IMO, people should be given the choice whether whey want to own a fire-arm or not. In places like Texas, where home invasions are very common, the possession of a fire-arm can save many lives. However, the government should make it impossible for people with a criminal record, and those with mental issues from obtaining fire-arms.
yes, given the choice whether they want to own a fire arm or not but you must comply its standard upon carrying a gun specially if it is for security purposes. They must follow the rules so that no gun incident will happen especially to children who are commonly the victim.
