    This week’s reading in Gunsmith Kinks was one that I believe could do a lot of good for someone new to shotgun choking. Before reading the words of V.M. Starr in our reading this week I had next to no knowledge about how to choke a shotgun. Mr. Starr went on to explain that “his first experience choking a shotgun was in an old blacksmith shop on the farm in Ohio where he was born”. He stated that he and his father “took a shot-out muzzle loading rifle and bored it to about 24 gauge and worked a choke into it”. I wouldn’t in a million years think to turn a shot-out rifle into a shotgun.…

    Uneven Ground From the perspective of a teen in a world filled with injustice and constant newsflashes about racists and movements for equality, I’m trained to see things in tunnel vision. I’m trained to view my culture as the very “developed” and “civilized” United States as superior to other cultures despite its flaws. I’m trained to look down upon Middle Eastern countries as they are all “terrorists”. When I turn on the television I hear talk about this white policeman, that black policeman. However, at the exact same time, if any of these opinions were explicitly stated out loud, I would surely be called a racist, a Trump.…

    Jared Diamond, in Chapter 19 of the novel Guns, Germs, and Steel, proposes that the black Bantu ethnic group was able to exert dominance over the other four cultural groups in Africa in areas that food production was viable because the Bantu’s sedentary lifestyle was greatly advantaged compared to hunter-gatherers living in the same area. Diamond supports his claims by illustrating the major societal and organizational difference between the Bantu and hunter-gatherer groups and pointing to the methods by which the Bantu expansion was carried out. The author’s purpose is to show what environmental factors led to certain peoples asserting dominance over others in order to support his theory about geographic determinism and refute racist explanations about the fates of human societies. The author writes in a logical scientific tone for an educated and intellectually honest audience. The factors all come together to allow Diamond to create a convincing argument about the factors that led to the Bantu expansion in Africa.…

    Attorney General Kamala D. Harris claims the new laws that fall under “assault weapons”. She explains different weapons that can be considered a “assault weapon”: “A semiautomatic, center fire rifle that has the capacity to accept a detachable magazine and any one of the following: a pistol grip that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the weapon, a thumbhole stock, a folding or telescoping stock, a grenade launcher or flare launcher, a flash suppressor, a forward pistol grip” (Kamala D. Harris). Anything that can detach a magazine quick and easy without a “bullet button” that feeds ammunition into a fire arm illegal. Harris sets up the new state law for California in an organized fashion, where no misinterpretations can be made, at least for understanding the new general law towards “assault weapons”. She gives a definition of an “assault weapon” with a list following the definition, to make it clear towards what category of guns can be “assault weapons: Shotguns, Semi-Automatic, and…

    “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, there is then a correlating pattern of states loosening gun control laws. He then presents a larger issue that may be at hand: that gun ownership, or the opinion against it, represents an American’s “values and identity,” that the argument for or against…
