Many citizens in the United States who oppose Gun Control believe that firearms are an extremely significant implement in the excercise of this right.

The Second Amendment to the United States Constitution is part of the United States Bills of Rights that protects the right of the people to keep and bear arms. It was adopted December 15, 1791, along with the rest of the Bill of Rights. The Supreme Court of the United States first ruled in 2008 that the Second Amendment protects an individual right to possess and carry firearms.


Some citizens believe that if the 2nd Amendment is broken, then it is going against the fathers of the country, and that more crimes will take place instead of less.
