You believe that responsible firearm ownership and usage can provide personal protection, deter crime, and uphold individual liberties.
The "Gun Rights" political ideology is a belief system that advocates for the right of individuals to own, carry, and use firearms. This ideology is rooted in the principle of self-defense and the preservation of personal freedom. Supporters of gun rights argue that individuals have the right to protect themselves and their property, and that gun ownership is a deterrent against crime and tyranny. They often interpret the right to bear arms as an individual right, not just a collective right associated with militia service.
The history of the gun rights ideology is complex…

Should individuals have the unrestricted right to own any type of firearm?
@9H5BZ956mos6MO
I think there should be certain laws on that, there should definitely be restrictions but I don't think they should be banned.
@9H5CT3X6mos6MO
I think that "Gun Rights" are a privilege and there should be adequate training, psychological evaluation and renewal of permits every year for any and all gun owners.
@9H5BGQX6mos6MO
People should have the right to protect themselves with guns.
@9H5C7686mos6MO
I believe every individual who owns different types of firearms should have some restricted gun laws
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
How does the freedom to own a gun make you feel safer or more vulnerable in society?
@9H5FFFM6mos6MO
It could be used for protection purposes but at the same time it could also make things more dangerous if they get into the hands of the wrong people or people that aren’t mentally stable enough to own a gun.
@9H5G3J96mos6MO
Owning a gun grants personal protection by our 2nd Amendment rights. In times of danger, you won't need to worry about waiting for emergency services to arrive if you are able to take care of yourself.
@9H5DQX5Republican6mos6MO
safer because you can easily protect yourself and everyone will have the equal amount of protection
@9H5FLBC6mos6MO
makes me feel unsafe because there are real bad people out there
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
If you had to explain why gun rights are important to a friend from another country with strict gun laws, what would you say?
@9J73SMP4mos4MO
Gun's cannot be banned because if they were we'd be helpless while criminals can illegally steal weapons and know that we would not be able to protect ourselves.
@9J73XPW4mos4MO
I believe gun rights shouldn’t be strict because so many people have them it would be bad if your didn’t
@9J73WBG4mos4MO
Read the US Constitution. The second ammendmant is very clear. the state of our country at this point, with our corrupt administration, we need these rights. We will be defending ourselves from our government in the very near future.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
What measures can people take to ensure guns are used safely and responsibly?
@9HHYJCD5mos5MO
Getting training, secure storage, secure ammunition, avoid alcohol, avoid drugs, and you can report stolen or lost firearms. This can help lessen risks with firearm ownership and use.
@9HH2ZKBRepublican 6mos6MO
People can unfortunately only control the way they choose to use guns. The best that gun sales people can do is mental health and background checks for criminal record to decide if a gun should be distributed.
@9HH3FPY6mos6MO
I believe that looking back at the criminal records and denying guns to people who have been shown to use guns unwisely is a good way to ensure guns are used safely and responsibly.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Should there be a universal background check system for all gun purchases?
@92VHLQ8Constitution6mos6MO
No. it's a violation of the Fourth Amendment, and a backdoor to registration
@9HCRYNVRepublican6mos6MO
All firearms should have a background check when purchase a firearm
@9HCRYM2Republican6mos6MO
i think that if u have no criminal record you should have an easier time processing a gun
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Imagine living in a world where firearm ownership is as common as owning a smartphone; what are your immediate thoughts or concerns?
@9JXG45WRepublican3mos3MO
I would at least but a law out there to where they can only have a gun when they are hunting or in a serious situation.
@9JX6V2D3mos3MO
I would be terrified, because not everyone should have access or be able to carry a gun around and the more common it is the more issues it will cause.
@9J4SDRP4mos4MO
That I would need to carry one with me where ever I go since its most likely not safe
@9J4SCGN4mos4MO
If people were all responsible with them they would be no issues but that would never be the case and having too many irresponsible with guns will cause more problems than solutions
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
How has the history of your country or community shaped your views on the right to bear arms?
@9HMLSG95mos5MO
Bad men and women will get guns however they desire. When you put heavier restrictions on the good people, you leave them defenseless.
@9HMLYQC5mos5MO
some small questions can sometimes show a big difference in people and their intentions.
@9HMM2WL5mos5MO
I think the way guns are treated in this country doesn't give them enough weight
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
How would you propose we balance the right to self-defense with the risks of accidents?
@9HJ3VRSRepublican5mos5MO
We need to make sure that we understand who owns and buys gun legally. However it’s not the law abiding citizens that are committing crimes with legally purchased guns. Require gun qualifications in order to carry a gun or to own a gun for self defense in your home, training is so very important.
@9HJ3NR5Progressive5mos5MO
Self-defense is only acceptable if the individual is subjected to being harmed/kill
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Should guns be more accessible to people for self-protection, and why or why not?
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
How does the portrayal of guns in video games or movies impact your perception of gun ownership and its consequences?
@9J4S6TR4mos4MO
Freedom to make or sell whatever you so choose as long as it does not infringe on the rights of myself or others.
@9J4RWVNIndependent4mos4MO
It doesn’t affect me whatsoever, video games with guns do not reflect responsible gun ownership whatsoever.
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
If a new policy allowed you to carry a concealed weapon without a permit, how would this change your daily life, if at all?
@9J4S8FK4mos4MO
It would make me much less safe every time I leave my home
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
In your opinion, what role do firearms play in shaping a nation's identity?
@9HJQY965mos5MO
Everyone should be able to practice their right and own a gun
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Do you think the portrayal of firearms in media affects how society views the necessity of gun ownership, and if so, how?
@9J4SCTYRepublican4mos4MO
Media portrays weapon ownership as a sinful, a frowned upon act. But the instances shown on media do raise awareness on the importance of gun ownership, therefore portraying a mutual stance or depending on the individual in given society.
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Considering advances in technology, should 'smart' guns with enhanced safety features be the new standard, and why or why not?
@9J4SDKP4mos4MO
There should not be restrictions on guns, stick to the constitution. Guns don’t kill, people do. Get more mental health available and lower the prices of the mental medications so people can afford to take them.
