A challenging aspect of today’s society is the need to address stronger gun control possibilities. New gun control bills could easily be placed on the ballots, but questioning the ability to have long term effects if much different. Many gun owners are set in old ways and never want to see the changes that could affect their way of life. Just like many of the members of the National Rifle Association that believe background checks are enough and it should stay that way.

Members of the NRA keep a close watch on federal regulations that could impact their way of thinking. One politician that comes to mind is Hillary Clinton, she has been against guns her entire life and has tried tirelessly to ban guns for good.

Keeping a gun near ammunition in a house with teenage boys who don’t properly respect firearms. Could be considered criminally reckless and irresponsible; both are deadly accidents waiting to happen”(Elliot 50). Lots of gun owners keep guns lying around the house instead of locking them up in a safe or a place that cannot be accessed by children. If a larger percentage of gun owners took responsibility and understood the consequences that were involved with bad decisions violence rates could be
