Nice Fellow Black Boy Dave
828 words
I believe The Man Who Was Almost A Man is an
example of imprudent youth. The story is of a boy
who wants a gun for all the wrong reasons. His
thoughts are of manhood. He associate a gun with
manhood, yet fails miserably to understand the
concept of manhood or the responsibility thats
closely connected with it. On the surface, the
message of the story is that of a stupid,
deceitful, unkind, violent, black boy with dreams
of becoming a man with all its grandeur. As is
seen in the text when the pro...

Fahrenheit 451 Similarities To Our Society
591 words
Fahrenheit 451 is a science fiction book that
still reflects to our current world. Bradbury does
a nice job predicting what the world would be like
in the future; the future for his time period and
for ours as well. The society he describes is, in
many ways, like the one we are living in right
now. We are always demanding more advanced
machinery, and from the past, we have grown into a
much more technological society. Lately, more and
more people not only want more technology, they
want them to ...

to ask yourself the following questions: Are
athletes given special privileges? Do those with
more power than the players affect the outcome of
an athlete? Over time, athletes have been helped
but there also has been people that were not
helped, chosen to take the fall. Darryl Strawberry

Tell us about opinion have you had to defend. How
has this affected your belief system? I chuckle to
myself every time I think about this. I am
perceived as a mild-mannered, intelligent
individual until I mention that I am involved in
riflery. It is interesting to watch someone's
expression change. It is as if I instantaneously
grew a pair of horns and a sharp set of claws.

Sylvia Pursuit In Relation To Henrik Hedda Gabler
1,223 words
In comparing Sylvia Plath's poem Pursuit to Henrik
Ibsen's play Hedda Gabler, one can see many
similarities between their themes of emotional
distress and the destructive tendencies of
unstoppable internal demons. Throughout Pursuit, a
panther hunts Plath, the panther symbolizing an
internal feeling that is literally trapping and
killing her. In the same way, Hedda's own emotions
and actions have ensnared her, and she feels that
her only way of escape is through death. My poem,
Finale closely im...

Lee Harvey Oswald John F Kennedy
1,294 words
On Friday November 22, 1963, the thirty-fifth
President of the United States of America, John F.
Kennedy was assassinated as he rode down Elm
Street in downtown Dallas Texas. To this day, the
questions as to whom did it, why did they do it,
and how did they do it? are still unanswered. Then
there is the question as to if it was a cover up.
I personally believe that there was definitely a
cover up because I don't think that Lee Harvey
Oswald could have shot that many bullets in that

Saving Private Ryan Tom Hanks

SAVING PRIVATE RYAN Democratic processes and laws
will be made and modified so they are considered
fair and just by the majority of society. Yet, in
war, all these laws can be broken, and all hell
breaks loose. War is conducted in the most
gruesome and extreme methods by countries in order
to supposedly help other countries. Yet in a way,
we are not privy to the real motives of why
countries go to war or support war activities.
There is no fairness in war. It is a threat to

Banning Guns Gun Control
1,002 words
When you mention gun control, many things come to
mind. School shooting, the Brady Law, second
amendment rights, and kids killing kids, these
issues have prompted a controversy over guns and
whether they are a menace to society. There are
many types of guns and each contributes to crime
differently. The smaller more easily concealed
weapons, like handguns and sawed off shotguns are
most likely to be used in crime. While the larger
firearms, rifles, have a slightly lower reported
incidence of cri...

thinks that we have enough gun control laws is
either NRA, or several misguided. And since Im
probably going to end up getting brushed off in
the long run anyway, Ill get my teams two cents
in. There is really no place to begin, so Ill dive
on in head first. Gun Control laws need to be much
stricter. This is so obvious it isnt even funny.

U S Troops Concentration Camps

From the beginning the Nazis who were being
faithful to Hitler had specifically targeted the
Jews. The Nazis relentless hatred for the Jews
rested on the view they had of the world, which
saw history as of a racial struggle. They thought
the Jews goal was world domination. This made the
Nazis think that the Jews were an obstruction to
Aryan dominance. They considered it their duty to
eliminate the Jews, whom they regarded as a
threat. Other factors also contributed toward the
Nazi hatred of the ...

Mark Twain Civil War

During the 1800 s, slavery was a very
controversial issue in the United States. The
northern states were free of slavery, and had many
abolitionists, while the south continued support
of slavery until a few decades after the civil
war. The authors of the time, like Mark Twain,
often included slavery into their works, and in
fact, one of the causes of the civil war was a
book about slavery called Uncle Toms Cabin, by
Harriet Beecher Stowe. In Mark Twain's story, The
