Connection: The Second amendment in the Bill of rights states the right to bear arms. In this article there where people shot by guns. These people had a right to have these weapons. Another connection is that the party that the shooting took place was a New Years party which is a national holiday celebrating the beginning of a new year and the ending of an old one.
Why: This article is a shocking but credible story the contains death on a day of happiness and joy, this is the reason I picked this article.

What a sad way for one family to start their New Year.
Do you think banning guns would put an end to violence, or would the people who commit these acts still keep/use guns illegally?
I think that if you ban guns then it would help prevent less accidents for those who use it only for protection or hunting. But those who do this i doubt that it will affect them in any way. I think that they would go to using the illegally. But,some might behave better but i doubt it. And others may find other explosives or weapons to use instead of guns.
