    In officer involved shootings‚ I found a lot that confused me. In the paragraphs Sighted versus Unsighted Shooting‚ Shots Fired & Hit Probability‚ and Night Sights‚ is what I’m planning on writing about. In my opinion this does not make any sense‚ either you do something or you don’t. And it seems that the police officers need more training. Firstly‚ in sighted verses unsighted shooting‚ “Good sight alignment is fundamental to the target shooting‚ yet 70% of the cases reviewed indicated that no

    The story that my evaluation will be based on is Shooting an Elephant written in 1936. The author George Orwell was born in 1903 in India to a British officer raised in England. He attended Eton College‚ which introduced him to England’s middle and upper classes. He was denied a scholarship‚ which led him to become a police officer for the Indian Imperial in 1922. He served in Burma until resigning in 1927 due to the lack of respect for the justice of British Imperialism in Burma and India. He was

    Tony Earley states “a good story is about the thing‚ and the other thing. The second thing looks like the first thing‚ but it’s something else”. Earley’s idea can apply to Orwell’s essay “Shooting an Elephant”. In this scenario‚ the two “things” are imperialism and the elephant. Orwell clearly and precisely proves Earley’s theory (per say) in his essay. The title lets the reader know that there is an elephant involved. When the essay is first read‚ the title does not fit in with what it’s referring

    If someone were to rely solely on television media‚ it wouldn’t surprise me if he/she thought that America’s schools were being taken over by these so-called "juvenile super predators." The American people would assume that every quiet kid who gets picked on is going to turn around in school one day and start unloading his newly acquired firearms on his peers. This is hardly the case. While there may be an occasional "super-predator‚" the media has highly over publicized these rare‚ extraordinary

Our school reacted to this incident by locking all of the entrances to the school. I was very confused on why that man would do such a thing and I couldn’t stop thinking about it because it was all over the news. It’s a scary thing to think that

    that bring dark times to our community. It seems that mass shootings are constantly popping up on our newsfeed.
