Its name is obesity, and it has taken America by storm. Despite rising obesity…

Russ Shafer-Landau provides us with an article by Jeff McMahan in order to give us an analytical argument on gun control. Jeff McMahan, in his article Why Gun Control Isn’t Enough, discusses why he believes guns should not simply be controlled in the United States, rather they should be banned.

Twenty years ago it would nearly be impossible if a parent tried to get their child to come inside after a long day of running around and playing in the sun. Little boys would be mad at their mom or dad for breaking up their intense game of football and the girls wouldn’t want to go inside until they finished their adventures at the park; that’s not really the case today. Instead, more kids would complain about having to go outside because that would mean time spent away from their phones and…
