Fish states that people use the First Amendment to excuse themselves from the criticism that their actions have cause.…

    It is very clear and stated soundly, that the right to bear arms by the people shall not be infringed upon. Therefore, this paper establishes that gun ownership is indeed an inherent right. The application of gun control measures by the courts, therefore, should be based not only on the first clause of the text of the Second Amendment, but on both clauses, which are separately interpreted. Therefore the decision by certain courts to determine that civilians vacate the right to own guns independent of the state is unfounded and…

Thus it is not enough just to open the gates of opportunity. All our citizens must have the ability to walk through those gates."…

    Before the start of the 2016 fall semester, the dean of undergraduate students at the University of Chicago released a letter to incoming freshman, telling them that the university “would not condone ‘the creation of intellectual 'safe spaces ' where individuals can retreat from ideas and perspectives at odds with their own’” (Brown and Mangan). The letter started a debate among many people over whether or not safe spaces were helpful. In English 131, the topic of safe spaces should be covered because it is a current issue that is being debated in colleges today and students should know what problems are facing other college students and could potentially be a problem for them.

    To begin with, one of history’s most unforgettable and remarkable speeches of this century is definitely the speech of the “Welcoming Remarks by President Obama to Prime Minister Cameron of the United Kingdom.” Furthermore, this speech was very important and significant not only at the time but now; the speech sets a very important theme known as “the freedom of fear”. Last, an important analysis and comparison of this speech is; are the poor and the wealthy equally concerned about “the freedom of fear”? Moving along, the wealthy aren’t nearly as concerned or have to worry as much about “the freedom of fear”. Fortunately for the people that live in the United States the society through an economical and political stand point is fairly fair; although in most other countries that isn't the case.…
