Hien Tieu Dr. Liz Ann Baez Anguilar ENGL 1302.012 1st October 2015 Lyric Time Dickinson and the Limits of Genre Cameron, Sharon. “Lyric Time Dickinson and the limits of genre”, library of congress cataloging in publication data. The Johns Hopkins University Press, Baltimore and London. 1979. (66) I should like to offer two conventional paraphrases of the poem, which I shall then suggest are inadequate. In the first, picked up by God, the speaker becomes His marksman: the mountains resound with…
Dennis Dinardo is going to be prosecuted for reckless disregard to human life because of the amount of danger he put everyone in. This is the right way to go because he was correct that Washington had a gun and was running with a purpose after the shots were fired. Charging Dinardo with attempted murder would be too much because he was right to take the shots he did and not charging him would not be right either because he fired multiple shots into crowd of chaos. The race of both men is not…
In 2015, 12,223 people died because of gun incidents. Gun violence is a substantial issue that should not be taken lightly. Gun violence should not be taken lightly because many people are losing their lives at faster speeds because of guns and the people who choose to pull that trigger and take off the safety. After thorough investigation we found that gun violence is a serious issue but there are other issues to worry about relating to gun violence that are important and add to the death of…
“Now when you are ready you can slide the safety switch over to the fire your gun should glow red when you do. Today your goal is to score the most points. The closer you get to the bullseye the more points you can get. You can fire when ready and when you run out of ammo set your gun down and flip the switch to safety. Oh and there is one other thing, you will rarely fire at stationary targets.” He reached up and pulled a lever down the targets began to move back and forth. “Now go.” I then…
When the author Brian Capps talked about remembering the first time he shot his first shotgun, I immediately thought about my first time shooting a shotgun, OUCH! Wasn’t that hard to think about. I was ten years old at my friend’s house with my parents when they were shooting in the back yard at clay pigeons. My buddy and I where captivated by the sound and watching the clay pigeons break that we wanted to shoot at the clay pigeons too. I don’t remember the make and model of the shotgun but I do…

This week’s reading in Guns 101 was one that I believe could do a lot of good for someone new to the firearms scene. I see so many people buy firearms without knowing anything but what TV and movies tell them, it’s a crying shame… I’ve seen someone purchase a desert eagle with every intention of using it as a primary carry piece and when I tried to explain to them how bad of an idea it was they just rattled off movies and shows where someone carried one. Another thing that is so much more…
I believe that guns are unsafe and that the are causing danger to all people. Unless they are used the proper way. Guns? Yes or No? Do think that everyone should be able to have a gun or that guns are safe. I think that not everyone should be able to have a gun. I also think that guns are not safe for police,kids, and the citizens of the world. My first reason the safety for the police. You hear on the News about Police getting shot and killed. Its sad to think of there family wanting them…
This week article was “30 Caliber Throwdown: .308 Winchester verses .30-06” written by Chris Baker.

Both .30-06 and .308 are accurate and have moderate recoil with an impressive…
