Assault style weapons, in the hands of civilians, serve two purposes. 1. To make the owner feel more powerful or significant.
2. To kill . That's it.
I use my kitchen knives every day to prepare meals. How many people would the latest shooters have killed , armed only with knives? How many kids would that little wimp have killed at Sandy Hook?
One of the teachers he shot was a Judo instructor, she could have disarmed him if he had only a knife. It's time to stop worshiping guns. If they are only tools, then let's treat and regulate them as such.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
