There are too many leading factors as to why there should not be any stricter gun control laws. Some of these factors are that they go against our fundamental rights of self defense, give too much power to the government, and could potentially increase crime rates in the united states.…
Before addressing the viewpoints and the positive and negative effects, understanding what gun control is should be the first step. According to Dictionary.com, Gun Control is, "An effort to fight violent crime by strengthening laws on the ownership of firearms.” Guns are more likely to result in a death, than a knife or other weapons and people own them for the protection of items, hunting, or other reasons (Zimring). While it may be an effort to stop murders and injuries, it will not stop people from…

Guns do a lot of bad, but do a lot more good for society. Banning guns will not stop the problem, but will just make it worse. Guns are apart of our society as Americans they have been around since colonial years, and are not leaving anytime soon. “The number of guns in America has increased by more than 50 percent since 1993, and in that same period the gun homicide rate in the United States has dropped by half. (Kristof, The Times).” Guns offer protection for individuals. One day you could be in the wrong place at the wrong time, and a shooting breaks out, you will pray there is someone else there with a concealed firearm to help control the situation while waiting for police to arrive. They can’t do that if guns are banned. “We need to understand that we cannot stop crimes and murders. And banning guns would be a step, or two, backwards instead of moving forward in the right direction (The Times News).” The research conducted to produce this paper was drawn from a multitude of sources all with different…
The first reason that guns should be banned for ordinary citizens is that guns are the sign of violence. Guns are made for killing and harming other human beings. In many states there are “Shoot First” laws that allow people to defend themselves in public using guns with no duty to retreat. The Shoot First law can be dangerous to other people who are present in the area and people can get injured and killed. Why should governments allow people to own and carry guns in the name of protection? When there are law and police in a country people do not…
Firstly, some think if people have no guns, the crimes rate will be decreased rapidly. Greg McCune's collects the data that a mount of people dead because of shootings in his article about ''Gun type used in Sikh shootings in other attacks.'' (①Greg McCune, Tue Aug 7, 2012). Unfortunately, it is too narrow for people to against gun control by reading this information. In fact, in America, crimes not only include the shootings, but also some others, like car accidents, stealing and etc. Even if people are not allowed to own guns, the crimes…
Firstly, the rights to own guns should be controlled as they have the power to kill, to inflict damage. Instead of “being necessary to the security of the state”, it is contributing to the unknown dangers of the state. People are not using the guns that they are given the right to own to protect themselves, but rather to hurt others.There have been many incidents where there are people who have managed to gain possession of guns and caused deaths of many innocent people. For instance, Adam Lanza, where he single-handedly gunned down 20 children, and 6 adult staff members at Sandy Hook Elementary School. Although the reasons behind his killing spree is unknown, he has caused harm and killed innocent victims with the weapon he had, guns. If he did not have the guns, I seriously doubt that he would have been able to take down so many people. Hence, gun are detrimental to society and should be controlled since they can cause harm to innocent people.…
Faust's own abominable actions towards his unfortunate mistress, Gretchen, and his later abhorred reaction towards this shows that only a complete change in character and outlook of his type could allow Faust to leave behind the putrid excesses of his past lust and decadence. "I love those who yearn for the impossible... / The deed is everything, the glory nothing" (10635-10638) could never be the words of any petty materialist or anarchist, and Faust was more than eager to sacrifice whatever possible individual "glories" may come with the former types in order to find his actual self, and what it lusted for in this undiluted essence. If we look back to Thomas Becket's denial of the dual political and religious position he was offered, we…
