approximately 200 nautical miles away. Conventional weapons generally require a propellant to fire a projectile to inflict damage either by piercing or by explosion of the target. Some examples of conventional weapons would be cruise missiles or rifles which use a chemical propellant (explosion of gun power to fire a bullet and burning of liquid fuel to propel the missile) to gain high velocities until the point of impact. The principle of conservation of momentum explains the projection. As…

There have been many shootings in the past and certainly some awaiting us in the future. Some of these shootings can be prevented with a Legislative branch and some officials to approve it. For example, the Las Vegas shooting would have been less costly if Nevada had a law that limited the capacity of that individual's magazine. With a law like that, the United States can make these situations less costly to people’s lives and possibly prevent them from happening in the first place, starting…

Second the common hunting practices critics object to and call reckless are, for the most part, equally as safe as many other common activities. This is not to say that there are no possible dangers associated with hunting, or that it is even the safest sporting activity, but rather that a non-hunting person has a conceivably much larger risk of being put in danger doing everyday mundane activities than a hunter does while hunting.

I should feel honored and privileged to be a part of this monumental amphibious assault, but the feeling of fear and trepidation are setting in as the cracking sounds of gun shots approached. The boats suddenly stopped and someone screamed “GET IN THE WATER, GET IN THE WATER NOW! Suddenly soldiers got shot before they could even…

age of 18 in Iowa can just walk into a sporting goods store and buy a shotgun or rifle. Do you want people not suited to use a firearm get one that easily? People without the right gun training can be a danger to everyone around them including themselves. No one will be able to tell what they really want to do with that gun.
