Today in our society we have a massive problem with gun violence. Many people are abusing their right to own guns by doing was is called a shooting. A shooting is a kill spree of mostlky public areas. This happens because of people wioth a mental background not being check for illnesses and abeing allowed to purchase firearms. This is not always the case, for there are problems with bullies in our society. Bullies are a big party of this society in its day of age. Bullying has all forms. When this happens people think that the correct way to fix the problem of gun violence is to ban all firearms from being used by civilians. There aree many reasons why gun violence is bad in this day but one major problem is the violence in public city schools. Public schools are one of the biggest forms of problems with children in this day. The government does not realize that the violence shown on television is one of the main causes for children to be brain washed and is is one of the reasons for violence in the schools. One theory in sociology that deals with this problem is structural functionalism theory.structural functionalism is a theory that is believed that society is like parts in a machine that work together to maintain progress and stability. This being said the society is becoming more and more unstable by new threaths and constant forms of panic. People in society believe that the government system is corrupt and we are slowly being brought down lower and lower each day in society. Structural functionalism plays a big part in everyday life. Peolle do ot realize this but in someway your are helping another person. From donating to giving someone and idea to further their interests sociologist see this as framework. We build off one another in our lives. With gun violence a person comes is given an idea based upon something they have learned, seen, been told, and gives that idea
