Restrictions On Gun Control Laws

     Gun control is a very controversial issue among society at present. Many feel guns are the cause of a great amount of crime. This has been an especially popular topic recently in lieu of the shooting at Columbine and other high schools across the country. Are these crimes reason to take away our freedom to bear arms? I do not believe so. The average person uses guns mainly as a means of protection. If limitations are placed on guns, they will only stop the average American from obtaining a gun. The real criminals out there will still be able to obtain guns through the black market. Every American should have the right to protect them self.

Americans are faced with a big issue of violence in the streets, these streets where elderly people are beaten for their money and women are attacked and raped. Sadly, some people believe that the best way to deal with these violent occurrences is to pass gun control laws that take away legally owned guns from everyone. Not only does gun control end up disarming the innocent but it also violates the Second Amendment. By taking away guns from the American citizens, whom the Second Amendment bestowed onto us this act violates our rights. Unfortunately for those who have legally armed themselves for self-defense, gun control would eventually strip away their ability to fend for themselves. Gun control will also end up causing a rise in crime. By taking away arms from good law abiding citizens and leaving them defenseless, it makes things much easier for criminals by knowing that their victims are not armed. Although the gun ban would take away guns from stores, a criminal will find a way to get their hands on one, imagine that. Gun controls are taking away our rights as citizens. If a law abiding citizen happens to enjoy hunting, they will lose that right. Gun controls are also taking away weapons from citizens. Gun control is not having a positive effect on America because it violates the second amendment, takes away rights and it won’t reduce the crime rate.

On Wednesday June 18, 2015 nine shot dead at a historical black church in Charleston, South Dakota and only a month later on July 16, 2015 in Chattanooga, Tennessee with five dead leaving citizens devastated. The past year contains more than 350 mass shootings, averaging 1.02 shootings per day and continuous growing number of deaths, multiple mass shootings around the world leaving dozens of victims in its path. There is no exact definition of mass shootings, but most sources believe it is when four or more people are shot in one location. Citizens in America are easily able to obtain a gun and the growing issue is whether this should change and stronger laws in place. Although citizens believe gun control laws take away second amendment and right to protect themselves, mass shootings are increasing yearly and action needs to happen to prevent the next attack.

The rise in cases of gun violence and related incidences of assault has drawn the public to the issue of guns and gun control. Such has been evident within the spheres of politics especially with the last election period seeing the incumbent president Donald Trump suggesting on stringent gun control laws. However, despite the acknowledgment of the need to have better gun laws, much ground and consensus has never reached. Such, to an extent, contributed to the current lack of political goodwill within the country to have the necessary legislations enacted to facilitate the same on the controls (Grandy 23). Of the guns under question are the assault rifles. Like the military weapons, assault rifles have a destructive potential to causing

In about every nation, gun control has always been an issue of controversy. Gun control laws are quite different from country to country, each possessing different requirements, specifications, and ordinances, so on and so on. What will be examined are the specified gun control laws in three international countries, ranging from Canada, Australia, and Japan, as well as a comparison and contrast of the the similarities and unique differences toward American gun control laws and those in other countries, and finally, the effects of having loose gun control laws. Unlike America, these countries possess stricter laws regarding gun control.

would find a way to obtain a firearm regardless of the law. Crime rate does not originate from the accessibility of guns, but rather the actions of an individual that has disregard for life in today 's society. There will always be ways for the offender commit crimes with or without guns.

The issue of government regulation over firearm ownership is given through the protection of civil rights and liberties as written in the US. Constitution and bounds government to use its authority and resources to minimize loss of life and property (Johnson W. C., 2014). This is just as true as the 2nd Amendment, a secured civil right to bear arms. This is where the debate is centered on, the point of determining how much firearm regulation should government impose upon the people. Though the initial Amendments to the Constitution revolved around the rights of the individual, the task of government, through the Constitution, is to serve the general citizenry. The debate and struggle is more of a search for balance between

As a whole, guns do a lot of harm in this country and a lot of upright. However, I personally believe that guns should be allowed in this country, but with

The rule of law, gun control legislation, and public administration are intertwined on every level. The promulgation of every constitutional right afforded by the second amendment is being dissected following the recent tragedies in Nevada and Texas. Administrative law is the mechanism that controls governmental power given to administrative branches and agencies. Following the passage of the Administrative Procedure Act, the definition of “administrative law began a new journey. The shift from “public law” to the new state administrative procedure gives legitimacy and authority to state action (p. 90, Beckett, 2010). It is important to note that the three types of rules that govern the behavior of administrators, substantive regulations, interpretive rules, and procedural rules are all under current scrutiny as related to the issue of gun control legislation and public safety (p. 91, Beckett, 2010).

Within the last couple of months, gun control and gun control laws has been seen all over the news and all over social media. I decided that topic would be perfect for this essay While scrolling through Facebook, I came upon this meme and I knew right away it was the right meme for this paper. Within the last couple of months, we have had about two major mass shootings and they have had a huge impact over the nation. Society is wondering why the government is not doing much and why we are not seeing any changes with these laws. Most people are saying that we need to have stricter gun laws, but would that really change anything?

Guns have been in this country for years, you can’t just take them away. Gun Control should be enforced but it shouldn’t take away the right to bear arms. Gun laws should be there but for the criminal people. Gun control will please many people. Gun control may anger many people. Many accidents were caused from guns and gun control will help stop many of these accidents. Guns sometime have power over people and they can’t control what they are doing. Many people use guns for protect and/or hunting.

The United States has always been divided into to groups since the beginning of time. You have your conservatives on the right and your liberals on the left, you have those you like cheese and those who don’t. Somehow we have managed to make this system work. However every now then comes a problem that divides the country even more such as “Marriage Equality”, “ Abortion” and many more topics. Most recently Obama passed an executive action on gun control. It seems here that the debate is whether we should ban guns, regulate them more, or limit them. Many feel that is is an infringement on our second amendment right, while others feel we should regulate guns and who purchase them because they feel unsafe. The Obama Administration was adamant on gun control and what they planned to do. One of his actions was expanding background checks and how you purchases/sell off guns you already own. Guns have a bad connotation and you think of them as a weapon to kill, which many people do and sadly it is the number one way to end some ones life.

The new legislature that recently passed in Texas allows gun owners who are licensed to conceal carry (C.C. for short) the ability to have their concealed gun on their person while they are on the college campus including the ability to carry indoors. There are many concerns regarding gun laws, safety, and control that are making their way into the spotlight as a result of these new laws for gun owners. Given the fact that the right to carry a weapon is purely for protection of yourself, your family and your community there is no reason that guns should be restricted from being carried in any given environment, however there is good reason to place restrictions on who might be able to obtain one. Many of the concerns surrounding gun safety revolve around a number of statistics that are used by different groups in order to fuel their individual agendas. My intention here is to look at the laws and restrictions in Texas and to compare the rates of gun violence (including murder, suicide and accidents) to other states and countries in order to show you as a reader how responsible gun usage is a benefit to the community as well as to the individual and should be encouraged more than it is feared because it ensures not just personal safety, but the safety and liberty of our nation.

In the United States there are a lot of different views about guns and gun laws. As a hunter and outdoorsman, I own guns and use guns. As a gun owner, I believe there should be some laws and restrictions however not a ban. Some believe all guns are bad and the only solution to end gun violence is to ban all guns. However, people have to realize that most gun crimes are committed by stolen or illegal fire arms. If somehow I could change the way most view guns, and to help end the argument on the ban of firearms, it would be one less thing Americans have to argue about.

The United States has 88.8 guns per 100 people, which is the highest total in the world. The guns was first intended for hunting and self-protection. Later on, it was brought into the military for use. For that reason, people believe that guns can only be used in the military. Others say that the Second Amendment gives them the right to have guns and use it for protection. This was for if any person tried to attack them, they would have protection with them at all times. Later on, guns got used for the wrongs reasons. More crimes were being develop, like the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Now, people want more restrictions on gun ownership and how it should be used. If some restrictions were to be made, some say it will not make much of a difference. Guns use had lead to violence in the past, but also it coud be a good protection for humans against attackers.
