My Favorite Amendment
Second Amendment:
The Second Amendment is related to the gun culture of America. It stated that “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.” In America, 22% of people own one or more guns where 120 guns are owned by every 100 Americans. Proponents of the amendment believe that in order to control crime, it is necessary to reduce guns and should support restrictions over new guns. On the other hand, opponents argue that it is the right of citizens to own guns for safety purpose.
Pros of the Second Amendment:
Gun crime is a crucial issue in America where hundreds of people died due to the gun attacks. Therefore, the most crucial pros of the second amendment are that it can reduce gun crime. More restrictions on guns ownership will ultimately reduce guns death. Ban on the high-capacity magazine will also reduce the crime rate as even if people own a gun for self-defense, low-capacity magazine can ensure fewer mass murders. Gun control laws can reduce street crime and increase the protection of women and children from stalkers and abusers. Legal guns are mostly stolen for crimes and thus less used in self-defense. In addition, gun control laws can reduce issues like suicide and accidental gun deaths.
Cons of the Second Amendment:
Individual gun ownership is protected through the second amendment. Gun ownership can reduce the crime rate more than gun control laws can. Gun control laws reduce the sense of safety where people cannot use a gun for self-defense. Numbers of people use guns for sport and hunting purpose and gun control laws can restrict their passion. Gun control laws cannot control criminals to acquire the illegal weapon, hence, cannot ensure safety for civilians. In addition, gun control laws require micro-stamping and other personal information which can create privacy concerns for people.
