It's arguable that the current gun control laws in the US are stretching the constitution to the breaking point. Anything much stricter and it would be impossible to maintain the fiction that they're compatible with the 2nd amendment.

Should there be stricter laws on owning a gun?
No. Stricter laws for owing a gun does nothing to stop crime or to keep criminals from buying guns since by definition, criminals don't buy guns legally. Maybe the debate should be extended to crazed psychopaths with guns? Obviously the laws need changing.

Why are gun control laws ineffective?
Some argue that gun control laws are ineffective because they primarily target law-abiding citizens, rather than criminals who obtain firearms through illegal means. Additionally, criminals can still find ways to access and use firearms even if stricter gun control measures are in place. Moreover, the effectiveness of gun control laws can vary depending on the specific policies implemented and the enforcement of those policies.
A researcher claims that 62 percent of voters favor gun control?

Can stricter gun laws decrease gun deathes?
Best answer is "MAYBE." There are many "gun free zones" in which law-abiding citizens won't carry a firearm, but a criminal would. In fact, criminals can take advantage of "gun free zones" because they know that their potential victims are likely to be unarmed. Now, if the government can ensure that guns are kept out of the hands of criminals, then stricter gun laws SHOULD help prevent gun-related fatalities. That's the tough part, criminals, by definition, don't obey laws.

Congress should enact stricter gun control laws including a possible ban on all semi-automatic firearms and guns with assault-weapon features in order to solve your high crime rate problems?
No. Look at the most recent FBI numbers. Crimes committed with any type of firearm are at an all time low. Even if laws were stricter, gun violence would be the same, since criminals get THEIR weapons illegally, or from the Black Market. Making it harder for the average citizen to go buy a gun at a local gun store wont lower gun crimes, it will only make the innocent man defenceless (as well as infringe the second amendment right), and the criminal will STILL have his illegally imported guns, so then, criminals will all have guns, and the innocent, law abiding people will not. Just remember, the "bad guys" don't buy guns at gun stores, they get them illegally, the people who buy from gun stores, are the patriotic, law abiding citizens. Making gun laws stricter will NOT lower crime.
