IELTS Writing. Would you help me. Hi, Thank you for reading this. I'm going to take an IELTS exam next month. I'm so worry about my writing. Would you help me to correct the essay below? Thank you very much! TOPIC: Some people think a police force carrying guns will increase the crime rate. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Whether police man carrying guns increase the crime rate is an issue that has aroused controversy. Some people tend to believe that police force carrying guns drives up the crime rate. To start with, some armed officers abuse guns and right which, originally, the government gave to them to help others. Specifically, these armed polices usually bully law-abiding citizens or punish criminals stringently just by their own will, which causes tension and conflicts between them. Moreover, unintended gunshot happens sometimes. Apparently, unintended gunshots threaten to citizens, which may cause mental and physical hurt. Finally, the guns which supposed belong to police may possessed by criminals. It is not uncommon that rampant offenders use gun which comes from police, and violate the low. However, many individuals argue that there are no definite link between polices carrying guns and increased crime rate. Firstly, armed officers combat crimes more efficiently, especial armed crimes. With guns carrying, polices could restrain criminals who are committing a crime, thereby decreasing crimes and keeping society safe and stable. Additionally, guns could protect police themselves and citizens. For instance, armed police could protect individuals when these who under attack. Last but not least, polices fells more confident when they are carrying guns. Due to self confident, polices working more efficiently, therefore curb the proliferation of crimes. In summary, I would concede that police carrying guns may increase crime rate. In spite of this, since combating crimes and protecting effect, I believe police force carrying guns actually decreasing crime rate. Overall, I am convinced the armed officers should be well-advised to use guns abiding by the laws.
