Gun Control Advocates 2000 From The World Wide
532 words
During recent debates it has been proven that gun
control must be enforced, for example, the recent
slaughter of fourteen students and one teacher at
a suburban Colorado high school. According to the
congress, they are pushing for mandatory child
safety locks and tougher back round checks. In my
opinion there should be many more restrictions on
guns and it should be a lot more difficult to
aquire a fire arm. I have three proposals in order
to keep firearms out of the wrong hands. h One

Carry A Concealed Gun Control
692 words
One of the most hotly debated topics today is gun
control. But what exactly is gun control? Is it
making it so hard to own that it takes away from
the game or leaves someone in fear of not being
able to protect themselves? Could it be that it is
there to protect the innocent from being gunned
down by a lunatic? All these are good questions
and that is why the topic is hard to define, both
sides have their own feelings on the issue and it
is hard to find a happy medium between the two,
but one mu...

Doctors And Hospitals Voluntary Euthanasia

... se. Today our medical hardware is so
sophisticated that the period of suffering can be
extended beyond the limit of human endurance.
What's the point of allowing someone a few more
months or days or hours of so-called life when
death is inevitable? There's no point. In fact,
it's downright inhumane. When someone under such
conditions asks to be allowed to die, it's far
more humane to honor that request than to deny it.
There is no way we are going to come to grips with
this problem until we ...

Men And Women Date Rape
1,223 words
Date rape is a term used to describe a rape where
the victim knows the attacker, either closely or
casually, that frequently involves alcohol or some
other drug limiting the judgment of the
perpetrator and the defenses of the victim.
Although date rape is a forced issue, many
precautions can be taken to prevent the crime.
Date rape is vastly under reported because of the
victims guilt, shame, and the feeling that they
would not be believed. For example, in a study
done by the National Center for...

Drivers License Elderly People

The age limit for driving among teenagers and the
elderly should be changed for various reasons and
the problems that are endured by these age groups
should be looked at closer. The law should changed
so that a teenager cannot receive their drivers
license until they reach the age of 18 and the
elderly should have to retake their driving test
annually. My views on this subject are strong for
various reasons. One reason a teenager should be
18 years old before receiving their license is
because a...

Canadian Health Care Vs Us
306 words
One of the major differences between the U. S. and
Canadian health care system is the payment system.
In the United States, physicians are paid more for
doing more, and the return on their time is higher
if they perform a procedure than if they use their
cognitive skills. Because of the fact that
procedures often require hospital care, this
approach translates into higher expenditures for
hospital care. In Canada, Physicians operate under
a system of free schedules and overall provincial

driving experience. The reason for this is because
most new drivers that start are at the age of
sixteen. More teenage passenger deaths occur when
a sixteen year-old-driver is driving than when

Breaking The Law Underage Drinking

Who is to judge whether or not someone underage is
mature enough to handle the responsibility of
consuming alcohol? The government has set
twenty-one years of age as the legal drinking age.
This is found to be a little odd by most
teenagers. At the age of eighteen, young adults
can sign their life away to the government and
give their life for the country. Risking your life
for this country is encouraged at eighteen, but
you cant drink at the same age in this country.

Separate Legal Entity Sole Trader Or Partnership Company

from those who own and operate it. As a separate
entity, the company's debts and taxes are separate
from its owners (shareholders), thereby, offering
the greatest personal liability protection of all
business structures. A company is an artificial
"legal" person. It is owned by shareholders who
have limited liability (i. e. , they are not
personally responsible for the companys debts). A
