The novel Motorcycles and Sweet Grass by Drew Hayden Taylor, is an award winning native comedy. Taylor includes many themes and symbols that enhance and accompany those themes. There are many different themes and symbols that Taylor has incorporated into his novel. Some include crows, raccoons, sweetgrass and John’s motorcycle. In the novel, symbols are a big part of story line development and help enhance themes. The symbols that I will use are the raccoons, the crow and John’s last names. These symbols relate to and enhance primarily mythology.

First off guns have many uses that do not involve killing. Guns are generally used for sport, hunting and self-defense while cars are mainly used for transportation. Deaths caused by guns seem senseless and avoidable while deaths caused by vehicles are mostly accidental in nature and unavoidable. The data does show that cars kill more people than guns do, but many more people drive and own cars than people use and own guns. The data shows that from 1999-2014 the trend for vehicle deaths has fallen due to improved safety features in cars and the trend for gun deaths has steadily risen greatly closing the gap between vehicle and gun deaths (Gun Deaths Compared to Motor Vehicle Deaths). To compare deaths by vehicle and deaths by guns just doesn’t make sense to me, but to compare the way vehicles are tracked and monitored and then implementing those same regulations to the control of guns does make sense. There are too many innocent lives that are lost by the use and ownership of

Drew Hayden Taylor’s Motorcycles and Sweetgrass is praised as the funniest piece of Native Literature in Canada, a stark comparison to many of the other pieces of Native literature which are often dark and filled with sadness. However, Taylor’s Motorcycles and Sweetgrass cannot be considered dark or filled with sadness as it follows the arrival of the Native trickster Nanabush to the Reserve of Otter Lake bringing with him a fresh new take on Native life in Canada through a light, almost comedic lens. It isn’t all jokes and humour, though. As the novel follows John/Nanabush and his mission to bring back Native culture in the sleepy reserve of Otter Lake. This can be seen by the change in Virgil and his new excitement in school. The passion

In “The Mower Against Gardens,” Andrew Marvell uses a conceit to liken the plants in an English garden to the women of a brothel, exemplifying the theme of man’s perversion of nature. Three main metaphors are used, the first being mankind as the brothel owner. The second metaphor is the flowers as prostitutes, and the final metaphor is the flowers’ offspring as abandoned children.

When comes to the second question’s answer; the citizens of the United States take power from the Second Amendment of the Constitution to get a gun. Second Amendment of the United States that was adopted in 1791 emphasizes, “Every individual was granted the right of gun ownership and bearing gun” (Diaz, 54). For those citizens who want to buy a gun can put their constitutional rights forward so that all barriers can easily be eliminated in front of owning a gun. People may want to have a gun due to some security concerns, but when a gun falls into wrong people’s hand, it causes unpleasant situations that were proven by some incidents and statistics. According to a survey, which was carried out by the US Centers of Disease Control (CDC), in the United States 32,251 people died in 2011 because of the firearms. 55 percent of these deaths were cause of suicide, 41 percent was homicide, 2 percent was unintentional deaths, 1 percent of deaths were cause of legal intervention, and the other 1 percent was undetermined deaths (Webmester, 19). When looking at the car accident related death data in 2012, which is released by the United States National Highway Traffic Safety administration, 33,561 people in the United States died as a result of car accidents (Webmester, 19). According to the CDC report, the firearms related deaths are expected to surpass the car crash – related deaths by the end of 2015, because the current data trend displays that car crash – related deaths are

The problem with guns is fairly obvious: they decrease the difficulty of killing or injuring a person. In Jeffrey A. Roth's Firearms and Violence (NIJ Research in Brief, February 1994), he points out the obvious dangers. About 60 percent of all murder victims in the United States in 1989 (about 12,000 people) were killed with firearms. Firearm attacks injured another 70,000 victims, some of whom were left permanently disabled. In 1985, the cost of shootings was an estimated $14 billion nationwide for medical care, long-term disability, and premature death. In robberies and assaults, victims are far more likely to die when the perpetrator is armed with a gun than when he or she has another weapon or is unarmed.

The research, graphs and expert’s opinions on what is happening with guns and deaths by guns is shocking, but how long are we going to blame an inanimate object for the death of the innocent? Guns are about as dangerous as your car. Treated with respect and consideration no harm of people should result from these objects. So the problem isn’t guns at all. The problem is how we as people see, relate, use and react to guns. It’s not the guns fault that 8,000 plus people died in the USA in 2012 or 13 innocent children died at Columbine High School. The guilt of the lives lost by guns should fall on societies shoulders and how easy we have access to guns, accept them in our lives and treat

In the short story “The Thrill of the Grass,” I was able to visualize many parts of the story due to the author’s eloquent description. The part that I was able to visualize the best was on the third page of the story. According to the text, the author states, “I enjoy arriving an hour early, parking in a far corner of the lot, walking slowly toward the stadium, rays of sun dropping softly over my shoulders like tangerine ropes, my shadow gliding with me, black as an umbrella. I like to watch young families beside their campers, the mothers in shorts, grilling hamburgers, their men drinking beer.

Also another strong opinion people have is that we should not have stricter gun laws. Some people found that 37,000 people die a year in a car crash and only 12,000 people die with a gun. 12,000 people died from guns a year which is still a big number but not as big as 37,000 people dead from car crashes that number is more than double the amout died from guns but you never hear anything about banning guns. Also a lot of people say that all of these mass shootings are done

ns. This proves guns aren’t always used for crime. Since car accidents kill more people every year than guns, why don’t we band cars too? Basically that’s what gun control is saying. The point that I’m trying to make is gun control is not preventing anything. You can get hurt crossing the street or doing

Guns. Just a word, just one little four letter word that can ignite such passion, fury, and heated debate. With the killing spree that occurred in Vegas, increased gun control is once again being thrust to the forefront as an answer to preventing future tragedy. Is that an effective answer? If we take away certain guns, ammo, clips, or stocks are we solving the problem or ignoring a larger one? Guns do not kill people, people kill people. To believe that the continued legislation of firearms will create a safer and less deadly society is uneducated and over simplistic. While there is value and common sense in removing the ability of a citizen to create or modify a gun to produce what some consider an automatic weapon, there is no concrete evidence that any one added measure will ensure societies safety.

Throughout time, firearms have caused destruction and devastation, not only to architecture, but to families and wildlife; However, a firearm is incapable of doing so. Humans have a substantial amount of blame. For many years, guns have been used in war as an instrument to murder their enemies. Using a firearm is much more efficient than using a blade or a bow, but a firearm should not be the blame for a human action.

My adversary may argue, “more guns, more gun deaths,” however, additional guns actually assist us. Additional guns save lives, and fewer guns are worse. “In the chart below you’ll find the number of background checks performed by the FBI for gun sales, and the number of violent crimes committed in the U.S. from 1999 to 2014. As you can see, as numbers of implied gun purchases have exploded, the number of violent crimes has cratered,” this directly counters the idea that guns cause crime. Something else my opponents may argue is, “Gun proponents do not claim they need guns for self-defense but for defending the nation,” guns are actually used for both self-defense and to defend the nation. Moreover, owning a gun will not guarantee that someone
