Second Amendment

"A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

The second amendment allows people in the United States to have possession of Arms. This is a very controversial amendment, because a lot of people are not in favor of people being in control of guns. 

This amendment was approved in 1791 which was a very long time ago. Things have changed quite a bit since this was included in the Constitution, and from my point of view possession of guns is not necessary anymore. I might have this opinion because I come from a country where people are not allowed to have Arms (Spain). Nowadays we have police that usually look after our security and protect us and we also have amazingly prepared armies when things get into more dangerous situations. 

This video helps us understand if Gun Ownership is a Right in the United States. It helped me a lot since I am from a foreign country. It breaks down what this amendment is actually saying in a very clear language.

I really liked this image because it shows how the creators of the constitution and we the people are the ones that have allowed guns to be legal in the United States.
