Scholars who support gun control in Canada argue that gun
control in Canada reduces violence by restricting access to guns (rather than by
imposing severe sentences on those who use guns illegally). Therefore, the argument
goes, further restrictions on guns would make gun violence even rarer and would thereby
make Canada a safer place.
The link below provides access
to a number of articles arguing in favor of stricter gun control laws. It argues, for
example, that having more restrictive gun laws in Canada would reduce the number of
suicides, the number of fatalities in domestic violence situations, and the number of
children being accidentally killed by firearms that they find in their homes. All of
these things would make Canada safer.
I strongly suggest
that you follow the link below and explore for yourself. You can get much more detail
there than we are able to provide here.
