Purpose Of The Declaration Of Gun Control

Imagine being held up at gunpoint in the middle of the night. This is by far one of the most terrifying experiences any human being can experience. At that point, your life is within another human beings hands, and your life hangs in the balance of whether he or she pulls the trigger or not. No one should ever have to worry about enjoying their evening with the possibility of a mentally unstable individual attempting to take their own life away. This is why gun control is a crucial debate within our society. Today, my colleagues and I will inform you on the importance of gun control, historical events that further increase the need for gun control, and ways California has already taken steps to further increase safety for our society.

Although the 2nd Amendment only contains one sentence, the interpretation of it can be misconstrued if the use of critical thought is not applied during the analysis. Supporters of gun control argue that the ambiguous language in the 2nd Amendment leads to confusion about the interpretation. That in itself warrants further discussion about rewriting the 2nd Amendment or simply eradicating it. Also, the provision is outdated and no longer coincides with the times. In regards to the addition of “well regulated militia,” guns were meant to protect people from tyranny and any form of militarized government suppression. With that said, firearms should alternatively be restricted from other uses with

“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.” In our political climate today, there is an ongoing debate on the meaning of the second amendment. In particular, much controversy centers upon whether we should make gun control laws more strict like the laws in DC, or if we should make laws to encourage and embrace American citizens to own firearms and carry them in public, similar to laws in Vermont. In fact, some citizens wonder why we even have the second amendment in the first place.

“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.” This is the second amendment, the right to bear arms. Throughout history, it has been, seen as one of the most controversial and significant pieces of text in the United States Constitution with many debating over its meaning, context, and role in modern society. Since its ratification, Americans have been arguing over the amendment's meaning and interpretation. One side interprets the amendment to mean it provides for collective rights, while the opposing view is that it provides individual rights. Although the meaning of the second amendment continues to be a hot-button issue for both sides of the aisle one thing is certain, the role that it plays in the American way of life and the lives that it has affected remains a critical aspect of

Gun regulation has been a controversial topic since they were first established as a weapon. People for and against gun regulation provide strong arguments for their side. Gun regulation has fluctuated over time due to changes in office. Being a democracy prevents us from having consistency. As a nation we continue to change regulations on guns because of the different views our democracy allows us to have. The main aspects pose the most problems in gun control are violence, illegal sale of guns, and mental health checks.

Control is bad. The more control there is the less freedom we have. There are a lot of people that may say that gun control works, the simple fact is that those people do not know the difference between an assault weapon and an assault rifle. A assault weapon is a term used to describe a weapon that shoots one bullet per pull of the trigger, a assault rifle is a rapid fire, automatic weapon designed for the military use and sometimes confused for an assault weapon. Why would we listen to someone who does not have any knowledge about anything on the topic that they are trying to argue.

- For decades gun control has always been a very controversial issue in America. The Second Amendment states it is an individual's right to bare arms and by having stronger laws on guns, that would only be taking their right away, However, we have seen violent crimes rise due to guns, we have seen many people lose their lives and get hurt. Americans should be for gun control because it can help prevent school shootings, stronger regulations can help stop gun loopholes, and stronger laws can make it harder for people that have a bad record to get a gun. With the enormous amount of violence in today's society, individuals need to take a stand demanding stricter regulations on guns.

back ground check before someone sells the gun. No matter what type of laws you put on criminals

Gun control matters to me because I enjoy shooting guns and I believe it is a responsibility to to own a firearm. The most popular saying when it comes to gun control is “ Gun’s don’t kill people, people do. Which is very true, if you lay a gun down on a table it’s not gonna shoot by it’s self, a person has to pull the trigger. I believe the government shouldn't try and take away firearms from responsible owners and if you have a good background you should be able to own a firearm of your choice. An example of a gun control interest group is the “Gun owners of America”

Admittedly, this is true that even criminals attempt to buy a gun from legal gun dealers by knowing there is going to be a background check. As a matter of fact, according to a data, 76,000 attempting cases by false personal information took place in 2010 referred by FBI, and only 44 out of 76,000 cases was prosecuted by the Justice Department (Webster, 14). Nevertheless, background checks have a vital importance in this fight, because over 2 million gun sales has been blocked in 2010 thanks to background checks (Webster, 22). To enhance the efficiency of background checks, first, the personal information, which is submitted by a buyer during a gun purchase, should be shared with federal officials that are accounted of the national security like FBI. After a profound research about the buyer, the selling transaction should be permitted. In other words, someone that wants to obtain a gun should not be allowed to get the gun in the same day. Probably after 5 or 6 days from the first application date, a gun should be delivered its buyer in case that a confirmation is enabled by security

Buying a gun legally in the US is fairly easy, it is easy for anyone to get their hands on a weapon. “every place of mass killing, where some crazy person, some lunatic, someone who thinks he’s got the thumbs-up from God, had the legal right to get a gun, often an assault rifle, a weapon of war, and then just shoot away”(Cohen). All you need to purchase a gun is an ID and completing some forms, there are no strict restrictions on who can buy a gun. Even if you don’t buy a gun directly from the gun store, there are still ways to get one. There are many different loopholes such as pawnbrokers who has licenses to buy sell fire arms. During a gun show, some sales do not require a license nor a background check or Passing down your gun to your family members or friends also do not require any background check. “Laws in more than 30 states allow those convicted of misdemeanor domestic violence crimes to buy and use guns” (Chamlee). These loopholes makes

Gun-control, it's a topic that has been argued for quite some time now. And in the last couple weeks it's been blowing up. After the Parkland school shooting on February 14th, 2018 the United States was filled with shock. There was an uproaring of people who believed that guns should be banned and they stormed the capital trying to start a movement. The two political parties that are mostly involved in this are the Liberals and Conservatives. Most liberals believe that gun should be completely banned, at least automatic rifles (which they are). This caused major controversy in the United States because the people who own guns don't want them taken away. Conservatives believe that taking away the right to own a gun won't help at all, and they’re kind of right. Most mass shootings that occurred in the

One of the most controversial topics in the United States is gun control. It is clearly written in the Second Amendment of the Constitution that the people will have the right to bear arms. Over the years more now than ever people have been misusing those firearms and have been harming others with them. Currently The government is trying to regulate the sale, distribution, and ownership of guns because of this very reason. Some of the arguments being made by the politicians is simply if the government has the right to be able to control, and if it does, the effectiveness of the public policy to regulate guns. The importance of gun control as a health issue is a necessity. The United States has the 31st highest gun violence rate in the world

Gun control in the United States has been a subject that many most likely will argue about. In the field I hope to enter into, as an event and security operations manager, you feel as though it’s your fault when something horrific and uncontrollable happens in your arena or building. 31% of global mass shootings occur in the United States (Fox, 2017). This percentage gives the US an idea of how much people are affected by gun control and how much fear is put into the lives of everyday Americans. Does this statistic make people afraid to leave their homes everyday? Or? Should this statistic help one see that there’s always some type of risk taken everyday even if it doesn’t involve gun violence. Should security be heightened when a large population is going to be attending a sporting event or a concert? I, myself truly believe that it is not the arenas responsibility to think the worst in different situations and that security protocol does not need to be heightened when it is already obtained in a way that makes all guests and workers feel safe.

The second amendment goes like this, 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. This amendment means that American citizens have the right to have and use guns and other weapons as long as there being used respectively. The purpose of my speech today is to tell you why the government should not increase gun control laws. First of all, guns aren’t the real killer and taking guns away would take away an option for self protection. A criminal is defined as someone who has committed a crime. A gun is defined as a something that uses bullets and makes loud noises. Although the gun is being used to commit the crime it can’t pull its own trigger. Guns don't kill people; people kill people. The fact is that criminals break the laws, even though they exist. A stone-cold criminal won’t suddenly change just because there are new laws about what they're doing wrong. According to The Great Gun Control Fallacy, Australia has issued a gun ban which didn’t turn out too well. It resulted in the armed robberies going up 69%, assaults with guns going up 28%, gun murders going up 19%, and home invasions going up 21%. Thomas Sowell said that, “While gun ownership doubled in the twentieth century, the murder rate decreased.” People tend to feel more protected if they own a gun. Statistics from the Pew Research Center show that guns are, on average, used for self defense 2.5 million times a year.
