The Effect of Gun Control

The gun control may have reached some of its objectives. The credit goes to the law necessary to implement the Brady background checks of all individuals who have a firearm without a license. Since its adoption in 1994 and 2000 were about 30 million background checks, including 689,000 people of a license, which is equivalent to a rejection rate of 2.3% refused to run. These denials have contributed to that weapons do not fall into the hands of criminals, as the official statement by the FBI for any reason, the Ministry of Justice. The total number of basic controls necessary for 11% from 8.6 million in 1999 to 7,700,000 in 2000. Total control from October 1999 to September 2000, the total number of waste was 2.0% (153,000). About 59% of the emissions occurred because the applicant has a criminal or under indictment in this case when, like last year was 72%. The amount of death was significantly reduced in the1990, but after 2000 the rate of decline leveled (Krousar, 2002). According to the Department of Justice of firearms, most of these deaths, which is the preferred choice of secret weapon for most of the offenders.
Since firearms contribute the main reason for murder and felonious assault, part of the decline in their availability can be found in the decline of the crimes attributed to him. A rough estimate of the availability of firearms in the country of the national production of small arms used, shows that the production of small arms in the early 21 th century has slowed, but is increasing again (Department of Justice, 2007) . Given the findings of inspections, however, possession of firearms can say Brady was maintained over the past decade are increasing (Bureau of Justice Statistics, 2008).
Although the figures may suggest a significant decrease, the concern is more than one, because of unprecedented levels of violence in schools recently in the hands of students and young offenders seen. This is the main cause of arms control advocates have called for stricter rules in this way, because apparently these people have access to guns too easy. Events like the Columbine massacre in April 1999, the Virginia Tech massacre in April 2007 and other incidents like the only place in Binghamton, New York, has participated on April 3 is a Vietnamese immigrant shot 13 people killed in an immigration center before committing suicide to make enough money to free the fear in the hearts and minds to stir up public opinion. While in the case of students, experts in charge of this violent video games and bad parents, but in the end, each student has had easy access to the problem of weapons. Statistically, these events are rare, but the publicity surrounding the horror immediately send weapons to the public, which requires action. It 'true that the advocates of gun control support, the question of the locks on all weapons and the Brady law enforcement at gun shows, which became a huge hole in the law, because gun shows are not administered by the State .
