Gun Control Debate In The United States

School violence is becoming a worldwide issue, but is a particular problem within the United States. Violence can occur in many ways such as; bullying, school gangs, physical attacks, and fatalities involved with guns. School shootings have been on the rise over the past several years. To bring awareness to school violence, teachers, staff, and parents need to be further trained in noticing warning signs of depression and anger issues which may lead to bullying and disrespectful learning environments for all parties. In addition to awareness within schools, the debate over gun control has been a topic discussed for many years in hopes to curb school shootings.

The debate over gun control in America continues to trouble politicians to this day. According to the constitution, the second amendment gives us the right to bear arms (U.S. Const.). Many different interpretations of what precisely the amendment means exist in this country. However, the two main sides include pro gun control and against gun control. In this paper, we will weigh the pros and cons of both sides and with any luck approach a conclusion on what side performs a superior job. People interpret gun control as the problem, but realistically gun control laws do not cause the issues, however the people that enforce said laws do. Scrutiny over gun control reached an all time high recently and addressing the scrutiny helps find the solution.

The term ‘gun control’ is used to show the regulation of selling, owning and use of guns. This means there is going to be a lot of controversy regarding this, making it a very touchy topic for a lot of people in the world right now. Gun control laws vary greatly, for example in places like the United Kingdom, where the gun laws are so strict that even police officers aren’t allowed to use them. Only special task forces within the police departments are. Compared to places like the United States, where there isn’t a federal gun control law in place anymore. Opponents argue that it is unconstitutional to take away kind of gun from an American citizen. They also argue that it is not the guns that commit these horrible crimes, but instead it’s the people behind the guns that commit them. But a gun is a tool that can be used for good intentions or evil intentions. And in most cases, the bad ones have a heavier effect or outcome. The US should enforce strict national gun control laws that will in the end help save the lives of men, women and children because if they do not, they will be seeing more tragedies through the country just like the one that had happened at Sandy Hook Elementary.

Gun control is a law that controls how guns are sold and used, and who can own them. Allowing people to possess and use a gun with legal documents in the United States is legal. There have been arguments on whether or not is should be legal to own a gun as some people see it as beneficial and others do not. It is believed that guns are beneficial to have, and they are there because we need to be able to protect ourselves. We should not allow the government to have power over gun control for many reasons including the loss of tradition of hunting, not being able to protect ourselves, and simply because of the second amendment.

The gun control issue has recently created a massive uproar throughout the U.S. due to some major horrific events such as the Virginia Tech shooting in 2007, where 32 people were killed, the Sandy Hook shooting in 2012 where 27 people were killed, mostly children, and the Columbine shooting in 1999 where 13 people were killed, (CNN) as well as many others. To some, it is a crime issue, to others it’s a right’s issue. It is, obviously, a safety issue, an education issue, a racial issue, and a political issue, among others, and within each of these issues there are those who want more gun control, the Democrats, and those who

In the past few years Gun control has become a hot topic throughout America. With all the shootings going around the United States, we are faced with controversies over gun control. Americans believe that their government is going to do whatever is best for them, but is that true when they are trying to strip us of our rights that were created for us over 300 years ago. Our country has been thriving with the amendments and laws set before us, and today we are trying to change them. But by just changing a few laws is that really going to stop a criminal from getting what they wanted, there criminals for a reason. Our second amendment gives us the right to bear arms and protect our selves from enemies foreign and domestic. This is the foundation of country; we fight to keep the right that were given to us, so that we can protect our families, our country, and our freedom.

After eight years of Gov. Chris Christie's tumultuous tenure, a period marked by great promise and neglect, New Jersey is facing daunting fiscal challenges. The public employee pension system is troubled despite a landmark fix in 2001, the transit system is crumbling into Third World status, and the public school funding law has never been properly funded. These menacing problems could only be resolved through a just and able governor who would be able to fix and develop intellectual solutions to recover the state’s economy. When prompted to pick between the two candidates running in the gubernatorial 2017 election, it is apparent that Phil Murphy would be the most beneficial candidate in fixing much of the economic disaster left  unsolved

Gun control is a topic that is heavily debated in our country and has been for a while. Since the ratification of our Constitution, the 2nd amendment has been interpreted very fluidly from many different groups and people. Ranging from the National Rifle Association who believes that our 2nd amendment right should not be restricted at all, to our current president Barack Obama, who believes the process of obtaining a gun needs to be stricter.

Of all the developed countries, the United States has overall the highest per capita rate of gun homicides. In the year 2015, Americans witnessed 372 mass shootings, and somehow it has become “normal”. The topic of gun control has been a huge debate for some time. Earlier this year, President Obama implemented executive actions on gun control, ultimately aiming to lower the gun violence and deaths occurring every day. However, this topic of debate will not be over anytime soon, that would mostly be due to the strong lobbying group the NRA having influence on Congress, and gun right activists.

Here we are again, stuck on the intersection. The recent shooting on a primary school in Newtown has brought up the debate on gun politics, one of the most controversial topics in the United States, again, and right they are. Since year and day it has been an ongoing problem, and the country seems to be split in two, with on one side the people who think their right to bear weapons is too important to let go and on the other side, the people who think that is exactly the problem.

One of the most debated and talked about issues going on today concerns gun control. There are many different aspects being brought up with concern to gun control. One of the biggest this past year especially here in Texas is the issue of allow-ing conceal carry on college campuses. College campuses are usually gun free zones, but with so many shootings happening on campuses some want to be allowed to carry. A lot of people are for infringing upon a person’s constitutional right to life and

The debate over stricter gun laws has been ongoing in the United States for quite some time now. Individuals who oppose stricter gun control laws argue that the second amendment to the constitution of the United States constitute part of the bill of rights that protect the right for American citizens to bear arms, and any attempt to set up laws for gun control will be a direct violation on this (Hofstadter 10). They argue that the primary purpose of the amendment was to ensure that American Citizens had the capability to protect themselves against criminal activities and defend the country against external aggression. From a personal perspective, the recent surge in instances of gun violence in the United States of America indicates that stricter gun control laws are necessary for the safety of the American citizenry. Thus, this paper is going to focus on highlighting the benefits of more stringent gun control laws and why members of the public should support it.

Do you feel safe knowing your neighbor has the legal right to own a weapon that could end your life? Gun control in America has been a long fought out debate. Republicans typically believe that it should be entirely legal for Americans to own guns because it is their right from the Constitution and they need it to defend themselves. Democrats typically believe that guns should not be legal because they are dangerous weapons and they can be abused by violent people. The debate over gun laws has continued to divide American because of the many topics that people similarly address yet differently view and the different topics that some people solely argue and some completely disregard.

What a better topic to choose than gun control in America. With so many incidents of mass shootings on American soil, is disgraceful. The most recent one at the Texas church, I definitely think the government has to take actions and do something about it. There are so many sick people out there and all they want is to harm innocent people and we cannot control it unless the government comes with a plan. In my opinion, I think social media is a major factor as well due to the fact that nowadays everything gets recorded and uploaded online. The news is another major factor because we do not know when they are reporting the truth or lying to get more attention from the viewers. If we all take a step back and compare with the rest of the world,

Gun control (or management of firearms) pertains to regulations or laws that supervise the production, sale, movement, ownership, refinement, or utilization of guns in order to restrict crime and lessen the damaging results of violence. These laws differ considerably around the world. While advocates of gun control mainly argue that extensive gun possession escalates the hazards of gun brutality, opponents contend that gun control does not diminish crime and breaches individual rights. Gun control, in it's entirety, has been a greatly talked about issue in the United States. The 2016 Presidential election also hasn't been shy to bring this matter to the forefront, with Trump and Clinton being two of the biggest names to discuss it. To begin,
