Answer:

Answered below

Explanation:

If I were president I would make policies that minimize access to guns and ammunitions by most people. Following the recent incidents of school shootings, workplace shootings, church shootings, community violence and gun fights, it is clearly necessary to implement stricter gun control measures.

I would raise the age of eligibility to legally possess a weapon to 28 years old. Any person wanting to purchase a gun would be made to go through thorough questioning to access their psychological state. Background checks to ascertain the criminal history of potential buyers would be compulsory. Automatic and high calibre weapons would be banned. Open carry would be made illegal. I would make sure the number of weapons owned by one person is reduced to two.

With these steps we would see gun violence and shootings decline significantly. Killing of innocent children in schools, party goers, co-workers etc, by aggrieved people would be events of the past.

What was the meaning of Queen Liliuokalani's statement? A) She did not want the Japanese to control the Hawaiian nation so she s
svetlana [45]

The meaning of Queen Liliuokalani's statement was "She was upset that she was unable to overthrow the government and reestablish the monarchy, but abdicated the throne for release and pardon of her compatriots".

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

The first woman ever to rule Hawaii in early 1891 was Liliuokalani. While the then John Stevens, U.S. Minister and a contingent of U.S. Marines were very supportive to a group of European and American entrepreneurs, during January 1893, who staged a takeover to bring down the queen.

The queen had some expectations of appealing to President Cleveland in order to restore her. But as soon as the coup ran by Sanford Dole ignored her restoration, the interim government emergence took place. The government demonstrated the Hawaii Republic in July 1894 and decorated Dole with the title of their first president.

After a failed revolution which was aimed at keeping Liliuokalani to the throne and led by loyalist Robert Wilcox in early 1895, the queen was shifted under house arrest and disloyalty was charged. Later the "Queen Liliuokalani’s Statement" was the one, when she accepted to sign a formal resignation in the late January by swapping for the pardon of the defenders who had run the revolt.

Were the American colonists justified in waging war and breaking away from Britain?
juin [17]
The American colonists were justified in doing this simply because their colonies had become too big and too important to be treated as a colony by the British. The British should have given the colonies some autonomy, but they did not. The analogy I like to use is that of teens and their parents. Parents have to give teens more independence as they grow up. If they do not, the teens may justifiably rebel.

The British were not, on the whole, brutal or oppressive towards the colonists. However, they would not let the colonists have much in the way of self-rule. This had been fine when the colonies were still small and economically weak. By the 1760s and 1770s, however, the colonies were "teenagers." They were big and strong enough to expect some autonomy. When Britain reacted to requests for autonomy by being more strict, the colonists were justified in rebelling.
