On Sunday, January 8th 2011, a shooting occured in Tucson, Arizona. The gunman of the shooting was a twenty-two year man by the name of Jared Lee Loughner. Due to his outrageous behavior there were 6 deaths including a nine year old girl and a federal judge, and 13 people were reported to have been wounded and among those there were a Arizona Congresswomen Democratic Representative Gabrielle Gifford.
There were no reports found on why the gunman would commit such a crime but because of his actions he has been filed with five charges, and a possible death penalty.
Now due the Tucson Tragedy the dead issue is brought to a Gun Control problem. And the question is why are there guns being given to people like Loughner who has a mental condition and is a potential harm to others. One Person quoted that "it is as easy to buy a gun as it is to buy a latte from Starbucks!"
I do believe there should be something done about the the easy access to guns and there should be be more control over who gets them and only under certain conditions should they be used.
