GUN REGULATION

The article " Do We Have the Courage to Stop This?", by Nicholas D. Kristof is about people thinking the real reason why that people die so much is because of guns and that they should make regulations about owning a gun. As said in the article there has been around 300 Americans dying a year from ladders, and guns 30,000. According to David Hemenway, children ages 5 to 14 in America is 13 times more likely to be murdered with guns as children in other industrialized countries.
This article is informal because this is something that I feel deeply about. I fear for my younger sisters that the could get shot because crazy people getting out of hand with a gun. If the government don't do something about this problem, us people in our community will. I don't want to wake up anymore knowing that my sisters and me might not be safe.
This reminds me of the time that I didn't clean my room. My mom told me to clean it before it got worst, but me being an disrespectful child, I didn't want to listen and by the end of the week I got in trouble because my roon was terrible and I knew I should have cleaned it at the beginning of the week when it was.t the dirty, but that was my fault and that's what the government should to before the problem get's worse.
This is sad and it helped me understand how important my life is and now I know that I should look out for me and my sisters before a problem like this get's out of hand.
