It is an important law because of the basic right that the american government is suppose to be for the people. It is the peoples right to rise up and fight for their personal freedoms if the government is mistreating them. The law is not about protection. If it was, than there many things we should outlaw as they are unsafe for americans and thousands of people each year die from. Side: Yes it should be allowed
It isn't an important law because people shouldn't have the right to bear arms unless they are someone that protects the country for example the police. The people do have a right for their personal freedom but they shouldn't express that using guns because thousands of murders every year are caused by guns. Side: Yes it should be allowed

The second amendment states a well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. After doing research we disagree with it because most murders in america are caused by guns. Today we will show you all the pros of gun control. Our first point is a lot of unnecessary murders occur due to lack of gun control, second there is no need for guns, and lastly when the amendment was created the military wasn’t as powerful as it is now and so citizens always had to defend one another. Side: No, it should not

To argue your point that most murders in America are cause by guns, there is a graph showing that there are more dog bites than firearms in America. http://www.thetruthaboutguns. To argue your point that the police cant help every individual, because the average time it takes for a police to respond is 11 minutes, so the citizens need protection if the police doesn’t come in time. http://concealedguns.procon.org Side: No, it should not
To argue your point this shows that most murders in America are caused by guns. Many people are killed every year by firearms Side: Yes it should be allowed

A woman’s adult son shot and injured his mother’s boyfriend, Tony Hardin, in Tennessee, after Hardin allegedly fought with the woman and chased her with a hammer, threatening to kill her. Hardin faces charges. The mother probably would have been killed by the boyfriend if the son didn't shoot him. This saves the mother's life. http://www.newsmax.com/FastFeatures/ Side: Yes it should be allowed

If the second amendment was dismissed, the criminals would find a way to import guns, and no citizens had guns then the criminals would have an advantage. If guns were banned and criminals imported them illegally, the citizens that follow the law wouldn't have guns which would be to the criminal's advantage. http://apecsec.org/ Side: Yes it should be allowed

As said by Ann Coulter, "Guns are our friends because in a country without guns, I'm what's known as "prey." All females are.” If the girl had a gun, she could have shot the shooter and saved many lives. Guns usually scare the criminal away in public shootings. http://secondamendment1.weebly.com/ Side: Yes it should be allowed
