Gun Violence in the U.S. Storyboard Project by Joel Chiappetta https://padlet.com/chi511249/gq8ax2p6gylxbqur en-us 2022-03-14 18:46:40 UTC 2022-04-05 19:09:08 UTC hello@padlet.com Gun Violence in the U.S. chi511249 https://padlet.com/chi511249/gq8ax2p6gylxbqur/wish/2094499602 The topic that I chose for my storyboard is gun violence in the U.S. This topic is important to me and society because so many innocent people pass away for no reason because of illegal gun use, and many families are devastated and have no hope this is gonna stop. ]]> 2022-03-14 18:53:53 UTC https://padlet.com/chi511249/gq8ax2p6gylxbqur/wish/2094499602 What are some effective ways the government can place more restrictions on owning guns? chi511249 https://padlet.com/chi511249/gq8ax2p6gylxbqur/wish/2094511681 The two different opposing viewpoints are that one can believe the U.S. The government should ban guns so gun violence can stop for good. Another viewpoint from a different person could disagree and think that all guns should be allowed, and the government should not take our guns. My view on it is that I think only some people that are trusted and verified should be able to own guns for self defense. ]]> 2022-03-14 19:02:09 UTC https://padlet.com/chi511249/gq8ax2p6gylxbqur/wish/2094511681 The Legislative Policy that Impacts Gun Violence chi511249 https://padlet.com/chi511249/gq8ax2p6gylxbqur/wish/2094535049 The policy in the Legislative branch is the 2nd amendment which is the right to bear arms (to own a gun legally) This impacts the issue not in the best way because this means anyone can own a gun legally, which can cause more gun violence. ]]> 2022-03-14 19:19:44 UTC https://padlet.com/chi511249/gq8ax2p6gylxbqur/wish/2094535049 Position A on Gun Violence chi511249 https://padlet.com/chi511249/gq8ax2p6gylxbqur/wish/2094549020 One side of the argument in the media is to keep the gun law and the 2nd amendment, which could cause more gun violence and death.

This will keep more areas safer because guns won't be distributed out as much if there's a big restriction on owning guns, which this relates to my topic because its about adding more steps to get a gun, and stop making as many.

Her stance on the topic is that she believes that no citizen should be allowed to own a gun. Harris said if elected president, she will give Congress 100 days to pass gun laws. Otherwise, she will issue an Executive order. The next candidate that is pro gun is Cory Booker, which he is the New Jersey Senator. His stance on this problem is “If you need a license to drive a car, you should need a license to own a gun.” Which means it should be taken more seriously and more difficult to own. The last politician that supports gun control is Elizabeth Warren, she is a Senator for Massachusetts. Her viewpoint of guns is that they should make owning a gun more serious and should put more effort into it so the U.S. could stay safe. ]]> 2022-03-14 19:53:17 UTC https://padlet.com/chi511249/gq8ax2p6gylxbqur/wish/2094581850 Resources chi511249 https://padlet.com/chi511249/gq8ax2p6gylxbqur/wish/2094589095 You can learn more about the issue from all of these links I used to gather this information:

There are also anti-gun right jokes that are all on social media. Some sites that include gun violence humor are Reddit, Twitter, Pinterest, and other social media websites. The way people make humourous jokes or posts is posting or leaking very disturbing videos of people dying because of gun accidents, and intentional gun deaths. If you joke about gun violence, or make some type of threat you can get arrested. You can get arrested because if you are involved in a post with guns, threats, or jokes it could lead to a criminal charge to a criminal investigation.
