Which statement supporting restrictions on guns is most clearly based on the language of the Second Amendment? A. The more advanced weapons we have today should be kept off the streets. B. All gun owners should be required to keep the guns unloaded at home. C. Because so many people are killed by guns, no one should be allowed to own them. D. Only people who are members of a militia should be able to own guns

Respuesta :

D) only people who are members of a militia should be able to own guns

The correct answer is D.

The Second Amendment to the United States Constitution protects the right of people to keep and bear arms.

This Amendment is very controversial especially among people advocating restrictions on guns. They support guns ownership solely by police and other law-enforcing bodies, not ordinary people.

The Second Amendment states that ' a well regulated militia being necessary to the security of the state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed'.

Therefore, the gun ownership should be controlled and limited, and ordinary citizens should not be allowed to have arms at their disposal.
