While Americans have the constitutional rights to keep and bear arms – and protect their property from government’s unlawful seizure, people in strict gun control states like California, New Jersey and Massachusetts are having their guns taken and destroyed illegally. People don't have the will power or money to spend thousands on legal matters to get back a $500 gun, so this is continuing to take place. This is being seen as a violation of second amendment rights, but is only being carried out due to people's failure to comply to laws set forth regarding gun possession. There are two very clear sides to this issue, but I believe that if one has a gun, they should be able to show the proper papers and licences if asked.

I think that there should be regulations on who can own a gun such as a background check but such restrictions do violate the 2nd Amendment and isn't right.
