Argumentative Essay: Do Kids Have Guns In School?

know before you go off to college. You parents do the same thing, in a way, so as a parent they want the kids to be safe as much as possible. If the school is that dangerous, just have better security around the school. Have more police than usual guard the school. The kids may still feel uneasy about this, but that is better than having a teacher possessing a gun, because the police are trained with firearms and will make better decisions. They are used to being in chaotic situations, and usually make the right decisions on the fly with things as dangerous as guns and killers. A teacher is not ready for that, a few lives could be taken before the teachers reacts and stops the murder.

As ridiculous as it sounds to ban toy guns, there is a

valid reason behind it. If you are buying your little boy or girl toy guns like nerf guns, pellet guns, or BB guns, it is not the smartest thing because he is just going to get comfortable shooting it at trees or other objects. When they get older, they are going to start shooting kids with it because that is just what kids do. It is going to hurt a little bit, but kids think causing each other pain is funny. It could just be by accident as well sometime they could just point the gun at a friend because it is just a joke but that is usually a disaster waiting to happen. I say a disaster waiting to happen because last January a cop killed a 17 year old kid in New York because he was holding a toy gun to a detectives head. Politicians want to ban toy guns because they say they are too realistic. Officers do not know if the gun is real or not, so as any other cop they are going to take a chances of that gun being real and detective’s life being at risk so they are going to shoot. “Police do not have time to figure out if a gun is fake when faced with a life-or-death decision” (“Toy Guns against the Law: Should Toy Guns Be Banned?”). It is tough on police when a situation like this happens because either way something bad is happening either decision they make here. They either kill or injure a young kid or the detective gets killed because the gun is actually a real one. Police go through a lot already constantly arresting criminals or pulling people over for speeding. They always feel like they are the bad guy and I know some of them do want to be that guy even though they have to do it. None of us could imagine that pain of killing by accident trying to be the hero of a situation like this, you can do nothing but feel bad for them. Something tragic like this can easily be stopped from happening again if toy gun become banned. If that was your kid that got killed by that cop because you bought him that toy gun or that he wanted to go buy you would for sure support this decision needs to be finalized by the government.
Exposing pre-teens to violent video games could mess with their head the wrong way if they are playing game like this at such a young age.

For example Grand Theft Auto Five is what kids and everyone is playing now a days. In that game you are constantly killing people and the graphics are getting extremely detailed. You use to only be able to play that game in third person mode which does not look as realistic when you are killing somebody for you missions. Now, you can play in first person mode and that is a terrible mistake the game made, because in that mode it actually looks like you are actually killing people. You are going around committing mass murder stabbing people and shooting everyone. It is not a good message for kid because they could get older and do what they did in the video game but it is actually lives they are taking. That game is rated M for Mature and you need to be eighteen to play that game which makes since because you are mature enough at that age. As parents no matter how bad the young pre-teen wants the game you do not need to get it for them because you are the parent do not feel bad for not giving them what they want. The government wants to become stricter selling violent games to minors. Some stores think that is a good idea. Other stores argue and think some violent games are okay for 13-17 year olds to play. The government just does not want kid to grow up killers because they have been exposed to violent games at such a young

age.
