Safety is defined as a state in which a person protects himself from any arm that can arise. Safety has become a key concern for many people in the world today. It is clearly understood that where there is no safety, there are more chances of harm or even death. The study done so far proves that if it were not for the safety we have, the chances of death could be rising at an alarming rate. Safety has also brought about freedom to people and enabled them to work on their daily duties without fear. (Gordon 31)
Many people think that safety can only be brought about by things like buying a gun. Although this may seem right, there are so many things that help in safety. In buying a gun, it may seem that one is fully protected but there are a number of things that should be considered in enabling complete safety in every area. First, living in an area where there is sufficient security will participate a lot in guaranteeing one’s safety. People who consider safety will not risk living in an area where there is no security.
The government should also participate in ensuring security. By so doing, enough security should be put in place to ensure that people live without fear. Security should be enforced in every corner so that people will not run the risk of being robbed, killed among other issues. (Boy Scouts of America 29)
Also, the government should ensure that proper teaching is ensured on how to handle one’s safety. People should be told how it would be risky to involve in some issues like careless driving. They should be taught much on how to drive carefully, thus ensuring safety on the roads. The government should put awareness in too much alcohol drinking. This has participated a lot in endangering people’s safety. The government should also put stern measures in ensuring that safety is maintained in every corner.
Walking in integrity will participate a lot in safety. People who walk in integrity will not be involved in cases that might endanger their safety. Since these are people who walk in honesty, there will be low chances of tempering with safety hence increasing a person’s safety. All these among others have participated in ensuring people’s security. (Gordon 31)
Although guns are recognized fully in maintaining people’s safety, they have brought much harm to society. So far, many cases that have been reported are brought about by incidents related to guns. Studies carried by many researchers show that those people owning guns commit suicide either due to extreme anger or criticism from society. Most daily reports we get of deaths are related to guns. This proves that guns are not the only equipment that can increase a person’s safety. (Boy Scouts of America 30)
Conclusion
Safety has played a great role in ensuring that people enjoy their stay in this world. Safety can only remain firm if the areas that bring it about are looked at. Some factors like government participation, walking in integrity, and living in secure places are some of the issues that have made safety to stand firm. Although it is believed that a gun can increase safety, the opposite has been proved to be true. It is believed that many deaths we experience today are caused by the gun. It is important for the government to remain committed to ensuring g that people’s safety is guaranteed.
