Much of the debate has focused on gun regulation and keeping deadly weapons out of the hands of potential killers, particularly those with mental illnesses. Unfortunately, far less attention has been dedicated to the impact of gun violence on victims.

There are many debates about gun violence and gun control, but no one can really find the common ground to stop the violence.

She developed an article about the ongoing debate about gun violence, called “Gun Debate: Where is the Middle
About 55 million people in the United States own guns. Most of them would most likely be against gun control. I am on their side. It is unfair to the people that the government would control them and not let them have guns. While they think it is for the good of the people, many do not agree. In the 1900’s, gun ownership went up. As a result of this, crime rates went down. If citizens owning guns makes crime go down, why restrict them from being owned?

Gun Control Trint Rogers I am going to talk about gun control. In my opinion, people should have to have a license to carry a gun. I believe that the amount of people getting shot might go down. If lots of people are getting shot the people that are shooting shouldn't be able to carry a gun. I have evidence that they shouldn't be able to carry a gun. Almost 60% of the United States with a gun carry them without a license. A fact is that 6-9 people carry a gun with a license though

situation you have two options, to either go for your gun and protect yourself, or make a break for the phone and wait for the cops to show up while your life is at risk.
