Adam Lanza was a 20 year old man so his mom would have trusted him and known that he wouldn't harm anyone, which he did.

You say that people above the ages of 16 should be allowed to have a gun to protect themselves, but what if they bring it to school? In 1975 a 16 year old got a gun to school and he shot and killed a teacher and 13 other students before killing himself. That clearly shows that people even when they're 16 years old or older can still harm others and not always use it for protection.

The Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting was one of deadliest shooting in grade school or high school yet the gun wasn't bought illegally.

In a new executive order they have repelled background checks, so yeah you can walk into a walmart and buy a gun. Dylan Roof was an ex convict and he didn't use the gun to protect anyone he used it to kill those nine African Americans.

Argument 1

The fact that right now in the US an ex convict or a mentally unstable person can go into a walmart and buy gun. It almost seems as easy to buy a gun as it is to buy a coffee. Now isn’t that scary and irresponsible but we can make it better by imposing proper background checks that prohibit those who are not capable of handling such weapons have access to those weapons. These background checks must be comprehensive to ensure minimum mistakes. After all its peoples lives we are talking about so we need to be more careful. There need to be background checks and not just check if their had a criminal past, they should also check about their mental health. On June 17, 2015 Dylan Roof when into a church in Charleston where he killed nine African Americans, in a racially motivated attack. He used a gun from a gun store in Charleston, he had been arrested earlier the same year for drug possession and trespassing but he still was allowed to get the gun. If they had done a proper background check on him then he wouldn’t have been able to buy a gun. Even though my argument is logical and the right thing to do it wouldn’t find any takers in the US government since they have stopped taking background checks in the US off an executive order.

Opening Statement:

26,819, 13,286, 14,869, 372, 1,870, 475, 64 and 265. I'm not just stating random numbers, 26,819 people were injured by firearms, 13,286 were killed, there are 14,869 more gun stores than grocery stores in the US, 372 mass shootings, 1,870 people injured in those mass shootings, 475 killed, 64 school shootings and 265 kids accidentally shooting themselves or someone else with a gun, and all this has happened in only 1 year. If there were more restrictions on guns then maybe there wouldn’t be as many shootings or deaths.
