In some countries, ordinary citizens are allowed to keep a gun in their homes. Some people think this is a good idea, while others disagree. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

There is a debate over whether the personal possession of a
gun
should be justifiable or not. Both views will be discussed in
this
essay and I believe that the latter view is more persuasive.
To begin
with, there are some reasons why people can legitimately possess a
gun
. For one thing, people can protect themselves with a
gun
, especially when they are in a hazardous situation. There might be a moment where public power,
such
as police, is vacant.
For example
, if they are threatened by robberies, they can use their
gun
so as to immediately escape the danger. In spite of the reasons mentioned above, I reckon that private
guns
should be illegal.
This
is because,
firstly
, it leads to unsafe surroundings, causing abuse of the
gun
. To be specific, it would give rise to not only serious injuries but
also
jeopardy of life provided that someone accidentally shoots others. In fact, there are a lot of random shooting accidents in countries where the government grants to carry a

Furthermore
, the probability of a shooting accident is much greater than encountering burglars.
Secondly
, the legitimation of
guns
is deleterious to educational aspects, making children exposed to gratuitous violence. Children who grow near arms are more likely to be tamed by drastic ways to resolve the problem compared to the other kids who live without
guns
. In a nutshell,
although
some people contend that a
gun
is needed for self-protection, allowing to keep
guns
has more demerits of safety and education.
