    Divided America: Analyzing the Contradiction of Gun between Right and Control under Trump’s Presidency
    (UNIVERSITY OF ABBES LAGHROUR-KHENCHELA, 2021) Ghanem Ahmed Lakhdar - Kenzari Rabie Chihab Eddine
    Abstract In the last decade, gun violence became a fact of life in the United States of America. The main problem in this issue lies on how Trump‘s efforts to balance between gun rights and public safety in the country. With the controversial debate in Congress between Democrats and Republicans that centred on whether regulations on individual‘s rights to use arms would save lives and reduce crimes or not. This study adopts the historical and analytical approaches in order to examine the gun violence from different perspectives. Proponents of gun control legislation assert that enforcement of gun control laws secure the lives of people. By contrast, opponents assert that prohibiting people from exercising their right to bear arms would not reduce crime and that individuals would have adequate means for self-defense.
