Many Americans wonder why gun violence is such a common issue today. Some fear the government is not doing anything to educate the citizens and eradicate guns from the street. Guns are lethal weapons an individual uses as means of protection when in danger, but some people use this weapon for some negligent action and behaviors that raise the question; if stricter gun control would decrease the chance of gun violence in American society. Robert Walker the author of "Passion Shouldn’t Preclude Common Sense" claims that gun violence is an emotional issue, not a topic in the US. Not many Americans even those with guns agree with extreme views that the love of guns should not keep us from reducing gun violence. He suggested that gun violence can be reduced through regulations. Prevent convicted criminals, suspected terrorist and mentally disturbed individual from gaining access firearms, by doing a background check on any individual trying to gain access to guns. Evidence shows that a gun in the home leads to more violence and death. Meanwhile, Jason Riley, author of "More Guns, Less Crime," claims that liberal groups are in support of gun control while the conservatives are against gun control. He shows the effect of both liberal and conservative views on the issue of gun control with evidence from statistical data analysis of gun related crime in the past years. He also revealed that gun record checks have increased due to the incidence in Newtown, Connecticut. And the area where gun owners are high have less violent crime compared to areas where gun owners are low. Although the constitution supports gun ownership, the right of an individual to bear firearms has an influence on the safety of the general public. In reference to Walker's expression on "Passion Shouldn't Preclude Common Sense" it can be said that he persuade his audience by using the Aristotelian appeal. The author persuades his readers who are American citizen, in support and interested in the regulation of law for gun control and violence by using ethos and pathos to show the credibility and worthiness of gun control, and to also show emotions in order to elicit sympathy and reach an agreement on the issue gun violence. Because he suggest ways by which gun control can be effective and violence can be eradicated by denying people who have criminal records, mental disturbance and suspected terrorist the access to bear a gun. He also relate the issue of gun violence to the emotional impact it has on individuals who love guns and those who don't, by making an emotional statement on how first graders are gun down their classroom. On the other hand, Riley expresses his own point of view on "More Gun Less Crime" where he persuades his audiences who are American citizen, against gun control and believe that having gun will reduce violence by using the Aristotelian appeal.
