It was now 7:30 when we heard a goobel for the first time . And it was not that far away we thought but we did not see him so we sat there quiet as a mouse . And it was getting closer and me and my dad got my gun up. And then his buddy came out and I said “he is huge so can I shoot him”. And then his buddy came came and he was bigger “Can i shoot him” I said “If you want to, take him now” So I pulled the trigger and my gun went boom. And my ears were starting to ring. all I saw was a cloud of smoke. As I was leaning forward for the kick of

  • Personal Narrative: Trap Shootings

    968 Words  | 2 Pages

    Trap shooting is a major part of my life. Ever since I started shooting last summer, I have spent much of my time practicing. It can be both incredibly fun and incredibly frustrating. While it has only been two years, I have improved a ton. Mostly thanks to my two coaches, who devote much of their time and resources to helping my teammates and I. As far as coaches go, I couldn’t ask for better. Over the years they have created many great shooters, including two of the best shooters in the United States, whom we regularly see out at the range. This is even more impressive knowing that it is not a very easy sport to coach.

  • How Gun Owners Are Portrayed In Our Society

    1672 Words  | 4 Pages

    Our society forms their own beliefs on groups of people based on what only a small percentage of that certain group is like. They rarely ever look past the popular stereotypes. Our society judges anything based on what their first experiences were like. If a person were to be bitten by a dog they may feel uneasy around dogs for the simple reason that they fear what they have experienced and do not want to repeat their experience. Unfortunately this is the case with gun owners and they need to be better understood.

    The first thing my group did was confirm our method of taking data and who would be doing it as well as defining out independent and dependent variables. Since we would be directly controlling the net force we made that our independent variable which left the acceleration as our dependent variable because it was a factor that varying as a result of our net force. We weighed our cart with every single mass in it along with the string and the hook which turned out to be 1.97kg. We did not add anything else to our system after this to keep the mass of the whole system constant.  Our setup was like this: a ramp was sitting on top of the table, parallel to it so it had no slant. On one end of the ramp, a pulley was attached. On the other side of the ramp, a motion sensor was set up so it faced directly down the path of the

  • A Personal Statement On Gun Control

    2501 Words  | 6 Pages

    As both of us plateaued in our physical development, our training routine morphed away from a singular focus on building raw strength and agility. Although the physical workouts continued, our emphasis turned toward sharpening weapons skills. Weapons are my forte. I love the utility of a sabre, I 'm fair with archery, I thought, and as for guns, let 's just say I 'm in favor of them. Guns are equalizers. Gun Control means having one in your hand when needed and hitting the intended target if necessary.

  • Informative Essay: The Debate over Gun Control

    2111 Words  | 5 Pages

    Crime and guns. The two seem to go hand in hand with one another. But are the two really associated? Do guns necessarily lead to crime? And if so do laws placing restrictions on firearm ownership and use stop the crime or protect the citizens? These are the questions many citizens and lawmakers are asking themselves when setting about to create gun control laws. The debate over gun control, however, is nothing new. In 1924, Presidential Candidate, Robert La Follete said, “our choice is not merely to support or oppose gun control but to decide who can own which guns under what conditions.” Clearly this debate still goes on today and is the very reason for the formation of gun control laws.

  • Guns On School Campus Essay

    1546 Words  | 4 Pages

    Due to the recent disruption of violent crimes on campus, many citizens that are pro-gun activist have suggested that both the students and teachers should be allowed to carry concealed weapons on school campuses. Those who are with guns allowed on school campuses claim that their rights have been violated for the reason that many college campuses refuse to allow weapons of any kind on their property. The Constitution of The United States of America already grants citizens the right to carry guns with them. It is not appropriate for guns to be in a vulnerable area such as a college campus or any University. There are already too many guns available to the public or easy to get any kind of gun, and allowing them on

  • Rhetorical Analysis Of Gun Violence

    967 Words  | 2 Pages

    Gun violence is a serious issue in today’s world that is continuing to grow more dangerous. Everyone perceives the issue differently but President Barrack Obama has an exceptional view in which he exemplifies the importance of keeping our nation’s people safe. President Obama speaks to the entire nation in his “Remarks on common-sense gun safety reform” providing thought provoking concepts involving gun violence. Throughout Obama’s speech, he states how he believes in the Second Amendment but contrastingly believes the accessibility of guns needs to be more selective, in order to prevent guns from getting into the wrong hands. Obama conveys this message by using a variety of rhetorical elements, most noticeably logos, pathos, and repetition. In President Obama’s

    Something happened my sophomore year of high school that little did I know would change my perspective, not only of myself, but life in general. I was looking for something new and exciting to enhance my high school existence and decided to give the Criminal Justice Club a try. I was familiar with the advisor of the club, but knew that the club had astigmatism for attracting those students who were just looking for something easy to do. I knew about the criminal justice system, but only what they show on Law and Order. However, I immediately fell in love, not only with the club but the entire prospect of Criminal Justice. I stepped into the club as if it were a place I belonged and easily became a leader. I was able to learn things the TV shows

  • Personal Narrative: Concealed Carry

    735 Words  | 2 Pages

    I am also pro-gun, I own three and have a concealed carry permit. I just don't believe that anyone needs an AR15 in Walmart, lol.... It is also who has guns here in Florida. The testing is far too easy for a concealed carry, and the back ground checks to lax. All I want to happen with gun control is tougher background checks and a waiting period. If you do not have a criminal history, that should not bother you. I think what Bethany has tried to convey in her posts, and I as well, is the strong double standard and hypocrisy that exists in the south. Now, I have never lived in the Mid-West or West coast, perhaps it is there too, but it is strong in the South. During my time in South Carolina and now Florida all seems forgiven as long as you got to church on Sunday. You can be a down right cruddy individual all week, and people seem to feel forgiven on Sunday. In upstate NY, where religion is not that influential in

  • The Importance Of Owning A Gun

    1241 Words  | 3 Pages

    Owning a gun is both a fundamental right and a derivative right. The derivative right goes in hand with a fundamental right, the right to protect oneself from harm (Stark, 2001). Therefore, it is a derivative right because it is “derived from the right of self-defense” and self-defense is most important (Huemer, 2003, p. 299). Owning a gun also is a prima facie right, which is a right that must be given moral weight, but can be overridden by important countervailing reasons (Huemer, 2003). The prima facie right is needed because we have the right to gun ownership, but if our intent of owning a gun is to harm our self or others the right may be overridden. Self-defense is a main reason for many gun owners. Placing a ban on gun ownership weighs
