Guns Protecting People

Guns being owned is a good way to protect yourself from any harm that might come your way. For example, if someone breaks into your home and you have very little time to call the police. The criminal all of a sudden pulls out a gun and threatens to kill you with it and the police still did not show up to help you. What should you do?  You should quickly find your gun, take off the safety lock, and shoot the criminal before the criminal gets a chance to shoot you. Two years ago in Texas a man dressed like Santa Claus had broke into a family home and kill an entire family before turning a gun on himself. The age range of the victims were 18 to 60 years old at the time of their murder(http://www.wxyz.com/dpp/news/region/oakland_county/troy-police-arrest-santa-claus-in-home-invasion).

 Hearing A Shooting Next Door And How To Handle It
 If anyone hears a gun shot next door they should help them bringing their own gun along with an extra pack of bullets just in case you run out. Third example, that happened on November 26, 2012 a man that lives in Minnesota had killed two teens for breaking into his home and now charged with murder(http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2012/11/26/15458995-minnesota-man-who-killed-teens-in-break-in-charged-with-murder?lite). In my opinion, I feel that guns don't kill people and people kill people because in order for a gun to kill someone the gun need someone to control it and a gun can't kill anyone just by laying down on the ground a gun needs an operator in order for it to work. People now use guns for committing crimes instead of using guns for emergencies when they are in trouble. The man that killed the two teens should had never shot them in the head but, if he was going to shoot them he should have shot them in the leg or either the arm so he will not be charged with murder. These are the top reasons why I personally believe that guns are a good way to protect yourself from harms way and not use a gun just to commit violent crimes.

For Gun Laws vs. Against Gun Laws

Guns can protect people if it is used at the time of need and trouble. A lot of people are now using gun for excitement and to see some else die instead of using it when they are being attacked by a criminal in their homes or either the streets. If people were to use guns just for protection only the crime rate will eventually decrease because by having guns for protection criminal will not bother you nor will try to break into your home. For the safety of children put a safety lock on your gun away from a child's reach. I have gotten this picture from Google images to symbolize the argument on gun control laws.

 After the shooting in Newtown, Connecticut according to Fox News President Obama is planning on banning certain types of weapons and the National Rifle Association are refusing any changes to the gun laws and they predicted that Congress will not pass a law restricting weapons. In certain states for example New York and Maryland have moved ahead towards more aggressive weapon control laws. I feel that guns should be allowed to those who have a gun license and the gun should have more than 7 rounds in the gun. The Second Amendment Second states that "we have right to bear arms" and we should have at least have 20 rounds. I have gotten this clip from fox news on Obama talking about the gun laws.
