I believe that there is no reason the general public needs to be armed with assault weapons. I feel the 2nd Amendment has been taken too far. It's one thing to have personal protection, another to have a rifle that holds 100 rounds.

Gun control is a very difficult issue to solve. I don't agree that in having lax gun control to appease people who just want guns for fun. I think that the 2nd Amendment was written a long time ago where guns were necessary for survival.

It is in the constitution that we have the right to bear arms. But, I do not believe in guns in schools and I don’t believe in automatic guns.

My opinion is people should be allowed to have guns, but not assault weapons.

They should have a strict law of screening people before they buy guns. But the problem is criminals will buy them illegally to use them illegally. Every day citizens should have guns for self defense.
