Impactful Political Cartoons About Gun Control
There is a mass shooting virtually every few weeks. Hundreds of men, women, and children die because of gun violence, and still we have no solution. And while we sit around waiting for the next mass shooting to happen, these political cartoons about gun control depict the senselessness, sorrow, and stupidity surrounding the firearms debate.
Jody HopkinsPublished 6 years ago in The SwampWhy American Gun Control Won't Happen
Whilst I think many people will question American gun laws in the light of recent outrages, I want to examine why it’s not a total call for changes. With so many people dying, it seems to those outside the states that a change should be obvious, that assault weapons should be banned and general gun sales limited. In America it appears though that excuses are made for each atrocity and that little attempt is made to change the laws. The N.R.A seems to have control over to many aspects of the attempts to change the laws and their influence seems to hold sway over people’s opinion.

The One True GeekologyPublished 6 years ago in The SwampGuns, Little Word, Big Fear
Guns. To some, the word sends shivers and thoughts of bloody death and assault on little children. To others, the word sends nothing more than happy thoughts as they think of hunting and security. To me, the word sends my eyes rolling, and my head aching, as we continue to see such a loud debate in the media, both news and social.

** As an instructor trained by the NRA and licensed by the BSA, I professionally teach children how to shoot, and what their responsibilities with guns are. I've turned teenage girls into sharpshooters. Feel free to tell me I don't know what I'm talking about.
