Point blank, and the gun is fired. Aimed at the other person, whose hands shake with rage, or is it fear? Ambulances and hospital doctors go sporadic, only mere moments to save a person’s life. A school shooter takes the life of multiple students and then attempts his own. All of this could have been solved if someone was there to prevent the shooter. although in a moments heat there is not going to be officers, sometimes a vigilantly must help others. Someone that could save a life are those…

The experiment began with three participants: • The “Proctor” (Milgram’s helper who controlled the experiment) • The “Learner” (The accomplice to the experiment who acted as though he was being shocked upon giving an incorrect answer) • The “Teacher” (This was the unknowing true subject of the experiment.

important and true information was missing due to the fact that certain parts of the war and America’s actions make America look in the wrong. An example of this is said by Loewen when he writes the quotation by John Kerry speaking of the My Lai massacre during Vietnam, saying “how American troops ‘had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads... cut off limbs ..randomly shot civilians(pg. 250)”. These acts had occurred during the Vietnam war and when the war was talked about in later years…
