Should there be gun control? A lot of people seem to wonder whether or not guns are an issue in the United States. One of the reasons why people wonder is that there have been many shootings in schools, in communities, and in businesses. As a a firm believer that guns actually aren't the issue, I believe that the person that carries the gun is the issue. The reason why I believe this is that the gun is not the one in control, the person that carries it is. Even so, with gun control all over the United States, the percentage of gun related deaths should go down dramatically. "Gun control laws protect children and families: Moms Demand Action, a grassroots group founded in response to the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School, believes guns in America are creating a public health crisis that is attacking children, citing statistics that show nearly eight American children are shot and killed every day."(Ridder, 2014)
