Gun Control Debate

He supports his argument by saying that making strict gun laws will lead to a time where only the terrorists and bad guys will have guns, leaving the other citizens unarmed and unprotected. He believes that the people are responsible for killings with firearms and not the guns. The first and second debaters in text 2 share the same attitude towards gun laws as Donald Trump. The text compares guns with cars. It talks about that even though cars kill many people every year they are not banned, so why should guns be banned.

In his response, Stewart comments that "we have to strict blood alcohol limit, raise the drinking age, enforcement penalties for the drunk driver that help bring drunk driving rates down; I don 't know by 2/3 in a few decades". Stewart comment seems funny, but he uses the same logic that Ventura uses to prove his point. If people take steps to lower the number of drunk drivers, they take steps to limit child deaths in auto accidents, accidental poisoning, etc. Why people will not take steps when it comes to gun control? Mostly pro-guns extremists use slippery slope fallacy in all their debates, and they look for sly opportunities.

Furthermore, More than 1,300 children commit suicide with guns. We should keep children away from guns for their own safety. In conclusion, guns control laws is very important and necessary because the stricter Guns Control laws can reduce the crimes, make our lives safer and protect our children from these massacres. We need stricter gun control laws to prevent more people from perishing in mass shootings. This should no longer be a question of if these laws would infringe on a freedom that Americans

6 states already require “active shooter drills”, drills styled after school shootings to prepare students in case of such emergency. These drills have raised controversy, with parents and students saying that the drills “break their heart” or make them “feel

Gun Control: And The Arguments On The Subject Have you ever shot a gun if so you have probably felt adrenaline. So when most hunters think of guns they think of fun and their lives would be changed. Gun control has been a battle back and forth between different views for years around the world. In this subject for every argument there is a counterargument. But since the gun control we have now is cutting down on shootings but not limiting hunters or anybody who uses firearms legally most people think that we should keep the same laws.

The government is debating about guns and if the age range should go higher or lower. This can change America's future by a lot, not in a good way like how caterpillars change into butterflies. Guns should be held by people with experience like police officers or the military and guns should be held by adults at least in their 30’s because, kids and new adults can do crazy things, people can use guns for harmful activities, and a mass shooting occurs because of legal gun selling. First, when kids, young or new adults have guns, they can do crazy things. On the other hand, older people are wiser and lived through life and know what can happen.

This shows that gun free zones are targeted the most like schools which shows that gun laws don’t work because of the amount of mass shootings in these restricted zones. We have had to many shootings in gun free zones and we have to loosen up restrictions in these zones and increase security in these zones to combat the criminals that do their sick acts of terror. The background to my paper will be talking about the mass shootings to backup my claims I will use 4 examples of mass shootings that happened in gun free zones and 2 happened to be at schools where children study. The first place is a school named Sandy Hook elementary where in Newtown, Connecticut CNN claims “Adam Lanza, 20, guns down 20 children, ages six and seven, and six adults, school staff and faculty, before turning the gun on

The assassinations of political figures, the murder of John Lennon (1980), and other assassination attempts against Regan forced the Congress to pass the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act. The Act underlined the need for a background check on persons owning guns, transporting, or even purchasing firearms. There have been continued advocacy for and against gun ownership. However, the gun ownership debate has been fueled by happenings in the United States that have led to a divide in opinions. There have been many instances of shootings in the United States.

This can create more potential shooters causing schools to believe they are unsafe thus having a need for increased security. My mom’s friend, Kate, had an experience with a school shooter while teaching. Kate was teaching a third-grade music class, and as the children walked in a father walked in with one of

So therefor people believe banning guns will solve the problem of school shootings. Yes the shootings are awful but there are many other solution to stop school shootings like having more officers and locking the doors 24/7. The United states has had a lot of homi cides and yes many of them have been done with guns but that doesn't mean all of them were done with guns. There was around 11,500 homicides done with guns in 2006 and the rates are all over the place nowadays but out of the millions of people in this world that is not that many of people yes it's really say that they had to die like that but there is really not that many people. Most people are either all about banning guns or dont want them banned but everyone has their own opinions and can express them in their own

Governor Jerry Brown’s gun control bill also require current semi-automatic AR-15 rifle owners to register their rifle to be categorized as an assault rifle before January 2018 or will face the consequences of being a charged, if caught, a felony for owning an unregistered rifle. Many gun activist are outraged by the bills and called it unconstitutional. As one activists stated during a protest in Sacramento California, “They are infringing on our rights, and we are not going to stand for that” (Foggatt 2016). Many activists said they will not comply with the new gun control laws. However, many citizens and state legislature believe that by introducing the gun control bills, it will lessen the chance of mass shooting like the San Bernardino, California that killed fourteen and injured twenty-two people or the shooting in Fort Myers, Florida that killed forty-nine and injured fifty-three people.

The nation in return rose to action and changed to insure safety across America. The Sandy Hook Massacre affected the US tremendously, creating awareness, more school security, and a new effective lockdown procedure at schools. Nearly immediately after news broke out of the shooting, people asked how a man who was so sick in the head could get a hold of so powerful of a rifle. The nation however had no answer. Gun laws had been in question before, but now after the funerals of 20 children the United States had to change.
