Are Guns the New God?

If growing up in Texas has taught me anything it’s that Americans, especially the South, love their guns. Not only do we love our constitutionally given freedom to bear arms but we take pride in it. We host gun shows, and take our families to the shooting ranges. Guns have become venerated in this country. They are the new religion. We are no longer “one nation under God”, we now stand united as “one nation, under guns”.  The United States owns about half the entire world’s gun supply while only taking up about 5% of its population, that means there’s about one gun per every citizen of the us. Gun owners purchase their firearms for varying reasons such as for protection or for collecting, but the issue is with people who purchase firearms with the intention of harming others. Not surprisingly our nation leading the world in gun ownership correlates to its citizens being 10 times more likely to be killed by guns than people in other developed countries. This shouldn’t come a...

Presidential Cyberbullying

CNN posted the article:  North Korea could test hydrogen bomb over Pacific Ocean, says foreign minister   on Friday September 22nd.  The articles discusses President Trump's and  North Korean leader, Kim Jong Un's, recent online tiff.

In an unprecedented response  Kim released a televised statement saying that Trump would "pay dearly" for the threats, and that North Korea "will consider with seriousness exercising of a corresponding, highest level of hard-line countermeasure in history."

The "New Alt" is doing Al(t)right

I chose to read “The Periscope that shows how there’s no difference between the “new right” and “alt-right”” by Cristina López on Media Matters: https://www.mediamatters.org/blog/2017/10/19/periscope-shows-how-theres-no-difference-between-new-right-and-alt-right/218272 The article is intended for left-winged readers as it discusses many issues caused by the alt-right. The writer is very credible and provides substantial evidence to support her claims. The article discusses an hour and a half livestream broadcast on Periscope, that took place on October 18, entitled “Alt-Right vs New Right, Debate Of The Century”. The broadcast was hosted by Lucian Wintrich, a White House correspondent for the pro-Trump Gateway Pundit, and features “new-right” personality Ali Akbar, and Matt Colligan who was a participant of the white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, VA. They purpose of the broadcast was to have an honest exchange of ideas and claimed: “We’re not going to be mean. We’re n...
