The possession of guns should not be illegal because the real problem is the laws regarding it. In recent discussions of guns, a controversial issue has been whether they should make it illegal the sale and possessions of it. On the one hand, some argue that it would mean making us vulnerable to anyone. From this perspective, I understand and agree some people would feel safer with a gun in their home. On the other hand, however, others argue that innocent people die every day at the cause of illegal possession of guns. In the words of Tiffany Madison, one of this views main proponents, The Second Amendment is timeless for our Founders grasped that self-defense is three-fold: every free individual must protect themselves against the evil will of the man, the mob and the state. According to this view, everyone is entitled to protect themselves if felt threaten. In sum, then, the issue is to enforce the laws of gun control or accept the consequences. My own view is that gun laws should be enforced regarding to whom and for what is the purpose of buying it. Though I concede that guns are necessary in case of an emergency, I still maintain that they should be owned by someone mature and experienced. For example, the age in which someone can buy a gun should be at least 21 or over. Although some might object that having a gun in the home could cause an accident if there are children, I would reply that a responsible parent and human being would secure it. Making the point in which it is important to know who the gun is being sold to. The issue is important because we think guns are the problem but its we who choose when to pull the trigger.
