Some of the reasons for gun control are that it will help the government control us. Hitler, during World War II, used gun control against the Jewish people to better control and encircle them. Historians have documented almost everything about it except what made it so easy to attack defenseless Jews without fear of resistance. Their weapons were registered and therefore easily confiscated. (Stephen Halbrook) If the government started registering guns and knew their locations left and right, they could overthrow us with a flick of the wrist. Imagine having your local police come to your door and take your only good form of self-defense. Then turns around and kidnaps your children and your children, including yourself. I mean, that's what the Jews faced during the holocaust. So this is why people don't support gun control for fear the government will take over us and lose their guns. Additionally, some people use weapons to feed their families through hunting. You take away their guns, you take away their ability to provide for themselves. their family. I believe the government has no right to take our guns to control us. But it's actually better when the government allows us to carry guns in our daily lives. The 31 states that have “shall issue” laws allowing private citizens to carry concealed weapons have, on average, a 24 percent lower violent crime rate, a 19 percent lower murder rate and a 19 percent lower robbery rate. 39 percent lower than states that ban concealed weapons. (David Lampo) In fact, the nine states with the lowest violent crime rates are all gun rights states. (David Lampo) Concealed handguns establish self-governing rules across the state. .. middle of paper ...... defeated and another country was coming for us. we could use our weapons to fight back and possibly win. The Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution 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.” the army to protect us against foreign invaders. If the government took up arms, everything we own would be lost. We use firearms in the military every day by all branches of the military. We only use them for the pleasure of shooting and target practice. we use them to hunt animals that we use for meat. we use them as work to provide for those we love. so go ahead and try to take our guns from the government When so many people depend on guns every day.
