Banning Cars Persuasive Letter

Improved Essays
I am writing this letter to you to inform you on the danger of automobiles. In conjunction with your support for banning guns, since they obviously kill people, you must push for the prohibition of all cars, since cars cause accidents and numerous deaths. We must ban together to take back our streets before cars run us all over! I believe that you, an elected official, are failing to fulfill your duty of preserving the safety of the citizens if you will not consider solutions to the terrible and completely preventable hardships caused by cars.

What some people don’t know is that a pit bull is not a breed of dog.…

    It has come to my attention that you, among few other Republican representatives, show sizable consideration toward the integration of gun laws and restrictions in our country.
