Well, no, people shouldn't be allowed to carry guns. At least not handguns and other assault weapons. Only law enforcement should carry guns. "Guns don't kill people, people kill people" my ass. That's a cop-out. Guns kill people. And knives kill people. And.. a pen, I'm sure could kill people. But as it's been previously stated, they all have their own practical purposes. If you want to hunt, get a rifle license from the NRA. If you need to defend yourself, hell, use your rifle. If you don't have one, make do with what ya got. People are still gonna be murdered regardless. It may be true that criminals get their guns from the black market, but the potential to commit a crime with a gun would only go down with a gun-ban, not go up. It's not like prohibition. People aren't clamoring to shoot people like they are to get wasted. "The right to bear arms" is simply dated. Though the truth is that guns will never be outlawed. It's one of our "rights" and therefore it will remain that way. It's a bit hard to imagine America without guns, actually. Specifically in the way of entertainment. Guns are so ingrained in our culture, such a part of cinema and TV. |
