the evidence is there to prove that it can be done effectively and safely.
A well-regulated militia necessary of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed. It isn't much, but the power in these words is what keeps this country free. It's what keeps the people in this country safe. Everyone has their own opinion on the subject, but the facts show that the right to bear arms benefits this country more than it hurts.
Imagine waking up in the middle of the night to a complete stranger who is in your house, threatening to harm you, and your family, and you cannot do anything about it. Imagine, not being able to go target shooting or hunting, because there are laws passed to prevent you from owning a firearm. The truth is, more and more people in this country are trying to restrict law-abiding people from owning firearms due to the overwhelming rise in gun related crimes. As law abiding citizens, the constitution gives us the right to bear arms. Whether it is for recreation or protection,
“The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed”. This line taken from the 2nd Amendment states to all who live under the governing power of the Bill of Rights as well as the Constitution of the United States of America, that their right to own and to operate a weapon can’t be taken away. It is a privilege to be able to bear arms, as some countries do not have the right to do so. We must understand that the 2nd Amendment is as important as any other amendment and we must protect our right to bear arms.
First of all, the right to bear arms is just because guns are weapons of self-defense, and can be used to prevent the
From other countries and in the eyes of foreigners and refugees, America is the land of the free and the home of the brave. With rights that are given to us, we are free to say anything we please; to not be searched or have things seized from us unreasonably; and the most important right, the one that defends all of the others, the right to keep and bear arms. Understanding the rights given by the 2nd amendment of our constitution has been a major issue in America, since the day it was written. This right lets us own our own weapons, and it should not be controlled by the government how many and what guns we can own. With modern technology, guns have become so much cheaper and accessible that some regulations must be put into place, and
The right to bear and keep arms comes from the Second Amendment adopted in 1791. There has been many shootings in U.S. history. One of the most frequent being the Las Vegas shooting killing 59 people and injuring 241. The deadliest shooting in modern U.S. Before that was the Virginia Tech massacre in 2007, only 10 years ago. The second deadliest modern shooting was only a year ago being the Orlando nightclub. Which scares me for what could happen in the future. People who are mentally ill are able to get guns when they should not. The CDC states that guns are responsible for 33,000 deaths a year in the U.S. with ⅔’s being suicides. For a bigger perspective how shootings are a problem here, it is shown that the U.S. is responsible for 31% of public mass shootings. Our homicide rate is ⅙ of Canada’s. These statistics should raise our concern on what type of people own gun and push for stricter regulations.
“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” (Bill of Rights). This is the 2nd Amendment of the United States Constitution. This is a document that grants all Americans certain inalienable rights. All citizens no matter their age or standing in society have some understanding of the Bill of Rights and the freedoms that it allows. One freedom that is granted to us, the right to bear arms, has become the center of a heated issue in today’s society and many years before. The majority of citizens have felt the impacts of guns, either positive or negative, during some point of their life. It is because of the fact that guns are a part of
Living a life in America, we all get to have all the rights that included in the Constitution. One of those was the Second Amendment which is the rights to bear arm, the purpose was to protect ourselves from danger but nowadays a lot of people have take advantage of it and use it in the wrong way. I believe our government need to have a strict limit on guns possession.
"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."-Declaration of Independence. This is the given right from the Second Amendment as a U.S. citizen. They have the right to bear arms, which means they can defend themselves, hunt, or shoot for fun. The United States should have the right to bear arms because it is a given right according to the constitution.
