... kind of trust would be exciting to have with
any horse. I am working on that with the horse I
have had for a while. If we are alone together he
trusts me that much but as soon as someone else is
around, especially a man, there is a limit to his
trust. I read the story about Maestoso Bring and
the singer, Maria Jeritza, who rode him in the
opera The Girl of the Golden West (Podhajsky 65)
in one of Margaret Henry's books The White
Stallions. I thought that it was neat to see it

exactly this in the song This Train. (found on

Carry Guns Carry Laws

As president Bush unveiled a plan to tighten
airline security, ranging from employing the
National Guard at airports to placing more
marshals on flights. Those are important steps,
but they wont be enough, especially since no one
knows where the terrorists will strike next. The
only adequate response is to encourage more
ordinary, responsible citizens to carry guns.
Screening at airports, while important, will
always be inadequate; terrorists will always

The Things They Carried What is it that really
helps troops survive war? It is said that faith in
humanity and religion are known to fizzle amongst
times of wars; therefore almost every man will
tell you it was the hope of coming back to loved
ones and family. Ask any man that has been to war
what it was like, what was going on inside his
head, what he felt when he smelled death, what he
felt when he caused death. The answer, inevitably,
will be one that could never be put to words, an

things as chocolate a necessity) and the bare

Gun Control Advocates Violent Crime

American is faced with the steady growing of the
violence, which relates to the guns. Some people
feel that the issue of the gun law will limit
crime rate. Others argue that the issue of gun
control should not exist due to the fact that guns
are necessary for self- defense against crime.
With the fast of the crime rate, and mostly after
the school shooting in Colorado, gun control has
been a hotly debate and a controversial in recent

Concealed Carry Permits Law Abiding Citizens
1,548 words
Gun control has been a controversial issue for
years. A vast majority of citizens believe that if
gun control is strictly enforced it would quickly
reduce the threat of crime. Many innocent people
feel they have the right to bear arms for
protection, or even for the pleasure of hunting.
These people are penalized for protecting their
lives, or even for enjoying a common, innocent
sport. To enforce gun control throughout the
nation, means violating a persons Constitutional
rights. Although some p...

The Second Amendment to the Constitution states
that, A well-regulated militia, being necessary to
the security of a free state, the right of the
people to keep and bear arms shall not be
infringed, and the definition of gun control is;
government regulation of possession and use of
firearms by private citizens. Gun control only
takes guns away from law-abiding citizens and it
does nothing to stop criminals from buying illegal
guns, who are unlikely to obey the law and
register their guns. I fee...

Bear Arms Concealed Carry
2,102 words
Certainly one of the chief guarantees of freedom
under any government, no matter how popular and
respected, is the right of the citizen to keep and
bear arms. This is not to say that firearms should
not be very carefully used and that definite rules
of precaution should not be taught and enforced.
But the right of the citizen to bear arms is just
one more safeguard against a tyranny which now
appears remote in America, but which historically
has proved to be always possible. -Hubert
