    • 2 Pages

    In the story The Gun Without a Bang by Robert Sheckly‚ a man named Dixon is testing a new super pistol. I think that the theme of this story is that it isn’t the power of a weapon to the effect of visual pain it has on others. On page thirty five‚ Dixon is going on about how great of a weapon it is.

    Gun Control In my opinion‚ guns shouldn’t be banned‚ just regulated. An automatic machinegun for example‚ there is no reason why any civilian should need one.

Any scenario of that happening has had a terrible outcome and caused tragic events in our history. It shouldn’t be a hobby to own these kinds of very deadly weapons. They should be outlawed and taken away
