Answer: The purpose of the footnote to paragraph 4 is that It provides an additional fact related to the Civil War.
<span>The two major alliances
competing for power were the Triple Entente and the Triple Alliance. The Triple Entente alliance is formed by the
countries of Britain, France, and Russia; while, Austria-Hungary, Germany, and
Italy are the countries that form the Triple Alliance. These six countries were
the major powers of Europe and they formed series of alliances that caused the
two warring sides of World War One.

Generally these countries were
forced to fight a war with each other without exactly knowing why. Panic and
conspiracies were built around these alliances where one country thought that
the other is attacking so they had to secure each of their specific sovereignties. </span>
1. Freedom. Taking away a persons right to bear arms is taking away part of a persons freedom.
2. Protection. Since when do criminals keep the law? They will find ways to get guns, and when they do, we will be unable to protect ourselves.
I think what we should do, is before a person buys a gun, we should make a complete background check, but I don't think we should EVER have our freedom taken away.
