Gun Control

The liberal side of gun control is that guns are a dangerous weapon and there should be some more laws controlling who can have them. The 2nd amendment is outdated and should be changed. There have been so many school shooting, which could have been avoided with some gun regulations. On the other hand, conservatives believe that the founding fathers included the right to bear arms in the bill of rights and therefore they should be kept. Also, a person should have the right to defend themselves from other people. Guns are not the problem and people are! They argue that many people die from heart disease and we do not see people being forced to exercise. Finally, they believe that if we outlaw guns, people will still find a way to get them through illegal transactions.

After fully researching the conservative side i have come to realize that they make many valid points and i am way more conservative now on this topic than i was before. I feel like the argument about criminals will just find another weapon is so true, and wouldn't it be easier to know what their weapons could be? I mean, what if they create a more destructive weapon and we wouldn't know how to defend ourselves. On the other hand i feel like we should try to have more control on who can buy a gun, so that guns do not get in the hands of the wrong people, so i am mostly conservative with some liberal on this topic.
