It Should Be Law!
It Should Be Law!
Handguns and teens do not go together. Why then is the number of young people being killed by handguns increasing each year? It is against the law for anyone under the age of twenty-one to handle a gun, but it seems that this law isn’t being followed by the world today. Many people have guns in their homes, for “protection” they say, but one cannot honestly say that the weapon killing young people is a good means of protection. As a nation, a society, the people of today should stand up for what’s right. Don’t give teens the opportunity to handle a gun. Handguns should be illegal to the young people under any circumstances.
There have been numerous occasions on the news when a young child /teenager has been killed by a gun in his/her own house. This scene is very sad. People today aren’t even safe in their homes anymore. This situation, though it has happened many times, can be prevented. If certain people didn’t have the right to own handguns things of this sort wouldn’t happen. It’s like a child with a piece of candy. If the child doesn’t see the candy, he won’t want it, but the moment he lays his eyes on it, it has to be his. Don’t give young people the chance to own a handgun and they won’t see the need to have one.
Guns are a threat to the world today. No one goes into a convenience store and says, “Give me all the money or else,” without some type of weapon, and 90% of the time that weapon is a gun. Think of how much better this world would be without guns. Teens would not be getting into the kind of trouble they are getting into today. Without the driving force of a handgun, young people would never think of robbing a bank, breaking into a house, or worse, killing someone. The violence of today’s teens would drastically decrease if guns were not in the picture.
Young people have been bringing in guns and shooting their own classmates as a means of releasing anger. The truth is that this is happening in schools all around the world.
