A man got shot by his girlfriend today in Boston! Everyone has heard storylines similar
to this one but people are hearing more and more about them it seems like everyday. Some
people think there should make laws about gun control. However, others would disagree about
having gun control because according to the second amendment it gives U.S. citizens the right
