My reflection on my blog


I am glad that I chose my topic because it was really interesting and I like to talk about guns. Somethings I learned was many people die because of guns, many people own guns, and all the people have very different opinions about guns. An advice I give people is that don't play with guns because they are very dangerous. The one post I would like people to see is my poem because I tried very hard and I think it says the true. Something that I would have done differently is to put more information and put more details in them. I feel that i did a good job on keeping up with the blogs. I think that blogs are easier then typed essays and they are very fun. The easiest part for me was to post comments. The hardest part for me in this assignment was to make-up a poem. I feel that by reading other people blogs was really interesting how they each had different opinions about the topics. Also that they all had really interesting topics which I didn't really know that much about their topics.

Poem


Deaths,deaths,deaths,

and more deaths by firearm

deaths at schools,

deaths at works,

deaths at shopping stores,

deaths everywhere,

people injured, and

people die when,

will this stop?


a person's opinion

Gun control isn't the answer
By James Q. Wilson


I found this information in Los Angeles Times. This person thinks that, they haven't really done anything because we are in the middle of a presidential race and Democratic think that can cause them votes. He also thinks that many other newspapers have judged. For example, one newspaper said that "gun violence has increase when really it has fallen for the last dozen of years."He thinks that it would be almost impossible to confiscate millions of weapons. Also that there is no easy solution on guns just keep on passing laws on gun control. That is what this person thought about guns.I agree with what he thinks because I also think that it would be almost impossible to confiscate millions of weapons and that there is no easy solution on guns.

Map





somethings the map explains is that some states don't want guns any more. For example the green box which is 2 states don't need a permit to have a gun.Then the blue can only have a gun if they take a class and if they pass the background check. The yellow is they must prove a need for the gun or if they are a celebrity. And also explains in some states how much murders have increase. Also tells that chicago and washington D.C. have the highest murder rates.
