Some people believe that if a police force carries guns, this encourages higher level of violence in that society.To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

There are many ways of reducing violence in society. Part of the community thinks that if a policeman holds a gun in his or her hand, that would scare off people who are up to no good. But I think there are some other tools that are highly effective. It is better to compose tight laws in order to prevent crimes from happening.

Moreover

, it may control individuals from involving in bad things If the government is well capable of generating laws subjected to the types and rates of the crimes reported in the cities. The USA, as a salient example, shows that police forces holding guns do nothing to control gun violence in the country. Laying more rules and regulations over eligibility checks to obtain guns may result in discouraging the purchase of weapons in the

place. Violent acts should discourage starting from early childhood.

Furthermore

, parents and preschool teachers have the responsibility of teaching the kids about the harm that they could cause by involving in bad acts as it may reduce crimes in the future. Fear of getting punished for a lifetime resulted in not getting involved in any. In Sri Lanka, a separate subject is available for students above grade six to follow regarding the common law of the country. I believe that, ultimately, a collaboration between governments and society would cause in getting down the number of violence. Scaring off adults with guns is not just enough for a city filled with lots of people with different mindsets.
