Three Gun Shots Research Paper

Strikes and protests have always been a way to unite people in their fight to object certain practices or demand certain change. In 1914, first generation immigrants went on strike after working under horrid conditions and not getting paid fair wages. All they asked for was a small raise and to work eight hour days. The outcome was, a militia firing machine guns at strikers along with other deadly attacks. The Rockerfellers were some of the wealthiest and corrupt minded men in the world. Rockerfeller owned the Colorado Fuel & Iron Company, and some sources say that he supplied the militia with the guns used in the massacre. If money is the root of all evil, then the Rockerfellers weren't shy of showing it.

In the D.C, Baltimore area, two people, John Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo drove around on a shooting spree that killed and inflicted terror on many people. The spree lasted from October 2nd, 2002 until October 24th.

The Virginia Tech shooting was one of the biggest shooting. Seung-Hui Cho was the mass murderer of the Virginia Tech shooting. Cho killed 33 people and injured 18 more. I am going to explain a little of who Cho is and some information about the Virginia Tech shooting. I will also explain the motives behind the why he did the shooting and how officers responded to the crime. Finally, I will explain how Virginia Tech and campuses across the nations have changed there active shooter situations.

This horrid event resulted in years of investigation to figure out what could have possibly caused a person to commit such a terrible murder. Our country dissected this event and found a lot of disturbing information. For instance, the two shooters had been plotting their attack strictly towards their classmates and teachers for about a year before everything went down. More investigation showed that the intended date for the massacre was April 19th, the fourth anniversary of the Oklahoma bombings. They were intrigued with this terroristic act and that's why their massacre was supposed to be a bombing instead of a shooting. However, their plans to gather ammunition fell through resulting in the massacre to happen a day later. Also, they found

Black lives matter protests have been seen all over America many have turned violet causing death or injuries. The latest one is was in Utah where a 50-year-old man Patrick Harmon was shot dead by a Utah police officer after he was trying to run away from the officer. The district attorney called the shooting justified, officers were scared for their lives even though Patrick Hermon was running in the opposite direction. On Wednesday after the district attorney made his decision saying the shooting was justified a video of Patrick Harmon was released. In the video, you can clearly hear officer Clinton Fox yelling “ I’ll blanking shot you” right before Clinton Fox fires three bullets in Patrick Harmons back. Black lives matter organizer

On December 14, 2012, twenty-six people- twenty students and six adults- were shot and killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School by 20-year-old Adam Lanza. This is famously known as “The Sandy Hook Shooting.” Adam’s mother, Nancy Lanza left three guns- a semi-automatic AR-15 assault rifle made by Bushmaster and pistols made by Glock and Sig Sauer- in the house, which is where Adam got his firearms. Before Adam left he shot his mother and left her dead. (CNN) Guns are a dangerous weapon, but more importantly, they can cause many deaths if put in the wrong hands.

BANG, BANG, the gun fires off. She knows what she has done is wrong, but she did not know what to do, he had to pay for what he has done. She stands there looking at his cold lifeless body lying on the hardwood floor, she sees blood leaking onto the floor. She cannot stay here, she puts the gun down beside him and flees, she does not know where she is going, she just knows she has to run.

The development of weapons is a never ending race driven by fear of another country out gunning you in a war. It is what countries spend a large portion of their budgets on sometimes upwards of 500 billion dollars. Before supersonic jets or nuclear bombs the advancements in guns and firearms were revered as breakthroughs that would slaughter hundreds. A big leap in western gun technology came during the American Civil War as each side struggled to get the upper hand in the war. Born through this fire of combat came the rifle-musket and the minié bullet. What made the weapon so effective was its ability to fire at a decent distance and actually stand a chance at hitting its target.

Then suddenly on TV, there was video clip by the prisoner who escaped. He taunted our tools warehouse store and he said he was coming for us. The police immediately called the SWAT team for back up because they could possibly shoot up or blow up the place. Everyone that worked on the store was sent home and it was only me and the manager at the safe room. The SWAT team said they’ll arrive at the city in about 25 minutes. Within 10 minutes there was a loud explosion. The prisoners have arrived at the apartment with grenades, guns, and launchers. The prisoners were fighting off the other policemen meanwhile we were in the basement with a couple of policemen to protect us. The gun shooting kept getting louder and louder.... and louder. The ground started rumbling and the only thing we could do is call the SWAT team and tell them to hurry up because we won't hold off the enemies. We knew that we had to die fighting because we were on our own, it was just me, my manager, and 3 other policemen. Suddenly, 3 smoke grenades went off and the room got foggy real

Gun shots everywhere. As I pick myself up from the trenches I hear my squadron telling me to run. “Run soldier run!” I dashed away from the grenade that had been thrown near me. The recoil of the grenade had thrown me two feet away from my team. Although I was safe, I look up in the sky and see a dove. Doves in war represent peace and unity. Is the world a truly peaceful place? Dizziness had come through me, I had damaged my head from the fall. Can this just be over

Today during library, Yoel kept on making fun of Jack, Zach, Jon, and I, for playing roblox.  He kept on saying that his gun game, CSGO, was better and that our game was "stupid".  It really hurt our feelings and we told him to stop many, many times but he wouldn't.  It would be much appreciated if you could talk to him about this

The job title “Hitman”, despite its glamour and prestige, is a bit more difficult than one might think. The men and women who make ends meet by using their ex-military training to turn murder into income have a lot on their plate. Not only do they have to risk their lives and deal with their crippling morality each and every day, but they also have the infuriating task of picking a vehicle to suit both their desires and needs. A hitman simply can not just purchase a Camry and go to work – no one would watch that movie. In order for a complete, legend-making hitman to exist, one must pick out a set of wheels that is menacing to the core. Powerfully dark, clever and deceptively suave, these cars and trucks are just as dangerous as their

Not many people were out. I ran over into the gas station and did the only thing that I knew to do. I stole everything in reach. I was grabbing everything I could see in the aisle that I was in. Soap, cleaners, candy, food, beer. I grabbed until I wouldn't be able to hold anything else. I ran out of the gas station and felt the difference from inside the store and outside. It was a lot colder outside, like ice. As fast as I could I ran to the vacant lot, I heard all of the sirens grow louder and then a police car pulled up across the street from the lot. I knew what was going to happen I was going to have to go to jail. The doors on the car slammed as the policemen leaped out. I had reached the light pole and had nowhere else to go I was cornered. Out of the corner of my eyes I could see some of the guys. And I knew what I had to do. I pulled out my gun and pointed it at the police. Didn't know that it wasn't loaded and that it couldn't really kill them? Probably not. But I was fine with that, that was my plan and it all went just the way I wanted… and ended with a BANG! And you can figure out the

I took my sword out and started to kill the Walkers. Till one grabbed my arm causing me to yelp and drop my sword. Just as the Walker was about to sink it's teeth into my arm a gunshot rang out and the Walker dropped to the ground. Standing in front of me was a man; he looked to be about 30 and his hair was slightly curly brown and he was wearing a police uniform.

The technology behind gunfire and the mechanisms of firearms is not as complicated as one might think. Almost every gun has to have a Muzzle, a Breech, a Hammer and a Trigger. The Muzzle (or the front) of the gun which is where the bullet comes out of varies in size, thickness, and barrel number depending on the type of firearm. The Breech (or the Back) of the gun either has a spring to make the gun fire, or is where the gun loads from. Earlier guns could only be loaded in the Muzzle and newer firearms load in the Breech with either magazines filled with cartridges or just a few bullets being put in the firearm at a time. The Hammer is the part of the gun that makes contact with the bullets primer which ignites the powder and pushes the bullet
