The idea of gun control is something that relates to everyone in some form or fashion. It also means many people have their own ideas for gun control. The debate over how to approach gun control laws is an on-going debate between lawmakers in congress and average citizens alike. Some groups would like to have laws that completely banned guns for everyone. They feel that this would help to reduce the violence that is done using guns as the weapon of choice. On the opposite side of the subject is the idea of having no gun control whatsoever. If there were to be no gun control laws, everyone would obviously have equal access to guns. Some people feel that this freedom would allow people to use their weapon more responsibly. Also since the great availability of guns, there would possibly be less violence because everyone would be protected by a gun. In the middle of these two greatly different ideas is where our country is currently located in this battle. It is the idea of not changing our current gun laws. If gun laws are changed, many people feel it infringes of their second amendment rights. Other people feel without the addition of new laws, gun violence and mass murders will continue on a fast, uncontrollable track. This is why the current debate on guns is so popular. It affects everyone now and in the future. Many people want to continue the debate to make their own respective viewpoint’s side happy. We as a WRD 111 group have a better option than the three mentioned above.
