Message
Guns are very dangerous objects and should not be allowed on the streets. I get it if you use a firearm to hunt or you are a policeman, but if you aren't any of those things, then why would you need a gun?
Call to action
Make people really think before getting a gun that they really don't need. And if u have guns at home, make sure your kids won't be able to get them.
