How Should the Government Establish Gun Rights?

The argument over gun rights between the Republicans and Democrats has been going on for a while and I decided to put my voice into the situation. I believe that gun rights should be allowed, but with some limits. I want people to be able to own guns and to be able to defend themselves with guns if someone were to threaten them or if someone were to break into their home. However, certain guns shouldn't be allowed to be sold like automatic military weapons because those are deadly when put into the wrong hands. Also, people who wish to purchase a gun must be able to or know how to use a gun with evidence that they are able to, and the only people that are allowed to purchase a gun are people who don't have a criminal record or a drug problem. Guns must be put into the right hand and it is way too easy for someone to purchase a gun and there are a large number of military weapons being sold which is unnecessary for a civilian to have. People must be limited on who can get guns and on how they get guns.
