Breech-loading weapon

Yesterday, on the 1st of October 2015, there was a mass shooting at a community college in Oregon. Fifteen people died and ten were injured. This is fifth school shooting of 2015, and the 117th since 2000. These people, who went to learn in a safe and enriching environment, were murdered in cold blood in front of their professors and peers. Why? Why do so many shootings happen in the United States? Even after shootings like Columbine and Sandy Hook, nothing has changed. Rather than changing the…

Gun Control: Shooting Themselves in the Foot There are two major questions that are always asked when gun control is on the agenda: Is it effective? Is it constitutional? After looking at the most pertinent evidence, some conclude that the writers of the constitution wanted to protect an individual's right to keep a gun in his home to protect his family and property. On the other hand, some believe that the Second Amendment should not be related to gun control laws of today and that outlawing…

Do you use an electrical drill? Now you don’t have to use all of the electricity that you have to use to use the drill. Now you have a drill that you can take to work without have to plug it in or use batteries. All you need with the manual hand drill is you have to be willing to work. Manual hand drills may take a lot of work but will save your electricity bill.The manual hand drill can be taken and used anywhere because of it not having to be plugged into the wall. You can just put it…

There has been a persisting problem since the beginning of time, and that is the killing of innocents, not that killing criminals is any better. This year in the United States, there has only been twelve days where innocent individuals haven’t been shot. There are 365 days in a year, and only twelve days, no one has been shot. Twelve days. That really says a lot about a country, especially one deemed as the greatest country in the world. Nothing says great about people being shot and having no…

is the leader of gun ownership and takes their constitutional rights to bear arms very seriously as well as ranks first out of 178 countries when it comes to gun ownership (Fitzpatrick, 2015). Americans have nearly 90 weapons per 100 populations, this could indicate the amount of public mass shooters in the U.S (Fitzpatrick, 2015). Rwanda and Russia might be considered dangerous places after all Russia’s homicide rate is 2.5 times higher than the U.S, yet Russia has relatively…

guarded gun for law implementation officers. Smith and Wesson M&P Shield Accessible in both 9mm and .40 bore, the S&W Shield is a thin and reduced M&P gun. With an edge width of 0.95 inches, it is anything but difficult to cover and as an on holiday weapon, would be extremely agreeable. "The gun's precision was astonishing," watches creator Dave Bahde. "Given its short barrel length, I tried the gun at 15 yards, yet it displayed astounding exactness out to 25 yards." The industry is showing…

The gun control debate has presented itself to be a sensitive topic, especially with the high frequency of mass shootings in recent years. However, enacting gun control would help with many more problems associated with gun violence than one initially thinks. The United States needs more restrictions on the sale of guns because of the high rate of gun-related homicides, the expensive cost associated with gun violence, and the large issue of insensitivity to gun deaths. One of the biggest reasons…

A contributing factor for these school shootings is that each of the shooters was given access to guns even though they had mental issues. The Columbine shooters had a friend buy their guns. Howard Pankratz, form The Denver Post, reported that a co-worker of Harris and Klebold introduced them to Mark Manes, the guy that sold them the guns they used in the shooting. Harris and Klebold met up with Manes at a gun show and purchased one of the guns used. This purchase was illegal since both Harris…

I am a conservative, which means I view Donald Trump as a great president for the United States and not just a big ugly grandpa. Not all, but most of my views and opinions are more on the conservative side. I believe keeping our gun rights, and less immigration is a good idea for us as a country. My opinion on gun rights is that if you, are not a psychotic loser, and do not have a criminal background, you should be able to own guns. I would not feel very safe if we had our gun rights…

declining numbers in suicides, with more gun laws it could reduce the number of gun murders per year. According to Background on Gun Control, “Over 100,000 people are shot each year in the U.S; 72% of all violent killings, guns were used as the murder weapon.” Many citizens carry guns on them, that is certain. If they were to get into a conflict on the streets they could easily pull out the gun and use it. Saying, with knowing there is a gun present could make a situation worse than it really…
