Early thermal weapons

bigger problem. They had a buzz-in system at Sandy Hook, but it did them no good at all, the guy shot his way in. School-associated student homicide rates decreased significantly after the federal laws restricting guns in schools were adopted in the early 1990s, and fewer students are carrying guns. Proposals offered by the gun lobby to repeal the federal Gun-Free School Zones Act and arm teachers as a solution to curb those rare instances of gun violence at school.Teachers are not trained law…

Manifesto: Gun Violence in America - Inspired by the Work of Henry David Thoreau I lately gave attention to a news report regarding a brutal shooting, expecting, as one among many, for the incident to result in stricter gun regulations; but I felt astonished and distressed to find that the news stories merely reported the tragedy that took the lives of the innocent, fading from the headlines without any worthwhile preventative actions. I had thought that with the vicious occurrences of violence,…

and no matter the weapon, the Constitution allows any type of “arm”. If you think about it, gun violence has decreased because back in the day, having a gun made you popular but now other things can make you popular. For example, making up a simple dance that’s different from other ones can make you popular, or just by the way you dress can make you highly famous. Jacob Davidson states, “...we’ve have had a remarkable decrease in violent and gun crime in the U.S. since the early 1900s.”…

Every nation has a range of obstacles that they must face, and naturally each nation has a different priority. Some nation’s must deal with immigration, health care, and terrorism or violence. For the United States of America some topics are immigration, the current presidential election, school shooting’s, and gun control just to name a few. One big political issue is gun control, the aspect of establishing more rules, trying to minimize the quantity of gun usage, and establishing gun safety.…

The peaceful opposition to law is positive on free society because it demonstrates that one can stand up for what one believes it's right. Everyone has different opinions and of course not every person has to agree with what the laws demand. For example Muhammad Ali stood up against not going to war even though it was mandatory for him to serve his country. Even with that he had his own opinion on killing “innocent brown people who’s never bothered us” (Mullen). Ali knew he was going to face…

couldn’t because they thing protecting yourself is bad. And they would use gun to protect them self. Gun may be bad but it also good because of protecting yourself. And If you don’t have a gun you still could protect yourself but you would use another weapon like knife and other and they still would die it still the same gun. However, other Americans said we shouldn’t because it is not safe for the kid. And you don’t need a gun like ak-47 like those kind of gun to hunt or to protect yourself.…

playing with the gun, in a real life scenario where they are fighting in a battle, implies that boys are supposed to grow up and get jobs where they will be using weapons and fighting such as joining the army or going into a law enforcement career. Since the commercial was made in 1964, a time during the Vietnam war, advertising weapons to young boys could be seen as a way the media is trying to influence children to grow up and live their life in a certain way, in this case boys growing up and…

After reading the two articles about gun control, my stance on the issue has been greatly influenced. Before reading the articles, I thought that guns should have stricter laws just because they were dangerous, but after reading them, I’ve realized that there are many more reasons that the US should adopt stricter gun control regulations. The leading reason why I think this is because gun regulations will likely reduce high crime rates, like they did in European countries and Australia after…

Of the above mentioned arguments, I find the law breaker paradox the strongest argument to diffuse the impulsion that gun control laws are futile. When you hear, “only law abiding citizens follow the law”, your initial response is to agree with that statement, but it isn’t until you reflect on this statement that you come to realize that this argument is barren of reason and offers nothing in regards to the strategy to decrease the number of deaths due to firearm use. If we have this mentality…

School shootings can happen anytime, and at any school. How many more innocent children have to be killed by armed gunman for our to carry concealed weapons? Calling 911 is no longer a solution. Waiting for the police to arrive is time for you to die, become injured, or fight back. Many schools do not have the necessary security, have violent students, and an intruder could attack at any time. The Arkansas Christian Academy has recently let faculty members carry firearms. We can’t stand by and…
