Afree flyer made with i smore Gun Control BY: AUREO REIS TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction ‘About the Activist, How Sarah Helps Facts Authors Experience Problem Neovsone Solution INTRODUCTION “s4elpr” you would only hear those words in the cold December of 2012, Sarah Clements has heard this story from her mother, one of the survivors, Her mother said that the only way the kids could be escorted out would be if they closed their eyes and ears to not be scared. Even 50, everyone was scared and were pretty much paralyzed and couldn't do anything at all. ""hey were terrified as the rest of the staff." They knew that there was =— something bad, but they they didn't know already 3 people died. " These kids had a bright future behind them and now that we know that they will be scarred for life all we can do Is watch or teach. Arise in mass shootings “The rato ct such incidents has climbed over the past tree decades, 2 tacked by Motes JonesATA: Mother Jones etoonstarr ABOUT THE ACTIVIST Sarah Clements saw tons of kids that were threatened by a gun in a school shooting at Sandy Hook. “in 2012, Sarah Clements could have been angry and bitter.” Stated judith Slers-Polssan. Soon, Sarah learned to control her anger and turn into confidence and she then went to become an activist for gun control and she has been being supported by tons of others too. After, the speeches the NRA (National Rifle Association) started bringing other people to recommend others to get guns like Sarah Merkle. Using Lobbyists has been the NRA’s best tactic. HOW SARAH HELPS Sarah Clements is making speeches and Is telling more people to be aware of gun control. Sarah sald "We did not elect the NRA" In one of her speeches. The violence of the people started to decrease, because of the speech it was harder get a gun. What she wanted was for people not to be able to get unless you work for a government or a police force and only people trustworthy would get one, Sarah has been doing this after she noticed the Incident at sandy hook naw she has probably been supporting the great people going against the NRA for 5 Year's!FACTS According to www.WPRorg they said that people die mostly from handguns than rifies. which makes It scary because handguns are a lot easier to get than actual rifles. in most school shootings there are just handguns which is crazy! They focus on mostly rifles while handguns are there obtainable at pretty much any gun store and even just at the police camp. I Just hope that more people of this world start to open thelr eyes and focus on what really matters."Clements and her peers might be younger than their adult counterparts, but they are certainly not less effective or committed." sald by @ Huffington Post article. Gun homicides by weapon type I Hordqune Riles Shotguns Ml Other Hl Unknown, AUTHOR'S EXPERIENCE have been living in Brazil for 2 and a half year and i have had lots of experience with guns at least not me using one myself. The reason that Fm used to guns Is because Brazil was so dangerous people were afraid of Just going outside and especially going to the bank because you would easily get attacked because no police were there because the president didivt care not even a litle for the citizens, The story was my uncle driving with me to a water park and after we came back someone with a bike approached us with a gun andknire, was IWo people one PI My Nae ana anotner staoped NIM Just Tor nis Money... Immediately got his phone and called the police which took a bit to arrive with the ambulance but arrived, thank god. The gun was shot in the air and they automatically drove away. Firearm Violence, 2010 uy $42 bin PROBLEM ‘The guns are killing more people every year and hasn't stopped declining at all, why? It's because It started getting easler to get guns because the police carry guns every single place and its everywhere its hard for people to get guns before because they kept It exclusive to only hunters and police for protection of the citizen but now everyone can go get a gun licence and go to a nearby gun store and get @ hand gun. The handguns are semi-cheap while the rest of the things are expensive. SOLUTION/CONCLUSION My solution to the problem would be to make licences for guns harder to obtain and even ‘guns especially handguns. Not only normal guns can kill people too air-soft guns are known to kill people because the pressure will hit a pressure point and immediately startcausing hard breathing and could even clot a vein and make a blood clot which might not the the blood to pass through the body. We could start making tracking devices to know exactly at what time the gun was used and too a finger print detector with cops at all times.
