Actually....as much as this may be a really sticky subject it's still my views. It's not in essay form but i just felt like voicing my opinion.

Topic: Gun Controll In the US

Recently I was asked the question "do you belive in gun controll?" I simply told them to elaborate on the question. "do you mean gun controll as in everyone has a liscense for their weapons, or gun controll as in everyone regesters their guns and the government takes them up? The question was directed twards the Idea of regestering guns and turning them over to the government. Therefore I am against it.
We as Americans have rights to posess guns. It actually happens to be our last line of defense against invading countries. Did you know that we are the only...I repeat...ONLY country in the entire world that has NEVER been invaded by a foreign race, country, army, ect? Never! Nobody has even tried. I'm sure they have thought about it but they obviously couldnt do it...do you know why? When they landed on the beach...they would have every redneck with their deer rifles and shot guns waiting for them. Even when we faught the Brittish, we drove them out of our country as it was being formed. Though It was a good point there was no debate because it has never happened in history. There is no proof that we would stand a chance against a foreign army because it's never happened.
Which brings me to my next point. Before Adolf Hitler decided to do his dirty work, he ordered all of his country (mainly the jews) to liscense their fireams to the government and then took them all. Shortly after...Nazism followed! My point...and the point which will end this topic of discussion, I wonder what would have happened if the jews still had their guns?
