This person will never learn to be like the rest of us. He has no conscience, he only looks out for himself and is wholly incapable of feeling empathy. It is a sad tale. People like him exist and there is no treatment for it. Most people cannot protect themselves from people like Danny because so few people are like Danny. Conscience is so inherent, so automatic that even when we try to put ourselves first in life we will often look back. We can connect the dots to understand the world around us…
Confiscation Of The Gun Legislation In this country we are at the point of Gun control legislation, that the government is trying to save lives, but also putting the lives of citizens at risk by making it even more ridiculous on obtaining a gun legally, and in turn making the law abiding citizen turn down the route that the criminal would to obtain their guns.

enforcement departments across this country are given guns because they have been sworn to protect innocent citizens and only use the guns as a means of self-defense.

Although there are many debates over if the gun is at fault or the person possessing it is, they are still among the top causes of deaths (Fischetti, Mark). Not only that, but the thought of promoting such weapon among the people alone is dangerous. Especially to students in Universities.
