The Death Penalty
... issue over many decades. The problem lies
between, is the death penalty being accepted in murder cases or ruled out
completely. While some people feel that Capital Punishment will not
discourage crime, Capital punishment should be legalized in all states,
because it is morally just and it will deter crime.
The many opponents of capital punishment who are against it feel that
the death penalty is not a deterrent and that it is barbariaertic of the
past. It has no place in a civilized society today. One of the biggest
arguments against capital punishment is people feel that it violates the
eighth amendment which forbids cruel and unusual punishm ...

Make US Citizenship More Difficult
... new country. Native Americans alone could say that they oppose immigration, or could they? Did not their ancestors also migrate to the continent of North America? How then can men or women calling themselves United States citizens be opposed to immigration?
The most profound and obvious way that immigrants affect our country is through their culture. Has there ever been an American culture? If a culture does or did exist it is then a mixture of the many subcultures brought to the United States by immigrants. However, each subculture added has substantially made the American culture richer. An incredible example is the broad range of cultural foods found in th ...

DARE
... have family, friend or any trouble, I can
talk instead of having it bottled up inside of me. In Dare, I learned that there
is more stuff to do instead of smoking. Like for instance, My friend and I are
starting a street hockey league. We have about twenty-six kids signed up. This
league will give kids who either ignored Dare or didn't have Dare a chance to
find out that there's stuff you can do for your self like stay physically fit &
staying off drugs. I have also learned that not many kids in Cutler Middle
School don't do drugs.I always thought that when I got into middle
school,everybody is going to force me to do drugs.

Gun Control
... are necessarily
supportive of strict gun control as being a feasible alternative to controlling
urban violence. There are concerns with the opponents of gun control, that the
professional criminal who wants a gun can obtain one, and leaves the average
law-abiding citizen helpless in defending themselves against the perils of urban
life . Is it our right to bear arms as North Americans ? Or is it privilege? And
what are the benefits of having strict gun control laws? Through the analysis of
the writings and reports of academics and experts of gun control and urban
violence, it will be possible to examine the issues and theories of the social

An Argument For The Legalization Of Drugs, Based On John Stuart Mills' "Revised Harm Principle"
... Mills' principle as a litmus test for this issue leads one to come
down on the side of legalization. Since Mills is concerned not with individual
rights, but with the consequences of one's actions on other people, the question
becomes: Is drug use an action that, although performed by an individual,
threatens the vital interests of others? Using the example of a casual,
responsible drug user who is a contributing (or non-detracting) member of

illegal methods to obtain his drugs. The very act of buying drugs is
intrinsically illegal and carries the threat of establishing a criminal ...

... who are not yet as understanding and mature will not feel secure in such a situation.
Even though I am a young adult and I am able to understand many things I personally feel that I would not be able to focus on my schoolwork if I knew that such violent crimes are happening everyday. That is mainly because I would never know when such a crime like that would happen in my school or somewhere nearby.
After reading many articles there was this one article that grabbed my attention right away. The title of the article was “Violence against U.S. kids is common”. Just imagine how many students must have read that heading and felt unsecure about themselves. When a pe ...

Serial Killers
... Books). You cannot
pick a sociopath out in a crowd because they look just like everybody else.
Actually, they act just like everybody else. You could have a neighbor that's a
serial killer and not even know it. Psychopaths are everyday people with
everyday lives, but they just have one problem, they have a need to kill.
What does a serial killer do? Serial killers usually have reasons for
killing, they just don't go out and kill anyone (the majority). A serial killer
will plan out where, when, why, and how before they actually kill. Ted Bundy
used to lure his victims with a phony cast on his leg. Others lured with the
promise of sex or porno movies. When ...
