I personally do not own a gun and I never plan to. However, the Constitution says the people have the right to bear arms. I agree with the fact that some people do not need guns. But who is the government to determine the smart ones from the dangerous ones. I don’t own a gun because I know they are dangerous and don’t want an accident to possibly happen. I was raised in a safe environment without a gun. But unfortunately not everyone has that luxury. If you take away the safety net for thousands of people then nothing will be accomplished. If an accident occurs because a parent did not take the time to teach to their children the dangers of guns, let alone telling the kids that there is even one in the house, then I just think that is Darwinism at its very best. Murders could possibly go down, but by how much? Times have changed since the Bill of Rights were written, but I haven’t seen anything yet to make me think anything should change. If I feel the need to go hunt some deer tomorrow, I should by all means have the right to go and buy a gun.
