Role of Guns in America

The role of guns in America as of now is terrible, From people shooting up homes to people shooting up schools. I, personally don't think that the "role" of guns is going to get better. Sorry to be pessimistic, but the way this world is set up, people are literally going crazy. Now don't get me wrong, there is nothing bad about carrying a gun, just as long as you only use it when you feel as if your life may be in danger. There was also some talk about whether they should ban guns altogether and I don't quite know if I agree with that. I think maybe they should look into your background to decide if you should be able to get a license to own a gun.
