The Silence of the Law: The Charleston Church Gunman

The Silence of the Law: The Charleston Church Gunman

Our text alluded to many catastrophic events that have impacted the United States greatly. In recent news, nine people were gunned down and lost their lives while at church surrounding a hate crime. Writer Binoy Kampmark stated that “arguments about guns in the United States resemble forays into intense religious debate.  They are doctrinal issues (the “right” to bear arms; the entitlement to protection) that chatter through the various lobbies.  There are purely quibbling legal issues (what regulations are appropriate in terms of controlling access to guns).  There are the broader ethical issues (should people even have guns as a principle to begin with?” (Kampmark 1).  Each massacre posses concerns for the protection of the citizens and to whether certain laws needs tighter and stricter restrictions.
