1. A Praiseworthy Comment on Weapons Ban

People are praising her initiative and saying that there need to be strict laws regarding the same. A lot of people have been affected due to this recently.
However, the opinion is not unchallenged. Some people, it seems, are not ready to give up their weapons because they think that the second amendment of the American Constitution is very important. And they also think that this is very vital to the safety of the general public.
2. Shootings in the United States of America
In the last few days, there have been a lot of shootings in the United States of America and the citizens are growing more and more concerned for their school-going children.

3. Shootings in a School in Nashville
Last month, an armed man attacked an elementary school in Nashville. A few students and a teacher lost their lives in this shooting.
This shooting sparked a great and bitter debate on gun rights in the United States of America. People questioned the easy process of accessing arms and weapons.
These types of shooting incidents have been happening frequently in the United States of America. The citizens are concerned regarding the same.
4. Second Amendment of the United States Constitution
The second amendment of the United States Constitution allows people to own arms for their self-defense and was adopted in 1791 as a section of the Bill of Rights.
This amendment has been interpreted variously by various judges and people and few people deem it to be very necessary.
5. Joe Biden’s Take on the Matter
Joe Biden is also concerned about the rise in shootings in the United States of America.
He stated that the State government needs to be more vigilant and strict when it comes to maintaining the regulation of the law and order in the State and society.
