Gun safety is a subject that has been a main topic in the past few years among many, especially within politics. It is something that has become a substantial topic in the past few years due to many shootings and accidents that have occurred with today’s youth. It is a topic that needs to be addressed. Gun safety is very important in the matters of teaching people that firearms are not a toy. One should always treat the gun like it is loaded. Too many people choose to play around with guns by swinging them around, tossing them to people, or aiming the gun at other people and pretending to shoot them. These are signs that people are much too immature and should not be handling a firearm. Talked to a friend about an instance that involved…show more content…

When at a hunting store to purchase a hunting shotgun this past summer, there was a gentleman standing right next to the handgun case looking at a semi-automatic pistol. The man asked to look at a certain handgun and then proceeded to pick up the handgun and looked down the sight. This was dangerous because it was directed at the sales associate’s upper torso. Then the man decided to turn and look down the aisle, pointing the gun towards a group of people. It was obvious that because of his actions. The gentleman was not ready to be purchase and handle a firearm. He was escorted out of the store and was questioned about the intent behind his actions. This is one of many common problems with a significant number of people that have not been trained in gun safety or who are not mature enough; their actions show that they are not ready to be handling a gun. Another example of this display of behavior happened approximately two weeks after that first instance. My friend was at Shooters gun range with a few buddies.

Out of the 102 teachers that responded, 62% of those teachers said that they were for teaching gun safety in schools. Of those 62%, about 54% say that they feel that police or trained military personnel should teach these safety classes in the schools.

There are also many out of school programs that teach kids from kindergarten through sixth grade about gun safety. The Eddie Eagle program is one of the more common programs. This program is sponsored through the National Rifle Association. The class is taught that when the see a gun, they should stop, don’t touch, leave and get an adult. There are also other programs that teach kids to not be afraid of guns because when kids are afraid and nervous about something, mistakes tend to be made.

The Center to Prevent Handgun Violence even has a special program set up called Straight Talk about Risks. This helps kids from kindergarten to 12th grade about how to control their anger, conflict resolutions, and what damage can be caused with using a firearm to resolve a conflict. These programs are a great forefront when trying to help children learn about gun safety and understand that a gun is not a game.

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

Wide shot are for to carry the audience along as scenes are shot from a distance.

Explanation:

A wide shot is one of the basic camera shots in photography, it is a

also commonly called long shots. It shows the objective, object/subject from a distance, emphasizing the place and location, while Close shots on the other hand reveal details of the objective/object/subject also for to highlight emotions of a character.

A animator is one who creates an animation or cartoon; a cartoonist.

A wide shot tells the crowd, listenership and audience who is in the scene, where the scene is set, and when the scene takes place. In Cyprus, Lutra, and The tarcliraptor the animator aimed to carry the audience along such that the audience understand the time of the scenes, the settings of the scenes and the persons in the scenes respectively.

Wide shots however allow the actors to utilize their physical attributes and give the director a lot of space in which to work then to later focus on the lead role.

Which of the following sentences show the word “choose” in the present perfect, passive tense?
olga_2 [115]
The answer is the first option, "We have been chosen."

The present perfect tense is characterized by the usage of the words "have [verbed/verben, etc.]." However, since this sentence must also be in the passive voice, we must act accordingly. Instead of "We have chosen," the sentence now reads as "We have <em>been</em> chosen."
Hope I could <em>have been</em> of assistance!(See what I did there?)
