In life, so many things have led to the orderliness we enjoy in the society but still, some of these inventions are also possessing serious problems in the society. Though we know that there is no advantage without disadvantage, while some of these inventions are helpful in their respective ways, humanly it is causing great crises.
Immediately I saw this topic, the idea that came to my mind was guns. Guns are one invention that protects humanity but at the same time is dangerous. Gun is a weapon used by the military for defense. Society would have been lawless without the use of these guns.
Guns are one instrument that help promote lawfulness in society. I can't imagine a society where there are no armed forces. Such society will be full of lots of atrocities and lawlessness, although there are still measures that could be used to restore orderliness but the police men, navy and soldiers we see on the roads wouldn't have been valued the way they are respected in the society.
While everyone thinks guns are saving the world, the advantage is something that we would still have an alternative to if we really want to abolish the use of guns.
While in some countries, the use of guns is legalized and in others it is not, there is no country that does not make use of guns both directly and indirectly. In some of these countries guns are legalized, the laws state it is for self defense but we all know that we can still defend ourselves in the absence of guns.
Using my country as an example, many citizens acquire these arms for wrong doings. Some get hold of these arms from the corrupt armed bodies who want to promote lawlessness and evil deeds in the society. Some go as far as using these guns for illegal practices like theft, stealing, cold blood murder of another, occultism, among others.
While many will think guns are saving the world, the danger it causes is more advantageous. But it has been widely accepted that citizens use these arms in their cupboards without the people in power putting an end to such. People are robbed on the road and killed with guns and that's the end of their existence.
The government is in the right position to enforce something that will lead to the end use of these illegal arms by demolishing where these arms are illegally produced, conducting and enforcing proper checks where necessary in order to promote a healthy and peaceful environment of living.
Since the invention of guns, there has been no change in the reduction of crime rate in the country. Instead, there is a high level of ill practices which maybe if there is no gun, the rate wouldn't be how it is today. Something that takes life should not be promoted and many are using it and this many are not being caught or no attempt of arresting or finding them is made. We boost the morale of others to find access to one and start terrorizing others with it.
