Blade weapons

Guns have the potential to lead to serious injury and even death. As children, most everyone is taught to be cautious with and generally stay clear from them. The perceived danger and apparent threat of firearms leads people to believe that guns have no place in today’s society. This panic over guns leads to the proposition of policies of controlling, banning, and even taking guns from the people. It is debatable whether or not these policies could help prevent the threat of guns becoming…

The Sherman M4, the Sherman M4A2, the Russian M4A2, and the M4A3E2. These are just some of the types of variations of tanks that were used in WWII. These tanks were made in 1942-1946 and a total of 49,324 sherman tanks were produced in just eleven plants. Although these tanks were only created to be an infantry support they have helped us adjust and further our knowledge on creating new and improved tanks. Let's go back to WWII when we first started using The M4 Sherman tanks and some of the…

Gun laws fill enormous gaps that exist in our nation’s federal laws and also help reduce gun violence and keep the citizens safe. Most of the countries that with the strongest gun laws have the lowest gun death rate. The mass shooting in schools in America is done by kids having control over guns.

with a knife than a gun. This thought is ridiculous because either way the people look at it they’re being assaulted by a deadly weapon. She points out that she would like the opportunity to run from her assailant. If she was assaulted they would have to catch her giving her a chance to run to safety. There is no way you can rationalize being attacked by any weapon. The writer tried to use humor to take away from the seriousness of the subject. This let the reader’s know how serious she…

of guns? A Recent study shows that colors have an impact in human behavior. For example, a prison in Arizona conducted a test on its inmate to reduce violence. By forcing the inmate to wear pink, they were able to see a major drop in violence. The Weapon Colorization Programs wants to have every gun in the United States to be colored in the pink spectrum. It is told that pink tends to relax people, so it won 't massively affect people who use it for hunting, but it can affect people who are…

comments that, “senseless acts of mass violence can never be explained in a way sufficient enough to stop the next attack” (Gregory par. 3). The only way to prevent people from committing these unthinkable acts is to take away their ability to access weapons easily. The American Journal of Public Health released a statement saying, “legal purchase of a handgun appears to be associated with a long lasting increased risk of violent death” (“Gun” par. 11). By strengthening laws and deepening…

I thinks that more police officers are needed, along with marines on rooftops. With criminals in fear of being shot with lethal and nonlethal weapons, they won’t commit crimes.With soldiers on the rooftops, they could spot a crime as they receive a message and they use their tranquilizer weapons. Neutralizing the receiving end of the tranquilizer weapon, then police arresting the offender. This will definitely be very effective because police no longer have to chase on foot, soldiers in the…

“The Guns and Soul of America,” David Brooks, Oct. 6, 2017 The piece “The Guns and Soul of America” by David Brooks, questions the seemingly obvious belief: that as there is an increase in violent deaths and mass shootings involving privately owned firearms, there should also be an increase in stricter gun laws, and a downturn in popular opinion regarding gun ownership. Instead, in his column, Brooks writes to prove that the opposite is the case - that as the instances of mass shootings occur,…

In today’s society, legislation needs to be stressed on the issue of gun control. We live in a culture that glorifies violence, especially by the use of assault weapons in movies and videogames (Scabro).

After Some mass murders that took place in the recent years…
