Blog Stage Six: Comment on a colleague's work #1

I have been always thinking that the United States should strengthen the law of gun control. Gun violence is getting worse so that a lot of people are suffering in these days. According to one of my classmates Pearlamedrano, she claimed that the government should make laws more strict to be able to own guns in the United States. Along with this, I totally agree with her because of the population of the people who were killed by the gun is increasing day by day. Some people may insist that they are not using their gun as a weapon but for hunting and protection. However, the impacts of the gun violence are negatively pervasive and affect entire families and communities. For instance, the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting that occurred in Florida led 17 people dead and 19 people injured. This shows gun violence is not only occurring in dangerous places but schools as well. It is taking children’s lives where the place was not supposed to happen. Since gun violence is mentally and physically threatening people, it is important to regulate the gun violence to limit to access for the safety of all.
