Why Guns Are Not Fun

Although many television shows, computer/video games, and movies display guns, it is necessary to realize that real guns are dangerous. When adults and children play with or miss use guns, they can end up killing someone.


A real gun is not a toy and they can kill someone. Guns have enough power to tear through your skin, muscles, and even your bones. A gunshot can injure you for life or even kill you.

This is why it is so important to not play with real guns. When kids how were ask about their gun accidents they say they did not mean to fire the gun. NEVER point a gun at anyone, including yourself even if you are joking


Are real guns toys?


NO--Real guns are not toys

Gun Safety at Home

Guns at home should be locked in a safe with the safety on.

Tell your parents they can get free gun locks from your local police department

Gun Safety At School

If someone at school threatens you or says they are going to bring a gun to school tell an adult right away.

If you are nervous about doing this in front of other students ask your teacher or principal to talk with them in a private meeting.

Tell you mom or your dad too

NO it is never okay to bring a gun to school.

Conclusion

Researching the topic of gun safety made me realize how important it is to educate children about gun safety. It was interesting to me that you can get free gun safety locks at your local police department. Creating this powerpoint challenged me to learn about the different uses and animations of the powerpoint program.
