The Second Amendment means to
guarantee the right to keep and bear arms as necessary to maintain a state militia;
that basically means you have the right to have as many guns as necessary to
make a functional military group within a community. I believe the second
amendment plays a huge part in our “gun toting society.” The reason I think
this is because this gives people the right to own guns, but do they know when
enough is enough? The second amendment says you can have enough guns necessary
to make a military group in your community, but is having a gun in every house
a little excessive? I think so.
I also believe that the media has
a part of our “gun toting community.” I believe this because all the media does
is scare us with so many murderers, rapists, and criminals that people think
they need guns because they are scared it’s going to happen to them. If the
media doesn't stop this, who knows what could happen in the future.
Do guns kill people or do people
kill people? I believe it’s a little bit of both, but I’m more lenient with
people killing people. People kill people because how do guns pull the trigger
by themselves? There has to be some type of human involved. Just like can bombs
just automatically blow up by themselves? No, because there has to be a human
there to program or light it. Guns also kill people because the ability to have
guns alone kills people.
I think that Obama’s executiveorders on gun control are a good way to help make society safer. I believe
they do a good job of regulating guns and ammunition. I think these orders will
make the communities and schools safer around the U.S. There are many orders he
has such as giving schools the ability to use federal grant money to hire
school resource officers or giving communities’ money to create programs to
keep guns away from people who shouldn't have them.
I believe the future for guns
laws is uncertain. It has potential to get better and to get worse. If the U.S.
continues to go by Obama's executive orders on gun control, then I think it can
only get better. However, if the media continues to scare people like this it
could stay the same or just get worse. My hopes for the future are that the
media takes broadcasting “bad” news down a notch, and the U.S continues to
follow Obama's executive orders on gun control.
