Gun control, in all shapes and forms, but more particularly handgun control, has been an issue for the past few years.� Some people believe that by banning handguns all together then it will fix the problem.� On the other hand, it is not fully taken into account that handguns are also used a great deal in defense without a shot being fired.� Most of the time the gun is revealed and the criminal perceive that his life to be in danger and the situation is under control.� If the guns are banned on the basis that they are the most common weapons used in crimes, then the pro-gun control activists are rejecting the defense use of them.� So in some sense it would increase crime.� Crime will not be completely removed by simply banning weapons. |
