With the increasing politicization of mass shootings. There are growing calls to restrict or eliminate the constitutional right of American citizens to bear arms. Although some 36% of American households own a gun. A majority of the population favors more gun control. The debate divides the nation like no other pitting rural against urban interests and the common people against the cultural elite. By the time of America's founding, the right to bear arms for self defense was fundamental for all Englishmen.
