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?

1.      What is Jones thesis? Restate in your own words. 2.      What arguments does Jones present as evidence in support of his thesis? 3.      What arguments against his position does Jones identify? How does he refute them? 4.      Paraphrase Jones’s concluding statement.  Jones thesis is to argue that violent media isn't bad for kids, it actually helps them. To restate his thesis, violent media helps kids escape from adolescence to decrease their natural aggression. Arguments to jones thesis would be a superhero role-model giving a kid strength and making him brave. Children need a way to vent their emotions and letting them read stories, imagine they are heroic crime-fighters, and act out battle scenes playfully with their friends helps them develop into kids that will communicate with others and not be shy. All kids have rage and letting it out in a safe way can help then with everyday life.

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.

I agree that kids shouldn't be exposed to technology at young ages. As proved in the article, technology messes up kids minds and causes them to be lazy and dependent on their devices. Kids should be exposed to technology when they are teenagers like 15 or 16. Early use of technology can also cause kids to get attitude with there parents and disobey them.
