Chemical Weapons Convention

a result of misuse of the weapon. It is an extremely sad reality that there are so many lives lost, when it comes to what is supposed to be something used for protection. The AR-15 has been used in several shootings, examples being the Aurora theatre shooting, the Clackamas Mall shooting, and the shooting of 26 people at Sandy Hook Elementary. People who are against this gun’s use point to the shootings and say that it is not a good idea to have a military grade weapon on the streets. Gun…

debate about the school shootings instead ignoring the topic. The schools could have training at their schools to prepare for the shootings. Another way is to have background check for the ownership, tracking the guns, banned on the automatic assault weapon and to prevented other mental ill people to not able to buy the guns. Third is the U.S. people should have the licensed for…

More people have been shot by the police than people that died during the Iraq War*. Cops cannot be trusted with these weapons, as is shown in the Mike Brown case in Ferguson, where police officer Darren Wilson shot unarmed teenager Mike Brown and didn’t get arrested. Since January 1st, 735 people have been killed by police officers, a number which is still rising**.Without…

amended on the type of guns that citizens bear. But, as soon as anyone mentioned about the "The Second Amendment" the next words that followed, is this Oh, they want to take away our guns. No one wants to take away guns, but who need high powered weapons to do hunting. How many shots do you need to take to hunt for your food or play sports? People with mental health issues also commit atrocities with guns. There need to have some form change with…

having more gun laws in America would lessen the number of murders in America, however I think that having more strict gun control laws would do nothing to stop criminals from getting guns or killing people. Criminals will always find a way to get weapons. To prove this, handguns in the UK have been banned since 1998 and the murders have actually rose in numbers. For this reason I think gun control laws would not stop criminals from getting guns There’s still murder in countries where guns are…

America is unlike any other country in the world when it comes to guns. The number of guns in the US is extraordinary as Sager shows in this statistic, “there are 88 guns for every 100 people living in the United States (not even counting the illegal weapons which our government couldn’t account for)” (Sager). Managing this many guns would be a monumental task. There is no guarantee either that the government could properly account for all of these guns even if they tried to tackle this beast.…

America’s contagious mass shooting epidemic is spreading so rapidly that America endures more mass shootings than any other county in the world. What makes America so susceptible to the infiltration of mass shootings? Many would argue that it is the result of excessive amount of guns we possess as a nation plus the easy access to own a gun, but others would assert that it is the result of ineffective mental health care. Despite the ongoing controversy, one conclusion that the nation agrees with…

These type of issues put military style weapons back on the spotlight and give more attention then what it had before. My topic is proved because more and more people are doing this because they see more schools getting shot up. Putting an action to this right now instead of more and more people and families are going to get affected by this and this is gonna start a way of more people trying to get their hands on one of these weapons. This same weapon is getting used to put an end of innocent…

If teachers have access to the weapons, an intruder could also gain access only increasing the potential for violence. Concealed handguns in the schools would be kept in a secure area and teachers and administrators would have strict procedures in carrying the gun on school grounds. There…

issue that should be addressed way more than it is right now,but gun violence is not the only issue,guns are not the only weapon that people use to commit crimes,there are knives, bombs etc. According to the CNN article ‘American Sniper’ widow: Gun Control won't…
