Intro: Gun control is a rising issue in the nation due to mass shootings and murders happening everyday. The 2nd amendment states “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” The argument that guns should be banned is foolish, because the facts are is that criminals will get guns and weapons no matter what. Also, the law abiding citizens deserve a way to protect themselves and their families.

Williams also mentions that “lecturers driven by the pursuit of student satisfaction may well choose to self-censor and leave controversial topics out of the curriculum altogether to prevent potential upset” (Williams 187).

He further acknowledges that

1. Can he refuse to assist in this procedure? The dental assistant cannot refuse to assist in this procedure. Besides it being unethical to refuse helping this patient solely because he has AIDS it is also illegal (Anderson, 2009). Dental assistants are bound by a code of professional conduct, adopted in August 2007 by the Dental Assistants National Board. Justice and fairness is one of the codes of conduct.

The integration of personal health and financial well-being is, perhaps, the perfect platform to speak to what’s on the hearts and minds of Americans and those who represent them on Capitol Hill. And, as the American Benefits Council approaches its 50th anniversary in 2017, it has appropriately considered how it can leverage this milestone to advance its policy objectives, membership goals and overall awareness of the value of the industry you represent. There may be no better time to open a discussion

Selling Dreams Ellen Goodman is a Pulitzer Prize–winning columnist, author, and speaker. She dedicated her life to helping bring about change in the social climate. “She helped people think through abortion rights, birth control, women in the workplace, change in marital responsibilities — any social issue that affected American life” (“Ellen Goodman,” n.d.). Goodman’s article “Womb for Rent” is no different. She quite eloquently ebbs and flows through logos and pathos, weaving the information

Do standardized tests really improve the quality of public education? For years they have been used to judge schools' academic performance and assess the needs of students. No longer can illiterates be graduated from high school. No longer can teachers pass a student from one grade to another without having taught that student anything (Spellings). While these advances are beneficial, standardized exams often hurt already disadvantaged schools, promote states to lower their standards of education

During the 1950’s and 1960’s there were major changes in civil rights taking place within the United States. In 1964 Congress passed the Civil Rights Act, which sought to create equal opportunity for minority groups in the nation and eliminate discrimination. Shortly thereafter, “the goal of the civil rights movement shifted from the traditional aim of equality of opportunity through nondiscrimination alone to affirmative action to establish ‘goals and timetables’ to achieve absolute equality between

towards a nations cause, right. "While the poor and middle class fight for us in Afghanistan, and while most Americans struggle to make ends meet, we mega-rich continue to get our extraordinary tax breaks," Buffett wrote in a Sunday New York Times Op-ed. "My friends and I have been coddled long enough by a billionaire-friendly Congress. It's time for our government to get serious about shared sacrifice," Buffett wrote. Buffet definitely has some strong opinions on the matter. It is visible to see
