Gun safety

I play on nightmare. I've a level 30 captain fighting level 22 aliens. Shredding fire with max strength and gunnery can miss on a unlucky roll, and hunters have 162 hp so it's not easy to get a one shot kill without critical. Plasma rifle isn't useless, but it's a little too risky to equip in my game. I normally max out useful talents as much I can. Most favorite talents are listed first to least favorite talent last on the list. Right now, I'm in the mood to rush maps for XP so low heat…

Summary of Zenobia Harris’s Argument Zenobia Harris argues in an article in the VSU student newspaper The Spectator titled, “Guns on Campus Will Hurt Not Help,” that students and faculty carrying guns on campus will do more harm than good. She presents a selected study from The RAND Corporation as well as citing a CNN article, balanced with a counterpoint to show that the cons outweigh the pros when it comes to high stress situations involving firearms.

At the age of 12, I was introduced to the sport of archery through my middle school. I was fortunate enough to shoot in tournaments around the country for four years, not only winning in my state of Texas but other states too. Shooting for my school drove me towards the sport of Bowhunting, and by doing this I found my passion. Through my passion for archery and bowhunting, I would make a business where I could design and manufacture compound bows for both tournament use and hunting. I believe…

States have started legalizing guns but, is it worth it? The literal definition of gun is, “a weapon incorporating a metal tube from which bullets, shells, or other missiles are propelled by explosive force, typically making a characteristic loud, sharp noise”. The accurate definition of weapon is “A thing designed or used for inflicting bodily harm or physical damage”. Do we really need something that inflicts bodily harm to each other? Though, guns have saved many people if you compare it to…

the United States range from finding ways to reduce gun control, becoming more strict on alcohol consumption, and creating at on drug operations. According to our textbook, “firearms injuries are the second leading cause of death for ages 10 and 24 and the third leading cause of death for 25 and 34 year olds” (Alvarez & Bachman, 145). As a result, violent crimes with firearms (handguns) have only increased. The only way to fight of the lack of gun control laws would be to take into…

Gun violence in America Gun violence is an all-time high. In the wake of Sandy Hook, widespread concern forced legislators to take a second glance at our gun laws. When twenty children and six educators were gunned down, many citizens were stunned, outraged, and begged authorities to pass more crucial gun laws because with fewer guns, there could possibly be fewer incidents involving gun violence. Many people believe that the widespread availability of guns is making society unsafe. Each year,…

Now that we are all here in college I find it highly appropriate to speak on the subject of campus violence. You hear about so many different events happening around the country on college campuses, but you may not stop to think about it hard enough to realize that it happens so frequently that it is a major issue. College students should be the first people to be informed about this problem because in the long run can affect all of us. When we first think of campus violence the first thing…
