I have to do a 4-6 minute persuasive speech for class and about the only topic I can think of was gun control. I have to have three main points. The first will be on certain restrictive laws. The second will be on statistics, and the third will be on a solution.

I was thinking about getting the laws and stats from the UK where they recently banned. Where could I find these laws and stats?

So... ideas and links?

Violent crimes in the UK. Also if you want a shocker look up the stats in Australia and Japan.

I think you could do speech on the Mexican gangs, how the anti-gunners want to blame the US for the firepower, and the proff that the guns and grenades aren't availble in the US. You can then show the whole anti-gun side is based on distorted facts and fear mongering.

I dont know the correct stats but I dont ever remimber there being a mass murder like the one at Ft Hood, Lubys, or any other place that was not in a "gun free" zone.

Start with the NRA.

I like it because it's domestic, it's proveable, and it's recent.

Point a gun at the one student that is against gun control and ask "Don't you wish you had a gun now?"

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

His response will be " You shouldn't have one." Then the gunman gets arrested.
