The argument over gun control does exist. However, I have and always will fully support and back up the second amendment. The right to bear arms guarantees a fundamental right that belongs to all law abiding Americans. The second amendment protects all of our other rights also. In order us to keep these rights around, we must get serious about prosecuting violent criminals. Why not go back to Project Exile, which said that if a violent felon used a firearm to commit a crime, they would be sent to prison for 5 years with no parole or early release. For example, gun murders decreased by 60% in Richmond, Virginia during the first two (2) years of the program alone. However, the gun carriers that abide by the law that you must have a carriers permit are the ones being blamed. When I become President, I will bring back in order programs like Project Exile. Even I have a carriers permit, and I wouldn't want that taken away from me just because of a bad choices that a select group of others make.
Now let's speak on police brutality. It also does exist. I agree that some people, especially within the Black Lives Matter movement, have been negatively affected. But at the same time we have to give power back to the police, because we have to have law and order.We have to give strength and power back to the police. You’re always going to have bad apples but the police have to regain some control of this crime wave and killing wave that we have in this country. Some say that I should be focusing more on mental health than police brutality or gun control, but that is only partially correct. All of these issues are equally important.
