Initially, when I first saw the argument in the Learning
Modules, I went for it because it was one of those controversial topics that I
actually enjoyed. I have done many argumentative essays before but I have
always enjoyed certain topics more than others that I have had to do.
The first article I chose was “Gun Control has a clear
Record of Failure” by Tom Gresham. In his article, he states that certain gun
bans that they have tried have failed
because of how they handle the situation and that instead of banning guns, we
should try and learn the safety of guns, therefore decreasing the chances of
gun violation. I agree with this article because if we learn the safety and
rights of guns, then there won’t be any more accidents and the violence will go
down. But we don’t have to ban the right of bearing arms all together.
In my other article, “We Need Gun Control to Stop More Than
Criminals,” by Susann Milligan, it states that all of these killings are
because people are allowed to have guns and are able to use them whenever they
want to. She explains her reasoning with examples and what had happened with
them. She explains that having certain
bans, or having background checks, would be able to prevent many murders. I
also agree with this one because certain people shouldn’t have guns, and having
background checks and other may help with the violence that is spreading with
firearms.
Gun control has always spike my curiosity and with all the
bans they have been trying to place it has always had me questioning the ideas
of gun control. Both of these articles and others I have read have been very
valid in my quest for a good argumentative essay that I hope I can bring to the
plate.
