Gun Control

October 10, 2015

When the subject of gun control comes up in discussion, I am often called to prove that regulating guns is effective. The idea is that gun ownership is a right granted by the constitution and to regulate guns one needs a concrete argument to take that right away. I will attempt to tell you why gun ownership on an individual level was not the intent of the 2nd amendment. But rather gun ownership brings with it a civic duty. By showing this I shift the burden of proof to the gun owners to prove the need outweighs the dangers.
