Opinion piece: Gun control and illegal\u00a0drugs\u00a0<\/i>
\nRecently there has been more talk on gun control, due to the shootings in the past couple months.
\nTonight on the news, they were talking about a 12-year-old girl who is suing AG Jeff Sessions because she was forced to move to Colorado so she could get cannabis oil for epilepsy. \u00a0She wants to make it legal to have in all states so she and her family can move back to Texas.
\nSessions argument against legalizing drugs like marijuana is that people will start selling it on street corners if it is legal (yes, he is that out of touch with reality).
\nThis got me thinking about the possible gun control laws that want to ban all guns. \u00a0In my opinion, if you make true ban laws for guns, what you are essentially doing is making it so law-abiding citizens have to jump through hoops to get what they need, but the bad guys will still be able to get guns easily, because they don’t follow the proper outlets to get them. \u00a0This will put citizens at a greater risk and may lead to more of these mass shootings.
\nUntil tomorrow…
