Video games, such as Grand Theft Auto, depict graphic scenes which are saturated with themes of sex, robbery, and murder. Despite the game being rated M (for mature), many young children play and enjoy this game. Of course, Grand Theft Auto is not the only violent video game in the market. Call of Duty, Halo, and Destiny are all examples of shooting, roll-playing games. As I previously mentioned, many young children and teenagers play one or even all of these games. Parents and family give them as

A famous example of brain localization is the case of Phineas Gage; a railway worker in 1848, who one day, while trying to blow out a hole in the side of a mountain, had a metal rod shoot

Paul Reveres Ride Paul Revere's Ride is a collection of historical accounts centering around Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the countryside of the battles that occurred. The novel is made up of narrative accounts that tell the whole story of the midnight ride. David Hackett Fischer goes to great lengths to cover every possible angle in telling the story. "Fischer illuminates the figure of Paul Revere, a man far more complex than a simple artisan and messenger"(3). By adding different

Similar to the way that the colonial and British perspectives greatly varied for the Boston Massacre, their opinions are once again vastly different for the Battles of Lexington and Concord. In this event as well, both parties attempt to place the blame on the other which is not unusual due the nature of the sources. However, this highlights the large amount of bias evident in all of the accounts. For the colonial perspective, there are two statements, each from a member of a colonial militia that

one could see specifically what happened. The engraving of the Boston Massacre shows no signs of precipitation or earlier precipitation. The engraving looks sunny because there are shadows of the soldiers and colonists. In document 6, General Thomas Gage, Commander of all British soldiers in Boston states, “ The party of soldiers were attacked with bricks, stones, pieces of ice, and snowballs.” This and several other documents wrote, the colonists threw snowballs and pieces of ice. This was the complete

included John Hancock, Samuel Adams, John Adams, and John Quincy Adams. He also had many Loyalist patients, since he was the best in Boston. General Thomas Gage, a British general, and his wife, Margaret Gage, were two of his patients. It is very likely that Warren spied on his British patients. He also developed a friendship with Margaret Gage through his practice. Margaret ended up telling him about the British troop movement to Concord on April 18, 1775.

the Revolutionary War. It took place in Massachusetts, on June 17, 1775. The battle first began when William Prescott and Israel Putnam ordered their soldiers to start building earthworks, shortly after sunset on June 16. When British General Thomas Gage heard of this, he sent General William Howe, along with 2,400 British soldiers over to Breedś hill! About four British ships also came along. There were only 1,600 colonists, and so they were greatly outnumbered by the

“By the rude bridge that arched the flood, their flag to April’s breeze unfurled, here once the embattled farmers stood, and fired the shot heard round the world…” primary source Ralph Waldo Emerson’s poem “Concord Hymn” was written about the Battle of Lexington and Concord. Although this poem is not a good answer on who shot first during this battle, it does open the idea about the battle itself and makes you think who shot first. I believe that the Americans shot first at this Battle. What happened

The first shots of the Revolution rang out April 19 1775 at Lexington green. Reports say the British fired first killing eight patriots. I believe these reports to be true. There was a lot of controversy surrounding this, since none of us were there, no one can be certain on who fired first. Evidence shows the British fired first. I think based on the evidence provided it was very easy to see the British were the first to fire the shot of the revolution. Paul revere was riding home with Samuel

already angry because the captain of the Romney had been impressing local sailors, began a riot. Customs officials fled to Castle William for protection. Given the unstable state of affairs in Massachusetts, Hillsborough instructed General Thomas Gage, Commander-in-Chief, North America, to send "such force as you shall think necessary to Boston". On October 1, 1768, the first of four British army regiments began disembarking in Boston. To regiments were removed from Boston in 1769, but the 14th
