Catching Fire: How Coooking Made us Human by Richard Wrangham is a fresh perspective on the evolution of humankind. Wrangham has made a concentrated effort to prove that humans have evolved particular adaptations, like bipedalism, due to the introduction of cooked foods into their diet. In his book, he is legitimately arguing that humans are the way they are because early on in human evolution, early man discovered fire, discovered the joys of cooked foods, and developed all sorts of fascinating traits still being utilized today.

Although many people have passed the background check and have and so completely the safety test, many people are able to hide the true intentions of wanting a firearm. Hunting and safety can be the main ideas for purchasing firearms, but people can buy firearms to just shoot random targets at an outside site which may be very dangerous if one does not know what may be beyond the target point. In a handbook called “Firearm Safety Certificate” by the Bureau of Firearms, it is quoted, “Be aware that if the bullet misses or completely passes through the target, it could strike a person or object.” When one is in doubt, one is not to shoot and is to observe and consider what may happen. Not only can they shoot out just for fun, but for celebration as well. On a website called “Nola” it is stated, “In Kenner on New Year 's Day, a man who apparently fired his gun in celebration, fired a shot that bounced off a metal pole and struck struck a woman in the stomach.” Many people in the past have been hurt by stray bullets which have been fired upon celebration or for fun, but as time progressed, people were forced more to obey the laws with new technology that is able to enforce safety precautions. With many accidental shootings that wounded and has killed people, rules have become stricter and laws as in “S. 150” which may be referred as “Assault Weapons Ban of 2013” have been passed to ban certain guns on the market and lower the availability of modifications on
In response to specific questions about suicide, pro-gun advocates argued that attentive parenting, not restricted access to guns, is the appropriate response. Accidental shootings, which constitute the third category of youth gun deaths, are the one type of child gun violence that pro-gun advocates uniformly say relates to access. Although these advocates generally believe that the number of accidental deaths is too small to warrant substantial attention, they do support targeted educational programs aimed at reducing this category of deaths. (Public
Another aspect of this debate is in fact, the lobbyists that are pushing for more lenient or tighter gun-laws. It seems that the lobbyists that wanted stricter firearm-related laws are the ones who have witnessed the damage that criminals and the mentally unstable can really do with a gun in their hand. Those pushing for leniency when it comes to gun legislature state that firearms are trying to protect their right to carry an essential tool for those who want to venture the countryside in search for animals to shoot down for food, clothing or sport. The last aspects of the controversy are the federal and state laws that have decided whether or not concealed wea...
Assault weapons have been labeled as the number one source for mass killings in America. The idea that a weapon can fire a large amount of bullets at a remarkable speed can be used for recreational use was thought of otherwise. This type of weaponry was made for one reason and that is to eliminate as many people as possible and accomplish it in a reasonably fast time. The problem is everywhere and to help control the issue the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence is the nation’s largest organization dedicated to enacting and enforcing gun...

It’s a brisk November morning like any other day, but today isn’t any other day, today is the first day of firearm deer season. Shots are going off everywhere like world war three declared on deer. I’m wrapped in every hunting garment I own but winters cold embrace always finds its way in. My cheeks are rosy red and my breath was thick in the air. As I raise my shotgun and pull the trigger, my heart races and my hands shake. As I race after my prize, the sounds of leaves crunching beneath my feet are muffled by the ringing in my ears. I’m walking face to the ground like a hound on a trail and then my eyes caught it, my very first whitetail. I will never forget my first deer and the joy I felt sharing it with my family. Hunting is a passed down tradition for my family and friends. Throughout the world, millions of people participate in the spoils and adventure of the hunt. Hunting has been a pastime since the beginning of man. Hunting is one of those things either you like or you don’t like.
