Americans are entitled to bear arms under the Second Amendment to the Constitution of the United States in 1791, and the amendment says: The presence of a well-organized militia is necessary for the security of any free state, and the right of people to own and bear arms is not permissible.
The issue of reviewing gun laws is a quasi-partisan struggle within the American political corridors.
While the Democrats believe that the ease with which a person can obtain a weapon in the United States is exaggerated, which they attribute to the large number of murders, Republicans believe that carrying and possessing weapons is a right guaranteed by the constitution to all citizens, and they are sensitive to any proposal that might affect these laws.
