Hillary and the Gun

In the online Internet article http://www.ontheissues.org/senate/Hillary_Clinton_Gun_Control.htm one can find Hillary Clinton’s position on Gun Control. Clinton is said to have a very strict stance on gun control. According to ontheissues.org, Clinton is said to believe that guns, if in the wrong hands, are the cause of crime, violence, premature death, and unnecessary conflict in the United States today. Hillary is said to have supported and will continue to support, tougher gun control legislation. However, she believes that real long-lasting impact can only be achieved if she has the support of the entire American public. With the help and support of one of her colleagues Senator Charles Schumer, she has come up with a solution to cutting down on the crime and violence in the United States. She has purposed a piece of legislation, which would require that all new handgun purchases must be put into a national registry.  All citizens seeking to be new gun holders would be required to obtain a state issued photo gun license. She believes that this will help keep children safer and provide a more stable country. Ironically I am surprised to find myself agreeing with the New York Senator on the piece of legislation. I do not agree with trying to outlaw guns entirely but I do find it a very good and smart decision to make it a little more difficult for people to purchase a firearm. I believe this would dramatically reduce the negative impacts guns can have on a society.
