Gun Control in the 90's

GUN CONTROL IN THE 90'S

Limits on fire arms these days are not near as good as they could be!

The government should make more laws so that children under the age of 21

can't even get hold of a gun. These days it's really easy for just anyone to get a

gun no matter how old they are. There is always a way through friends,

family, or people on the street. Thats really sad and dangerous.

I think that the government could prevent things like Columbine and

the recent Jewish Church shooting. It might take a lot longer to get the guns

to the people who can responsibly take care of them, but I'd be willing to wait

if I were buying a gun. I would hope the rest of America would be willing to

make that small sacrifice

to help ensure safety in our schools. I know for the

first couple of months after the Columbine shooting I was terrified to go to

school. I still have those thoughts in the back of my mind. A lot of students do.

Here's what I think could help: 1) If the government would do

background checks on all people who want to purchase guns BEFORE they

give the gun to that person. 2) If they would have areas ( such as special

buildings ) to keep the guns in, to prevent people taking them home and

childeren getting a hold of them or to prevent disasters. 3) If they would make

better laws to protect the well being of people no matter where they are. 4) If

they would have more security in school and in the public.

In the future, I would want my children to have more protection and

better laws than I had while I was young. I don't want my children to go to

school scared that they are going to get shot, hurt, or killed at school. I would

hope that
