Should Our Right to Bear Arms Be Revoked? “A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed”, the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution. Now we ask the questions, do guns’ kill people or do people kill people? Should our right to bear arms be revoked because an individual makes an unacceptable decision? Is it right that all people be forced to ‘gun control’ because of one person’s…

If a spoon doesn’t make people fat and cars don’t wreck themselves. Then why do we blame guns for killing people. It has been a big controversy for the last couple of years whether we should make gun control laws stricter or not. Should they ban clips with more than 15 rounds? Should they change the open carry law? Do gun salesmans need to be stricter on the sales of guns? People need to realize that guns are not the problem and banning them isn’t going to stop criminals from getting them…

One of the winners of the Victorian Cross was William Coltman, where he was said to be brave. He didn’t fire a single shot during the World War, but was instead a stretch-bearer. He went alone in front of fire, found casualties, and dressed them them on many points of time. He carried comrades to safety, and even saved lives. Leefe Robinson was the first British soldier to shoot down a German zeppelin airship. He was also the first person to be awarded VC in The U.K. He was the first…

medieval-like weapons and traditions. This idea strongly presents itself in the interview with David Forbes who talks about humanities use of castles and medieval customs for survival. Technology in a lot of instances became useless since resources such as ammunition were limited in some areas. This caused the people to find other weapons for protection. On page 192 David Forbes says to the interviewer, “what else could we do when the bullets ran out and we were left with nothing else but an odd…

Due to the shortage of supplies in the south, men were forced to bring their own ammunition and guns to the war. In terms of money, the south had extreme small amounts compared to the north.
