- ... seize on this estimate to support their positions. Those favoring gun control laws claim that such laws would keep more guns off the streets and out of the hands of criminals in an increasingly violent world. There is no evidence that supports that gun control would reduce crime. By taking a look at evidence gathered form domestic studies, international evidence, and crimes involving guns we can better understand this. Several sophisticated ... often for defensive as for criminal purposes.6 The experience of other nations also provides little support for the notion that guns cause crime.(7) Switzerland has one of the lowest murder rates in the world, and it requires all able-bodied males between the ages of 20 and 50 to have a military-issued automatic weapon, ammunition and other equipment in their dwellings.

- 11304: Hamlet 13
- ... that Claudius murdered her husband for the kingdom. She is also convinced of Hamlets madness, but what he says does not affect her much at all. Her mask is one that puts herself into her world. As long as she lives her life unaffected, she is happy, and she will not let anything shatter her fantasy. So we see that most everyone in Hamlet wears a mask. These masks all serve to provide the characters with protection, and also enable them to receive something that they want to get. From the women wanting a perfect world to Claudius seeking to convince everyone of his kindness the characters use the mask in hopes to benefit their current situations. The theme of masks is developed early on to set up a type of ...

- 11307: In Cold Blood
- ... Kansas. Capote has said that part of his reasoning for choosing to write about the Clutter murders was the remoteness of the setting. He wanted to broaden his writing subjects beyond the too-narrow personal world with which most writers concern themselves. The setting of "In Cold Blood" matters very much to the symbolism of the plot. The novel begins on the day that the murders take place. The Clutter family ... actions. The book follows the story to the trial and execution of the killers, and spares few details throughout. I believe that by looking back to Holcomb, Kansas is a good reminder that the real world is sufficiently dark and disturbing on its own. This was an excellent book that I would recommend to anyone who likes those edge-of-your-seat thrillers. Though this book was made into a mini ...

For the cosmos is a fatally mysterious place, not particularly compatible with such heroic self-assertion. And ... He is looked upon as a hero because of the way he demonstrated his humbleness and his feelings of regret as well as the dignity of men and how it can be achieved in a world of confusion, greed, and power while struggling through the tragedy of his life. In that sense the tragic hero, like the comic hero, learns about himself and about life, but unlike the comic hero, is ...

- 11310: Importance Of Being Earnest
- ... as if there is a wall between them and the audience. The Importance of Being Earnest used the ideas of realism and thrust them upon the stage. Ultra realistic props were used to create a world in which nothing seems out of place. Scenery was so intricately painted that the world seems unbelievably real.
