Gun Control Laws

Throughout the decades, guns have become more and more a part of life, all over the world. Guns are all around us. Both of which, crooks and law-abiding citizens, possess. The nation is trying to rid of the public possessing guns, in order to reduce violent crimes. However, if you take guns away from civilians, they no longer have the ability to protect themselves against a gun-wielding criminal. Thus, giving criminals more reason and logic to use a gun against an innocent person. There are many people that have no desire to touch or even own a gun, and for that reason, leads them to believe that guns are not needed for the public. Gun control is very important, and for that reason, guns should not be handed out to anyone and everyone. At the same time, I believe that if a person has a clean criminal background, he or she should be allowed the right to bear arms.
