Pro or Anti 2nd Amendment

This Clip is the typical view of many Pro Gun believers, who dont want control. The notion here is that control is not needed, that it isnt the guns that kill innocent people its people who kill people. The argument is that 'good law abiding' citizens have the intelligence to be able to control the gun themselves. Many people seem have more faith in protecting themselves rather than relying on the law. To restrict these pro gun citizens is to violate their right by the 2nd Amendment.

The argument in this video is the opposition to pro gun owners or "law abiding citizens", that common sense and regulation is the right way to tackle gun crime rather than making guns more availabe for self protection. Those who welcome restrictions only want Gun control not gun bans, many understand the importance of the right of the 2nd amendment.


Based on these to sources I am more convinced by the anti gun control argument that people are afraid they will loose their constitutional rights. It seems easier to find sources that defend the constitutional right of the 2nd amendment than it is to find a strong argument for gun control. The points made to defend the constitution as it stands are very valid and strong, (for example to shoot back in defense rather than wait for police and risk being killed.) Typical America pragmatic.
