With the recent controversy with guns, local and state/national have been trying to set their own laws. They both are fighting for power over power to control guns. They both have taken each other to court and have made…

More Highly Regulated Gun Control is an Effective Method of Reducing Crime Gun control generally refers to laws or policies that regulate the manufacture, sale, transfer, possession, modification, or use of firearms.

Argument Paper – Gun Control vs. Pro 2nd Amendment Argument ENGL 123 Jesse H. Dixon Embry Riddle Aeronautical University Worldwide It’s should come as no surprise that the gun control argument in America is fiery and emotional, with logic and civility most often being pushed aside by frustration, fear and anger.

Americans have for guns, which emerged from a frontier past. This romanticised US gun culture created the NRA and the NRA has perpetuated and further exaggerated what the American gun culture is and the value of guns to maintaining freedom.

While it is easy for Americans to demonise the NRA as an all-powerful organisation of “gun nuts”, in reality…
“Get a Knife, Get a Dog, But Get Rid of Guns” by Molly Ivins was written to show gun holders a simple alternative of self-defense. Ivin’s point is very clear that guns control laws should be banned, or at least restricted.To get her point across, she uses techniques like sarcastic humor and examples of politics to help justify her personal beliefs on gun control; guns are destructive and should to be regulated, better yet illegal. In order to ease into her argument, Ivin starts her piece…
giving a “B” to this program. I like it because it discusses a common big problem facing the Country “Gun Violence.” The program called awareness to the correlation between domestic violence and mass shooting and the important of keeping guns away from abusers.

I think it is more necessary to thither…
