==One Answer== The United States government is not trying to interfere with your right to gun ownership. There has been a struggle over the Second Amendment for centuries. There has always been individual lawmakers on both sides of the issue. The ones who seek stricter regulation of firearms believe that will have an impact on the easy availability of guns by criminals. The opposition thinks gun owners should be protected at all costs. The present administration has supported the latter and the anti-gun-control lobby has always been stronger than the opposition. Many people think the opportunity for gun control has passed. Guns are now a part of the fabric of American life. In answer to that dilemma the gun lobby proposes that every American should be armed in order to protect themselves from gun violence.
