Not Who They Use to be

Over years people have been raised to think that if you own a gun your a bad person, but that's not true. We all know that some criminals do own guns. That doesn't mean that only criminals own guns. Not only has it been said that only bad people have guns, but a big stereotype is that black people own guns, all black people own guns, and that means there all bad. This is not true at all.

People are owning guns for protection, and these people aren't just criminals. Not only that, but not only are there black people out there that do not own guns, and are no where near criminals, there are white people who are. Our society has gotten so bad as the years have passed, there are many people who own guns, and there not bad people at all.



Cops own guns and there not bad people, and people who have never broken a law are not bad people. If we take away guns from the good people, the criminals are just going to go out and get guns the illegal ways, like they do now. Then people who don't have guns for protection can just get hurt .



A lot has changed since years ago, people need to remember that not all criminals own guns, and not all gun owners are criminals. We need to stop stereotyping people without knowing who they are, or the way they live.
