Is Gun Control Beneficial

Gun Control: Is It Beneficial? In the increasingly liberal society that we live in today, gun control is becoming more and more of an issue. Colleges are having to enforce to gun laws that weren’t even thought of in the past 10 years. In June of 2015, East Tennessee State University revised their firearm policy to create a safer and more educational learning environment. In a situation much like the one at ETSU, this policy is much needed. On the contrary, there are some small things about gun control that could cause large problems later on.
