There are two really strong positions on gun control, pro and con. But views on gun control aren¡¦t that simple, there are many views that branch off of pro or con gun control. There isn¡¦t really one source of controversy, but a large group of them. For example, what about hunters and sport/game…

The reason why World War 1 lasted so long is because, a multifaceted one, with most historians attributing the length of the war to, inter alia, and the similar strength of the two sides. The famous German war plan aimed at avoiding fighting a war at two fronts by attacking France from the north, encircling Paris, quickly defeating the French, and then moving towards the eastern front to face the Russians who would not have been able to mobilize in time to help their ally.

The man was an Indian Dravidian coolie, and he had not been dead for long (Orwell). The elephant had stampeded him and grounded him into the mud (Orwell). This was some sort of turning point for the narrator, as he sent someone to get an elephant rifle…

some states, but not very many. Federal law also blocks the sale of guns to people found guilty of unlawful possession of firearms within the past year (Phillips). The purchase of semi-automatic weapons is legal in most U.S. states, as are automatic rifles made before 1986.

They expect people to do better with me, but trust…

It let out a shrill and eerie screech, much like that of a T-rex you see in the movies but much heavier and booming. The…
