Gun Pros and Cons

“While many people have decidedly formed opinions on gun control, the debate is complicated and has strong supporters on both sides. The pros and cons of gun control come to the forefront of debate in the wake of mass shootings that continue to pop up throughout the nation. Yet support for federal bans and reforms remain elusive. Even the devastating attack at Sandy Hook Elementary in December of 2012 failed to garner a consensus on the issue of background checks for gun purchases.” There’s a good reason for that. Neither side is mentioning the basic thing about “gun control” as we know it today: it’s going in the wrong direction. It’s targeting GUNS, not PEOPLE. It takes guns away from honest people, not criminals. They need to make laws that make using a gun harder on the CRIMINAL, not on responsible citizens. You don’t protect yourself by DISARMING yourself. That’s where they’re making their biggest mistake. The article linked here pretends to cover the “pros and cons” of gun control, but it doesn’t. The three questions it asks first talk about only PERIPHERAL ISSUES. The REAL points are above. (News Max)
