One of the most well known shootings was on April 20th, 1999. The event was known as Columbine. 13 high school students were killed,…

When did the Brooklyn Nets become a savvy, resourceful franchise? How does a team with little to no assets add draft picks and even a former lottery player? Welcome to the New Nets. The Brooklyn Nets are no longer the laughing stock of NBA front offices (take that Knicks!), after Marks and Co. have made this an organization players actually want to join. On July 13th, the Toronto Raptors officially sent DeMarre Carroll, a 2018 lottery-protected first-round and 2018 second-round to the Brooklyn…

the authorities. To increase this gun culture, gun shows are often organized in the United States. Those are weapons fairs where is presented the entire arsenal on the market. We go as a family; we try guns then go to train with the kids at the shooting range. It is a sociability event like the others. We also find a lot of “guns and weapons” referents in songs (Hip-hop, rock, pop…) written by well-known artists such as Aerosmith (“Janie’s Got a Gun”), AC/DC (“Big Gun”), and even though The…

per 100 people, which equivalates to a little more than 3 million guns in the country. Even though Sweden is a very “gun secure” country where there are a lot of regulations and laws for the Swedish, guns are mostly used for hunting and just shooting at a range. There is almost no need for any sort of AR-15s or specialized conceal carry handguns. Hopefully, choosing this market Handlers will be a profitable family owned business in Sweden. This is why my company, Handlers, will be selling two…

Three problems I found commonly in question were increased physical fighting, bullying, and shootings. Physical fights happen although many of us wish they didn’t. Children and adults all ages play video games. Most of the video games that have a violent rating contain increased physical fighting. Sometimes while interacting with the games and…

In Holmes case, the death penalty was pushed by the prosecutor but was unsuccessful. Holmes was also convicted of attempted murder which usually has a range of five to fifteen years in prison but it can be longer if a firearm was used or if serious injury was inflicted. Shooting people at a movie theater is definitely going to raise the severity of the punishment. Possessing explosives is a crime itself if it is not authorized, and in Holmes case he set the explosives…

spree of 58 people and leaving 851 injured. The article delves into the possible biological and psychological components which could have played a role in his decision-making processes. Given that the article was published less than a week after the shootings, it is plausible that the author did not have the proper diagnostic information to make educated assumptions about Mr. Paddock, which he concedes from the very beginning. David Eagleman is a writer, neuroscientist, and works as an adjunct…
