Gun Control

Gun control is an issue on which Americans are deeply divided, and Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump couldn't be farther apart on it. The fact that the public has so many guns has obligated police officers to arm themselves like soldiers and to become more aggressive in their tactics.

Dear Mr/Mrs President,

I am talking to you about the gun violence in the country. Gun control is an issue on which Americans are deeply divided, and Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump couldn't be farther apart on it. The fact that the public has so many guns has obligated police officers to arm themselves like soldiers and to become more aggressive in their tactics. In the world there are a lot of people that are being killed. Black American males are being killed by cops because some officers think Black males have guns when they don't, and it results in being shot. Kids should not have guns or know where they are, because bad things could happen like they could take it to school. A 14-year-old boy in South Carolina killed his father at home then went to an elementary school and shot two boys and a teacher with a gun he got at home. America needs more gun control.

Sincerely,

Andre
