World War 1 or the Great War was one of the most brutal if not the most war the world has faced so far. It originated in Europe which quickly went global, the war started on the 28th of July 1914 and ended November 11th 1918. The war consisted of many weapons and deadly gases. The weapons include;
For hundreds of years, the United States has debated to what extent the 2nd amendment has really applied to the citizens of the nation. Concealed weapons licenses have almost always been an option for the people to feel safe knowing they are protected, but many think that this is the reason for such crime this world sees, and have tried to take that power from “We the People.” Concealed weapons availability should not be tinkered with, and the 2nd amendment shall stand as it has for the last 224 years.

The weapons used in World War II drastically changed from the weapons used in World War I. Assault rifles changed from bolt action which were used later back in the late 1800’s to semi and fully automatic weapons that were made at the beginning of World War II and to be used throughout the rest of the war. The tanks also were upgraded putting bigger and better lightweight machine guns at the top to keep enemies down while infantry advanced (Crowl and Love 163). The advancement in the aviation department increased heavily, by time the war approached the Pacific, the Americans had several different type of aircrafts for certain duties. They had medium bombers, heavy bombers, fighter bombers, and fighters (Crowl and Love 158).
All around the world, there has been multiple mass shootings with numerous genres of guns, but the most lethal gun we face today is the assault rifle. Firstly, in the last 10 years 14 mass shootings have been pursued with an assault rifle, half of which happened last June (Ingraham). Assault rifles are starting to be acknowledged for their speed and capability to produce a mass body count, so they are becoming a mass shooters’ weapon of choice. In contrast, 42 guns that can hold a high amount of ammo in one magazine were found in 31 mass shootings, 20 assault weapons in 14, and 33 cases had an assault weapon with a high ammo count magazine. 48 weapons of these categories would be illegal if we had a new legislation (Follman, Aronsen, and Lee).
On average a violent crime takes place somewhere in the United States every minute of every day. When an incident such as an active shooter, terrorist attack or riot occurs, we look to law enforcement for help. The 1033 program permits the transfer of unwanted military-grade equipment from the Department of Defense to federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies to increase their efficacy when responding to these emergencies. Recently, however, a movement to demilitarize law enforcement in America started drawing national attention after police officers demonstrated their use of such equipment during the Ferguson, Missouri riot on August 9, 2014. Since then, President Obama has shown interest in eliminating the 1033 program with bill H.R. 1232, however little empirical research has been conducted on the suitability of military-grade weapons and equipment in law enforcement as well as the possible impact bill H.R. 1232 might have on local police agencies across the state of Michigan.
This article talks about the ten most deadly weapons used during WWI. These ten weapons were all new in this war and have never been used prior to WWI. It does not just focus on the weaponry but also the new technology like aircrafts, U-boats, and Tanks. These new instruments for destruction had all made their introduction in the First World War, prior to this they mainly used horse on the war field which compared to a tank is not really a treat. It also speaks on the machine gun which was a major key on a battlefield. This gun allowed you to mow down troops at an alarming rate while reloading it. It was also much effected.

The second amendment gives the citizens in our country a right to bear arms for purposes of protecting our homes and families, unintended circumstances come to reality without proper gun regulations. SMG’s, Sub Auto Rifles, … ( Other automated Guns and Rifles ) are completely unnecessary for civilian usage… I can understand that some people have automated guns for the protection of their homes, but in contrast when a child of young age goes to school with his dad's automated handgun and accidentally kills a few students or teachers, the issue becomes more serious. Especially with statistics showing that 42% of all households own a firearm as of 2005 with the percentage increasing.
New technology has improved and diminished the world on a global scale. The development of biased inventions has caused many controversial opinions over the course of the century. Numerous ideas and readings influence the making of these products. Non-lethal weapons can have a harmful or beneficial impact on society's mental and physical health much like the technology in ¨The Veldt¨.
In a war of mass destruction and huge weaponry, development of the next big offensive device was on the minds of all the leaders involved. Many of these weapons were designed in secret laboratories under the top scientists and physicists in the world. High emphasis and funding put into these designs, the developments flourished. Some of these weapons were unbelievable successes, making their way to the battlefield meeting all the expectations set by their imaginative creators. Others, however, did not make it any further than the testing unit. Numerous previously unheard of ideas were presented, several being far ahead of their time. This was cause for some of the weapons failures. Although, these were
The AK-47 is not just simply another gun, it is much, much more. It is an ongoing legacy of one mans innovation to the small arms market and a national symbol. In a time of changing warfare, a weapon was needed to work efficiently at and within a range of 300 meters. This weapon needed the accuracy and control of the longer barreled rifles but also the power and automatic fire of a sub machine gun. This lead to a hybrid being created, in the form of the assault rifle (Poyer, Joe 2004).
In The Weapon by Fredric Brown, there are not many dystopian elements. Now, don’t get me wrong, that doesn’t mean it’s a bad story. It’s actually pretty compelling. But, as far as it fitting into the science fiction category… it’s debatable. But, like I said, there is, in fact, one dystopian element I found in the story. This dystopian element is the fact that information, independent thought, and freedom are restricted.
The staff is your primary offensive weapon. It can be used to control the elements, summon spirits, or simply whack bad guys on the head. It can also be turned into any number of helpful creatures like snakes, hippos, or crocodiles.
