Abstract
This case study contains mentions of suicide, gun violence, and related topics that some readers may find distressing. Reader discretion is advised. Over the past few years, it has appeared that instances of gun violence have been more prevalent. There have been numerous accounts of mass shooting events, many of which have targeted schools and major events like concerts. This has provoked a feeling of unease and fear in many individuals, as these occurrences are almost routinely subjected on news networks. To confront this topic, this study explores the relevant firearm policies that govern the access to firearms and the practices of firearm safety requirements.
