Gun Control is a good thing in many different ways for many people. However, when you have a law abiding citizen who can not purchase a gun because the restrictions are too high then there is a problem. Gun Control was made to keep a person who has something on their record like drunk driving multiple times, armed robbery, or illegal citizen from buying a gun because the government wants to keep everyone safe and does not want to harm anybody. As stated in my research found in a world encyclopedia, “Many people own guns for the protection of their home.” (“Gun 440”). What the article is saying is that if you take away the handgun of a citizen who has done no harm, and when there is a need for the protection of your family and they have no gun then they have nothing else to do but hide and hope the criminal does not find them before the police come.
Society today think that just because guns kill a majority of people, if the government bans them, everything in society will be perfect and there won’t be murders or a police officer can always eliminate the danger. These accusations are not true and it’s all based on the place and time. In conclusion, assault weapons should not be banned. Previous bans have not been successful,
If background checks, and polygraph test, then we can decrease gun violence. There may also be ways to make guns less dangerous to store. New technology in "smart guns" recognizes the owners ' fingerprints or hand grip or has other features controlled by the owner, so firearms can 't be stolen or accidentally fired by a child. Those guns are not currently mass-produced in the U.S., a recent "60 Minutes" report found, in part because of fears that they might lead to greater gun control. There are accidental deaths that happen everyday where a child accidentally shoots him or herself or someone else.
This is very unusual, as guns in America are used to protect people, but these guns are more commonly used to kill other people. This happens in real life because the Las Vegas shooting killed almost half of ten thousand people were injured or killed. The main evidence here that proves my point, is “A background check did not stop this killer, but tighter background checks can keep war weapons out of the hands of those who are known to be mentally unstable.” This helps me prove my point because the killer would not have obtained a gun if stricter background checks occured. Without a gun, the killer become weak, and unable to kill people. This would make us much safer if killers don’t have access to guns.
If they don’t pass the test to buy a gun, they still able to buy a gun from the black market. Since America has the right to sold gun, some of the evil people sale illegal gun to make benefits. If we banned gun, it helps reduce the chance of them to make mistake shoot people, save life, and take less risk to black-market. Gun wasn’t help protection in some case, it may lead to kill people by accident and another dangerous situation. Collier Charles W points out that gun for self-defense is a bad idea in his article.
While gun control has little noticeable benefits, there are some points to mention. One of those points being that if one could find a way to actually ban guns and get rid of them so that no one anywhere could have access to a firearm, murder rates as well as maybe even crime would decrease simply because guns make it so much easier to do both of those things. Guns are dangerous and used in the wrong hands can bring destruction to anyone unlucky enough to be involved, including whoever is using the gun. The idea of Gun Control and what it means can vary widely, with big issue being what it would actually accomplish, if anything. One thing to consider with gun safety in mind is that in Chicago, Illinois, which has the most strict laws in the whole of the entire country, has the highest percentage of gun violence in the whole of the United States (Stell).
This causes an issue, since law-abiding citizens would no longer have guns to defend themselves, while criminals would have them regardless of laws. Guns also have a tendency to deter a criminal, based on the fact that any victim may have possession of a gun. Women and some weaker individuals have no means of self-defense from rape and assault, and many women want to arm themselves and be able to defend themselves. Often times, police are too busy to protect every citizen, and guns tend to help, since they provide law-abiding citizens with a means of self-defense. Many pro-gun supporters say that banning guns will both “create another potentially large source of organized criminal revenue, as a black market for guns will sure develop”, and “take away yet another piece of our liberty, which is one more step to socialism and totalitarianism” (Messerli).
There have been so many gun incidents in the this world ours , we still don’t have a type of law for gun control policies, and there should be. There are about 100,000 Americans killed each year by guns. If the Congress could just lay some type of control on guns right now, we can save many lives from being in danger, stop all the school shootings, and have a better, more safe life. Gun policies can help lower crime rate and stop children and irresponsible adults from getting guns. Having a gun control laws can help save more lives in this world and stop having families suffer in pain because a mental man had killed a member that belongs to their family.
A possible concern is that concealed firearms will make criminals more likely to commit more crimes. This is true and it may cause more crimes. Adults may be tempted to use their firearms in the wrong way. In spite of this, it’s important to remember that carrying a concealed handgun can help stop a public shooting spree. Maybe those adults who are tempted to use their firearm unlawfully will start a shooting spree, but those who are responsible will help stop that from happening.
This essay shows three aspects about thinking this controversial problem more rational. First and foremost, making the control over guns stricter could save many people’s lives through preventing parts of the suicides. Secondly, making the control over guns stricter may protect citizens’ lives by keeping them away from violence and some crimes. Last but not least, making the control over guns stricter might protect people from the risk of traumatic stress disorder. Adversely, there are some opposing views.
