Gun violence with has been the cause of the deaths of many American adults and children. According to BBC News, there were about 372 mass shootings in the United States in the year of 2015. There was 2015 Umpqua Community College shooting that had killed ten people and wounded 20 by the end of the day. People thought of the shooting with a collective shrug which means that they saw it as another common occurrence and ignored it. The collective shrug shows how America has been comfortable about shootings. There is one major reason why these shootings occur, faulty gun control. The second amendment, which gives us the right to bare arms, states that anyone has the right to own a weapon, but the amendment does not allow gun owners to use it for the wrong reasons.

It is no wonder why there is something wrong with our nation’s gun control: the lack of safety training, the weapons themselves, the process of obtaining a weapon, and the ineffective laws. Without immediate changes, there will be more dominant disorders, like more violence, in our communities. How did gun control become so out of hand? Well, people are exploiting the second amendment to go beyond what it states. Some people might want guns for hunting and protection, while some people want guns to attack or antagonize their communities. For example, a madman going crazy in a community. One way to reduce the…

A Target Worth Aiming At With an average of 4.3 million firearms being added to the United States each year, gun control is one of the most rapidly growing problems in our nation. The right to bear arms was the 2nd amendment in our Constitution; so obviously to our forefathers this has been a very important ideal since the beginning of our nation. Without implementing some sort of law in the coming years, all citizens will soon be in danger. According to the National Institute of Justice,…

“Social Darwinism” is a term used to imply natural selection to humans. It generally means that some cultures or races were naturally “better” than others, and it was exploited greatly during the age of colonization to justify imperialism. The Europeans technology, economy and government were far more advanced than any other race at the time. They mass produced the arquebus, used to take over south America. Due to this, they used social Darwinism to tell everyone that it was the Europeans that…

Routines are a part of the human nature. We wake up, get dressed, and carry on our day with whatever we have planned. What if your routine consisted of grabbing a glock or an Arquebus and aiming at another human being and pulling the trigger? Wake up, fight, kill, survive, sleep. That routine is something child soldiers undergo every day of their lives. Kill or be killed, they say. The disputation of child soldiers has been going on for years and years. On one side of the debate, people insist…
