2nd Amendment

"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."




In this cartoon it shows the possibility of what could have happened if American’s were able to bring guns on planes. The side caption says ”what might have happened on Sept. 11 if this were truly The Land of the Free” it shows the terrorist shrink away as many Americans defending themselves with guns. The terrorist was resorting to lies saying they were only opening boxes for the pilot seeing how there are holding box cutters.

This relates to the fact of people putting restrictions on gun laws. All the laws are meant to protect but at the same time they prevent others from defending themselves. The amendments say that we as American’s have the right to bear arms and in most cases it is unconstitutional for states to ban them.

I think that all guns should be banned, but it is written that people can have guns and we shouldn’t infringe on their rights. Setting limits on gun usage and ownership is a different subject but banning is unconstitutional and American’s should have the right to carry their guns with them as along as they have the right documentation to have one.
