The Pros And Cons Of Gun Rights

As opponents against gun control have numerous reasons as to why guns should not be restricted amongst the American public but pointed to the Second Amendment to the United Constitution as the main reason why gun control should not be permitted in the U.S. However, what these critics do not want to accept is that since 1980, several crucial events in the United States have led to excessive gun control movement. Remarkably, it takes a lot more than one appalling catastrophe to influence Americans that more attention should be taken into monitoring the number and types of guns the public can get access to. However, some major shooting calamities in the U.S such as assassination attempts on President Reagan’s, Columbine, Virginia Tech, and Sandy Hook have all triggered majority of Americans to take a stance in favor of gun control legislation. The first key push in the direction of the gun control movement begun during the era of Ronald Reagan presidency since he happened to be of one of the most “pro gun” presidents in American history.

Gun Control is very controversial many people believe that there is nothing wrong with the gun control laws in place right now. The Republican Party and The Democratic Party has different views on Gun Control. Many tragedies have occurred such as school and mass shootings. This year gun-related shootings have increased. The Second Amendment is the right to bear arms which can be interpreted differently by others. Specifically, the 2nd Amendment 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. Gun Control Laws should be strict throughout all states in order to insure the safety of others.

In recent years, violence has affected society immensely; in the Las Vegas community specifically, bullying, and crimes involving deadly weapons have been detrimental to the hearts of families.

What does the second amendment mean in the constitution? The second amendment is about Gun Control. What is Gun Control? Gun Control is your rights to own and use a gun. Guns are very dangerous and they are a serious issue. There are tons of accidental deaths caused by incorrect use of safety rules. What does the second amendment say about gun control in the constitution? The amendment states 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”. But do we all agree on this amendment?

“Guns don't kill people; people kill people.” With the United States having the highest gun ownership rate in the world, controversial conversation arises between two groups of people: pro-gun and pro-gun control. Gun control laws should be much more stern as it could decrease gun fatalities in public mass shootings, defeat gun purchasing loopholes, and promote general peacefulness, so that Americans will feel safer.

In this paper I discuss why gun control laws are working. I am in favor of very strict gun control and removal of guns from the hands of criminals. I n the paper, I discuss some of the most objectionable practices:

Gun Control is a set of laws that provide limitations on gun ownership by civilians. Gun control has been argued over many years due to advances in technology with weaponry, and whether it is actually necessary to keep the limitations. One major example people are for gun control are the previous acts of terrorism on the United States. People are concerned that background checks are not being performed or not examined deep enough. Background checks one possible way to keep gun control under fair limits. Although the U.S government can not fully ban the ownership of weapons to civilians, there are some limitations that can be questionable. Limitations such as gun modifications to make them more lethal seems like a limitations that should not even exist. But because of recent events

A story the world has been talking about is the shooting in Virginia that killed two people and injured another. People with a mental illness should not be allowed to have guns. If people can be tested by their doctor to see if they possibly have some type of mental related issue and they come back positive then they should be prohibited from having guns period. According to the passage Guns and Mental Health “…an individual is prohibited from buying or possessing firearms for life if he/she has been ‘adjudicated as a mental defective’ or ‘committed to a mental institution’” (4). As a nation, we should have learned our lesson by now, and we should be doing something to prevent this from reoccurring again.

Gun control refers to the laws and policies that regulate things related to citizens using firearms. Gun control laws are a very controversial topic and has created many arguments on social, political, legal, or ethical perspectives. The United States has separated into two groups: the people that think gun laws are not the problem and then the people that think gun laws need to change. Gun laws do not need to change they need to enforce background checks and prevent the mentally ill from possessing weapons.

Time is running out, let the government know that you do not want semi-automatic firearms to be controlled based on how fast they fire.

America has recently taken part in a lot of shootings. The culprits were either arrested or killed and a few went as far as taking their lives before the police could even respond to the scene. America as a whole keeps losing children, brothers, sisters, parents, and friends from this ongoing issue. With all these shootings looming above us, is gun control necessary?

Today it is believed that gun control is essential. But, is it truly? It is believed that society needs this control this in order to feel safe and secure. Gun control was developed with the founding fathers, and has since been modified with new laws and regulations due to a various events in today's society. And while there are many pros and cons to regulating firearms, there will always be those that oppose it.

Gun control is one of the most controversial topics in modern society. After the recent increase of shootings, threats, and events involving guns, as well as the upcoming elections, the public has been in uproar over the laws involved with guns. President Obama has recently made many speeches regarding this current issue. Many controversial questions still remain unanswered. Should the purchase of guns be more controlled? Should guns be allowed in certain areas? Should gun laws and amendments to the Constitution be tampered with? These events and questions have sparked many individuals to create photos, articles, speeches, and other forms of rhetoric to try and let their voice be heard.

One maybe scared to use a gun but some use guns for their protection. This is because one can not trust everyone due to all the crimes that have been going on. Gun control is a major topic for people with concealed weapons permits. There has been many shooting and major threats that could have been stopped if someone had a concealed weapon. Some people are demanding for schools to have a security guard or a police officer to be on campus while children are in school as other people don't want guns on campuses due to the unknown of what that person could do with the gun. As one can see from these examples, gun control on concealed weapons will be hard to get everywhere due to controversy of the people in the areas.

Gun control regulation is a set of laws and policies designed to regulate the manufacturing, sale, purchase, and use of guns by civilians. Gun control has been a dividing topic, especially over the last decade among Americans. Firearms are a staple of American culture and society. Many Americans own firearms, for recreational purpose in the form of hunting and/or target shooting. Many also own guns as a method of safety and protection in a society characterized by violence. However, we continue to see a trend in mass shootings were guns are too frequently, being used for senseless violence. The mass shootings in Las Vegas and Texas have prompted the country to revive the tireless debate about gun violence and whether we can combat it with gun regulations. The issue specifically stems from the frequency of gun violence in the U.S. The issues of gun violence continue to be fought by both gun rights activist and gun control groups alike both groups lobbying Congress to craft legislation in their respective favors. The debate continues on whether laxer or stricter gun control laws will help protect citizen and limit mass shooting and violent crimes. In my paper, I will show both the pros and the cons of gun control arguing for both opposing views. I will do this using background information as well other supporting facts and evidence. I will conclude my paper with a possible suggestion of solutions to these issues.
