.... here. For example, New York State has a “zero tolerance” policy for murderers. Since this policy went into effect, the murder rate has been cut in half. This is because the killer knows he himself will be killed if he committs the crime. Also, no one has been put to death in New York State since 1976. This proves that the death penalty can help prevent murders, and kill the murderers. It also proves that just because a state has the death penalty, people don’t get executed every other day. Another reason killers should be dealt with by the death penalty is money. It costs $20,000 a year for a murderer to live in jai .....

.... say he's already being punished. However the states don't keep all murders in jail forever. Some of these criminals will get out and will probably start all over again. Its not that they have to kill, but they have a problem. Problem or no problem the states just can't let a killer get away with it. These criminals are taking an innocent persons life and they get to live. They also get a place to live, free food and don't have to pay for nothing. They get to kick back while another family suffers for it. If the don't care about killing somebody they won't mind if you execute them or else they wounldn't have done it. R .....

.... the room. The time has come, you raise from the side of your bed, instinctively assuming a marksman's pose and fire just as the intruder is raising his weapon. He flies back against the wall and slumps into a lifeless pile. You then proceed to call 911. Now, that is not an uncommon scenario in the present state of society. Now what I ask you to picture is that same scenario, but this time only the intruder has a weapon because all guns have been outlawed and the criminal is the only person who can get their hands on them. It's a rather scary thought, isn't it. But that is exactly what some people want. They want a ban on .....

.... A few states even require that all persons possessing guns must have a license to do so, even in their homes. Some states don't ban guns from addicts. This is a problem. Gun concelation isn't the same in each state. Also it is commonly unlawful to fire a gun within city limits or in other congested urban areas. These are some of the common laws that most states have. Guns are a form of power. Many individuals, ‘including criminals' feel powerful when carrying a gun. Half of the households in the United States possess a gun. Criminals use guns for satisfaction. For example, to obtain sexual gratifaction in a rape or money in .....

.... criminal use of handguns. It is also argued that by making it difficult for guns to be bought and registered for the American public there is a threat to the personal safety of American families everywhere. However controlling the sale and distribution of firearms is necessary because of the homicide rate involving guns. In 1988 there were 9000 handgun related murders in America. Metropolitan centers and some suburban communities of America are setting new records for homicides by handguns. Larger Metropolitan centers have ten times the murder rate of all Western Europe. For example in Washington,D.C. there was an estimated .....

.... more samurai than shaman. Even in his pre-leadership days, Trudeau's love of trial by combat was predominant. Mackenzie King would have never touched the unholy trinity of divorce, abortion and homosexuality: each one of these issues is a sleeping dog best left to lie; each could only infuriate conservative Canada from coast to coast. Since King dared not touch them seriatim he certainly would not have touched them together-in an omnibus bill. This, Trudeau did joyously. The myths-makers have it at this was Trudeau's first deliberated joust, the kingship being the final prize. But Trudeau had no leadership aspirations .....

.... Jamestown in 1611 for use in making rope. In order to keep a constant supply of hemp available, a law was passed in Massachusetts in 1639, requiring every household to plant hemp seed. In Maryland, Virginia, and Pennsylvania, hemp was even used as a monetary unit. Thomas Jefferson's draft of the Declaration of Independence, released by the Continental Congress on July 4, 1776, was written on paper made from hemp (Whole Earth Review 46). And the 49ers washed gold from California creeks in Levi's made from hemp. In 1937, the United States government passed the Marijuana Tax Act which prohibited the use of marijuana as an into .....

.... 20 years, each succeeding president continued to escalate the drug war. This policy has obviously done nothing to stop the recreational use of drugs in this country; on the contrary it is causing great harm. When most people imagine the legalization of marijuana, they fear a marijuana free-for-all with everybody constantly getting high. Legalization would include a law passed by Congress allowing the government to control the content, quality, and distribution of marijuana. The laws would be similar to the current laws regulating alcohol, including laws governing age, limits for driving, and distribution (“Bring” 13). T .....

A police officer starts their career with on the job training and then they move on to become a constable where they must be able to relocate to any part of the country where they are positioned. In order for an officer to advance tier career they may have to switch divisions where their careers may excel.

.... of the segregation complained of, deprived of the equal protection of the laws guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment.” The Supreme Court’s decision that separate but equal is not equal began the desegregation of public schools. The decision resulted in forced busing of students. Some students now have to travel extremely far so that schools meet their quota of African American students. This is reason that some people, including some African Americans, wonder why such a decision is still in effect. These people believe that it is no longer necessary and that it is possible for their to be “separate but equal schools .....
