Research and Reading Log

My topic compares the government’s view of gun control in the 1800s today. This topic is important because the government’s view has changed drastically over the years! I think it will be very interesting the see the differences. The government in the 1800s amended the Constitution to add the people’s right of gun ownership. Today, though, the government is trying to take it away.

This week I plan to do a lot of research. I changed my topic, so a lot of my sources are irrelevant to my paper. L I plan to look up newspaper articles and letters from the 1800s regarding the Second Amendment. I will also research topics concerning the government banning ammunition and gun control. Lastly, I will research any laws the government has been trying to pass that make it harder for the American citizens to buy guns.
