Gun Control
The ARP believes that people kill people, not that guns kill people. We support our second amendment and believe that citizens have a right to own guns. However, we recognize that the number of crimes committed with guns is unnecessary high and that there needs to be some control. Background checks are necessary so that people with criminal records cannot get access to weapons. Also, people with mental illness should not be allowed access to weapons. Some gun control is necessary, but we still need to follow the 2nd Amendment and not take away people's rights.
