Gun Rights Advertisement Analysis

It decieves the perception of viewers by portraying mass murders as a small issue that makes headlines frequently but cannot be solved. As for viewers, they must develop a bigger perspective and should not allow a few anchors to stop us from ending violence because they say our society is headed for self-inflicted extinction. Although, the article is conducted very bluntly, sucessfully plays with the right emotions of a reader and combined mixtures of facts and opinion to convince his idea, this article contain biases. For example Adam used several reports and facts about gun control laws in several countries, then gave his opinions on those laws.

Vowell’s use of many different techniques helps the story come to life, explaining her life with guns around and how someone gets weak when someone has a gun around.

"Battleground America," written by Jill Lepore, provides a strong history of guns and the way they have changed in the eyes of the American through the years. She proves her point with strong evidence throughout her article, sprinkling it with opinion and argument that is strongly supported. She presents her argument to convince her audience that the open availability of guns allows citizens to undeservingly purchase them by displaying the credibility in her sources, using negative connotations in her speech, and the strength and objectivity only a strong logos appeal can provide.

When looking at all of the important issues of today’s society, one of the most neglected issues revolves around guns. Guns serve two different purposes: to defend and to kill. Even though I’ve been on this Earth for only 21 years, I’ve become keen and have taken an interest in the study of guns and how they pose more problems in society than any other issue. My interest all started around the time of the Columbine shooting in Colorado and how society has taken steps since that point in history. Going back to the two different purposes, both have been used to help explain the differences in the distinctions of different gun related events that continue to occur, such as mass shootings. Problem analysis, as stated, will help to explain how

The relevance of gun violence has been on the rise today and often one cannot walk away from the news without hearing a story related to gun violence either being covered or displayed on the news ticker scrolling through the screen.

In today's world, for most people, it is hard to feel safe walking down the street. Linda Hasselstrom, in an excerpt from her essay Land Circle, explains her reasons and thinking behind becoming a licensed gun holder and why she feels that this is necessary. With Hasselstroms strong personal connection to this topic, she achieves powerful ethos within her storytelling, and combines it with effective emotional word choice to create a strong argument on why she needs a gun to feel safe in today's society.

I noticed the writer focused on every aspect in the ad and so I decided to focus on every detail such as the palm trees, clothing, telescope, boats, shack, glasses, facial expressions and features and etc.. I explained how every detail relates to its argument in which at the time Japanese Americans could not be trusted. Geisel’s message was towards distrust of the Japanese Americans. For example you can see Japanese Americans lined up along the coast waiting for a TNT box. I also used 10 sources because I learned for every page you write you should have 2 sources.

Assault weapons have proven to be fatal for children as demonstrated during the Sandy Hook Shootings. The Sandy Hook Shooting is what ignited the construction of the ads. The tragedy that the shootings caused, demonstrate just how lethal assault weapons are for children. Moreover, the official name of the organization Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America is listed on the advertisement is a sign of credibility. The mention of the group indicates that the campaign is indeed a reliable organization. An active website is also dedicated to the campaign that informs the audience more about the organizations progress and aims. Moms Demand action demonstrate ethos effectively by providing its audience with tangible scenarios on the dangers of Assault

A rhetorical aim that illustrates that issues on gun control would be to analyze and interpret. Suggested from the two articles; “Why the U.S. is No. 1 – in mass shootings”, and Not just guns: New study looks at why the U.S. is No. 1 in mass shootings, most mass shootings are a result of the deteriorating American Dream. The rhetorical aim, analyze and interpret”, offer readers a different approach on a specific subject matter. For instance, prior to reading the two texts on America’s advancing gun control issues, it was believed that mental illness would be the root cause for mass shootings. However, these two articles have offered different insight on why America is the leading country of mass shootings. Fame, can persuade Americans into

After investing much effort into understanding the thought process of those who support gun control, a pro-gun-control op-ed was stumbled upon that seemed to embody all of the talking points and emotions of those on the opposing side. There it was summed up in a single picture and a short but succinct headline. It was a gut wrenching black and white photo of six handsome young men in crisp, dark suits and tearful eyes supporting the weight of a cumbersome coffin that no doubt held still precious cargo that will live on only in their hearts. Above it the caption read “This Is Why We Need Gun Control”. The issue of gun control continually elicits impassioned responses from both sides of the argument. The list of reasons gun control proponents supply include: More guns equal more suicide, More guns equal more homicide, Massacres and mass murders are

Michael Moore’s flawed 2002 expository documentary Bowling for Columbine is ineffective in its goals to open Americas eyes to its very serious gun violence problem. Michael Moore sets out to uncover why the United States can’t seem to end its devastating and reoccurring mass shootings, by using deception as its primary tool of persuasion and effect, Moore attempts to vilify pro-gun activists. The humorous documentary frequently highpoints controversial decisions and actions made by the then President of the National Rifle Association Charlton Heston. Bowling also raises issues such as the ease of buying pointless high powered assault weapons just about anywhere, and American media’s film first ask later attitude towards gun crimes and social and racial issues. Americans are left even more paranoid and hostile than ever before, something the documentary should have set out to end.

1. This is a very controversial topic that discusses the topic to ban or not to ban weapon advertisements. The book states that banning controversial topics may protect youth in particular from messages that may be problematic. Banning ads will also result in products being stigmatized. I personally believe that ads for weapons should be banned but I understand that there are other factors that go into it. These include the First Amendment- freedom of speech. The government allows people to talk about it and since guns are legal, many people believe they should be advertised since it is a personal opinion and this is how many weapon companies make money. I believe that if weapon advertising is not banned then it should at least provide warning
