28th Amendment Project

What is The 2nd Amendment?

The Second Amendment

The Second Amendment of the United States is the Right to Keep and Bare Arms. In the Constituion, the Second Amendment declares that "a well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bare arms, shall not be infringed."

Why was the Second Amendment in the Constitution in the first place?

The Second Amendment was ratified in 1791, to allow the the U.S citizens to be able to counteract a possible repressing government. James Madison was concerned that in future generations the government would become corrupt and have a tyrannical ruler just like what they expierenced with King George III.

Why

Why is this Important?

In order to better protect the people of The United States of America, we recommend that more restrictions and limitations are created for gun control. This will save lives and reduce gun related deaths. The reduced presence of guns would make a conflict less likely to become violent.

More gun control laws are needed to protect women from domestic abusers and stalkers.

Changes:

Changes to be Made:

  • Ban of the use and purcahse of assault-style weapons.
  • (High Capacity Magazines often turn into mass murder.)
  • Add an age limit of 25+ for all guns.
  • (25 is when the frontal lobe is fully formed)
  • Background Checks are mandatory
  • Civilians, including hunters, should not own military-grade firearms or firearm accessories.
  • A course must be taken on proper gun safety.
  • Where to store a gun.
  • How to properly use
