Informative Essay On Gun Control

All of this talk about gun control is really getting on my nerves. Why does it really matter who owns a gun and who doesn’t? Why is it that you have to register the gun you bought in your name? That’s not really any one's business. Why is it that everyone must pass a background check to be able to purchase a gun? Who cares if the buyer is a prison escapee? That’s a little too personal if you ask me.This is America for goodness sake, land of the free! Everyone should be able to purchase their own gun and do as they please with it. It will make life a lot easier and a lot safer.
Guns can most certainly be used in many other useful ways rather than just for killing and hunting. An example of this would be letting the children play with them. Instead of hiring a babysitter when you and your significant other go out, just let the kids play with the guns while you’re gone. Not only will they be able to protect themselves, but they will also have some fun while doing it. Sure, they might fire off a few shots to get a few chuckles out of themselves, but at least they won’t be kidnapped

or robbed. They will find it hilarious when there are bullet holes all over the living room wall, but at least they are safe, right?
The few people who are in favor of cracking down of gun control are the ones we need to worry about. They are ridiculous for wanting guns registered to the buyer. This will only make it is easier for detectives to find the guilty when a crime was committed. That is absurd. I find it kind of funny when a clerk at a gas station gets all scared when held at gunpoint and says things like, “I thought I was going to get shot,” or “the gun was just so intimidating,” or even better “I thought I was going to die”. A gun is simply just a piece of metal with a trigger, some gun powder and a few bullets inside of it. The gun itself can’t kill you, so there is no reason to be scared of guns. Sure, it can be just a tad harmful if a bullet were to puncture you somewhere dangerous like your head or your throat, but that’s not really a big deal at all. It’s the people behind the gun that we should start to worry about. After all, the shooter is the one that can kill you, not the gun.
Think about it.

If there weren’t any restrictions or regulations on gun control, our country would be in such better shape. Poverty stricken people struggling for food and shelter could just walk into a grocery store and leave with a cart full of food for free, just by pointing their gun at the cashier. That’s incredible, don’t you think? Another situation would be if you were to be pulled over for reckless driving. Just point your gun out the window at the police officer, and just like that, you’re off the hook. This could produce clean driving records, which could very likely lower insurance rates. Also, this would allow police officers to spend more time at the doughnut shop while also not spending as much on gas. That would mean that there would be more spending money in all of our pockets. With the current economic situation that Illinois is in, we could use all the help we can

get.
Ultimately, I say we start a protest in each of the 50 states to ban all gun restrictions and regulations. Sure, we as a country have fought for so long for peace, but who cares. Lets just throw it all away for freedom. Let the people be free to possess guns and utilize them in whatever manner they please. I can sure see the number of deaths from guns hitting an all time high, but then the United States would be able to brag about being the highest ranking country with deaths from gun related causes. I can picture it now, President Obama sitting around having a meeting with all the members of the United Nations, his head held up high, chest out, big smile on his face, bragging.
