Violence in America

Violence in America

America is a violent nation. Many people think that America is full of

freedom and democracy. Do these people actually see what happens in

America? Do they see the violence in schools, the crime in our

society? Most likely, no, these people have loosely seen our society,

the violence and the frauds that plague America's history as well as

the present. The short essay Violence in America demonstrates all

violence in this country. Teddy Bears show how the public feels about

guns and how they are used.

In the Teddy Bears poster, guns are displayed as objects that are not

regulated by laws. The toys are tested for hazardous parts, sharp

edges, and anything else that would harm the consumer. With a gun as

the weapon, the majority of crime and violence often results in death

to the victim. Most guns used for these purposes are unregistered. The

public as well as the government wants gun owners to have background

checks before they buy a new gun. These safety inspections help to

keep guns out of the hands of ex-criminals, psychotic patients, and

other people with questionable backgrounds. The government believes

that this will work for solving gun problems; in actuality, it does

not help that much at all. Violence in America with guns has increased

dramatically. In fact, the homicide rate is the highest in the world.

In Violence of America, the author shows that there is violence

everywhere we look. From the cities to the countries, there are acts

of violence that separate individuals from others. Through America's

history, there have been acts of violence that either have changed the

eyes of the citizens or were ...

...iends, poor marriages, and trouble with the

law when they get older. Statistics show that 60% of bullies between

the grades sixth and ninth had at least one criminal conviction by the

time they turn twenty-four. Points listed above cause most of the

violence in schools, thus proving that that they are violent even

though they appear harmless.

From the start, America has been one of the most violent nations in

the world. Violence can be seen everywhere, from school violence to

riots at job sites, and from rapes to fights. America should come

together not only in the time of need, but at all times and in every

home, school, and workplace to seek ways to reduce the violent

behavior. Unfortunately, on the few occasions, we do resolve violence,

when conflict resumes, it starts all over again as if we never

progressed.
