... that about 76% of the American public support the use of the death penalty as a deterrent, however that support drops to less than 9% when referring specifically to juveniles." (Kale 1) The mindset of the American public seems to be drastically different when dealing juveniles. And yet, with only 9% of the public supporting the policy, it remains in effect. Another strong outcry for the death penalty comes from those wanting restitution for the death of a loved one. It is the thought that a life is the ultimate price to pay which fuels this argument. The delineation between adults and juveniles is much less clear on this point. Age doesn't seem to make much of ...

... groups, especially those in his home state of Texas. George Bush Jr. is fluent in Spanish, therefore receiving a great deal of support from the Hispanic population in Texas. They see this as Bush making an effort to find out what points are important to them. The opinions of men and women can be in contrast to one another. Men tend to put their faith in a candidate who is solid and straightforward, while women seek a more compassionate candidate. In the 1996 presidential election, Bill Clinton focused part of his campaign on “soccer moms”. He stressed issues like women’s rights, child support, and sexual abuse and rape. The issues that Clinton raised were im ...

... such as music, dance, and so on, and they hardly provided sexual services. They are very different from what we call prostitutes today. However, as the time passed, non-religious related or non-royal prostitutes appeared. These prostitutes were the same as the ones today. They provided sexual services to customers and earned money (“Prostitution” 669). Now in America, there are almost 2 million prostitutes, and “prostitution is an estimated $20 billion industry” (Sion 1). Prostitution has a great classification according to Academic American Encyclopedia. Streetwalkers, who pick up customers on the streets, consist of “ the bottom of the hierarchy ...

... described as a sexual killer and has appeared on television as many or more times than some famous movie stars. He was a traveler, moved around a lot in order to avoid the authorities. Bundy is said to have enjoyed having "power" over his victims. Bundy was raised as a normal child, brought up by a wealthy mother and father. "Bundy blames the excessive amounts of porn for all of his murderous ways," states Ron Mitchell. He came from a good home, had a good upbringing, and cannot seem to pinpoint anything in particular that would lead to his murderous spree. The Picasso of the serial killing community, Ted was good-looking, charming, intelligent, self-assur ...

... parents think my music is "just noise," but as long as they don't have to hear it, they tolerate it. On the other hand, they notice some things that have changed a great deal since there generation. My parents have no problems with the way I dress, but they are very surprised at the large change that took place between our generations. Long hair, mopcuts, bellbottoms and more are the appearance my parents remember. I think, as a change for the better, my generation mostly keeps their hair neat and trim. We habitually wear loose-fitting, comfortable clothes, and many also wear a hat. These vast changes astonish my parents, but they do not see them as a step tow ...

... men, their integration into the military has also differed in several ways. Because of our society's fundamental belief that protecting the home and going to war are a man's work, men from minority groups have often been accepted more readily in the military than the women. Women have been viewed as outsiders in a male environment. Discrimination and harassment occurs for women because we are entering an all male dominated area. Some areas are still restricted because of it. For example: serving in direct combat capacities such as armor, infantry, and special forces-branches from which much of the senior leadership is drawn. "In 1994, the annual Navywide ...

... the Army, the Navy, the Air Force or the Marines. Americans display their patriotism for their country on the Fourth of July. All across the country, fireworks are seen and patriotic music is played on the radio. This is my favorite holiday because everyon comes together and celebrates. There are not may other countries who have as much pride in their country as the American people do. The biggest excitement of being an American comes from the joy of living in a democracy. We have the right to vote. This means that it is up to us to decide who becomes president of our country. We are very lucky to live in this country and enjoy all of its freedoms. I will a ...

... have been an amusing story because the other man laughed out loud and shook his head. Then the conversation returned to normal and they kept chatting for the next 45 minutes. I then turned my attention to another table at which two Caucasian women in their mid thirties were seated at. The women like the men were drinking coffee and talking. They were at the food fair more for a quick visit than to eat while shopping. The women shared similar attributes, for example they both had short brown hair and wore dark clothing. One of the women seemed to dominant in most of the conversation. She was very expressive with her hand gesturing as well as her facial expressions ...

... see cohabiting as “anti-divorce” ( Parry 15 ). So, today peoples fear of divorce has lead them to see cohabitation as a “trial marriage” that will serve as protection from a marriage that will result in a divorce. People for cohabitation compare it to a new car, clothes or shoes. They ask the question, if you were going to buy a new car and you see that it looks good and has nice features but you do not know how well it drives are you going to test drive it before buying it? or, do you try on cloths and shoes before you buy them? Of course almost everyone would answer these questions yes, because too test drive a car or to try on some clothes or shoes before b ...

... type of discipline carries on to fear any consequence, criminal or not. Another reasons why crime among juveniles has gone up is the things children watch on Television. Although Television should be monitored, children still find a way to work their imagination by watching. All the trash that is seen on TV takes its toll on the minds of juveniles and causes them to want to be like everything they see on TV. For example, children watch Power Rangers and turn around and try to do the Karate they see on anyone they can. They feel they are doing no wrong since the characters on TV are being praised for doing it. The violence on a simple show like Power Rangers c ...
