So I come from a conservative household where my parents fully believe in the right to own guns. Of course though I am a millennial so I have grown up to become more tolerant. I describe myself as a libertarian where Im more republican on the economic side and more liberal on the social side. Gun control then ends up being one of those issues that falls somewhere in the middle as its not really social or economic.
So now we are to yesterday which was national walk out day where students left there school and got up and walked out for 17 minutes. This trended the hashtag #WalkOut and those who did not agree trended #WalkUpNotOut arguing that it is the students who are left out and ignored are more likely to cause these mass tragedies.
So I just don't see why we cant do both. This nation was born on compromise and it needs to be applied to gun control. There needs to be stronger background checks but there is no reason to band any guns quite yet. A lot of things can be used to destroy many lives like cars for examples. I think people have to right to their opinion and collaboration is the key to success. Its time to #WalkUpANDOut . This should not be that hard to think of yet each side is very extreme on their views. Overall this nation needs to come together and share ideas like civil human beings before people need to go to the extreme.
