1 answer:

6 0

As a result of World War II, Korea was liberated from Japan and divided in two: Communist North Korea (supported by the Soviet Union), and South Korea (supported by the US).

In 1950, Kim II Sung, the leader of North Korea, invaded South Korea in order to unify both countries under his command. In response to this invasion, President Truman ordered the US forces to aid its ally and reject North Korea advances.

Even when the conflict resulted on military stalemate, the United States proved the ideals of the Truman Doctrine by controlling communist invasion in the context of Cold War.

One risk of the government restricting citizens’ Second-Amendment right to bear arms might be which of the following selections?

cluponka [151]

The answer is: A

The Second Amendment states the right of an individual to own a firearm as well as the right to form a regulated militia.

As such, we can deduct that the purpose of the amendment was made to not only protect an individual's right to own a firearm, but in case of an unjust regime, be able to fight against it through the use of said firearms.

Restricting a citizen's right to own a firearm, will in turn decrease the ability of citizens to stand up against an unjust regime.
