Ok, guys, I am in my 2nd year of college and I've been waiting for an assignment like this to come along so that I could mop the floor with my libral teachers. Any help would be greatly appreciated, we need to pull together on this one and make a compelling arguement.
Here is the assignment:
"Research the statistics on violent crime in the United States compared to the rest of the world. Emphasize in your research deaths due to handguns. You may be extremely surprised with our cowboy 'shootem up' mentality here in the United States. Browse through the gun laws and 'buy back system' in Australia. In your opinion, why are we killing our own citizens at such an alarming rate? Describe your response in a multi-reason context (family, Hollywood, social issues, urban, divorce, gun availability, economics, situational variable, desensitization, gaming, mental aspects, etc). What is your opinion on the 2nd amendment? Need at least 350 words."
I really want to hear your guys' thoughts on this because I am afraid I will not be able to put my own thoughts into words well enough to make a strong arguement FOR handguns.
