This blogger J
Hines posted “Here’s Why some People don’t understand about Gun Control” to
defend the second amendment and supported his claim with poor evidence. First
of all, this blogger failed to title his work in a coherent fashion, so naturally
we already see where this argument is heading. J Hines has no credibility nor
evidence, other than his opinion, to back up his argument. His intended
audience is virtually anyone who will agree with his opinionative argument.
This blogger is desperately
trying to guard gun laws by adding in uncited statistics. “However the
statistics have proven time and time again that the rate of violent crime will
go up even if ordinary, law-abiding citizens are denied ownership of guns.” Unfortunately,
there was no credible source noted to back up this statistic. He is hopelessly
defending the idea that gun ownership does not lead to gun violence. Does this
really have any logic behind it? The ratio between gun owners and gun owners
that kill, is very low. Most people who own firearms do not pertain in killing
others, but the process through which those individuals purchased the gun is
where the problem lies. The Rights seem to call the Left crazies and vice
versa, but who is really right? Both sides have valid arguments and I think
that compromises can be made. Firearms should not be as accessible as they have
been in the past. Although laws and regulations are being put into place, gun
owners still exist and are scaring the majority. Overall, this bloggers argument is unclear and does not have respectable sources backing up his claim.
