Week 8 Article 1

1.    Perera, J.H., (2013 October, 25). Gallup poll shows Americans’ support for gun control has waned. The Houston Chronicle. Retrieved from http://www.chron.com/news/nation-world/article/Gallup-poll-shows-Americans-support-for-gun-4925728.php?cmpid=hpfc
2.    Category of Problem: Gun Control
3.    Level of Problem: Federal
4.    This article concerns: America’s support for higher gun control has diminished since 2012.
5.    Importance/affects on families/individuals: This affects every individual and families especially those who are gun owners or who would like to become gun owners.

6.    My Concerns: I believe that there should be strict guns laws in the United States. I feel that while those laws do not always protect the people, without them I feel things would be a lot worse. At least with these laws in place it will hopefully weed out some of the people that would abuse the law. There are always going to be those people who know how to get around the law or who abuse the law but it is somewhat comforting to have those laws into place. Laws are put into place to make the people feel safe and to hopefully weed out some of the bad people without those laws how will people know they are protected and safe where they live?
