15A - Figuring Out Buyer Behavior #2

• Report findings and draw conclusions:
• In each interview I was given a totally new perspective on how to raise awareness for wrongful gun use.
•  My interview with Skyler was really helpful, she brought up that the best way to raise awareness on my issue would be to raise money to increase background checks on gun owners. She thinks background checks should be done monthly to see how the gun owner is doing, how they are feeling emotionally, have they encountered any physical harm in the last month, and have they been using the gun regularly or does it just sit in a drawer in their home for safety reasons. 
• My second interview was also very insightful. I interviewed a friend of mine that owns a gun for safety reasons, but he believes there needs to be more control over gun use to stop abuse. His idea was to have a non-profit event every six months to raise awareness in my community on the abuse of gun use today. I could send out letters to my neighbors and talk with friends and family to get them to attend the event. He believes it is only getting worse, with the amount of mass shootings increasing every year, and it needs to come to a stop.
• My third interview gave me the best perspective on how to go about my opportunity. Leslie believes I should raise money to give to the state/government by starting a gofundme to be able to track guns so they cannot be sold illegally to someone that should not be able to own a gun. It is way too easy to get your hands on a gun and I believe that is half the problem with these mass shootings or just any shooting in general. No innocent person deserves to die because of someone in the wrong state of mind having a gun. 
• This segment truly opened my eyes to the different possibilities I have to raise awareness for wrongful gun use and to help stop mass shootings in our country. All three of my interviewees said they would love to give money towards these regulations and would also bring their friends and family to attend a non-profit event to raise awareness in our community. They believe the money would be going to good use, they also fully support stopping innocent people from dying for all the wrong reasons.This can be a huge step in the right direction for my opportunity of raising awareness for wrongful gun use and to stop the mass shootings in our country.
