Imagine, you were just out on your daily late-night job. And moments later a person jumps out in front of you moments later. Holding a loaded gun and says Give me your money. Well, you have just fallen victim to a mugging. A mugging that you have not had the time to react to. All you hear a moment later is a bang! The next minute youre going up to heaven. Gun-related deaths are not uncommon occurrences. Gun control is a set of laws that regulate and prohibit the use, manufacturing, transfer, possession, and modification of firearms. According to UC Davis, there were 39,707 deaths from firearms in the U.S. in 2019. Sixty percent of deaths from firearms in the U.S. are suicides. In 2019, 23,941 people in the U.S. died by firearm suicide.1 Firearms are the means in approximately half of suicides nationwide. These numbers are ridiculously high! Some of you may have possession of a firearm or a family member does. This could mean that they or even yourself are against gun control. It is my hope to educate you on why stricter gun control laws are a positive. During my speech, Ill talk about how the US would look without gun control laws, with gun control laws, and finally the benefits of having it. I will provide evidence that has been proven to show the benefits of gun control. After listening to my speech, I hope that youll be ready for gun control. Or at least open-minded to a certain level of gun control.
There are different types of gun laws that are present in the world. Many laws have different age requirements to carry and purchase a weapon. In this speech however, I will only discuss the USs gun control laws. According to Lydia from The Hill Under federal law, the minimum age to buy a handgun from a licensed dealer is 21. But the age limit drops to 18 if the gun is being purchased from a private, unlicensed seller, which could be a neighbor or someone online, or at a gun show. Imagine now that this law is nonexistent. There would be tons of chaos in our country. All ages would be able to get their hands on firearms and it would be a national crisis. People would be killing each other, accidents would occur over the use of these dangerous tools, and many more horrific outcomes. Everyone remembers the worst mass shooting on US soil. October 1st, of 2017. Around 10 p.m. Sunday (1 a.m. ET), gunman Stephen Paddock opened fire from the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Resort on a crowd watching Aldean. Several weapons were located in the 64-year-old Paddock’s hotel room. Police reported at least 58 people were killed and more than 500 people were injured in the shooting (Kalhan NBC). If gun control laws werent present in the US these types of mass shootings would occur way more frequently. Not only would mass shootings become more present. Laws such as safe storage requirements, a law that is meant to protect children and minors from accessing weapons would be gone. Many more gun control laws would be too. The death toll in the US would dramatically spike because there wouldnt be any laws prohibiting the use of them.
Now, that I have told you what the US would like without any of our gun laws. I will now explain what it would look like if we were to increase our country’s gun control laws. Im for gun control. Which means I want stricter gun laws. A good place to start increasing gun control laws is prohibiting minors from possessing a firearm until the legal age of 21. A robust body of academic literature shows that the human brain continues to develop well past the age of 21, particularly in areas that may alter a persons likelihood of involvement in violence against themselves or others. The parts of the brain responsible for impulse control, judgement, and long-range planning are among the last areas of the brain to fully mature, and in fact, may continue to develop until at least age 26. The developing brains of adolescents and young adults may put them at higher risk of making risky decisions. Hormonal changes can have significant effects on self-control, decision making, emotions, risk-taking behaviors, and aggressive impulses (Giffords). Enforcing gun laws that would prevent people from purchasing/possessing firearms. Would lower our nation’s deaths due to firearms. For example, in 2010 12,996 people were murdered in the US. 8,775 of those deaths were due to firearms. These shocking statistics prove that violence from the misuse and abuse of gun privileges is a leading cause of death in this country. Not only will it help reduce rates of murder. Gun control and stricter gun laws according to Giffords when mental health information is submitted to NICS, it can be effective at preventing firearm transfers by licensed dealers to ineligible people. Stricter gun laws will also help stop minors from getting their hands on guns according to a source, a gun in the home can be very dangerous, especially for children. Every year, nearly 1,300 children die from guns and many more are seriously injured (Nation Wide Childrens). Mass shootings and children’s deaths could have been prevented if procedures hadnt been taken so lightly.
Now that I have shown what our country would be like without gun control and with it. I discuss the overall benefits of having gun control. There would be fewer mass shootings, fewer murders involving firearms, fewer accidental deaths involving unconcealed firearms, fewer people who are mentally ill/unstable obtaining firearms, and many more positive reasons to have gun control laws.
Now that I have educated you on gun control laws in this country and the serious issues of misuse/abuse of firearms. I want you to go out and make a change. If you own or know someone who owns a firearm make sure you have all the proper legal documentation, make sure you safely store your firearm, and make sure you conceal your firearm when out in public. Take these precautions, please! These are to help prevent anyone from getting injured or worse, killed. Educate your family members on how to handle a weapon safely. Go on protests to help encourage the government to implement more strict gun control laws. Make your voice heard. A change will not happen if you do nothing about it. Anything you can do to help get the word out about safer gun laws will help tremendously. I hope that my speech showed you the overarching benefits of having gun laws in place in this country. Thank you for your time. Have a great day everyone and remember change doesnt happen overnight.
