Prevent Gun Violence

How much Lobbyist’s Spend on gun control

Why People Still Have Guns as Weapons?

Reason Why teenagers are able to buy guns.

It’s in the Constitution in the Second Amendment

as one of our rights

But we also have the right to life, liberty,

and the pursuit of happiness

Give Life A Chance

Shouldn’t live in fear

Do we really want our children

To learn about killing each other?

There are different ways People can protect

Themselves

Tasers

Mace

Alarm Systems

I’M NOT SAYING I’M AGAINST GUNS

COMPLETELY THEY JUST NEED TO BE IN THE RIGHT HANDS
