The debate over guns is heating up once again, following this weekend’s massacre in Orlando. In the past year, Americans have been buying guns in record numbers, as people look to protect themselves, or fear further regulations. Do mass shootings make you more supportive of gun control, or more likely to want to purchase a firearm to protect yourself?According to the FBI, nearly 12 million firearm background checks have been conducted so far this year. That is about four million more compared to last year at this time. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation, that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands? — Patrick Henry, 3 J. Elliot, Debates in the Several State Conventions 45, 2d ed. Philadelphia, 1836 |
