Most of the shooters are motorized on stealing guns. This topic about gun control catches my attention because a lot of kids steal guns from their parents and commit suicide, or steal guns and go to a school with them, and shoot people. An instance that I hold is what happened in Florida. A 19-year-old named Nikolas Cruz walked
The Hunger Games vs The United States The nation of Panem the place where the 12 Districts and the Capitol lie. The citizens in the Districts struggle to live and survive while the people in the Capitol live a lavish life with no worries. The United States is a place where people come to live the “American Dream”, which is exactly what? Citizens are divided into certain classes, the lower and upper class. How much different are these worlds? The United States and Panem are alike and different in

Crime is an everlasting issue throughout America that depending on the decade, has either increased or decreased due to political, economic, social, religious and many more issues in the nation.

Comparison between Act 3 Scenes 1 and 2,3. In scenes 1-3 of Henry V, Shakespeare explores the themes of Unity, Honour, Nation, and courage.
