semi-automatic, and fire lots of bullets in a short period. They are not needed in ordinary lives, they are only needed by the army and the police, as part of their daily job. Hence, accidental shootings is a major problem in the US; as well as this, you are 34 times more likely to shoot a family member or friend than an intruder. In addition, 100 children and teenagers lives are wasted every year due to the big issue of accidental shootings. However, this can be prevented by gun control. Furthermore, less guns = less crime. Additionally, you are 30 times more likely to be a victim of gun crime in the US than the UK. If there were fewer guns in the United States; there would be a lot less risks and accidental shootings. As well as this, the population is going down due to the issue of gun crime. Moreover, on average, 268 people are shot per day in the US. With gun control, this wouldn't happen as much or not at all. In conclusion, gun control has been extremely popular , your vote might help to change the United States from being an unsafe, deadly place to a country that doesn't have guns just in case. Vote yes for gun control. Yours Faithfully Ella To whom it may concern, 1000's of innocent people are being killed by legal in the us. Hence the population is going down even more each year. This letter will explain why guns should be band in America. Firstly guns are designed to kill. Ar15 guns are semi - automatic and extremely dangerous. They shoot nearly 100 bullets in a minute and these guns were designed for police and the army not for manslaughter. They aren't necessary guns to be carrying around in public or hiding peoples homes its obserd. In addition to this accidental shooting kills so many people per year. You are 30 times more likely to shoot a family member or a friend than a intruder. Also 100 children are killed each year this can be prevented. Furthermore less guns less crime because you are 34 more times likely to be a gun crime victim in the us than the UK. Nine thousand and forty six people are killed per year. If there are less weapons there is less risk. In conclusion that is why I think that guns should be banned because of all these horrible deaths. Eventually the human race will go extinct. 100 children are losing their lives due to these retched weapons and it is not acceptable. This debate must stop and guns must be banned.
