Pro Gun vs. Anti Gun

There are two sides to this argument people who use guns and like them and people who don't like guns and have only heard or seen people use them for bad things like robbing,killing,or just trying to threaten somebody.Guns aren't used for just bad things that's the irresponsible gun owners I use the words gun owners very loosely because according to The Washington Times most of those guns are stolen mainly out of vehicles or bought illegally from some dealer in a back alley because when you buy a pistol legally most dealers make you go through a very extensive process before the gun is actually considered yours there is a lot of paperwork you need to get done and when the gun is put together before distributing to the …show more content…
