  • Taya Kyle's Article 'American Sniper' Widow: Gun Control Analysis

    1403 Words  | 3 Pages

    The Second Amendment of the Bill of Rights granted U.S. citizens the right to bear arms. This amendment was passed by Congress on September 25, 1789. It’s original intent was so civilians could use their household weapons for military duty or for their own defense. Much has changed since 1789. Would our founding fathers enact this amendment if citizens had the guns we have today? Would they consider such an amendment if citizens were killing each other on the street, in schools and other public places? There is strong interest on the issue of gun control. Taya Kyle states her views on the subject in her article 'American Sniper ' Widow: Gun Control Won 't Protect Us. My beliefs on the subject clash greatly with hers because I regard gun control as necessary to preserve our safety.

    Kino, Juana, and Coyotito were hiding in the mountain because the trackers had stopped to rest by the water. The tracker with the rifle was awake while his two friends were sleeping beside him. Kino decided that the only way they could escape, would be to kill the tracker with the rifle and kill the other two. “ ‘There is a way,’ he said. ‘But they will kill you.’ ‘If I get the one with the rifle,’ Kino said, ‘I must get him first, then I will be all right. Two are sleeping.’ ” (Steinbeck 83) In this quote, Kino is telling Juana there is a way to escape safely. Juana replies saying the trackers will kill Kino. Kino said that he would get the one with the gun first and then kill the other two that are sleeping. After this, Kino started moving down the mountain slowly. He did not want the trackers to hear him. Then ,all of a sudden, a cry was heard from the mountain. The trackers thought it was a coyote. So the tracker with the gun, shot in the direction of the sound. Kino was in mid-dive as the tracker shot the gun. Kino saw the barrel light up. He stabbed the man in the neck and down to his chest. He took the rifle and swung at the second tracker. The third tracker tried to run away but Kino shot him too. “It bit through neck and deep into the chest, and Kino was a terrible machine now. He grasped the rifle even as he wrenched free his knife… He whirled and struck the head of the seated man like a melon. The third man scrabbled away like a crab… and then he raised the gun and aimed deliberately and fired.” (Steinbeck 86-87) In this quote, Kino is stabbing the tracker with the gun in his neck and deep down into his chest. It says Kino is a machine meaning that he is capable of killing all these men. He then grasped the rifle while he got his knife back. He swung at the man sitting with the rifle. The third man tried running away but Kino shot him. This shows that
