Homosexual Education
Number of words: 1337 | Number of pages: 5.... about homosexual lifestyles. They also want to back hiring preferences for sexual minorities ( Clinton's homosexual agenda 2). There is also a school in New York City that have told their students they must come to an assembly for two days in a row to talk about how normal homosexuality is, and how indecent, undemocratic, and homophobic it is to have any negative views of such sexual functioning (Socarides 3). It is hard for me to accept this type of teaching in the public school. When it comes to learning about homosexual lifestyles, I believe a child should be aware that these types of people are in the world, but I would never c .....

Drug And Alcohol Abuse
Number of words: 1004 | Number of pages: 4.... obtainable. The state of Missouri should lower the cost of tuition in its colleges and universities and raise the amount of state money in the areas of financial aid, grants and scholarships. While this measure will contribute to a loss of state money, I believe that it will also save money by keeping potential drug manufacturers out of the jail cells and in the classrooms.

America: The Modern Day Athens
Number of words: 541 | Number of pages: 2.... is an example of a direct democracy. A point should be made here that
Athens, for all its noble ideas about men being able to govern themselves,
excluded most of the people that lived within its cities walls. Women, for
example had no say in government. They were subjected to running the homes,
raising children, and tending to the needs of their husbands. Slavery, which
existed in Athens, also caused a blot on the noble experiment of democracy.
Slaves had no vote, no participation in government, and no recourse from a cruel
master.
Athenian government relied upon direct democracy to raise taxes, make laws,
and gather arm .....

Capital Punishment History
Number of words: 835 | Number of pages: 4.... of
these crimes. These crimes, even today, are still viewed as
violent and should be punished with the highest degree of
discipline available to achieve justice.
After much public pressure, capital punishment was suspended
on a trial run in 1967. This proved to be ineffective, because

criminals from death to life sentences, hence the law was not
being followed and justice was not being served. This soon was
followed with ca .....

Affirmative action is important especially in the work force.
