The second reason is, to enforce safety classes on guns instead. There are people in the world that have huge safety classes worldwide. Heidi Cifelli, Manager at the American Rifle Association says that there is a program called Eddie Eagle that promotes gun safety classes. The Eddie Eagle program has been nationwide since 1988. Over the years, there has been more than 13 million kids that have learned the Eddie Eagle Way. Cifelli also said that the best way to saves lives is to promote gun education. Not everyone has the chance to know about safety. According to Dr. Stephen Hargarten, chairmen of the Emergency Medicine at the Medical College in Wisconsin, he says that gun education is a less controversial and more direct way to teach about
Imagine a world where school shootings did not exist. Parents could send their children to school without having to worry about them being shot. In 2013, thirty school shootings took place in the United States. The most devastating school shooting in U.S. history was the Bath School shooting. On May 18, 1927, Andrew Kehoe entered the Bath Elementary School killing thirty-eight people and injuring fifty-eight. Kehoe then returned to his truck, and committed suicide by using explosives. School teachers would have a better chance, in high risk situations if they carried guns.
Guns have been accepted in society for many years now, even before the second amendment provided U.S. citizens the right to bear arms. Conflicts can arise with having the ability to carry around a gun. Guns should not be encouraged tools in a college setting. If students try and bring guns on campus it could cause fatal incidents to happen. If someone has a disagreement they could possibly shoot someone. Educational campuses should be safe and gun free especially when it comes to the youth. Also there is no need to have a gun on hand if there are law enforcements on campus.
An evolving and highly debated problem that continues to grow in our society, is the gun control epidemic. Gun violence in America is a national epidemic. Many people carelessly take advantage of Gun use and manipulate the tool without much thought to any repercussions. Many lives have been loss due to people legally or illegally obtaining guns and taking matters upon themselves to be executioners in holding other people's lives in their hands. Specifically, ongoing gun violence in schools have become a horrific catastrophe. It is putting student lives at risk, in a place that is supposed to facilitate a certain level of safety for the students. According to the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence, there was 558 gun incidents in schools
“The right to bear arms”, an amendment so prioritized by our founding fathers that it earned the very second spot on the list of birth rights as Americans. However, with constant tragedies striking the United States, such as massacres in public high schools and universities, mall shootings, and attempted assassinations on state representatives, it’s no wonder law makers are constantly debating the topic of gun control.
This lack of education can be found everywhere which is surprising considering it is our right to own firearms. We as American need a set amount of hours and schooling to be able to drive, a privilege most people do not realize they have. Now why is it that our government has focused more on controlling weapons than educating people about them? We are required to attend drivers education yet once you turn eighteen the only requirement for a firearms licence is a background check and no required education. Thankfully most states require a safety course to be takng before an individual can legally carry his or her firearm. This is a step in the right direction it is unlikely to happen any time soon because the people are arguing if we should be able to own guns not how can we teach people to use them safely. There are too many accidental deaths by a firearm per year yet nobody ever seems to acknowledge that this problem even exists. The category with the most deaths by a firearm is suicide with a shocking 60 percent of all gun deaths in 2015 (Sanger-Katz, 2015). A disheartening statistic that can not be reduced with gun control which is why I think it is often overlooked. The media often looks at the total number of gun related deaths or just the murder percentile. Even in my search for the total amount of gun related death recorded in 2015, I was having trouble finding the total statistic because most records are specifically related gun
Allowing teachers to carry guns will allow teachers to prevent school shootings on the grounds of preschool through college campuses. Everyone has their own opinion about teachers being able to carry guns including other teachers, parents, and government officials. Depending on what state the teacher is teaching in determines if they can carry their gun now, if they are in the process of being able to, or if their state is not passing a law to allow them to carry their gun while at school. Teachers would not stand out like police officers or security officers would while in the school which would allow for other teachers and all of the students to have normal days if schools did not have officers before. Research shows that allowing some teachers to carry guns in their school promotes school safety, protects the teachers and students, and promotes gun safety while still teaching their students.
I believe you’re using APA and you did a good job of doing that, but you need to put your title on your first official page (the page you actually start your essay). I also think you should come up with a better title than just gun control, I mean what about gun control, your title doesn’t give me any insight on what you actually will be talking about dealing with guns. Going through it I can sense what you are trying to convey but the title is a little bland. Also, you cannot have your reference page on the same page as some of your essay, so the last page needs to JUST be your reference page. Speaking of references, I’m sorry to tell you, but you have no academic sources in your essay, no primary source either. You just have popular sources. My advice is go on websites
In this section the author talks about the Second Amendment how it is strangely phrased and for most of American history, its meaning was thought to be somewhat murky. “A well-regulated militia composed of the body of the people, being the best security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.”
Significantly, gun play has increased over time, and students are not realizing what harm they can cause. Students have brought guns into schools before, both real and fake. Students who bring in fake guns usually are able to get off on a referral. A referral is an act of referring someone or something for consultation, review, or further action. When teaching gun safety to students most instructor’s goals are to teach children hierarchical skills. This means teaching them skills in order of ranks. Students have been caught bringing guns into school since the late 1800’s. In the last ten years more than 100 school shootings around the United States have occurred. The most recent shooting
The gun that killed 17 kids at lest. There are protests planned, and nationwide school walkouts many more to come unless you do something. Seventeen deaths can make such a difference in school nationwide. Congress is telling people we couldn’t of done anything better to be prepared for this incident. Emma Gonzales a former student of Stoneman Douglas High School. “ Said, no law can prevent gun violence”. Also in the video she had with CNN she asked Dana Loesch “do you believe it should be harder to obtain semi-automatic weapons”. The whole time Dana was going around, and around she never answered Emma Gonzalez question. Until Sheriff Scott Israel, stood up said what Dana couldn’t say. He answered her question. “That Teens/Adults should be on
All the issues facing Texas, my major concern for the state was the ability to carry guns on campus. I mean, Universities are dangerous places. Controversial math classes, sorority bake sales, wiffle ball tournaments, foreign exchange students, and books. So many books. We should shoot them...the books. In fact, we should do away with universities and just teach self-defense classes and how to survive in the wilderness. I'm not saying I am against it but why allow them in college campuses? We go to school to learn and feel safe. This is why now I take online classes because to be honest I get frightened and even though many college and university campuses have said no guns allowed, there is always going to be someone who will bring one and
Despite our whereabouts everyone main concern is gun violence; there is always an argument concerning guns. Should be mandated or not? Is it life or death situation or plain old homicide? With that question being asked by Americans nationwide, should students be allowed to carry guns or campus? Or should we fear that they all will use it for all the wrong reasons intended?
As of November 2017, the new policy permitting staff members and teachers of the Kern High School District to carry firearms on school campuses is provoking a great deal of controversy among parents and teachers. Before the SB 707 act was taken into effect [a bill allowing officials exempting people authorized to carry firearms in school ] the operating policy was that the Kern High District was a School Gun Free Zone. This new policy taken in consideration allows anyone with a CCW permit to bring a firearm to school at any time whether it be a teacher or staff member. This issue allowing firearms onto a school campus is considered necessary to keep students safe or in no need at all. Teachers at foothill high also had a say toward the new gun policy being viewed. Hiistory
I think that you should be able to have guns in public because you have to be able to protect yourself from threats, if not you are unable to protect yourself or anyone very effectively. Also have you realized that before gun control there were not nearly as many problems and worries about school shootings bomb threats and all that stupid stuff. I don't believe that taking away guns and weapons from public areas shouldn’t be allowed and isn't it said that in the constitution that you have the right to bear arms so why can't you have them in public I just don't understand what they hope to accomplish. Constantly I can hear people complaining about how the government
The threat of being attacked in the classroom is a new and major concern of current students. This overhanging threat of violence leaves the innocent at risk if action is not taken on a global legal level. Over the past 35 years, an epidemic of gun violence has emerged as a threat to public safety. The United States is currently at the front lines of this issue suffering the most firearm involved violence by a huge margin. The popularity and circulation of firearms are at an all time high in America. In this day in age, when action to limit firearm availability to the public appears a much needed step, the exact opposite is occurring. In the United States firearm ownership is “protected” through the Bill of Rights. But what exactly does the
