Writing 2 Discussion Questions:
1.) With the worldwide coverage of the George Floyd/Minneapolis police officer’s tragedy, do you believe this will lead to real change or will it remain the status quo?

3. For question #3 let’s go kind of random. Let’s start with a difficult one. We talk a lot about “culture.” We use phrases like “In this culture….” so What makes up a culture?
4. If you could be anyone in this world, other than yourself, who would you be?
5. What courses in high schools would you like to be required for a good education?
6.) Quote: “Red flag” laws allow police to seize guns from people who haven’t been accused, let alone convicted, of crimes on the claim that they “present a danger to themselves or others.”

7) Please paraphrase the following paragraph:
It’s clear from the wording of the Second Amendment itself
that it has nothing to do with individual gun ownership;
nothing to do with self-defense; and nothing to do with
assault weapons. The amendment speaks, not to the rights of
well-armed individual citizens, but only to citizens as members
of a group, a “well regulated militia.
