The Benefits Of Gun Courts

Furthermore, more gun laws would not stop a criminal from possessing a gun. Criminals already don 't obey the law. Background checks are an absolute must. Background checks should prevent a gun from getting in the wrong hands of the wrong person. Many criminals clan they like the gun control laws because it leaves the victim helpless and without a gun. If every home had a gun, less criminals feel power over victims by possessing a gun. By everyone having a gun, it equalizes the un equal.

Guns and weaponry have always been a major part of the cultures of the world since the beginning of time. For the United States of America, gun use can be traced back to the colonial days, our revolutionary roots. They have helped the United States turn the table specifically in times of dire need such as the Revolutionary War. Not only have advances in weaponry influenced the U.S., they have also helped to shape events across the globe. In 1791, this was understood by the Founding Fathers while writing the Constitution, which can be seen in the Second Amendment: “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”[1]. With the advancement of guns specifically, there has been a rise in mass shootings, casualties, crime and controversy that has begun to split the United States. All a person has to do is turn on the television to a news channel, and at any given time, heartache, most often linked to guns, can be found. Some cry for a need for better gun regulation or sometimes complete abolishment for recreational use, while others cling to their weapons with claim of self-defense and economic profit. Violent crimes have been on the rise years; there has been an estimated 1.2 billion crimes of violence that occurred in the United States alone [2]. One thing is certain: gun trade and regulation boosts the economy. Last year, 301,

The court process, probation and corrections will be affected as the need for alternative punishments will be necessary, however the main purpose will remain the same with a system wide focus on rehabilitation. A specialized juvenile court is best suited for deciding the fate and needs of juvenile offenders. The court will need to provide a sanction for the rehabilitation programs that best address the juvenile’s issues in lieu of or in tandem with the punishment that matches the crime. Juvenile probation will require ramping up as the case load will drastically increase as probation would be a necessary punishment to fulfill the need for victim justice.

All that should happen is certain types of guns shouldn't be accessible to the public. For example, a war zone gun like an M-16 should not be available to the general public because it is not used to hunt and is not a reasonable gun to carry simply to bare arms. Gun control would also put more restrictions on who can purchase a gun, because some people are not in the right state of mind to own a gun. Manufacturers might also be required to make all guns child proof. It's simple, if guns are available to everyone and anyone, gun violence will not be taken as seriously as it should be. Also, while more gun legislation is needed, the already existing gun laws on the state and national levels need to be strictly enforced. For example, it is a national law that in order to purchase a gun, a background check is required, but not all states enforce this law properly.

Overall, specialty court programs are better than the traditional retributive justice courts. Decisions are mostly based on therapeutic approaches and problem-solving ideas rather than “just deserts.” Clients appear to have more say in the procedures and take responsibility for his or her actions. Some clients that were sanctioned knew it was coming and often walked to the jury box before the judge even sanctioned him or her. In other words, some clients cooperated with the system instead of fighting

Problem solving courts focus on social concerns like addiction, domestic violence, mental health issues, and prostitution. Specialty courts claim to cure addiction, address intimate violence, prevent recidivism, reduce costs, and save lives. Specialty courts will play a major role in the future when it comes to court processing. By having specialty court

The Second Amendment of the United States Constitution reads that: “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.” According to Nelson Lund, “Modern debates about the Second Amendment have focused on whether it protects a private right of individuals to keep and bear arms, or a right that can be exercised only through militia organizations like the National Guard,” however, this question did not come to people’s attention long after the Bill of Rights were adopted. Although there has been a lot of controversy over whether keeping the Second Amendment would be beneficial, many believe that getting rid of it would not be a massive step forward compared to where it stands now. Stricter gun control may slow down the likelihood of people obtaining guns, but it will not reduce the amount of gun violence that happens throughout the world. What outcomes do people believe will happen if they take away our gun rights? While the Second Amendment helps in preventing the number of crimes from increasing, it has been found that armed citizens are very helpful in reducing crime. For each additional year that a concealed handgun law is in effect, the homicide rate declines by 3 percent, rape by 2 percent, and robberies by over 2 percent, according to John Lott, author of “More Guns, Less Crime: Understanding Crime and Gun Control Laws.” However, having armed citizens walking out and about it makes it very difficult for policemen to identify the criminals from the responsible citizens with legal firearms.

Gun laws will not stop crime from happening. The criminals who want to use guns for their crimes will simply buy the guns illegally. The gun laws that some people would want in place would simply take gun rights or some form of gun rights away from law-abiding citizens. This will not stop criminals from obtaining guns. “According to a Bureau of Justice Statistics May 2013 report, 37.4% of state prison inmates who "used, carried, or possessed a firearm when they committed the crime for which they were serving a prison sentence" obtained the gun from a family member

Imagine more school shootings because someone had access to automatic weapons and big mags. With gun control there would be less shootings in general, due to the inaccessibility to automatic weapons.

Gun control should be implied more than it is now. More gun laws should be created in order to tame society. Americans own over 300 million guns. According to (Everitt,Ladd) the author of the article “Does the U.S. Need Tougher Gun-Control Laws?” There are 99 gun deaths a day and some who committed the crime were not eligible to obtain or carry a weapon. More teens are being killed with guns than any other crime. Teens are not eligible to obtain guns due to the age requirement that is 21 years of age with a background check. There are gun show loopholes were 18 year olds can go and buy a gun without a license and background check. “The major cities chiefs association endorses closing the gun show loophole” according to Richard Perez-Pena the

It has been statistically proven that those who have committed previous crimes or misdemeanors are more likely to commit future crimes with a gun (Barrett). While there are laws that prevent certain criminals from buying or owning guns, there are few. Also, many criminals find a way to steal legally owned guns. While this is not the owners fault since they were law-abiding citizens, the criminal was still able to get access to a gun, especially if that gun was previously owned by a family or friend. Stricter gun laws would make it harder for criminals to get guns which would help decrease the number of burglaries, thefts, and homicides that occur in the United States. Even though adding stricter gun laws towards criminals can help the crime and violence rate, it is still not going to prevent others from using it to commit a crime. People who are committing a crime for the first time are still a problem. They may have legally acquired their gun , but it is still being used for a crime. In 2012, 49 of the 62 guns used in mass shootings were obtained legally (Barrett). These are the people that lawmakers need to watch out

Gun control is an ongoing topic. Many people died from guns and many wish to have tighter gun control laws. On the other hand it would seem to be an infringement on the second amendment and take away protection. Getting rid of guns would be too difficult as criminals would continue to have ways to get and maintain guns.

There is a raging battle in the United States court rooms extending all the way to many communities throughout the US. That battle, or to be more exact, question is, “would stricter gun control laws be beneficial to the United States?” There are two perspectives on the ever-continuing question, one being that stricter gun control would be beneficial and cause less harm to citizens, and the contrasting view is that it is a right to be able to own guns, and that they are used for protection and recreational purposes.

Gun control would reduce the rate of homicide and gun control would surely reduce crime. It will place qualifications for people who are eligible to have a gun. That would lead to less people having guns and only the more responsible people in the world owning guns. I believe this would reduce both crimes and deaths. In an article, “The Facts That Neither Side Wants to Admit about Gun Control”, by Justin King, acknowledges, “Australia enacted its gun ban in 1996. Murders have basically run flat, seeing only a small spike after the ban and then returning almost immediately to preban numbers” (King). Gun control will help crime rates and homicide rates drop. Guns are very powerful weapons and should not be in the hands of just anyone. If United States can have strict rules about the selling of guns, like other countries do then it will surely reduce crimes. Many

With or without guns people are going to continue being violent. The government can reduce shootings deaths by imposing restrictions that are common sense on gun access that does not violate the Second Amendment. Furthermore, imposing strict restrictions will only benefit criminals by taking away bear arms for those who could eventually save someone’s life. (“Gun Control Laws”). Gun control laws have been a big argument between Democrats and Republicans because of their beliefs. People for gun control laws believe that it would not save lives, it would not prevent school shootings, and it would not help self-defense laws.
