The "Gun Problem": Does It Truly Exist in America?

 Disclaimer: This post reflects only the opinions of myself, Michael Pamon, and no one else.

Guns. Man-made weapons invented to discharge a projectile. Since their creation in the 12th century, many people have viewed guns as weapons of murder and destruction. Many also view them as cultural necessities, especially in the United States of America. The second amendment to the Constitution states that every citizen has the right to "keep and bear arms." However, there has been a disturbing rise in gun violence the last few years in this country, and it is evident that we have a major gun problem...or do we?

Does the gun problem truly exist, or is it all a part of Obama's "liberal agenda" to "get rid of the guns?"
