2nd Amendment Gun Control, I believe that we need to have guns. we can do about taking out shootings if you take guns away from good people then they can't defend themselves, then we can't hunt for food, and we can't have protection. we dont want to have no guns and the government to have all the power. even if they try to take the guns away they won't get most of the guns. We need to have that right to have our guns our protection to defend ourselves from robbers and the government if it goes bad. The police will not get to you in most of the time so you need to be able to defend yourself from intruders you don't want to risk your life on the police if it may take them quit a while to get to your house to save you by that time anything could happen to you or your stuff. …show more content…

So if we take the guns way how will they get that food. how will they survive. They can't get their food with slingshots. we can't let them starve to death. that's why they need guns to hunt.in alaska thats on of the only ways they get food they dont have grocery stores there or supper markets. The only way is to hunt to survive. If the government take the guns away and they try to rule us how will we take the government back over. they will be so much more powerful than us. We cant let that happen even if it means our ways of living need to change, and if we want to stop shootings then they should have guns to protect the children. that's a lot better than sitting the waiting to get shot. It needs to be amended so that we can still hunt and have inmates have to be harder to get a gun. they have to take hard test to get them. It would be better to make the ones with bad back rounds to not be able to get the

In order for people like Alaskans to survive, they need guns to kill these animals. If guns are banned, how will the people that live in these remote areas get their food? It is unrealistic to believe that you can just go outside, hunt a bear, and kill it using hand-to-hand combat. Many people can come to the conclusion that the term “gun control” can be ambiguous, but the true meaning of it is laws that control how guns are sold and used and who can own them.

Gun control is used as a vote getter for many left-wing politicians, is it really as simple as they make it seem? Well as it may not surprise you, many if not close to 100% of voters who vote libertarian, republican, conservative, and other middle to right-wing groups vote against gun control. How can such a vast majority of people be so short-sighted or just plain dumb, or should their argument be looked into and valued? Only the numbers will reveal the truth. America as a whole is very political, are gun rights simply a way for politicians to appeal to their conservative base, or do they have a positive impact?

The issue over whether or not it is constitutional for the government to restrict the ability to buy or keep guns has been argued for many years. Debates often flare up because of a tragedy in which someone goes on a rampage with guns and kills or injures multiple people. People who are against gun control claim that the Second Amendment gives them the right to own firearms; however, the Constitution only gives collective rights to possess guns rather than individual. 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.” (US Const.

Gun control is an issue that just keeps gaining momentum and everyone wants to say their piece. Ranging from NRA members and red necks who want to keep their fire arms to friends, families, and victims of mass shootings who want to make sure their loved ones are safe. This issue needs to be solve in a way to minimize the amount of ruffled feathers and it needs to happen quickly.

Even guns were used in illegal way, first, guns can be used self-defence as same time as harming other people. In the United States Constitution, there is an amendment that 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.” This allows people to own guns to protect themselves and gun control movement is anti-fundamental because it is against Constitution which is primary law in the United States.

First of all, every American has the right to bear arms according to the 2nd amendment.

For many years, during the time that most of the “west” was considered Frontierland, people would hunt for animals only to sell the furs and meat. This was a way of life for many people, and the way of life still exists today for many. Many Americans today fear that their rights to gun ownership are threatened by big government. There are a lot of politics that go into even attempting to revoke rights from citizens. Currently, the government uses agencies like the ATF and FBI to enforce laws that restrict ownership of several types of weaponry, or use very strict guidelines to obtain things such as cannons or class three weapons (Full autos).

Many of us own guns because they make us feel safer. We know we can protect ourselves. If they take guns away, how will we protect our families?

Also, many ladies who have to walk home or down alleys late at night are carrying guns to defend themselves if attacked.

That is not true as the Second amendment said,“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.” The gun enthusiast only remembers the ‘bear arms’ part, and forget that it is for a ‘well-regulated militia' it said nothing about private individuals. Evaluation of possible future scenarios & solutions: There is high chance, that use of guns would stop but other forms are easily available like the crossbow which could easily be homemade, and used, and there are also the possibility of 3D printing a gun which is available and could be downloaded and print.

What about the 2nd amendment and the constitutional right to bear arms? Debates on gun control are often frayed with heavy emotions and personal opinions. Not for lack of good reasoning, especially when statistics show that 40 percent of Americans know someone who was either fatally shot or committed suicide with a firearm (The Trace, 2017). However, before you form an opinion on statistics alone, try using simple logic and common sense. Imagine you’re out walking through the shopping mall or even perhaps the local neighborhood Walmart
