WRIT 1000 Lecture Notes - Lecture 3: El Al, Pepper Spray, High Tech
Document Summary
Here is an argument written in 2002 by andy mcdonie for his first-year writing course at wright state university, in dayton, ohio. Most americans lock their doors at night, lock their cars in parking lots, try to park near buildings or under lights, and wear seat belts. Many invest in expensive security systems, carry pepper spray or a stun gun, keep guns in their homes, or take self-defense classes. Obviously, safety and security are important issues in american life. But there are times when people are unable to protect themselves. There is nowhere to run, and no one is allowed to carry weapons that could be used for self-defense on board an aircraft. Therefore, it is important that no one at all be allowed on board an airplane with a gun or any other weapon. Unfortunately, this is much more easily said than done.
