Gun laws does it work? In recent discussions of Gun Control Laws, a controversial issue has been weather let the civilian run free without gun laws. On the other hand, some argue that gun law is great for the people. My own view is that I believe in the gun laws. Though I concede that someone don’t really have any mental problems or any other kinds of violence. I really do believe why does civilian need an automatic machine gun there is really no reason for it. But then I don’t know really why you should have a limit on your ammo in gun clip. Even though the statistics clearly state that the right to carry laws reduces crime rates, some people still don 't buy into it. People against right to carry laws are afraid that the person next to them may be a criminal and might be packing a 45 handgun in his back pocket. Or that the person that you just cut off on the highway has a rifle in his back window of his 4X4 and is just waiting for an excuse to use it. Although it may be frightening to think about, this simply just does not hold a credible argument. The person next to you, if he is a criminal, is going to be carrying a handgun whether or not it 's legal, and the person in the 4X4 with the mind set to assault, will not be held back by a law.
