    Gun Control In my opinion‚ guns shouldn’t be banned‚ just regulated. An automatic machinegun for example‚ there is no reason why any civilian should need one. They just use them for recreational purposes but once they get in the wrong hands‚ these can be some of the most deadly weapons there are. Any scenario of that happening has had a terrible outcome and caused tragic events in our history. It shouldn’t be a hobby to own these kinds of very deadly weapons. They should be outlawed and taken away

    Gun Control How many people do not fear being attacked by someone with a gun? The truth is that most people do share a fear of guns.

Almost 30‚000 people die each year in a gun related incident (Soyer 1). People are not careful enough in deciding where they place their weapon or how they use it. Because of its poor gun control system‚ America is

    In 2016 alone there were over 15‚000 gun related deaths in the United States.
