Critical Analysis Of The Qualitative Research Article

I have revised my thesis statement to two sentences, rather than one. This is so that my point can be understood in a more effective way. My thesis statement is as follows. “There should be more stringent screening processes for individuals wanting to own guns in the United States because the current laws and regulations do not require mental health background checks and evaluations. Too many people with mental health issues are slipping through the cracks and obtaining weapons and then using them on innocent people.”

People with the disease experience diarrhea, fever, fatigue, abdominal pain, cramping, internal bleeding, mouth sores, reduced appetite and weight loss. Many affected by Crohn’s disease possess a low-grade fever and low energy. Severe abdominal pain and cramping is caused by inflammation clogging the digestive tract.
