The Second Amendment
From the founding of our country we have always had the right to have and keep our firearms as part of our freedom and to have as part of our defensive protection.The mass majority of legal gun owners in th United States use their guns in a safe and responsible manner. The mass majority of crime that takes place with firearms take place with stolen and/or illegal guns that have come across the border undocumented and with no legal tracking system of their existance at any time. Our government will never be able to have complete control over all of the firearms that are in our country. The criminals out there will be able to have more control and the crime rate will increase if the government is able to take the firearms away from the law abiding citizens, and cannot take them from the criminals and gang bangers out on the streets. If we let our government have complete control of everything and take away our rights, we will be living in a country of dictatorship.
Why is this important?
The enormous amount of US citizens that are legal owners of firearms do follow all of the federal and state laws and guidelines for owning firearms. There are less than 1 % of all crimes that are committed by legal gun owners. Do not punish the innocent law fallowing citizens for what the law breaking and criminals do.
