The Importance Of Gun Control Laws In America

Introduction: A complete ban on guns for the common people is in our best interest — no matter what the intent may be of using said weapon. None but those appointed in great authority (police, etc.) shall own firearms, and those who do so illegally are to then be punished by law, according to the laws set in place.

Narration & Refutation: Since late 1789, as the Constitution was still being taken into total effect, the American people have held the right to legally keep and bear arms; this right has been altered multiple times already since its existence. The American people at that time lived in a world far from what it is today: no one can deny that. What you may deny, however, is that we still necessitate the right to possess these firearms

The average cost of one, single gun crime can even go up to $1.79 million. And, in case you didn’t know, it’s us — the taxpayers who are paying that fee. So, then, not only is it safer without each individual owning a firearm, it’s also much cheaper — and, therefore, more practical. But, back to reality, where, in America, three percent of the population own half of the civilian guns; this may not seem like a problem now, but if robbed or accidents are to happen, you would surely see why this is can be a large risk factor. In fact, according to multiple surveys, 44% of Americans personally know someone who has been shot by a gun. Many of the systems in place now revolving that of gun ownership are simply not enforced, which itself is already an incredible hazard. The majority don’t even conduct a mental health screening, much less performing a universal background check since the systems in place haven’t been funded for

If we are so careless as to not make even one sort of actual safety precaution, there is no reason we should have the ability to own these weapons in the first
