SHOULD EVERYONE BE ALLOWED TO CARRY GUNS?
Good night and welcome to CHEER-UP, the best of the
best radio programmes! At tonight’s programme we are going to introduce a new
discussing topic: Do you think that everybody should be allowed to carry guns
if they want to? We are so lucky people because tonight we count with the point
of views of two of the most famous young people in America
MA: Hello America
LA: Yes! Hello everybody! I think people
should be allowed to carry a gun; there would be less crime if no one knew who
was caring.
MA: Never. Not everyone should be allowed to carry the
gun as there is a danger that this person will use it for bad purposes. How can
we feel safe when we know anyone can have a gun and use it against us?
LA: People who commit crimes don't care about laws that
prevent them from carrying them; they are going to commit a crime. So when I
walk to the street I prefer to know that everybody has a gun because then I
will be alert and I can protect myself too.
MA: I don’t agree with you. I don't think they make
you any safer because it is more likely to die in a crime committed if there is
a gun possessed by the victim. What criminal wants to die? If they know that
the victim possessed a gun they are going to do what it takes to survive.
LA: Well yesterday I read an
article about how a man who was concealed carrying a gun was able to stop a criminal
at a supermarket. So yes people should be allowed to carry guns as long as they
are responsible with them.
MA: Probably, sometimes it can be propitious, but it
doesn’t depend on the responsibility. Some people obviously need to
carry guns, for example policemen and security personnel. The problem is that
most people who carry guns have either no proper training to handle a gun.
Moreover, a lot of people killed by privately owned hand-guns are members of
the family of the gun owner. Great protection indeed!
That’s all for tonight! It’s time to go so thank you
Laura and thank you Marçal. We are very grateful to have had you this evening
with us. What is clear is that there are too many things to think
about before making anything absolute. That’s the conclusion of tonight’s programme
come tomorrow and listen the new topic discus. Thank you for your collaboration
and good night.
