Question by Babygirl02/14: Need help on the last part of my paper on “Gun Control Laws”.?
The Second Amendment to the United States Constitutional states: “A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.” The rationale given of most modern gun control legislation is “Crime Control”. The Brady Bill is a prime example of gun legislation. James Brady was shot by John Hinckley during an attempted assassination on President Ronald reagan. James Brady became an ardent supporter of gun control. Bardy led lobbying efforts for stricter handgun control and is in the leadership of the Brady Campaign to prevent gun violence. The supporters of the bill used the attempted assassination to gain support for their gun control legislation, claiming it would reduce crime and save lives. The fact is that the background check and waiting period included in the assassination attempt. The background check showed he had no felony convictions in any jurisdiction. The Brady Bill is not effective in fighting crime, but it does affect crime victims. The five day waiting period during which the police conduct the background check is also supposed to serve as a cooling off period to prevent crimes of passion. Gun control could kill thousands of people every year by depriving the innocents of the means to protect themselves.

There should be gun control laws to help the needed people self-defense. Statistics show that people who are attacked by a criminal are safer if they use a weapon to resist their attacker than if they do not resist. Resisting crime ith a gun does not always means shooting the criminal. Statistics show that the in true life instances of self-defense with firearms, firing the gun was necessary only one third of the time, the rest of the time the mere presence of a gun was enough to scare away the attacker. Women are in need for having guns for protection. Peple must defend themselves from stronger aggressors such as women are weaker than most men are. Most women association feels that guns should be outlawed all together. In 1966, the Police Department in Orlando, Florida, offered a well-publicized self defense shooting program to women.

I totally agree with what you are saying. But didn’t see your title. Something like President Reagan’s “peace through strength” perhaps. Like security through strength, or security through force.
