Should Gun Laws Be Outlawed?

Guns have been in our lives even before the immigrant's colonized the United States, but in the past few years, there have been many shootings. There have been reasons for why they happen like illness and mass murder, but some people just think that guns have been the main reason behind the shooting. Most all people believe that guns are always the problem. But as people don’t know what should or is going to happen to guns in America over time. As more shooting happens in the year that is to come.

More gun laws would have a negative effect on shootings and crime rates. Stricter gun laws would not prevent people from getting guns, would not prevent killings, and would not fare well with the people of the United States. Strict gun laws would only prevent law-abiding citizens from getting guns, and criminals would still be able to get them. Crime and shooting rates do not go down after increase in gun-restrictive laws are passed. People in the United States have the right to defend themselves from harm, and the 2nd Amendment right to own firearms.

What would the world be like if guns were banned? Would chaos break out, or would the United States have peace? The Second Amendment grants U.S. Citizens the right to keep and bear arms. While some people believe banning guns will make the world safer, others believe the world will only be in more danger. Prohibition did not work for alcohol and drugs, so why would it work for guns? Guns should not be banned because crime rate would increase, people need guns for self-defense, and it will eliminate some of the citizens’ rights.

Some people believe that the United States is safer when citizens are not allowed access to guns. The amount of organized crime would go down because all of their power is derived from their use of firearms and that is a significant amount of their profit. Gun control laws protect children and families; Moms Demand Action, a grassroots group founded in response to the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School, believes guns in America are creating a public health crisis that is attacking children, citing statistics

“Right to bear arms” from second amendment in the Constitution was adopted in 1791, this is 21st century, given the statistics of how high gun violence in USA has gone up compared to its neighbor country, it is about time to do something about it. Although guns can be used in self-defense, according to Law Center To Prevent Gun Violence Statistics, the evidences shows that the presence of guns in people’s home make them more vulnerable. Statistics shows that guns kept in the home are more likely to be involved in a fatal or nonfatal unintentional shooting, and criminal assault or suicide attempt than to be used to injure or kill in self-defense. Gun is more likely to be used to vent frustration by killing or injuring an innocent person in the

Mass shootings and suicides have become a serious occurrence from yearly to daily basis. With all these casualties, most of them were unarmed and killed by some sort of weapon. The outcomes of these events would have been different if they were carrying a gun. The possibilities of protecting themselves would be greater than if they did not. Obviously, having a legal weapon can help protect you and your love ones from a dangerous situation. Throughout history, men have been using and keeping weapons in their homes, which the 2nd Amendment claim that citizens have the right to bear arms. Gun control laws should not be prohibited, but in this case, more strict.

I think it is good idea to have stricter gun law on the country; it will reduce the gun violence. Gunshot which included: suicide, homicide, accident. According to article, Should More Gun Control Laws Be Enacted? shows that “the United States has 88.8 guns per 100 people, or about 270,000,000 guns, which is the highest total and per capita number in the world” (http://gun-control.procon.org/). In the second amendment of United States, people have right to buy a gun to protect themselves if they take certain class and pass the test. The main problem is that do people really use the gun for self-protection or they use for gun violence? In the CCN article, Death and guns in the USA: The story in six graphs points out that “In the U.S., guns

Every day some news related to gun violence are being heard all over the world. Shooting in driveway, public places, schools, homicide and suicide are some of different types of gun violence. Shooting on people and killing them is a big issue in the world and different comments are provided about that. One of the most important of them is about gun control laws. Stingl (2013) says “The term gun control as it is used in the United States refers to any action taken by the federal government or by state or local governments to regulate, through legislation, the sale, purchase, safety, and use of handguns and other types of firearms by individual citizens.” According to this idea gun control laws should be

Did you know that all handguns are semi-automatic? This means that all that stands between you and death is the pull of a trigger, but we can put an end to this. You hear in the news more than 50% people of the time getting hurt or even dying because of guns. There are many laws about gun control but some of the laws need to be taken in action. Gun Control laws should be stricter because still some guns are available to the public and children might pick them up, the wrong people still have a lot of access to them, and lastly if gun control laws become stricter the risk of innocent people getting hurt by guns is less.

Ten more people fall victim to another public shooter, and another gun control debate comes spiraling from the after math as laws against guns try to be placed. Is this really the best way to deal with the issue? No. The issue is people are killing people not guns are killing people. Society wants to ban guns because people are afraid when in actuality guns themselves are not the things that need to be banned. Even then do you have any proof the gun laws actually lower crime? Gun laws also go directly against the 2nd Amendment and it takes away one of the best means of self-defense from invaders and criminals. Therefore gun laws should not be put in place. Guns don’t kill people, people kill people. We have a right to bear arms and is not something that can just be taken away.

Did you know that there are approximately 4.5 million firearms sold in the United States each year, and an estimated 2 million second hand firearms are sold each year? (USA Gun Violence Statistics) According to the IANSA (International Action Network on Small Arms of the United Nations), in the United States there are more than ten thousand gun homicides annually (IANSA). These statistics should shock every American. I believe the argument may be summed up by looking at this issue from three perspectives, 1) tighter gun ownership laws have yet to reduce gun violence anywhere they have been enacted, 2) the right for people to defend themselves is paramount, and 3) it is a right provided by the second amendment of the constitution,

It is critical that we stand up to what we believe in, especially when it comes to gun laws. Gun laws are a very important thing for us.

5. The vast majority of gun owners are not all crackpots. It’s just those few who are mentally ill and take a gun and kill innocent people. Most people keep a gun

Mrs. Fiorini & Mrs. Bollman English I 2nd Hour GUN CONTROL There has been a long debate about gun control in the United States. Some people believe that guns should be outlawed because they are dangerous. The Second Amendment states that everyone has the right to own a gun. The right to own firearms was included in the U.S. Constitution to be certain that citizens were given this individual freedom. The Peu Foundation reports that 79% of males and 80% of female gun owners say that they need a gun for self defense. If we have guns, we can protect ourselves from other people who have guns. However, it is reported that everyday fourteen American children or adolescents die in gun related incidents. American children murdered under the age of fifteen

The US is one of the most violent countries in the world due to the purchase of guns causing countless of robbery. In addition, the gun purchasing can cause hundreds of death in the US and across other countries. In my speech I will be talking about the purchase of guns should be illegal in the US, because gun purchasing increases the chance of robbery, when adults buy guns there children will have an easier access to guns, and it encourages people to believe they have the rights to use guns at any time.
