tokens: Gun control and increasing violence Some people may argue that allowing policemen to carries firearms can increase violence in the society . To some extent, I do not agree with this assertion because I believe that criminal minds that breed violence not stringent gun control . First of all, it seems to be true that if there is gun control somehow crime has to decrease because fewer guns available mean less crime . However, this is not as simple as it sounds . In fact, stringent gun control does not decrease violence and crime because most gun violence is committed with guns obtained illegally . People who are intent to commit crime and control cities through gang violence and other means will find a way to continue to use guns, regardless of gun control . Moreover, there will be law non-abiding people anywhere in the world, either polices or common citizens . As a result, the root of violence is criminal mind not the weapon itself . Therefore, if a government wants to control crime in a community, it is important to manage their people's actions rather than gun used in violent crimes . All in all, it is obvious that there is a poor relationship between polices carrying guns and an increasing violence rate . On the other hand, criminal mind seems to be more related to violence . Consequently, we should pay more attention to adjust people's behaviors in order to reduce crimes instead of gun control .
