I agree because without stronger, sensible gun laws, thousands of people will continue to die and be injured needlessly each year. It is far too easy for unstable or criminally-minded people to obtain dangerous weapons.

There should be stricter restrictions for convicted felons, the dangerously mentally ill, domestic violence offenders and youth to get the guns in the first place.

This can be achieved by passing strong and effective laws as well as by curbing laws and policies that allow guns on college campuses.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that more gun laws should be enforced. Multiple people take advantage of the use of guns and take innocent lives for no reason. "29,618,300 violent crimes committed between 2007 and 2011, 0.79% of victims
(235,700) protected themselves with a threat of use or use of a firearm." That number is not a lot compared to 29.6 million deaths. Although people choose to use gun as self-defence, that is still a unfavorable choice to make to hold a gun if it is illegal. The dangers of even owning one can lead to horrible situations. When mass shooting occurred, the percentage of death and injury were shown in high-capacity magazines. "When high-capacity magazines were used in mass shootings, the death rate rose 63% and the injury rate rose 156%.". We should enforce gun laws, not only for all our safety but for the civilians as well.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that guns should be illegal because there will not be as many crimes as if we had guns.I also agree that guns should be illegal because if kids find a gun in their house it will be most likely they will shoot somebody or themselves which had happened in past years. Guns should be illegal because kids don't want to learn about gun education, they just want to shoot it so, the smartest choice the government should do is to teach the kids self defense in school so if they are in danger they could just hold off the intruder waiting for your dad to take care of him.

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion, I think the US should enforce gun laws.i think this way because in areas where there are more guns, there are more homicides, "We found that across developed countries, where guns are more available, there are more homicides.”.  There are also many children dying because of accidentally shooting themselves, "A study in the New England Journal of Medicine found that firearms were the second leading cause of deaths for children". One more way to prove my thinking is, when mass shootings happen and high capacity magazines are involved, the death and injury percentages SKYROCKET, "When high-capacity magazines were used in mass shootings, the death rate rose 63% and the injury rate rose 156%.". To conclude my perspective, i think we should enforce gun laws for the sake of our civilians.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that we should not have stricter gun rules because we need guns for our protection. Here is some evidence of why I think we don't need stricter gun rules “Gun education is the best way to save young lives.” another text evidence to why us humans should be able to own guns "61% of men

and 56% of women surveyed by Pew Research said that stricter gun laws would “make it more difficult for people to protect their homes and families.” The last evidence that I found that supports my opinion is "Guns don't kill people; people kill people."

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that there should be more gun laws because many people die of guns.“ There were 572,537 total gun deaths between 1999 and 2016: 336,579 suicides 58.8% of total gun deaths”.

# data[].attributes.body
My response to Gun Control  is undecided. I believe that Gun Control could be useful but also can't be at certain times. My supporting evidence for Gun Control  is stated by Kyle Wintersteen, editor manager of Guns and Ammo stating

“children introduced to guns associate them with

freedom, security, and recreation—not violence." Another piece of supporting evidence is "Guns kept in the home are associated with an increase in the risk of homicide by a family member or intimate acquaintance," stating why we might need more gun control laws. My opposing evidence for Gun Control is “The problem with such

[gun control] laws is that they take away guns from law-abiding citizens, while would-be criminals ignore them.”

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that there should be more gun laws because more people are getting killed according to what I read, “2001 and 2016, 6,410 women were killed with a gun by an intimate partner in the United states.” another piece of evidence is, “The FBI found that in 2013 arguments (such as romantic triangles, brawls fueled by alcohol or drugs, and arguments over money) resulted in 1,962 gun deaths (59.9% of the total).” 

# data[].attributes.body
I think stricter gun laws are necessary because most guns are legally owned. According to the text, [a]lmost all guns used in criminal acts enter circulation via initial legal transaction.” The more stricter laws would also decrease the amount of mass shootings. The text reads, "213,175 homicides (37.2%)" This statistic shows how many deaths caused by gun violence. The next benefit of more stricter gun laws is it saves hospitals billions of dollars. In the text it says, "The more than 100,000 people shot in the United States each year generate emergency room and hospital charges of nearly $3 billion." Another advantage is are background checks to see if the person buying won't do any harm to other people. Currently, less than half of gun sales don't need you to have a background check. The text states, "As much as 40% of all gun sales are undocumented private party gun sales that do not require a background check."

# data[].attributes.body
I think there should be more laws about gun/weapons because a lot(not all of them) use guns the wrong way like, school shootings, and  murders. 67% are used to commit crimes and 36,000 Americans are killed by guns each year an average of 100 per day. 100,000 Americans are shot and injured each year.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree there should be stricter laws about guns because people say they need it for self defense, but the statistics show that people barely even use guns for self defense as quoted here "Of the 29,618,300 violent crimes committed between 2007 and 2011, 0.79% of victims (235,700) protected themselves with a threat of use or use of a firearm, the least-employed protective behavior." And it would reduce the number of deaths each year.

# data[].attributes.body
There should be more laws about gun control because you don't know what they will use it for bad or good.So they should give it to trustworthy people

# data[].attributes.body
i belive more gun control laws would be safer to people becuase in the article it say 75% of women are more likley to die if gun is around .Also Lot of women die becouse stalkers have guns on them.I think guns should only be allowed with police, army people that trained years to keep us safe.

I think that stricter laws should be put in place because "Of the 29,618,300 violent crimes committed between 2007 and 2011, 0.79% of victims
(235,700) protected themselves with a threat of use or use of a firearm." That's nothing compared to 29.6 million. I also think that more laws should be put in place because “[a]lmost all guns used in
criminal acts enter circulation via initial legal transaction.” Not to mention that ​​"[21] A study in the American Journal of Public Health estimated that hospitalizations for firearm-related injuries cost Medicaid and
Medicare $2.7 billion over nine years."

we need more gun laws because There were 572,537 total gun deaths between 1999 and 2016: 336,579 suicides (58.8% of total gun deaths) tha is way to many lives lost from guns. also the organisation A Mother Jones investigation found that high-capacity magazines were used in at least 50% of the 62 mass shootings between 1982 and 2012. there should be 0 hi capacity mags. I think that there should not even be a way to get a automatic or semi automatic guns

# data[].attributes.body
I agree more strict laws so less people get killed and so people are more safe.

# data[].attributes.body
i think we need guns because we need to protect ourselves

I agree because many people are going to schools and scaring kids so when they are older they are going to go back to that day and remember what happen. Also a lot of people are killing themselves.  There were 572,537 total gun deaths between 1999 and 2016: 336,579 suicides (58.8%
of total gun deaths); 213,175 homicides (37.2%); and 11,428 unintentional deaths
(2.0%). ​[162] Guns were the leading cause of death by homicide (67.7% of all homicides)
and by suicide (51.8% of all suicides).. So i think that we should get more rules and stricter gun laws.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that we need more gun laws because 59.9& of deaths are caused by guns from arguments, brawls, and disagreements. The American Journal of Public Health  states that the weapons used in arguments are the ones closest in hands like guns. In Pro 12, it states that there have been 62 mass shootings between 1982 and 2012 none of them were stopped by citizens. It also says that no matter how responsible the average gun owner is they are not trained and do not know how to act in a life threatening situation so they would probably make the situation worse. (because of the increasing number of guns.)

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that there should be more gun laws "Stricter gun laws should be put in place in order to help stop gun violence and school shootings.". If they don't add gun laws it's possible that things can get worse. In the text it also says how 75% of the women is more likely to get shot.  In “2001 and 2016, 6,410 women were killed with a gun by an intimate partner in the United states.”

I believe that we should have more gun laws so that we can make it a better and safer place. In the text it says, "There were 572,537 total gun deaths between 1999 and 2016: 336,579 suicides (58.8% of total gun deaths); 213,175 homicides (37.2%); and 11,428 unintentional deaths (2.0%)." Which obviously shows how much damage guns do to the world, and if there were more strict gun laws, there would be a lot less deaths than there is in the world right now.

# data[].attributes.body
i agree because with stricter gun laws we would be able to stop many murders

# data[].attributes.body
I think gun laws have to exist more because many people can make a copy of a permission to hold a gun.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that we should have gun laws because people take advantage of the firearm and kill innocent people and sometimes get away with it. In the article it says " 22%  of Americans own a gun". 35% of men have a firearm and 12% of women have firearms. In the text it states that "393,347,000 guns which is the highest total of firearms that people had in each capital in the world". This is why I think there should be more gun laws

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like there should be stricter gun control laws to keep "sensitive places" safe like the article said alo deeper background checks would most likely lower the amount of criminals to get guns . These criminals are murdering people everyday in the article it says at least 5 women are murdered every day in the USA. There is alo a section that talks about how the person behind the gun is the problem not the gun but deeper background checks and more laws would decrease the amount of murders.

# data[].attributes.body
i agree that stricter gun laws could help ''There were 572,537 total gun deaths between 1999 and 2016: 336,579 suicides (58.8% of gun deaths); 213,175 homicides (37.2%); and 11,428 unintentional deaths (2.0%). [162] Guns were the leading cause of death by homicide (67.7% of all homicides) and by suicide (51.8% of all suicides)'' i also think mental health cheeks would provant anyone from harming themselves.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that stricter gun laws SHOULD be put in place because, "of 62 mass shootings in the United States between 1982 and 2012, 49 of the shooters used legally obtained guns". Another reason I think this is because " despite Chicago's ban on gun shops, shooting ranges, assault weapons, and high capacity magazines, in 2014 chicago had 2,089 shooting victims including at least 390 victims. I also think this because, "John R.Lott, Jr.PhD, gun rights activist stated, the problem with such (gun control) laws is that they take away guns from law-abiding citizens, while would-be criminals ignore them". This is why I think stricter laws should be put in so that school shooting can stop. Something I think is that the more guns that people are getting and selling the more people are going to use them for worse and worse things.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that there should be more gun laws. I chose to believe this because as stated in the text, "Five women are murdered with guns every day in the United States. [10] A woman’s risk of being murdered increases 500% if a gun is present during a domestic dispute." , so by having more gun laws, it will protect more women. It was also stated in the text that , "76% of women murdered and 85% of women who survived a murder attempt by an intimate partner were stalked in the year before the murder or murder attempt. " , so by having more gun laws it can keep women safe from stalkers, and potential stalkers. Also, by having more gun laws, it could lower suicide rates. As stated in the text, "In 2007 Switzerland ranked number 3 in international gun ownership rates with 45.7 guns per 100 people (about 3,400,000 guns total). [45] In 2009 Switzerland had 24 gun homicides (0.31 deaths per 100,000 people) and 253 gun suicides (3.29 deaths per 100,000 people). [44] Finland ranked fourth in international gun ownership rates with 45.3 guns per 100 people (about 2,400,000 guns total). [45] In 2007 Finland had 23 (0.43 deaths per 100,000 people) gun homicides and 172 gun suicides (4.19 deaths per 100,000 people). " , this shows that countrys with much stricter gun laws have lower suicide and homocide rates.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that more gun laws should be in place. Like for example, “Ammunition purchases could reduce deaths by a projected 80.7%". And gun identification would reduce gun deaths dramatically. "gun identification gun identification requirements could reduce deaths by a projected 82.5%.”

I agree with the statement because it would stop shootings and killing. It would prevent robberies and school shootings and families will be safe. and also can have less numbers. last year about 40,000 people died from guns. Also a guy asked 5,000 people and only 1.3 percent said yes.Finally another reason is that a guy shot a school and this happened because the student had access to guns so easily.

I think that there should be more gun laws because it said in the text, that between 2007 and 2011 only 0.79% of  victims used their guns as defence. In another part of the text, it said that almost all the guns used in violent crimes were taken by legal transaction. More than 100,000 US citizens are shot, and that generates to a hospital bill of 3 billion dollars.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with the prompt because 22% of Americans have one or more guns. That is very bad because I feel like having more than one gun gives you more power. I also agree with the prompt because in the United States there are 393,347,000 people with guns. That is not good at all because with so many guns people feel scared and afraid, making the people with guns feel more powerful. Finally I agree with the prompt because there were 572,537 total gun deaths between 1999 and 2016. That is a lot which means that people are not using guns responsibly, which is why there needs to be stricter laws.

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree because it stated that gun ownership was the problem because there was less gun murders when guns became legal because people protected themselves more. As the text states ”assault weapons bans did not significantly affect murder rates at the state level” and “states with restrictions on the carrying of concealed weapons had higher gun-related murders.” then this “‘While gun ownership doubled in the twentieth century, the murder rate decreased.” This is why I disagree.

# data[].attributes.body
I think there should be more laws in place to help stop gun violence because sometimes people use guns in the wrong way/take advantage of them. I also disagree and I think people should educate others and check up on others' mental health. Currently I am undecided. In the text, it says,"Of the 29,618,300 violent crimes committed between 2007 and 2011, 0.79% of victims (235,700) protected themselves with a threat of use or use of a firearm." Also, "89% of adults with a gun in the home approve of laws to prevent the purchase of guns by the mentally ill."

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that guns should have more stricter laws or people shouldn't own guns. Only the Officers and the Military because obviously the laws we have right now about gun control isn't really working out since there is STILL gun violence. "50% of the 62 mass shootings between 1982 and 2012. The death rate rose 63% and the injury rate rose 156%. Of the 29,618,300 violent crimes committed between 2007 and 2011, 0.79% of victims (235,700) protected themselves with a threat of use or use of a firearm, the least-employed protective behavior."

# data[].attributes.body
i agree that gun  rules should be stircter because  people who sell guns might be selling them to crimals without knowing it  .And yes i understand that some people need it for self defense

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that stricter guns laws should be put in place because guns were the leading cause of death for homicide in between the years 1999 and 2016, and likely still are or close to being. In between these years, there were a total of 572,537 gun deaths. Suicides account for 58.8% of those deaths and 37.2% for homicides. These numbers could largely decrease with stricter laws, possibly testing people for their mental health to see if they have any intents of killing themselves or someone else before letting them possess a gun. Besides, in between the years 2007 and 2011 only 0.79% of 29,618,300 victims protected themselves with a gun in times of a violent crime. This means that not very many people use guns in times self defense is needed, but if gun laws were stricter, less people would harm each other which means less people needing to defend themself.

I agree that more stricter gun laws should be placed because "There were 572,537 total gun deaths between 1999 and 2016: 336,579 suicides (58.8% of total gun deaths); 213,175 homicides (37.2%); and 11,428 unintentional deaths (2.0%) but even if you bought a gun for protection people are still using them to start a school shooting or for mass murderer and that is really bad so if there were to be more gun laws we could reduce that and we would be safer in our world.

# data[].attributes.body
I think more people get hurt with a gun than without "Five women are murdered with guns every day in the United States. [A woman’s risk of being murdered increases 500% if a gun is present during a domestic dispute" "For example, the 2011 mass shooting"

# data[].attributes.body
I think that there should be more laws put in place in the process of buying a gun, but i do not think that we should take away guns from people that are law abiding citizens, or people that shoot recreationally or hunt. Some states have put laws in place to lower gun violence crimes, but statistics show that in 2019 10 out of 24 mass shooting contained guns that were obtained illegally. So, if there were to be more laws put in place, criminals would just find alternate ways to get their hands on illegal and dangerous weapons

I agree, "Stricter gun laws should be put in place in order to help stop gun violence and school shootings." because SOME people don't listen or don't even care about laws in the USA. That's why we have HARD LOCKDOWNS in our schools to be safe from the intruders. TEXT EVIDENCE: There were 572,537 total gun deaths between 1999 and 2016: 336,579 suicides (58.8% of total gun deaths); 213,175 homicides (37.2%); and 11,428 unintentional deaths (2.0%). [162) Guns were the leading cause of death by homicide (67.7% of all homicides) and by suicide (51.8% of all suicides). I thought this sounded "hazardous" because in 1999-2016 there has been 572,537 gun shots! So my opinion is I think we need more Stricter gun laws.

I agree that more gun laws should be enforced because some people take advantages of the use of guns and kill innocent lives for no reason whatsoever. Also there are a lot of racism acts involving guns that is one big thing that is going on right now. For example.

I think that there should be more specific laws about gun violence, because the text says "There were 572,537 total gun deaths between 1999 and 2016" that is because people decide to not follow the laws. The text said there were "213,175 homicides" there is also " A 2003 study found that 86% of women killed by firearms were in the United States and women are 11.4 times more likely to be the victims of gun homicides" so many women are getting killed, which means there needs to be more laws to help keep each state safe without a lot of gun violence.

I am undecided, because if we take away gun laws we have no more school shooting, but if we don't take away guns we could have something to protect ourselves with, so thats why I am undecided.

I think that we need more stricter gun laws because the more gun laws there are the more safety is provided for people and prevent gun violence

i agree because for the criminals that can't find a distributor and that will stop them for a while.

I think that more gun control should be enforced because even though a lot of guns caused by gun violence is caused by people buying guns illegally but suicides count for 61% of gun deaths in the US, and people get those guns from their parents, and family members who got the guns legally.

I agree that there should be more stricter laws because there would be less shooting other people themself and animals like it says here the total amount of gun death is 572,537.For suicides is 336,579, and if they would be more stricter laws then it would decrease.

I agree there should be more gun control because it would make people safer. By enforcing gun laws the amount of deaths would decrease by a lot.

I agree that gun laws would help because “There were 572,537 total gun deaths between 1999 and 2016: 336,579 suicides (58.8% of total gun deaths).” Even though owning a gun can protect you too many people buy one to start a mass shooting or do something else that is terrible. More evidence is, "The more than 100,000 people shot in the United States each year generate emergency room and hospital charges of nearly $3 billion," this shows that with the amount of people being shot it causes financial trouble for the victims and leave them with a terrifying experience. All of this shows that many of the guns bought lead to many injuries and deaths. The last part of the evidence is, "Between 1999 and 2013 there were 270,237 firearm suicides in the United States, accounting for about 52% of all suicides during those years."

I think guns can be useful in some cases but I think they cause more harm than good. In the text it says "“Guns were leading cause by homicide (67.7% of all homicides) and by suicide (51.8% of all suicides)."

I disagree that gun laws are going to solve anything because “Of 62 mass shootings in the United States between 1982 and 2012, 49 of the shooters used legally obtained guns. Also they take away guns from law abiding citizens just trying to defend themselves especially in high crime areas where there is so much gun violence. So I don’t think gun laws will solve anything but more background and mental health checks will do something.

Believe that people should be allowed to use guns. One thing that I think could be a negative thing though  is that a lot of people kill people. I think everyone should be able to protect themselves form danger and there homes.

# data[].attributes.body
Im undecided at this point
because i so think that there should be more laws but then if there is more laws less people would have a gun which is good but it is also bad because we need something to defend our self mostly because i feel that the police are not really having mercy for other mostly black people so i'm undecided  and we do need more laws because in the text it says that about 4000 people are in the hospital because of them getting shot so i also think we need more gun right/laws
im really undecided

I agree that there should be stricter laws for gun violence because more people are dying or are hurt by a gun. There were 572,537 total gun deaths between 1999 and 2016.  Guns were the leading cause of death by homicide (67.7% of all homicides) Showing gun violence is rising.

I believe that people should be able to own guns because 1. it can increase their protection and 2. if we had stricter gun laws people would still find a way to have weapons. My text evidence is "61% of men and 56% of women surveyed by Pew Research said that stricter gun laws would “make it more difficult for people to protect their homes and families.” Another evidence to why we shouldn't make stricter gun laws is "Guns don’t kill people; people kill people." The last evidence is “Gun education is the best way to save young lives.”

I believe that only authorities should own a gun because people could use it in a way to harm people. I say that there should be stricter laws because there was a point where anybody could get a gun and it's not right. "Background checks for ammunition purchases could reduce deaths by a projected 80.7%; " that is an example of how more gun control laws will be usefull. A women is more likely to get shot with a gun that was bought. If the United Sates would put more laws for guns that would put less of a probability for a women to get shot. Another example why they should put more laws is because, A shooter was shooting people with a gun he bought. That shows how people use guns they buy and not for safety

I agree that there should be more stricter laws for gun violence and school shootings because I think people would be less interested in guns.

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree because there are so many things that are going on that we don't know about. Sometimes you will need to use a gun for self defense, it really does depend on the situation.

I believe that there should be stricter laws for guns because without them people could carry guns freely and could do anything with them which could cause problems like mass shootings. In the text, "More gun control laws would reduce gun deaths" it says, " “legal purchase of a handgun appears to be associated with a long-lasting increased risk of violent death” [6] According to a Mar. 10, 2016 Lancet study. It also says, "Gun licensing laws were associated with a 14% decrease in firearm homicides, while increases in firearm homicides were seen in places with right-to-carry and stand-your ground-laws". In the text is also says, " background checks for ammunition purchases could reduce deaths by a projected 80.7%; ". This explains how if there were more laws for people with guns then there would be less crimes involving guns.

i think that we should put a bit more gun control because people are probibly still going to get guns illelally. it should cut down some deaths. 58% of suicides,67.7% of homicides were by guns ,investigation found that high-capacity magazines were used in at least 50% of the 62 mass shootings between 1982 and 2012. [7] When high-capacity magazines were used in mass shootings, the death rate rose 63% and the injury rate rose 156%. A study in the New England Journal of Medicine found that firearms were the second leading cause of deaths for children, responsible for 15% of child deaths compared to 20% in motor vehicle crashes.

I do agree with more stricked
