Gun Ownership
 
... Should civilians be allowed to own guns? … 
1. Individuals have the right to protect
themselves. 
2. Criminals or those with vicious intentions will
always find a way to acquire guns. Why
shouldn’t us have one to defend ourselves? 
3. It deters criminals. Criminals tend to think
twice before attacking potential victims with
guns.
4. Things like cars can be dangerous too, but
no one wants to ban them. 
5. Hunting and shooting are legitimate sports.
People should have guns to practice their
skills.
6. Hunting, gun collecting, and firearm sports
stimulate the economy:

Millions of dollars can be collected by 
the government from firearm-related 
sales. 

A lot more money can be made 
through licensing and fees. 

The number of people employed by 
the firearms industry is high. 
7. It is better to be safe than sorry. Would you
rather be prepared for a fire in your house
with a fire extinguisher or without one? 
8. Guns provide protection, when law
enforcement cannot. You could end
up losing your life or a loved one before the
cops can even get to your location. 
YES 
1. The rate of violent crimes increases when 
guns are available // Guns create violent
societies with high murder rates. 
2. Suicide rates have been reported to rise
when guns are available. 
3. Studies have shown that shooting someone
by accident would be far more likely than
shooting a home invader. 
4. According to research, people carrying a
gun for self-defense are 4.5 times more
likely to be shot during an assault or a fight
than those without a gun in the same
situation.
