Laws and Guns

* I want to voice my agreement with the opinions given in the article “Banning, Taxing Ammo: Can’t Hurt” (Nov. 15).

As technology continues to grow, handguns and firearms continue to improve. To compensate, the laws must become tougher and more restricting to cut down on the increasing threat of violence.

I hope our government will take ideas, (such as) taxing bullets and passing laws requiring waiting periods, into consideration, to help cut down on gun violence. I know passing laws will not completely solve the gun problem in America, but it sure is a step in the right direction.
