Guns, Crime, and Freedom

The book "Guns, Crime, and Freedom by Wayne Lapierre talks about why we do not need any gun control. For the most parts of this book it told us all about why we needed guns. One example they gave was "" (Lapierre 29). It gives a really good reason to why we really need to have guns in our lives. It could have saved the girls parents and a lot of others that day. The peoples that lives could have been changed really had a good point to why we need to be able to have guns.

This was one very good book. It reinforced my opinion as to why we do not need gun control. It showed that having a gun can protect you an everyone around you. They do have some laws like waiting periods, which is a great law in my opinion and you can get a good back ground check before they get he gun. I think that if you create a crime with a gun by either killing or threatening someone you should be put into prison. If you kill a person I think you should be put to death row.

Guns to me equal freedom. I think everyone with a clean record should b able to have a gun for them selves if they area above the age of 21. I think at this level you have become a little bit more responsible and can take actions for your self. I think the laws are fine for now but if the increase on guns keeps going up they might need to do some cut backs. This book has really gotten me to look at guns a whole different way and get alot better understanding. i think we do not need gun control.

Gun control higher gun rate

In this video it shows how guns can decrease the violence. It can stop people from attacking you. As said by John Stossel in this video " He was being followed by 20 guys and they said the were going to kill him and they were never going to find the body and just by pulling out the gun they ran" (Stossel 1:35). it shows how just by pulling out the gun it saved his life. If he didn't have his gun that day he might not be alive right now.

This video shows a great example of how a gun can save someone's life. it shows how Stossel is saved by just having a gun on him. He didn't fire a single bullet or kill a single person but that gun did save his life. I think that is why you really don't need a gun control law that you can't carry a pistol. It may eventually save your life one day.

Congress

Congress has tried to debate about the control of guns also. They say gun laws have dated back to 1934.Gun advocates argue " they curb access by criminals juveniles, and other " high-risk" individuals" ( Policy 1). Many get these guns off the street. this is where most of your crimes are caused. There is two main acts the Firearms Act and the Gun Control Act. These restricted strict requirements on guns and ammo and also it made it where you can not mail guns.

Even though I support there not being gun control I support the Gun Control Act where you cant send guns in the mail. Even though some law are ridiculous I think some are also good. I think the people are thinking to much about all this and are trying to act like it is a big deal when it really is not.

The Falacy and Motivation for Gun Control

in the article of Conswervapedia was a good article on Gun Control. Gun control causes an increase in crime. It is said that " Americans use fire arms to defend them selves from criminals at least 764,000 times a year" (Conservapedia 2). It is said that homicide rates go down whenever people have guns or can carry them. You are more likely to be mugged in London than you are in New York. Only because in London you can not carry weapons. many women fear to be attacked by someone. the guns help secure there well-being and helps protect them from anyone attacking them.

I think this is a great article. It shows the difference of people in other big countries that they have it worse off than we do because we can defend our selves with our guns. I can see that banding of fully auto weapons but with the other ones i think they should be allowed.

Gun control history

Every year there is lots of debaits over should there be gun control or not? It is said that almost every country that has had gun control has had something come out of it. Like Germany " In 1935 Germany esablished gun control a total of 13 million Jews and other's unable to defend themselves were exterminated" (Metcalf182 0:30). Why would you wont to go and take away guns when something like that would happen or could happen.

In the vedio by metalfan can in my opinioun I think we dont need gun control. I think we would be better off without it. The vedio gives ample examples that other countries have either killed thousands of people or the killing has gone up. you are never going to be able to get guns taken away everywhere and there is no way your going to b able to get them all up. so why not just try and reguklate the guns better so it is harder to get the guns.
