Gun control is a huge deal to me and the rest if America. It is a huge deal and there are two very
different sides. Guns are used for many reasons and they are protection against criminals/
animals. Or others see it as a weapon to hurt others and used to harm animals. And hunting a
recreational activity for ages one to one hundred.
People should be allowed to carry guns and should have the right to do so. With the proper
background checks and safety tests. Guns protect people from people and animals. If a
criminal held you gun point that wouldn't be good. Also in Alaska and Montana bears attack
people every so often it would suck to be in that situation say on a hike and not close to any
civilization. I read an article about how a grizzly charged a man and his wife and he fired off

three shots at a close distance and scared the bear off. And he ultimately beloved that it saved his life. Also many situations where someone is in a life threading situation and the gun saves them.
Guns are great for protection and they are a great tool for everyone. People should carry
guns.
Gun control does not work. For example Colorado has a limit on forty round clips but before the
elementary shooting it was alright and they didn't come door to door asking for clips. Many
many people have those clips and a law will not stop it. For another example look at Mexico
they have some of the most strict gun control in the world. That is not the crazy part yet they
also have one of the highest gun violence rate and mortality. If that does not help you I don't
know what will you want to take away guns from civilians and the people who use them the right
way. It does not get much clearer than that you take away guns from civilians and guess what?
The criminals will still have them look at Mexico! It will not stop because they are criminals if you
took guns away good people will not have them but bad people will. Let's use cocaine as an
example illegal and bad, good people don't have it but bad people do rules and laws don't stop
them. That will make everything way worse because criminals won't give up their guns. That is
why is you want gun control in the United States it would not
work. Also a other big topic on guns and gun control is, the question on if teachers should carry guns. And that is a no without a doubt a great idea. Guns are for protection, and that would make me as a student feel much much safer. I know we all hate to hear it but I will bring it up is school shootings. There are some messed up people out there and they do stuff like that. Let's take Roosevelt high school for example. There is one person in here with a gun that's not safe to me at least and he has always pistol and people who shoot schools have assault rifles. One is not enough at all. If a criminal came into a school they would only have one problem to deal with. I feel like we should have at least five or six in the school. Of course with the proper training and background checks. I'll be honest with you there are people on a plane that carry and make planes safer for one people on the flight. And I just don't understand why we can not have them in schools because that would make me feel safer. Also would be better for people not wanting to even mess with the school. I just feel that the school would be a much safer place, and then we would not have to worry as much about school shootings and make people more comfortable. Guns are a great tool for hunting and shooting and protecting agented criminals. Guns do not kill people people kill people with guns. Forks don't make people fat people make people fat. Guns would not make a school more dangerous they would make them safer. What needs to change is giving Americans guns and having teachers carry as well. It will make things a lot safer and more comfortable. Gun control is a huge deal to me and the rest if America. It is a huge deal and there are two very different sides.

Tragedy after tragedy, people find themselves mourning over the lives lost. And over and over again, they look back to see how they could have prevented it. People continue to argue and constantly debate what actions should be taken, and while doing so, more and more people lose their lives at the hands of gun violence. It’s clear to see that not much has been done to keep these weapons out of the wrongs hands: the shootings at Columbine High School and Virginia Tech have shown that. What would happen if there were to be another devastating shooting to occur? How would people react? Or would they just argue some more, while the wrong people can still easily get a hold of guns? The only way they can ever gain control of anything is by controlling the source of the problem, where people are able to freely purchase guns without restrictions. In order to reduce gun-related crime, unlicensed gun sellers should be required to run background checks on their customers.
criminals expected to get a gun illeagily the same day they get out of prison.
Law abiding citizens should have the right to protect themselves against criminals. You are less likely to suffer an injury when attacked if you are carrying a handgun, as opposed to other methods of self-protection. The right to carry a concealed handgun is protected by the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. The U.S. Constitution states “the right of the people to bear arms shall not be infringed” (ProCon.org 1).Carrying a handgun could keep a lot of people from being killed during a public shooting incident. Concealed handguns protect citizens from violent crimes such as burglary and robbery. Most criminals are armed and you don’t have much of a chance of survival if you are not carrying a
McMahan backs up his premises by showing that in other “Western Countries, per capita homicide rates, as well as rates of violent crime involving guns, are a fraction of what they are in the United States.” (McMahan, 4) After reading this statement, we are to assume that those countries have more gun regulations, and ultimately our limited gun regulations and access to firearms are what is driving so much violence within our country. Gun advocates deny this claim,
Allowing people to carry guns openly may be the answer to fewer guns on California streets.

Second, we should ban the possession of handguns, because the homicide and robbery rate in the U.S. is much greater than in Canada where there are stricter handgun laws. From 1987 to 1996, 52% of all homicides in the U.S. involved handguns while only 14% of all homicides in Canada involved handguns. Also, between 1987 and 1996, firearm homicide rates increased by 2% in the United States but decreased by 7% in Canada. Furthermore, handgun homicide rates in the U.S. are 15.3 times higher than in Canada. Finally, firearm robbery rates in the U.S. are 3.5 times higher than in Canada.
Why do people hurt themselves? In a journal article from the American Journal of Psychotherapy, Louise Ruberman notes that about 2.1 million teens suffer from nonsuicidal self-injury, or NSSI. Young women between the ages of 14 and 18 years old take part in NSSI due to poor development of the relationship with their mothers, childhood abuse, and psychiatric disorders. Although there are multiple ways of causing injury to oneself, cutting of the skin as a means of self-mutilation is said to be the most common (Ruberman 119). We will start out by examining the problems that occur during the relationship development between a mother and a daughter at a young age.
Americans are faced with a huge problem of violence in the streets, these streets have become a place where old people are beaten for their social security checks, where little women are attacked and raped, where teen aged thugs shoot it out for some turf to sell their illegal drugs, and finally where small children everyday are caught in the way of bullets during drive by shootings. We try to ignore the criminals in our society and how they hurt it, but we shouldn’t. We should take actions to stop these acts of crazy people. And people try, but the hard work of some misguided individuals to stop the legal ownership of guns doesn’t really affect the problem at all, and takes the guns from the innocent citizens, who simply want means of self defense.

The gun control topic is one of the most controversial themes in the United States. Many citizens worry about the facts that guns are getting out of control and crime is increasing. I think there are solutions that will help to have a better control of guns in the U.S, such as reducing military weapons, reduction of capacity of magazines, and increase the age for buying guns to 24 years old.

Right to Carry a Concealed Weapon Who has the right to carry a concealed weapon? Some people have different views on who should carry a concealed weapon. I believe certain people should have the right to carry a conceal weapon. A weapon is not a toy and should not be able to put in everyone’s hand.
Men and women of America have the right to keep and bear arms to protect themselves. Guns prevent crimes from happening countless amount of times each and everyday. How would you react if someone late at night came bursting into your home would you dial 911 or pick up your .45. The problem for most a lot of Americans is they do not know what to do when an immediate threat pops up and then they only have a few seconds between life or death. Citizens need to be able to protect themselves so that they will not be a victim of crime and live a happier more relaxed life.
