Introduction    As we all know, guns have been around for a long time. Guns have evolved over time and so has illegal gun activity. Today more and more people are getting a hold of guns and doing dangerous things with them. Many of our presidents have created gun laws to make the U.S. safer. While the laws have decreased the crime rate, people are still committing gun crimes. So my question is why don’t gun laws control gun crimes? Gun crime rates have been increasing every year because gun laws don’t control gun crimes. In this paper, I will talk about gun crimes, crime rates, and laws created for guns and why they don’t control gun crimes.  In 2015, there were almost 400 mass shootings, killing 475 people and wounding 1,870. Also, in the same year, there were 64 school shootings. The topic I will be covering is: why gun laws don’t control gun crimes and how gun crimes are getting worse. Why aren’t gun laws useful?

According to other classmates presentations, I liked the topics everyone chose. I feel like everyone chose interesting topics to write about. I feel like they could improve their presentations by including more information and more facts pertaining to their topic and also some better sources. I feel like, in my presentation, I included a lot of information and facts about my topic. I think I could improve my presentation by putting information together better and making more sense in my research information.

My topic is gun control My research question is: why do people use guns for illegal reasons? My claim is: by creating stricter laws you stop illegal gun activity. I am interested in the topic of gun control because, personally, I like guns and I wanted to learn more about how guns work, what people use them for, and the many crimes that are committed with guns. I wanted to purchase a gun for protection purposes and because I like guns and I would like to have a collection. My audience is anyone that has or wants to purchase a firearm.
