October 1st, 2017 was when the deadliest mass shooting in US history occurred. Stephen Paddock began shooting into a Las Vegas country music festival, injuring over 500 and killing 58. Even after this occurrence the US congress is progressing with a measure that makes gun silencers more available to gun owners. Yet the government still refuses to put in place strict gun control laws to decrease the amount of mass shootings.

This relates to the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, regarding the second amendment. In my opinion we need more gun control laws, I think people confuse this as taking away guns and immediately go straight to their rights. Or "the only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun, is a good guy with a gun". Well, that isn't exactly true, that only works in some circumstances.
