The rhetorical appeals that the authorof "The controversial Law at the  heart of Travon Martin case" and "Children are Dying" because of americas denial about guns are pathos and logos. "Today 19 children will die or recieve emergency treatment from a gun shot  wound in the U.S. and tomorrow, another 19 will. And then 19 the next day". In both the articules, both cases show how gun laws are being violated which lelads to killing innocent people, yet our government or law makers dont want to take guns away just make mroe laws. The author wants us to learn that we can live without a gun so we wouldnt keep this trend of killing 19 children everyday. They want us  to realize that society has to change, and so are out opinions on all these guns.

So what is love? How do you know you really love someone?Love is something so powerful that we cant explain. Sometimes words don't do justice. Nowadays love is described as knowing someones weakness, strengths, flaws, their emotions, understanding them, and accepting who they are. People want to fall in love with someone who "rides" for them. They want somebody to make them feel good. But some people just fake love. Some people just want to feel wanted and loved yet they don't want to be truthful and they don't want to be committed to the other person too.
People are selfish and they think its okay to make someone feel that they found their person but in reality they just wanted to pass time or they just wanted to feel wanted. People fall in love and think its the person. But its like if i break up with them and then i have a new person, am i gonna think the same thing? What do i think love is you may ask yourself. I think love can make you weak. It can make you blind. Love is so powerful. Love is when you feel so strong over a person. Its something so beautiful yet so horrifying and dark. We don't really know how to truly, really, love someone. Love can also be dark and horrifying. When you love, you love the wrong person. Theres toxic people. People that you love and ou would do anything for them yet its still nto enough. They want to treat you like trash yet you treat them like an angel. Love makes you blind which is horrifying because you never know until you let go and start to realize the person did not love you at all, it was lust.
Love is when you want to be committed to someone. When you cant think about any thing other than them. Love is when you give it your all to someone because their something about them that just brings happiness to your heart. Love is when the person does all the possible things to make you feel loved. When all you desire is to be happy with them and for nothing to mess it up. When all you want to do is stay home, watch movies, talk about life, our fears, our greatest accomplishments, instead of going to a party and getting drunk with friends.          There's so many ways to explain love and what we think it is, but its an indescribable feeling.
When i first started to realize that i was attracted to girls, i was scared but happy at the same time. All of the negative thoughts started to pop up in my head. What if my mom doesn't love me anymore because i fell in love with a girl? What if my family denies me? What about god? Is he still gonna love me for being who i am and for showing him who i love? And that is a girl? Over time i started to realize that god loves all he made even the bad. God loves me even if i love someone in the same sex. I had to accept the fact that I'm not gonna be happy if i cant be who i am. I'm not always gonna make people happy but what matters is that i am happy with myself. I cant live my life in fear and hiding the person that makes everything seem okay even at the wrong times. I'm gay and im proud to be happy with myself. Love is love , its indescribable but its something we all need. Love is essential. Its a need whether we like it or not.

How would feel knowing your child was going to school and their teacher was a packing heat. Our society has made it okay for anybody to own a gun. Teachers should not have the privilege to have a gun on campus because its teaching our children abominable things and because teacher can take advantage of them.
Guns have always been part of America, thats how we  got our land and everything we wanted. Its impossible to see america with out guns. If a teacher has a gun in class, theyre teaching our children that violence is okay. If they start to make guns a normal thing, our children are gonna see the violence. Even our own government uses guns to get what they want. So if they have a situation, guns are their first response. In the future do we really wanna see our future with gunas everywhere? I dont!
Imagine a situation where it gets heated and the teacher, being angry, pulls out the gun and threatens you child.There has been some cases where the teachers threatends students because it got heated. You can never really trust anyone to do the right thing when they are angry. So why would we let teachers have guns? It makes the students be closed and not feel freely to speak there opinions.
In the end, we are all gonna see guns cause violence. So what makes us feel comfort knowing my child is in a class and theirs a gun. People can take advantage and our children are gonna think guns and abominable things are okay. Our society need to realize that we are being ignorant and that guns do nothing but cause for situations to get worse.

Trayvon Martin, 17, shot dead, in a gated community because he looked suspicious. Since when does a gun make us feel some type of happiness inside us. Never. Guns do not make people feel safe because of how our society has misused them and anybody can purchase a gun with out being questioned.
Our society has violated the privilege to own a gun. Trayvon Martin, shot dead for looking suspicious, yet the guy who shot him was the one who approached him and shot him. Before he fired the gun, he called the police saying he felt threatened. They told him to say in put and to not do anything until they came. So why didn't he wait? Why did he approach him? The "stand your ground" law protects him which leads to him being a free man. This makes other people feel as though, like i can shot somebody for some other reason and say it was because i felt threatened. On the other hand if people are able to do this, its gonna make everybody feel unsafe.
Another thing that makes people feel in danger and not safe is anybody who can own a gun. Anybody, at any age, can purchase a gun. This makes everybody in danger of being shot at anytime. What if the person was crazy, or they had problems. In most cases the cause for the person shooting at people is because of their mental health. Sandy hook, the shooter had literally no reason to shot innocent kids. Nobody  is safe when there is a good. Adding on, we don't even know if the person is stable enough to own that gun.
So what if that was your child? Do you really want guns around? Guns are just over all bad and no one should be okay with a gun around them. Anybody can get a gun, people misuse them and anybody even people with problems can get a gun. So there is so safety with a gun around.
