Gun control

Gun control
In my opinion gun control should be enforced more, mostly in the United States because that’s where you and I live, not only here but also all around the world. Every day or every month or every year for the majority of our life there will be an incident involving guns. Whether is an accident or a terrorist attack or a school shooting there will and always be something involving guns. For this specific cause is that I’m taking the time to inform you of guns not only for your benefit but mostly for the benefit of people all around you whether it’s a family member or a friend or just someone you may know. A few months ago to be exactly on December of 2012 there was the most recent shooting at a school, not only was it the most recent but also the one that will always be kept in memory in the hearts of families that suffered losses. Also throughout time we have been seeing shooting after shooting, research has shown that most of these people are not normal, by this I mean that they all had problems either as an adult or as a child. Not only is this wrong but United States of America second amendment states that people have the right to keep and bear arms. I will explore onto this topics at a broader way to explain to you why gun control should be more control.

December a month were you seem to think that is one of the best, a month were you get to spend time with your family and be grateful of all the good things there are, the most favorite month of the year for most. Unfortunately December of 2012 went a whole 360 degrees different of what any human being living in Connecticut would have imagined. “One of the deadliest school shooting in American history.” (cbsnews) simply because of no strict gun control laws. Thinking of this makes me angry, and then it hits me of how unfair things happen, because of sick people our world is the way it is today not only do we see it in America but also throughout most of the world. Innocent children 20 in total had to pay the price. Now, do we think weather this will be a good enough reason that we demand to have a needing of stricter gun control measure?
School shooting – other shooting happen not because the person is in a good mentally state, but obviously because they have problems maybe anger issues maybe mental problems or just maybe political and religious beliefs. “Lunatics, bullied school kids, disgruntled workers, and others can inflict mass casualties with guns that otherwise wouldn't be possible.” (balencepolitics) by this its referring that most of the time tragedies like this are cause by mentally ill people with other background problems. Also the fact that most of the time sellers don’t have a clue of who their selling the gun to and what are their purposes. I think this has a big impact on some of the shooting that have happen before.
The second amendment of the United States of America states that “a person has the right to keep and bear arms” (Wikipedia). President Obama said “the major provisions of his package of gun proposals, including background checks on all gun sales, a ban on semi-automatic weapons that mimic military weapons, and limiting ammunition magazines to 10 rounds.” (cnn) this is what should have been thought off a long time ago because now if we have background checks it would reduce the amount

of guns that are being sell to people that may have problems or a criminal record. President Obama also proposed in his speech state of the union that there should be a banned on semi-automatic weapons. I feel like everyone will feel safer if this law comes out because either way there shouldn’t be any military guns on the street.
On the other hand many people believe gun control should stay the same. I respect the fact that yes maybe they hunt or they have one at home to make their family feel safe and that is totally fine. So yes I can relate to the pros of not having as much gun control as we should already have. However, it is often thought by people that they have the right to buy semi-automatic weapons but then imagine, why would anyone have the need to buy such a gun made mostly for extreme circumstances like war?
Before one of the biggest school shooting in America I would think, how could having a more enforce gun control benefit me in any way? The answer hit me after hearing all about those innocent children that lost their life, I started to think that maybe it won’t benefit me now but surely will it be a benefit to other people and perhaps a whole community all throughout the United States. I think, I think about how great nations would be if they had a more strict control and then I smile and wait for something significant to happen, something that will change the way Americans think.
