Gun control has been going on for around for years. Gun control laws should be more enacted in the United States of America since citizens are having the potential of using the weapon as violence throughout the community or state and or the country. The 2nd Amendment of the U.S. Constitution state that the second 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.” Which was adapted in in December 15,1791 the purpose of the second amendment was that the government would not make a tyrannical government.
In the article History of gun-control legislation states that “Roosevelt wins approval of the National Firearms Act of 1938, which requires the licensing of interstate gun dealers, who must record their sales. It prohibits sales to individuals under indictment or convicted of crimes of violence.” This suggests that citizens who want a gun or purchasing a gun will need a license of an interstate gun dealers. Those who are making crimes such as mass shootings, manslaughter, burglary, etc are not allowed to get a gun. Therefore with stricter gun law will show those who are creating mass shooting and committing burglary, etc that they are expecting to do a criminal history/ background checks also that is can not be easy to get a gun.
In the month of February there was a mass shooting in the school of Parkland, Florida. Emma Gonzalez spoke out on a rally on Saturday
