A recent article, Got'cha! Obama Demands January 2013 Deadline for Gun Control Proposals, an anonymous writer speaks upon the issues on gun control. Ever since the New Town shooting many people have stood up to say they want rights to guns taken away. Some disagree with intentions of keeping their guns for their own protections.
"[Obama] called for stricter background checks for people who seek to purchase weapons and limited high capacity clips," this is a good idea for this country. There should be background checks just to see if some people are compatible to even own a gun for hunting. There are certain people in this country that disagree with this. They still believe that no one should have guns.
Obama has been quoted on saying, "The fact that we can't prevent every act of violence doesn't mean we can't steadily reduce the violence." Obama brings up a good point. There will still probably be school shootings, as in the one that recently happened in New Town, because some human beings might be perfectly fine when they first get their arms, but may sooner or later snap and cause problems.
Obama said that seeing people of different backgrounds and political affiliations going on to prevent such violence is "encouraging" to him. Obama did make sure to tell people that he does believe in the Second Amendment. This might help Democrats go on with helping him to still have guns, but just to background checks.
I believe that there should be some type of gun control, but the government should not take all of our guns away. So I am agreeing on a certain extent on gun control, but disagreeing on going to the extremes with taking everyone's guns away.
