Recent push for stricter gun control policies and arguments
Abstract
The research paper is on gun control and the push for gun control. To respond to the topic the paper first lays down in the first paragraph basic concepts of the gun control ideals and the pro-gun movement. The introduction explores the basic tenets and motivations of the pro-gun and gun control activists in America. The paper uses the motivation and opposition of both sides to create a paper on the gun control. The goal of the research is also identified in the first paragraph, as the analysis of the gun control issue analyzing both side point of views. The goal is to create an understanding of the long-standing complexity involving the issue, and the lack of consensus over the decades. The paper is then structured into different paragraphs dealing with the history of gun control especially the legal history with the American Bar Association and the House of Delegate. It then explores how the gun control movement has used major traumatic events in American to push for gun control and the reasons identified for this measure. This is followed by the reasons given by pro-gun individuals and interest groups like the National Rifle Association. lastly, the paper explores the opposing views from the gun control advocates, and an example of Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. The working thesis for the paper is that the lack of serious gun control measures is associated with long-standing complexity involving the issue, and the lack of consensus over the decades.
