shootings have only increased the the United states, children are being shot at school and you wonder why the United States Government is continuing to allow our students and teachers to die?

Regulate Guns In the United States, we will let almost anyone purchase a gun. We need to regulate these dangerous weapons and provide a safer environment for our citizens. There has been a debate in our government for a long time concerning how and when guns should be regulated.
