Gun culture

If you get shot, do you blame the gun manufacturer or the person who shot the gun? I would probably blame the shooter, but that does not mean the gun maker should not share some of the blame. Autonomy gives a person the right to choose the device. Getting the device does not guarantee you will have side effects. However, you are implanting a semi-permanent foreign object into your body. It is rare not to get any side effects. Every non-biologic object is likely to cause some type effect because…

United States are killed by guns each year. It seems like such an easy problem to fix, with a simple solution that will change everything. Everyday politicians fight and struggle on this “easy task” trying to create a solution that will end this problem. The main groups that politicians have to appeal to are the people with conservative or liberal beliefs. Every day major media outlets feature headlines about gun violence. A person with a conservative mind may believe that gun violence is not…

I think that the idea of GPS tracking on guns is an interesting option. Ideally, it would help solve the issue of finding weapons that were used in a crimes and killings. It also could tackle the issue regarding those owning weapons illegally. More people would be discouraged from buying weapons that are not tracked and registered if they carried harsh punishments. Crime rate could drop as it becomes harder to get away with it if the weapons are tracked. Potential criminals would struggle more…

crimes and the government believes that in order to reduce the crime rate, guns should be banned. However, this is not the answer because people need guns for self defense, it has been proven that having more guns diminishes the amount of crimes, and that there has been no gun control study that has proven to be effective. For centuries, guns have done more to benefit people than to disservice them. Colonists having access to guns helped them to rise up against the British in America’s fight…

Humans invented guns for other humans of all races and genders to be able to protect themselves. A gun is a firearm which the shooter loads shells, if a shotgun, or cartridges, if a rifle or pistol, into. When one pulls the trigger of a firearm, the hammer is released, hitting the primer on the shell or cartridge. The struck primer creates a micro sized spark, igniting the gunpowder, sending a deadly piece of lead, or other material, flying. Without guns and the proper ammunition to be used,…

known to many people during this time as an inventor. He invented many field artillery used during the Civil War. The cannon had many steps in which to actually fire the cannon. Soldiers would place the gun powder in the back of the barrel, and the cannon ball was placed in front. Afterwards the gun powder would then be lighted causing the cannon ball to projectile…

public health, safety and welfare through strict gun-control ordinances. They are undermining gun-control ordinances since there is a profitable market for illegal firearms in Milwaukee. Firearm manufacturers design and advertise their guns to appeal to the significant market for illegal firearms. This includes those who wish to use them for criminal purposes. Firearm dealers are aware that these multiple purchasers are one way in which guns…

“PCHOOOOO,” the guns shot,”BPHOOOO” I was getting tired of the sound of gun shots. My ears felt like they were going to bleed. I was at a shooting range, getting ready for the war. People were recruiting soldiers to go to the war. There were supposed to be one man from each household to go to the war. Luckily, we had open area to build ranges, or else I wouldn’t even know how to load a gun! I wasn’t alone practicing my shooting. My friends came to the practice two. For fun, we dress up hay bags…

Cultural appropriation has been defined by Susan Scafidi as, “taking intellectual property, traditional knowledge, cultural expressions, or artifacts from someone else's culture without permission. This can include unauthorized use of another culture's dance, dress, music, language, folklore, cuisine, traditional medicine, religious symbols, etc.” In an article written by Brittany Enoghayin, she talks on the recent trend on African print clothing that has become conspicuous in prom attire.…

these divisions discovered with the actions that should occur towards gun control. Some officials suggest that the country bans guns entirely and others believe that the issue should not even reach discussion. Essentially the debate comes down to the issues between gun rights and gun control, a last resort. A complete and total ban on guns will not happen due to the revolt that would ensue. The U.S. has become a gun culture where guns often appear in the news, T.V. shows, video games, and so…
