Shootings and gun violence have become more rampant over the years, especially in college. In the United States shooting on college campuses is becoming more common. Every 15 minutes a college shooting occur. For the safety of the campus’s students and faculty, guns should be allowed on college campuses. Most people feel safe when there is a gun near or around. People tend to feel a sense of security when they know they have something to protect them. In the article, Matthew Miller states,…

age six killed his sister Adriana of seventeen months. He was playing soldiers with a gun his father had in the the case of an emergency. Adriana was crawling on the floor when he unintentionally pulled the trigger and shooting her in the head. Guns are hazardous, we should not allow them on campus. When in danger an individual will not shoot what they are aiming at. The first time a young boy holds a gun in his hand ready to shoot a deer he will notice his hands shaking uncontrollably. He…

In 2015 there have been 39,875 gun-related incidents leading to 10,022 deaths by guns, so far. This number is more than any other first-world nation and this is not only because we sucha have a large population. The main contributor to gun violence in the US is the permissive nature of US gun laws. In the US it is easier for a person to be able to buy and shoot a gun than to be able to fish or vote. This is a problem that needs to be fixed now before any more families have to grieve for the loss…

public health, safety and welfare through strict gun-control ordinances. They are undermining gun-control ordinances since there is a profitable market for illegal firearms in Milwaukee. Firearm manufacturers design and advertise their guns to appeal to the significant market for illegal firearms. This includes those who wish to use them for criminal purposes. Firearm dealers are aware that these multiple purchasers are one way in which guns…

recently taken place at Stoneman Douglas High School has raised the question: Should guns be banned from being sold to the general public? Although I myself have never owned a gun, I still do not believe that the rights of other Americans should be infringed upon; however, such a statement does not mean that I do not want any kind of restrictions when it comes to acquiring these firearms. Though they should not be banned, guns must be made much harder to purchase, which means new legislation…

is just a line in a script and move on, but how true is the quote really? Think about what has been going on in our country today. Our people have been split in half having to pick sides on many matters. Specifically one of those matters is gun control. The gun control debate has several different sides to it. What people are not looking at is the cause of these shootings. The media of the world has a horrible influence on the children that grow up in it. These children are seeing horrible…

Gun control isn’t the answer. As a law abiding citizen I follow the rules and make sure that my gun is in a safe place at all times. The key problem that people don’t realize is that guns do not shoot themselves but instead they are shot by the person who holds it whether they are of stable mind or not. Many think that by placing gun laws into effect it will reduce violence but the truth is that it will actually cause more harm than good. Take for example drugs and other substances they are…

Four months into the year and already there are 2,837 gun related deaths. Over 200 guns were used for these deaths, 167 were obtained legally and 39 were obtained illegally. Even with the protective powers of clear backpacks and daily bag checks, more and more gun related deaths occur. State governments have given the ideas of supplying teachers with guns to protect our students, but what if the teacher is unable to protect our students. Again we are left powerless and unshielded. What if the…

When it comes to the topic of gun laws I am strongly convinced that we will never meet an agreement among everyone in the United States. Then again, I am confident when I say there is nothing in the world that will ever produce a mutual agreement between everyone. Due to varies opinions and beliefs. This is just how the world has and always will work. Many topics are in debate and forever will be, such as abortions, politics, marijuana usage, gay marriage, taxes, and so much more. For example, I…

United States has been in a conflicting stance on guns, as some people oppose the idea of the government taking away their guns as this act would deny them the second amendment while others have been for eliminating guns from the equation of entirety, as it leads to many homicides and mass shootings over the years. The question then arises: Do we need a strict gun policy or eliminate guns completely? As research suggests, in the United States, guns can be linked to many things like suicide,…
