Gun violence in the United States

Guns are one of the most controversial and debated-upon topics in America today. In the Constitution, Americans are given “the right to bear arms,” and many Americans are proud of and believe strongly in that right. Though, that right has been constantly misused. Homicides by gun are at a higher rate in the United States than any other country in the world, mass shootings are at an all time high (many of which have occurred in the past two years alone), and terrorism has been at an all-time high

Where Bias Comes From Words are the world; however, words don’t mirror the world. We depend on vocabularies or words to form thoughts, to interpret ideas, and to communicate with others, and it’s needless to say that we share the same physical world; however, we see the world through different perspective and we use different vocabularies to interpret what we absorb from the objective reality. Consequently, we use different words to describe the unitary reality. For example, if a botanist, an artist

Gun control laws Introduction: I believe that gun control laws will actually increase robberies, murders, and other crime. Think of it like this ok, you and your kids are sleeping in your beds. Then you hear your front door being kicked in. You see people walking around your house stealing your tv’s, your kids game systems, computers, and jewelry. You begin to go for the phone and call 911, but they see you and they start to run at you and your kids with a knife. Would you rather have a gun or

One of the largest issues being discussed today is how can we effectively control guns and limit, or eliminate, gun violence. There is a very large amount of solutions out there, some that are good and some that are not so good. The solutions I have found and will discuss in this paper have been proposed by Todd Miller of Huffington Post, Evan DeFilipps of Washington Post, and Matthew DesChamps of Stamford Advocate. The solutions these authors have proposed just do not solve this issue in the

believes there is a problem with gun control, a problem that we do know the correct course of action. With laws, NRA, and groups standing on both sides of gun control, we will never see the truth. Is a good guy with a gun the best way to stop a bad guy with a gun, or can we stop them with words? Would having teachers armed with a gun stop a student, or anyone from coming on school campus and open fire? Should Americans change the law on gun control? So many questions on gun control, but no one right answer

owned guns make up 42 percent of the worlds gun supply according to CNN.com. That statistic may seem small on paper but it is actually a surprisingly big chunk considering it is out of 644 million gun owners in the world. After hearing that statistic it should be no surprise America has one of the highest gun violence rates in the world. America also has high rates suicide by a gun and mass shootings. Everyone should agree, something needs to change. Though a large percentage of gun violence in America

Gun Control Law should be More Strict. In society today, there are many casualties from gun violence cases which are very big social problem. There was shooting in Las Vegas on OCT. 2017 which killed more than 50 people and more than 500 people were injured because of gun violence. Also, there was another mass shooting in Orlando at nightclub by “radical Islamic terrorism” which killed 50 people and lead more than 53 casualties (Brander). Admittedly, some people claimed that they should have the

needs after a gun related incident. The American Psychological Association mentions coping with the aftermath; discussing the event, turning away from news and gathering your emotions with a break, or even helping others do something good (A. 2017). Firearm violence prevention is crucial; not only to save lives, but also to prevent hurting individuals psychologically. New York Times, and The Atlantic have different perspectives on firearms, but all the same intent, to end the violence between Americans

The topic I chose to study was gun regulations. 2. My topic is socially significant because many people every day die from the result of gun violence. I wanted to search if there was any way we could improve our gun regulations, and thus reduce how many people die from the gun violence. 3. The most surprising thing I learned doing my research was how oppose the NRA (National Rifle Association) is to any change in gun regulations. They are the main reason many new gun regulation rules are never passed

twenty children suffered a tragic death when twenty-year-old Adam Lanza killed them. This shooting sparked the debate on the issue of gun control. In current years gun violence has multiplied considerably in various parts of the world. There are greater cases of kids and teens engaging in violence or getting caught in the crossfire. There have been debates over whether gun legal guidelines are strict and what else can be accomplished to lessen such acts from taking place. With greater lives being affected
