Your assignment is to write a 5 page double spaced paper on gun control and violence. Do gun control laws work? What has happened to violent crimes in European nations where guns are illegal? Could the same happen here in the United States, or are we an entirely different culture? Why are violent crimes more present in states or cities with tough gun control laws? Why does it not make sense? Would arming citizens help reduce crime instead of increasing it as members of conservative groups such as the NRA claim?
Make sure to examine both sides of the argument and choose a position.
