A
lot of people got stigma on guns because they imagine that guns are made only
for violence and to kill. It’s real that the behaviour of the ownership of the
gun will change a little that’s what the research seems to indicate.
Also researchers like Leonard Berkowitz and Anthony LePage found that having the
presence of firearms nearby made people take more aggressive actions.
Researchers also found out that young
people having exposed to a firearm and gun violence will have negative
psychological impacts in their lives for example a boy indicates that he has a
higher level of anger and stess.
