There has been a persisting problem since the beginning of time, and that is the killing of innocents, not that killing criminals is any better. This year in the United States, there has only been twelve days where innocent individuals haven’t been shot. There are 365 days in a year, and only twelve days, no one has been shot. Twelve days. That really says a lot about a country, especially one deemed as the greatest country in the world. Nothing says great about people being shot and having no…

A contributing factor for these school shootings is that each of the shooters was given access to guns even though they had mental issues. The Columbine shooters had a friend buy their guns. Howard Pankratz, form The Denver Post, reported that a co-worker of Harris and Klebold introduced them to Mark Manes, the guy that sold them the guns they used in the shooting. Harris and Klebold met up with Manes at a gun show and purchased one of the guns used. This purchase was illegal since both Harris…

How Much Gun Regulation is the Right Amount? The idea of changing current gun regulations has been a raging controversy for the last decade. Violent shootings and massacres have risen a belief that taking guns away from the American Citizens would reduce violence and prevent such atrocities. There’s also an opposing side that fears losing their rights to bear arms. Both sides of the issue have good points in their arguments. There’s a saying that’s been around for awhile that says “Guns don’t…

The case of whether guns should be banned is very controversial. Some people believe that guns need to be better controlled, while others say that they should be banned. In the article “The Case Against Banning Guns” there are many strong arguments against banning guns. I think that the most important point in the article is that even if there very fewer amounts of guns, or if they were less accessible, people who really want to do harm would still find a way to get a gun. In the text, it…

who wants a gun badly enough would still be able to get one.” Shiha is intelligent because there is no way everyone would hand over their weapons. Firearms make people feel safe in their homes which is an enormous reason people wouldn’t hand them over. With everything going on in the world right now who would blame someone for the desire to keep their weapon. Nobody knows what will happen when they wake up for another day, which is the main problem with the world today.…

Guns Don't Kill People, People Kill People Throughout United States history there has been a constant debate on gun control. Should guns be banned even though it is one of our civil rights infringed upon us by our founding fathers or to ban it because of the events that have transpired in modern time? Either way gun laws have become progressively strict based on various shootings, massacres, and deaths across the nation. America's gun culture stems from colonial history and revolutionary roots.…

Snyder claims “The United States is the #1 in the world in gun ownership, and yet it is only 28th in the world in gun murders per 100,000 people” citizens will get them illegally and just like immigrants we won 't know how many of the illegally owned weapons are out there. Moreover, one should focus on more difficult ways such as having gun tests to know the safety procedures one must do to be able to obtain a gun, and verify by means of the government that they are being kept safely and legally…

The advantage of buying gun safes made in the USA is that you will be supporting the US economy. However, searching for the right safe can sometimes prove a difficult task. You have to learn how to cut through the hype to find a real gun safe. Some of the gun safes sold today are nothing more than a thin metal box, and real security goes behind this. You do not want to buy a cheap gun safe that burglars can easily pry open. In addition, you want the gun safe to protect your firearms in the event…

gun into the world. I can see this law being helpful in some areas and detrimental in others. This law will put guns into the wrong hands that don’t know how and when to use a weapon properly. They state that they will keep guns out of denied hands, however, there are no licenses that prove they are not allowed to carry a weapon. I am all for restricting gun laws and putting guns in the right hands. I believe that will reduce crime; however, putting guns into the wrong hands can end up becoming…

After reading the two articles about gun control, my stance on the issue has been greatly influenced. Before reading the articles, I thought that guns should have stricter laws just because they were dangerous, but after reading them, I’ve realized that there are many more reasons that the US should adopt stricter gun control regulations. The leading reason why I think this is because gun regulations will likely reduce high crime rates, like they did in European countries and Australia after…
