What could be done to reduce gun violence?


Firstly, Integral Background Checks: To stop people with a history of violence or mental health concerns from obtaining firearms, implement and enforce universal background checks for all gun sales, including private transactions(Everytown, 2023).Secondly, to better identify and treat potential risk factors for violence, increase access to mental health services and support. Thirdly, enact and execute "red flag" laws, which permit temporary firearm confiscation from anyone believed to be a risk to themselves or others. These laws are also known as extreme risk protection orders (ERPOs).Fourthly, ban on assault weapons: Take into account enacting limitations or prohibitions on the purchase and ownership of assault weapons with military-style design and large-capacity magazines. Fifthly, storage requirements for firearms: Encourage secure gun storage and enact legislation requiring it in order to prevent unwanted access. Then, Invest in community-based violence prevention initiatives that deal with the underlying causes of violence and offer assistance to those who are vulnerable. Lastly, make laws stronger to protect victims of domestic abuse and bar those who have committed the crime from obtaining firearms. It's essential to remember that no single solution can completely eliminate gun violence, but a combination of these strategies can help reduce its occurrence and create safer communities. Additionally, any efforts to address gun violence should respect individuals' rights while prioritizing public safety.

When does the guns first used?

 They have been around for more than a thousand years and have influenced conflict(Tactics | Definition, Examples, History, & Facts, 1998).Around the year 850 C.E., Chinese alchemists were trying to create a "fountain of youth" potion when they unintentionally created gunpowder. Charcoal, saltpeter, and sulfur were combined to create the final powder, known as huo yao. They discovered the powder could be used for warfare very fast. Gunpowder was initially utilized by the Song Dynasty, which was in power at the time, to defeat the Mongols, whose recurrent incursions into China troubled the Chinese throughout the period.Fire lances, also known as "flying fire," were used by the Chinese to assault the Mongols. These weapons were arrows fitted with gunpowder tubes that, when lit, would fly across the enemy's lines. Over the ensuing decades, as the Chinese perfected a wide range of weaponry against the Mongols, including the first cannons and grenades, more gunpo...

What are the White House proposals?

Acording to the White House on March14, President Biden will make an executive order announcement in Monterey Park, California, with the aim of boosting the number of background checks performed before the sale of firearms and bringing the United States as near to having universal background checks as possible without additional legislation. The Executive Order will also reinforce efforts to hold the gun industry accountable, keep more firearms out of dangerous hands by enhancing the effective use of "red flag" regulations, and speed up law enforcement efforts to find and apprehend the shooters posing a threat to our communities. The Federal Trade Commission is being urged by President Biden to publish a report that examines how gun makers sell to children.
