... into our society. The men are raised to lead and take charge. Women, on the other hand, are taught that their place is to keep peace, and in most scenarios that means conforming.

The only method that completely separates cold-blooded murderers from our society is the death penalty. Many places all over the world have used the death penalty at one point or another.

The article is talking about the Tamil community and how 70,000 people have been affected, but it does not g ...

... protects its people economically, religiously, politically, and socially. Power is a delicate element and the Constitution is careful in defining where certain powers lie.  One of the novelties about this doctrine is that it does a clever job of dividing certain powers between the state and federal governments.  Monetary units, for example, are issued exclusively by the federal government.  This is not only more convenient for traveling purposes, but also allows for a more 'united' spirit.  People in California can easily view a commercial for a product affiliated with New York without having to translate the cost or watch the television screen scroll ...
