Gun Control in the United States of America: A policy towards change
Statistics have indicated a drastic increase in the number of mass shootings in the U.S over the last five years (Pew Research Centre, 2023). This surge in gun violence has sparked heated debates about the root causes of such incidents, with diverging views on how to address the issue. Some attribute the rise in mass shootings to mental health problems, while others point to a lack of adequate gun regulations and enforcement. This complex issue continues to challenge lawmakers, prompting calls for both stricter gun control and more effective mental health interventions to mitigate future tragedies.
