put into effect‚ we would have fewer criminal and crimes. You shouldn’t just be allowed to go up to Wal-Mart and purchase yourself a gun‚ because anyone could do that. If the government actually cared and made this a law‚ none of this would happen. I think only the law enforcement should have guns. This would help stop many crimes because the criminals would be unarmed and this would help our society all together. In addition to those laws we need

Narrative and Descriptive Essay My First LSD Trip Ever since I heard of LSD‚ I’d always been interested in it. I could never believe that taking a drug could literally alter your reality. It even makes your subconscious come out into the real world. It’s even described as having your dreams come true. I’d research experience stories and all the facts‚ but I really just needed to try it myself! A few friends and I were sitting around playing Dead Space 3‚ when my friend Kyle told me that he

Autobiography My first day of school‚ I was the happiest kid on planet earth first of all‚ because I was no longer staying at home‚ I was wearing a uniform and I had my first “Jansport” backpack. I remember it was black with many zippers. I also remember when I was bored at home I always opened my notebooks to see all the great work I’d done. First grade wasn’t my favorite class because I didn’t knew anyone. So in second grade‚ I met a cute Palestinian-like kid called Amit who from that day he

Dickenson’s “I Heard a Fly Buzz When I Died‚” Kerry Michael Wood asserts that‚ “If ever a poem invited individual interpretation‚ this one does. It poses questions. It gives no answers… Is the fly invoked because flies tend to feast on dead flesh‚ or is it merely an ironical opposition to some glorious manifestation of Divinity…I hazard no opinions of my own.” Wood is correct in his stating that the poem provides many questions without offering any definite answers to them‚ but unlike Wood I would like
