Effects of carrying a gun in public

What is the gun? What is the effect of carrying the gun? A gun is weapon which mixes the metal tube in bullets or shells. Also, the gun has other synonyms such as the firearm, revolver, pistol or rifle. A gun or firearm is a powerful machine which protects the human life. Also, this is a weapon which is illegal in some countries to be publicly exposed by those who have the legal rights to carry it. There are many negative and positive effect of carrying gun in public. Today, there are so many debates about carrying gun in public or not, and many of them have been held in both of the local and international stage. Many of legislation rules have passed the solve the issue of carrying gun in public, but these legislation have always met with a very sharp and controversial twists form the negative and positive of carrying guns. However, the fact that there are so many reasons from both pros and cons of carrying gun in public, the argument of carrying gun in public has never ever end in most part of the world where these issue of carrying gun was to be proceed.

In many part of the world, one of the advantages of carrying gun in public is its effects to deter crime. Guns deter crime. Most of the argument from the pros side have showed and gave the statics about how hide gun in public can manage the crime rates. For example, in The United States under the second Amendment there is the right by people to keep and carry gun. This mean to be protected and the fight against crime. This issue supported by John Lotto in his statistics basing his 2000 analysis that show there was a major decrease in crime cases which include the killing and rapes. Provide someone has a permit to carry concealed gun, there is not big deal of not let him carrying gun in public. (Webster et al., 1997)

Carrying of guns in public is kind of advantage. This will bring the effect of creation of feeling of security. As Webster et al. (1997) argue, when people carrying gun in public, they will protect and defend themselves from criminals. The people who work in the places that have crime they will be able to work having in their mind that they have protection. Also, the criminals will not be able to be fast in attacking them because they know that they have guns as they have. The people should not depend on the police because some time they are far away from the place that crime happens. They are always informed very late only to arrive to get losses.

All of the individuals who carry guns will be the most law abiding. The effect of just carrying gun will give someone a huge responsibility which will make him to understand that he has to follow the rules.(Loughran et al., 2016). This is made possible by the knowledge that if he uses the gun opposite to the rules in his licence, he will seize to own a gun then exposing him to dangers. Therefore, the owners of gun will be most likely than who don’t have guns.

License for people who carrying gun reduce crime.(Loughran et al., 2016). The responsibility which is acquired by gun owner for just carrying gun will enable him to transfer this responsibility to his children. Owning a gun is a huge responsibility. This will give the gun owner to be responsible in his life. The parent will not only take care of his gun but also make sure that the children become responsible. Having gun in the house is not a joke or simple thing. Any simple mistake will make someone to lose his life. Therefore, the parent should to introduce the feeling of responsibility to his children so as to any mistake which may lead to use the gun in bad way. This generally means the full responsibility in the children when they grow up.

This is different statement with the first point of the pros. The cons argue that concealed carrying of guns lead to much more crimes however it can prevent them. This is giving an idea that owners of guns will be very effective point for the criminals to brag in the daylight with their guns.(Polsby), argues that this will enable all of the criminals to have guns in public which they can use it to make crime. In addition, this statement is supported by lots of studies which show that the rules of the “shall-issue” law in The United State raised the crime rate. According to the Econ Watch journal, 2009. which is the result of peer review, it angre that there was a sharp increase of crime rate from 1977 to 2006.

The cons confirm that the use of the concealed carrying of the gun will rise the issue of people killing each other basing on their meeting. They say that if there will be a carrying of guns in public, then there will be a high number of victims as a result of this.(Polsby). This gives an idea that many people will die or get hurt by their friends or those people whom they will have disagreement with. This point is true. It is confirmed by the increasing issue of the policemen who always turn to their partner and kill then just has the result of argument or disagreement. If the policeman who are trained and have full knowledge about how to use the gun can do mistake how about the general people.

The concealed carry law can work only with the law abiding who are responsible. This law will only be effective when people who are genuinely responsible get the permits to carry the guns in public. However, Webster (1997) come that the psat personal behaviour, criminal history as well as the responsibilities held in the past can be used, but this can not be a guarantee that these people will continue to follow this law after giving the guns. If the criminals are giving the right to carry the gun, then how or who will stop them from carrying their bad target of crime? There are so many cases of the concealed guns used in crime. For example, 128 persons with permit were confirmed to be having active to the local violence in Florida.

As Laughran (2016) notes, carrying gun increases the risk of violence. Carrying gun of public is not a good thing to people who does not have the permits to carry gun. These people will threaten psychologically to be in the place where everyone has gun. They will threaten by making them to feel like they are not worthy. This will discourage them and always they will live in fear of what a disagreement comes up. They know that incase of any difference they will always be the most disadvantaged in the society.

In conclusion, I can say there has ever been a mixed reaction between the pros and cons on the effect of carrying the guns in public. This is an argument where people can participate to extend of getting into each other’s neck.
