Gun_Control

Gun Control 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 relation to 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. As American citizens, we have more rights and freedoms than any other group of people in the world. The founders of this country established these freedoms because they had previously lived in countries where the people did not have as many rights. One of these rights is stated in the Second Amendment to the Constitution, which says, “the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” But over the years various laws and regulations have infringed upon this right. guns, gun, people, amendment, right, second, laws, crime, citizens, should, rights, firearms, control, types, states, arms, purchase, person, keep, firearm, constitution, certain, bear, argument, weapons, self-defense, able, violence, regulations, program, out, military, even, country, citizen, case
