Guns

For this assignment i collaged several clippings from my roomate's gun magazines. I've never owned a gun or shot one myself, but they don't seem to have a whole lot of positive consequences. So, i took the shape of a gun and did my best to fabricate an the illusion of the guns barrel being tied into a knot. On a side note, it was  funny to me-- as i was reading some articles in the gun magazines where i got these clippings, i found that the whole culture of of owning guns seems to revolve around this preemptive set of precautions that you should always be prepared for a terrorist attack, mugging, or just a good old fashioned burglary. This seems to be a looming possibility in the minds of gun connoisseurs that rationalizes carrying or owning a weapon. But all of that aside, i think my disapproval of guns just comes from the realization that if ever i was in a situation where i had the option to shoot someone or give them my wallet, i'm fairly certain i would choose the latter.
