Help! Help! …. as people in a burning building, cry out in horror……. a hero emerges from the thick smoke of the burning building. I think a hero is someone who doesn’t hesitate when someone cries out for help, they don’t think about the things that will affect his self if he helps this person. A hero always has 3 characteristics that describe them. I think that a hero is brave, strong, and the most important unselfish.
A hero is brave, because if there wasn’t any “brave” hero’s, no hero’s would be brave enough to go out to inspire others to do great things. I think that a great example of a brave “hero” in the real world is a firefighter, because they always go into a fire not knowing if they’re going to get hurt trying to save others or others houses/apartments. I think that firefighters are important because if there were no firefighters then who would put fire’s out or save people from burning buildings? I think that police officers is a great example of real world hero, because when they get a 9-1-1 call they know that there’s risks of responding to a 9-1-1 call and they take those risks to save others. I think that police officers are important because America wouldn’t have any laws to enforce if there were no laws.
I think that a strong hero is someone who faces their fears to save lives of other people. Like from Superman Returns (the movie) superman redirects a giant asteroid made of kryptonite (the thing that can kill superman) to save the people. This is important because if he gave up then trillions of people would die along with the earth. A navy seal because they have to have a lot of confidence because they have to overcome extreme heat and extreme cold to survive and if they not strong then they will die. I think that they are important because without navy seals how would they take down the biggest threats to the U.S.A? I think that astronauts are mentally strong because that they are trying to find planets with other life so that when the earth finally does end us humans can live somewhere else without imploding. I think that astronauts are mentally strong because they can’t have claustrophobia otherwise they will want to
February 21, 2013 Dr. Long Eng 111 Gun Control America is known as the land of freedom. However, in present times some citizens feel that the new firearm legislation proposed by the President and his subordinates is stripping that very freedom from them. On the other hand there are many citizens that feel the new legislation will give citizens comfort and peace of mind. In January 2013, President Barack Obama announced that there should be new gun laws in regards mainly to the horrific…
Richard Truong Kolstad English 1B May 11, 2013 Gun Control Out of all modern states, the U.S. has the longest democratic tradition. Most democratic norms, freedoms and rules of functioning of political institutions have been enshrined by the U.S. Constitution, adopted in 1787. However, this continuity has not only positive consequences: the creators of the Constitution could not have foreseen how the situation in the domestic and foreign policy would change within centuries, that is why many provisions…
Gun Control Gun control is a pretty controversial issue. There are groups on both sides arguing why we should or should not have rules when it comes to gun regulation. When asked about it, most people who own a gun have it to protect themselves (67%), the next most popular reason is for target shooting (66%), and the last is for hunting (41%). Gun control is a controversial issue because there have been Increased…
Katie Zurita Solis CRWT 101 Professor Baxter Research Paper 18 December 2014 Gun Control The United States of America has laws in place for ownership and control of weapons such as guns. The Constitutions under The Second Amendment gives U.S citizens the right to own and bear arms. Unfortunately, throughout the past decade the United States has seen events in where its citizens have abused their right to bear arms. Ownerships of weapons in America resulted in massive shootings in schools and malls…
Mr. Chadwick Government Honors28 March 2014 Gun Control Many people have issues with the federal government deciding if there should be gun control. Some want to completely ban all civilian ownership of firearms and some want to make it harder for people to get guns. Whether they believe guns are good for America or dangerous for America that is still being argued. There are many out there that are against having gun control because they feel their Second Amendment rights are being violated. These…
The Pros of Gun Control Over the past decade gun control in America has become quite the topic in most households. “In 2011, over 400,000 people were victims of crimes that involved firearms in the United States”(National Institute of Justice).You would think that most people would support regulations or state mandates that would bring more order to gun control, but our society shows mixed reviews on how to approach the issue. Our country has bred a culture of people who believe that guns are essential…

Gun Control - Page One Crime and guns. The two seem to be cohesive with each other, but are they really associated with one another? Do guns lead to crimes? Do laws placing restrictions on firearm ownership really protect citizens or do they promote opportunities for criminals to take advantage of? Gun violence is a regularly debated political issue in the United States, considering that 30,000 people die from a gunshot each year. Gun-related violence is most common in poor urban areas and…
Gun Control Charlotte Bacon, Daniel Barden and Olivia Engel are only three of the twenty children killed in the horrific Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting (JD Journal 1). These innocent little children had their lives ripped away from them at the ages of six and seven by a mentally unstable man. They had no say, no input on whether they could live or die. It seems as though every week a new tragedy that no one was expecting; not the family of the shooter or the family of the shot, arises.…
people who have gun-disqualifying mental health histories have been reported to the National Instant Check System, where they could be discovered in a routine background check of a prospective gun purchaser. A felony conviction is also supposed to disqualify people from buying a gun, but only 40% of murder suspects have such a previous record of conviction. The present national moment of grief and soul searching should not become another occasion for oversimplifying the problem of gun violence and…
