Pros And Cons Of Gun Control

The United States has 88.8 guns per 100 people, or about 270,000,000 guns, which is the highest total and per capital number in the world. 22% of Americans own one or more guns (35% of men and 12% of women). America's pervasive gun culture stems in part from its colonial history, revolutionary roots, frontier expansion, and the Second Amendment, which 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." Proponents of more gun control laws state that the Second Amendment was intended for militias; that gun violence would be reduced; that gun restrictions have always existed; and that a majority of Americans, including gun owners, support new gun restrictions.

You’re in your house and someone breaks in. Oh no, gun control laws said you can’t have a gun! You have no protection, so you’re dead within seconds. This is why the U.S. does not need tougher gun control laws. We need guns for protection, we should have the right to conceal one at all times, and the second amendment says we can have a firearm.

Gun control is the set of laws or policies that regulate the sale, manufacture, transfer, possession, modification, and/or use of firearms by civilians. Are the United States’ current laws for gun control effective? Is the U.S. in need of reform or enactment of new laws? Alarming statistics indicate that the status quo is ineffective. Gun control laws in the US should be stricter and uniform since there are an unusually high quantity of gun-related incidents in the U.S.. Additionally, countries that have more rigorous gun control are shown to have drastically lower gun-related death rates. Through stricter gun control, we may protect the country and its future generations from people who should not be able to obtain firearms.

Gun control has been debated quite a bit over the last couple of years due to recent domestic terrorist attacks. These attacks have caused political views on gun control to waver, regardless of our Second Amendment rights. Sociologist would see gun control as a way to divide our country by our belief. For example, a conservative would stand firm with their belief in the Second Amendment, where as a liberal would demolish those rights in an instant, if given the opportunity. The issue with gun control is that the government makes it more difficult for citizens to buy guns for protection, when criminals would just steal a legal gun and kill someone if necessary. So the main purpose of gun control is not to take all the guns away.

un control is a very controversial topic especially in today's society; whether gun control is good or bad is a very talked about subject especially when it comes to the United States. This is a very touchy subject because guns are a part of a lot of people's daily lives. People that are anti gun control believe that no one should be able to put any restrictions on guns. They believe that people should be able to buy a firearm just like a pair of boots or a tool. They also believe that if someone were able to take away the firearms from the law abiding citizens that just leaves firearms in the hands of people that do not abide by the law and leaves them defenseless. In 1791 our founding fathers gathered and ratified the Second amendment. The

The right to bear arms is guaranteed in the constitution by the Second Amendment. Liberals are looking to amend the constitution any way they can. They want to ban handguns or at least restrict sales. Studies have shown that gun control cannot stop people from committing the crime.

Gun Control has been a controversial issue in the United States for a long period of time. There are two sides to this debate, the pro-gun lobbyist who believe they should have the right to exercise the 2nd Amendment right which states that the Federal Government does not have the right to infringe the people from keeping and carrying a firearm. The Anti-gun lobbyist wants stricter run regulation or even ban gun sales all together. This essay will be analyzing the laws regarding gun regulations through the history of the United States. The essay will also look into the 2nd Amendment rights while also giving it a definition.

The debate over gun control in the United States been a imposing issue over the past years. This ongoing argument has caused many families tragedy and heartbreak that can never be undone. Unfortunately, we cannot go back and change past mistakes, but we can help the future generation not have to relive past experiences.

According to the second amendment we are entitled to the right to own firearms.This topic has been in a constant debate about the problems of gun control and gun rights.The first three words in the constitution is “We the people” ,this means that the authors of the constitution believed that they were part of a group known “The people”. According to the second amendment two groups are mentioned The mithila and The people it's possible that the militia is a branch of the group The people ,this means that there is people in the group the mittha and vice versa so it's possible for the larger group to keep and bear arms. Having tighter restrictions on gun control limits us from maintaining self defence and deprives us from our right the 2nd amendment.

The creation of the Bill of Rights in 1791 sparked the beginning of the gun control debate. There are essentially two sides of history centered around this debate; one side argues for gun rights and the other side argues for gun control. “Gun rights” refers to the right to keep and bear arms, whereas “gun control” refers to the policies and laws that are enacted to regulate the manufacture, sale, possession, and use of firearms. America owns more guns than any other nation, therefore it is not surprising that America has the highest death rate due to gun violence in the world (Horsley, "Guns In America, By The Numbers."). This alarming fact supports the idea that stricter laws need to be enacted in the United States. This ongoing conflict

In the wake of numerous mass shootings within the United States, the highly controversial topic of gun control arises as a necessary discussion. Ever since the 18th century, Americans have been allowed the right to bear arms according to the second amendment. Along with the other amendments in the bill of rights, it was formulated in order to benefit the American society. That, of course, raises the question, has the allowance of the carrying guns been a positive or a negative in the US? If the answer to that question was based on the plethora of mass shootings we’ve observed in the recent years, the answer would have been that it’s results has been negative. However, most topics as debatable as these never have such a simple answer. A few avenues we could look at are, what are the pros and cons of gun control, if the second amendment has been favorable in America, who does it benefit, and if guns were banned, what would be the possible outcomes?

Gun control is a very highly debated topic in today’s day and age. With all the recent mass shootings, supporters call for more gun control and even for the government to ban "assault weapons". Supporters of a ban say that assault weapons are classified as weapons with one or more military features such as a high capacity clip or a folding stock (Lott 1). Opponents argue that this will take defense weapons out of the hands of law abiding but it will do little for stopping criminals. Mental health also plays a large role in the debate as almost 60% of mass shootings are conducted by someone who has history of being mentally ill (Lott 1). In this paper I will go further into the gun debate topic to try and further your knowledge on assault weapons.

One of the main problems that we have as a community is the right to obtain firearms and the use of these firearms. There are two sides of this argument and this project will try to focus on both sides. Alongside the idea of anti-gun control, people feel that there God given right to bear arms/2nd amendment is being manipulated. The argument begins to come when the weapon control activist begins to question our right to have and carry these firearms.

Some people like it and some people hate it. Gun control is not needed. I am against gun control. Taking guns away from people will not keep criminals from finding a way to get one.Therefore rendering people defenseless. More gun control leads to less suicides and homicides. Gun control laws do not prevent suicide,people will just find another way to kill themselves. If the government tries to take our guns away,the people with guns are not going to do it peacefully. People don’t understand the second amendment, they need to understand and then they will stop. If they take our guns away, then the government will take over.More gun control is not needed; education about guns and gun safety is needed to prevent accidental gun deaths. Strict

One of the most divisive topics in the United States is gun control. Gun control debates are fought with much concern and personal feelings. Most people get the wrong idea of guns due to the many different sources of media in today's society. On one side of the spectrum there are people in support of placing more restrictions on guns, whereas the other side, there are people fighting against the stricter regulation of guns. Gun control is a bad idea because the person behind the gun is responsible for the gun's actions, the less guns in the public hands, the more crime there is, and banning guns prevents people and cops from having their own means of self-defense.
