I’m actually a gun advocate, I won’t deny that gun violence is rising because it is, but there are certain factors that many don’t consider. I wrote a whole paper about this topic two years ago, and unfortunately, accidental discharges and male suicides are what make up the majority of gun violence. Again this was two years ago, so a lot can change.

I have noted in other posts how this could be problematic in Court decisions. District of Columbia v. Heller, a United States Supreme Court case, was one of the first to consider the option of openly carrying a firearm. The NRA sent an amicus brief, where they no doubt hailed info similar if not exactly like this. Very informative.

Your infographic on gun violence is absolutely captivating. As an avid hunter, delving into this topic has always intrigued me, and your study provided a wealth of insightful information. I found it particularly fascinating how the study outlined various ways statistics can be manipulated to suit the agenda of the researcher. It was truly enlightening.

Your infographic is very appealing! Great job! The issue of gun violence will always be one of the most serious debates in the United States. The mass shootings have only gotten worse over the years which is really upsetting to hear and also scary. 458 fatal firearms related accidents is a huge alarming number. Your research is very informative, congratulations on getting nominated!

Unfortunately, the issue of gun violence is one that is so prevalent in the United States and one that also seems like it is one the rise. Nonetheless, this infographic is both aesthetically pleasing and informative on a serious topic, in an easily digestible way. This infographic supports many of the findings I have seen in my on research on gun violence, and relates the sad truth of the matter. Nice job.
