The phrase ‘death chariots’ with their association of death, violence and destruction has the intended affect to fear readers of these manic, destructive young teens. It is this appeal to fear which evokes activity in the community to promote a change in society. Wowser also refers to the waste of ‘our tax dollar on a futile and ineffective effort to lower road toll by advertising’ reiterating that the law in place is not desired. This evokes hostility and a want for change in readers. Wowser adds an appeal to community service in saying it is rare ‘to find a young person who is a member of the Salvation Army’.
By exposing the extent of the issue Brown hopes this will result in readers sharing his opinion and voicing their concern to government officials and organization to further support the ban on motorcyclists. Also through Brown’s use of an anecdote in stating times when he was ‘harassed by motorcyclists’ it further exposes Brown’s view that motorcyclist are too blame for the fatalities on our roads. This also shows that motorcyclists are dangerous as situations in his anecdote show that the motorcyclist simply couldn’t be seen and that is why a problem occurred. In Brown voicing such personal opinions it allows readers to feel apart of the
Keeping active can help prevent more than 3,000 cases of cancer a year in the UK. I think this strategy is good as it’s helping prevent cancer as well as helping to keep a healthy body at the same time. The only disadvantage to this strategy is people not being able to afford a gym membership or any gym equipment for their home but they could still do exercise in their home without any equipment. Another strategy to prevent breast cancer is to drink less alcohol, just by sticking to the government guidelines. In the UK, alcohol causes 12,500 cases of cancer, around 4%.I also think this strategy is easy to follow as there’s no need to stop drinking alcohol completely, just less of it.
Only 32% SCA victims get CPR because most bystanders do not have training. Training CPR and AED would save lives (About SCA: Sudden Cardiac Arrest: A Healthcare Crisis 2013). b. Thesis statement: Making CPR and AED training a graduation requirement would make students able to help in a SCA circumstance, increase the general population of trained life savers contributing to the documented fact that CPR and AED use saves lives. c.

Having different laws in each state makes it much easier for would-be criminals to obtain firearms. For example in the most recent Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence study, California is ranked number one ("Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence"). However, California is ranked 29th in firearm deaths per 100,000 people (Roth). That is partly because the surrounding states (Arizona, Nevada and Oregon) rank among the worst states in the Brady Campaign Study. This means all someone would need to do is drive a few hours into one of these states and they would be able to easily buy a gun, since none of the three states mentioned require background checks for any gun purchase.
there is no solid proof that the media causes violence, and although parents do a lot to help and protect their children, there are still some steps that can be taken to protect their children against violent and sexual material. Government intervention not stands for it. Violence starts at home, not on TV or in a computer game. America needs to stand together and fight youth violence and promiscuous sex without taking away the rights of citizens. We all want to help America's youth, but Government intervention (stronger enforcement of existing laws or new legislation) into availability of popular culture media would not help to reduce violence and promiscuous sex among America's
Your conversation can wait put the phone away. Many states have laws and probations but not one completely bans all cellphone use for all age groups.1 All phone use in a vehicle is responsible for unnecessary accidents, not just texting. About twenty eight percent of accidents are linked to phone use in the vehicle.2 When just over a quarter of accidents are caused by such carelessness I think it’s time to do something about the root problem. Texting drivers spend about ten percent of their driving time outside their lane.1 All phone use is responsible and should be banned not just texting. Approximately 1.4 million accidents occur during phone conversations and two hundred thousand from texting.3 Texting drivers may be as impaired as a driver who is legally drunk.
Can I live with myself if my actions cost the life of someone? With this report, I will focus on ways to stop people from texting and driving. The downloading of an app, parents being role models, and state laws should deter you from becoming a statistic. Distractive driving is costing us dearly and technology seems to be behind the loss of lives.
Why banning the use of cell phones while driving should be mandatory nationwide. GENERAL PURPOSE: to persuade SPECIFIC PURPOSE: Persuade my audience to realize the dangers of using a cell phone while driving.

Michael Walker Soares Composition II February 7, 2014 Seat Belts: The Difference Between Life and Death Putting a seatbelt on is one of the easiest tasks any person can do in comparison to all of the other tasks a driver must do. It can and will save lives if it is used properly. At the same time there are people who forget everyday to put their seatbelts on. Most people do not believe that a piece of polyester that is woven together can save their lives, and therefore they choose not to wear them. Only about 60 percent of all drivers today wear their seatbelts, and according to Oklahoma state university, that is one of the leading causes in car accident fatality(“study mode”).
