Whats so Special about Kennesaw?
One of my main points I used in my most recent paper about Firearms in America was one about a small city in Georgia called Kennesaw. This small city that has around 33,000 people is special because it has a record low 2% violent crime rate and hasn't had a murder in the last 6 years. You might ask how is this possible and its all to a passed city ordnance from 1982 that made it law for each head of household to own a firearm.
The stats are shocking and is able to be used as a tool of rhetoric by republicans to poke holes in democratic arguments that want to do away with the 2nd amendment. There is more evidence to go even deeper but that has to be saved for the multi modal presentation

I like how you used models in your blog. Also it is great to see things from a different point of view, Whether it is representing a different opinion than your own.
ReplyDeleteI do think this is interesting but I am not sure how well it would work in a larger scale. It just doesn't seem like a very logical explanation to the debate on firearms.
ReplyDeleteI feel like you should have compared Kennesaw and another small city and then compare the two instead of the entire state of Georgia and the USA.
