Guns

Talking about guns is a big topic and also sensitive to some. However, it is important because there have been millions of deaths due to guns in this country. This is a huge problem that many people don’t like talking about. Most people who are licensed to carry a firearm are against “controlling” who can carry one and where they can be obtained. I honestly think that guns should not be allowed. The only people who should have access to have them are police, army and any other government-related group that has always had one. There should be no way a U.S citizen can get their hands on a firearm.

There have been shooting all over the world that has killed a lot of people. Here in the United States, there is not one day that we don’t see in the news that there was a shooting especially in our local Austin news. It’s scary to see the news because all we hear about is guns and dead people. We as citizens shouldn’t be scared to go to school or work. Schools should be protected because that’s where most shootings have taken place. Every day that I have class I am scared to show up because who knows what would happen. That could be the last day for me and for many people. I think that the schools should have metal detectors and everyone who comes in should be registered and maybe even searched for any weapons. Our campus allows guns and it’s scary to even think about. I don’t think it should be allowed because we all pay for our education and the students should have had the option to vote on that issue.

Guns are dangerous and people should not have access to them unless like I mentioned they are in the army or police. We should protect everyone’s life no matter their skin color or where they are from. GUNS SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED!
