    Gun Control is an strong issue in the U.S, I personally am against it. I think this because we need a way to protect ourselves from criminals or animals. And some may say criminals will not have guns to commit crimes with. Criminals will find ways to get guns illegally. Also people say it’s not fair to shot a criminal if they have a knife, it should not have to be fair if they are going to rob or kill you The United States has 88.8 guns per 100 people, or about 270,000,000 guns, which is…

    Gun crimes sadly, in my opinion, are on the rise in our society. Pre-Columbine Massacre, our society had gun violence but it was not televised, on every channel or on every page of the newspaper. Social media has been a huge part of the reasoning behind violence being so open to society.

    Destiny Barrett 4A Recently there was another shooting, this time in Oregon and it was specifically targeting Christians. Our society thinks that if we pass tougher gun laws that it will solve all the issues revolving this. Trump states, “ No matter what you do - guns, no guns, it doesn’t matter - you have people that are mentally ill, and they’re going to come through the cracks, and they’re going to do things that people will not even believe are possible.” I agree with him 100 percent…

    Imagine, one of your rights being taken away from you, or being restricted. That’s happening right now. Gun control is being inflicted after the Oregon shooting in a community college. In 2011 a gun was used in 323 murders, that same year a hammer was used in 496 murders (Hawkins). Clearly a household item is just as dangerous as a gun, especially when it’s in the hands of someone who desires to do wrong.
