into a school building. The secretaries ask for your name and then they let you in. You could easily pretend to be someone else. Although gun violence has been becoming more common, conceal carry would help a citizen or teacher protect…

Throughout the course of the years, there has been a series of gun shootings in schools, universities, and public places. Unfortunately, these gun shootings have ended with a profuse amount of casualties instilling fear and melancholy in our society. Although several individuals firmly believe that guns are essential in the quest for survival and it is their right to bear arms, they do not realize the potential dangers of a gun in the hands of a ludicrous, impulsive individual. In a modern era,…

Texas Law states that “a person can also shoot someone they if they reasonably believe deadly force is necessary to prevent someone else from trying to kill or seriously injure them, or there is the threat of certain crimes such as sexual assault or aggravated kidnapping” (Schwaller, 2015) This was a law set to protect what one considers valuable, whether it be his or her own families or even just to protect oneself from harms way. In 2007 there was a man who saw his neighbors’ house being…

great fear of a dictatorial government that encourages the idea that a gun is needed for safety and protection. This same concept furthermore explains why there are over 250 million guns in our society. Both students and teachers should be allowed to carry concealed weapons on school, especially and of course, on college campuses. This is because the brandishing of a weapon can force an active shooter to recoil or change his attack plan. It would also give those being attacked an opportunity…

extensive training, not everyone can be trusted to just carry them around especially reckless young adults. Although it is against the second amendment saying that you have the right to bear arms, Guns should not be permitted on college campuses due to the fact that some individuals are just unable to handle the responsibilities that come with weapons of that caliber, and having guns at school scares people away from an education. Being able to carry concealed weapons to school may throw…

dangerous to people. First, the guns would lead to an escalation of violent crime. The students will get rob on their way to class. The campus does not have metal detective to screen the student. Some student will be carrying guns without legal papers to carry them. The crime in the New Orleans campus is not as bad as the violence that took place at another campus. We should all remember that a bullet has no name on it. When the students leaves class late at night, they could be killed over…

The day begins just like any other in a quiet, small town, when out of nowhere a suspicious man enters the local bank and confidently states that this is a holdup. All of the innocent bystanders inside the bank are physically incapacitated initially out of fear as the bank robber brandishes his intimidating firearm while giving directions to the civilians not to move or speak unless exclusively instructed to do so at his command. The man also warns them not to try anything sneaky or else he will…

and for the most part everyone there is caring a firearm. Do you ever hear of mass shootings at these places? No, because criminals are not stupid they know they will never make it out alive. If a concealed carry permit holder says forget the gun free zone sign or just didn’t see it and carries the concealed weapon into an establishment, and turns out they needed it to protect themselves. The criminal could press charges if they’re not dead, but even then the person protecting themselves could…

Guns: Stay Safe When I drop my kids off at school, I take my gun off of my hip, (which I have a license to carry) and place it safely in my truck. Why do I do this? I do this because plastered on the front door of my children’s school the sign reads, “No Guns Allowed on School Premises.” With that being said I want to take a second to ask you, over the last 10 years, how many school shootings have occurred in America? According to the credible website I have found in my research, “Since 2013,…

shooters would be deterred by a heavier presence of guns on a campus. Finally, individuals who have a license to carry are not necessarily proficient with their weapon and almost always have no training on how to handle a dangerous situation.
