One real issue we must deal with in order to expect the amount of gun violence to go down is the entertainment with which children now grow up with. In movies, superheroes used to be blemishless and charismatic always choosing the right, and supervillains were evil and outrageous almost to the point of being silly. But now, superheroes are becoming more and more corrupted showing their signs of weakness as they struggle to make the right decisions. Supervillains are now becoming more relatable…
Gun violence has been a concern of mine ever since Sandy Hook. Even though there were other tragedies prior to that incident, Sandy Hook took place when I was in high school. I was at the age where I fully understood what happened. My school started teaching/informing us about safety procedures if something like this were to happen. I distinctly remember that day, innocent lives were lost. I never thought much about the issue of gun violence but when that specific tragedy happened my views on…
With every gun that is made, innocent lives have the opportunity to be lost. People are afraid to go outside because they’re aware of all the violence that has been happening in Chicago. Many families can’t get to work or bring their children to school because they’re afraid their children might get injured. Chicago’s gun violence has had an extensive effect on people that lived in Englewood. Passing more gun laws can affect Chicago’s Englewood community in many ways: such as decreasing the…
problem of gun violence here in the U.S. The second amendment of the Bill of Rights states that “ a well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.” This statement is interpreted many different ways depending on the person. I think the second amendment states that you have rights to own a firearm, but to protect yourself and your property. It is unconstitutional to take their right to own a gun away,…
because I have many guns and I love to shoot them. When I used to live in Sacramento I used to drive outside of Sacramento and go to a out door gun range. The topic of guns is a very big argument in America. Some people love them, some people hate them.

look around first then he pulled a gun and he shout allahu akbar. Then proceeds to pull the trigger. In American, In order to discourage act of violence you need gun. For self defence, Or its just to…
how to deal with violence and shootings is widespread in America, but is the solution really completely “legally Banning” guns? Legally banning guns would potentially only restrict law, following citizens from possessing guns and leave guns only in the hands of those ignoring the law. This does not address the safety concerns with gun violence. The Second Amendment should remain in the Constitution. However, there should be a federal or state law requiring that individual gun owners who…
In 2015, 12,223 people died because of gun incidents. Gun violence is a substantial issue that should not be taken lightly. Gun violence should not be taken lightly because many people are losing their lives at faster speeds because of guns and the people who choose to pull that trigger and take off the safety. After thorough investigation we found that gun violence is a serious issue but there are other issues to worry about relating to gun violence that are important and add to the death of…
Guns have been a controversial topic since the founding of the United States. Our forefathers decided that "a well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed". Our founding fathers would have never imagined how the 2nd amendment would be interpreted today. In 2018 the United States has an average of 96 gun deaths per day according to Everytown Research and there has been over 50 mass shootings since…
Guns have been a hot topic in the United States for decades for many reasons. Most of the controversy revolves around The Second Amendment which states, “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed” (U.S. Const. amend. II). On one side, we have people who take The Second Amendment very seriously. These people argue and firmly believe that The Second Amendment should not be changed and it should…
