.... age capable of committing such heinous crimes and understanding why they committed the crime? These young people don't have the mental capacity to distinguish between right and wrong. Some of these young people haven't even attended school, and here they are, being tried as adults. A person's childhood is where one learns about life. One learns right from wrong, good from evil, and how to control one's emotions. What would happen if the courts took away this precious learning time from a youth? The youth wouldn't learn exactly why he was imprisoned. His morals would never be formed correctly because he would never be able to learn society's mo .....

.... died of leukemia, drove authorities into investigating the water, which started the case against carelessness by big business companies. Finally, in 1979, two wells supplying drinking water to Woburn were shut down because health officials from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) thought they might have been contaminated by industrial wastes. The two main defendants were the W.R. Grace corporation, a chemical and manufacturing giant that built stainless steel equipment at a plant in Woburn, and Beatrice Foods, another mega-corporation, which operated a tannery there. Toxic chemicals from these operations, many thought, had leaked in an .....

.... on what is or isn't decent. The most recent example of this is the Communication Decency Act of 1996(Located in the Telecommunications Act Of 1996). This act more or less states that the Internet should be censored and be given restrictions. The first issue this brings up is who owns the Internet. No one really owns it because it is really thousands of computer networked together. The main backbone of the Internet was originally made up of government funded universities and other government institutions. However that is no longer the case. Now the majority of the Internet is run and operated by independent services and everyday citizens. The Intern .....

.... It encompasses history, legislation, and the benefits as well as the harms of the plant itself. Marijuana is the name of the plant known to botanists as Cannabis Sativa. Other names for the plant exist throughout the world. In Africa, Marijuana is known as "dagga", in China as "ma", in Northern Europe as "hemp" and in the United States as either "pot", "buds", "reefer", "weed" or the more direct, "smoke". Marijuana goes back over five thousand years. It is one of the oldest agricultural commodities not grown for food. Hemp, first cultivated in China as early as 2800 B.C., soon stretched to central Asia where it spread like milkweed or thistl .....

.... preserve as many lives as possible, Therefore, the death of one, who has murdered many, will spare the useless and countless deaths of others. God's command to preserve life seems much more important here than the preservation of criminals. Capital punishment is never used legitimately in the New Testament. Jesus' constant preaching of love and forgiveness shows his contempt for the harming of others. One example of love is found in John 15:17 “This is my command: Love each other.� An example of forgiveness is Matthew 6:14 “For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.� Jesus practiced w .....

.... out of hatred for the alterations. It was almost as if he had been robbed, or if his main ideal was faced in front of a “firing range�. He does not see it as his own failure at all. He does realize the mistake in allowing Keating to propose the project, but he was ignorant to the fact that proposing is just as important as the unique design of the building. In other words, he did not realize that allowing Keating to propose the project to be a threat to his individualistic ideals. Roark’s unnoticed failure greatly changes the logic of his testimony. He explains how the great scientists and thinkers were condemned for their new ideas. He .....

.... Criminal sentencing is a large and pivotal part of the American legal system, and, although equality in all aspects of a criminal trial is the central ideal, research shows that the system falls short of this. Nagel and Weitzman (1972) summarized research by various investigators. When data was compiled on criminal cases, a clear discrimination was found in favor of women. It was found that women were awarded lesser sentences than their male counterparts for the same crimes; these differences were found for both larceny and felony cases. The leniency given to women was found to be similar to that of minors, both male and female. Nagel .....

.... The prevailing thought is that imposition of the death penalty will act to dissuade other criminals from committing violent acts. Numerous studies have been created attempting to prove this belief; however, “[a]ll the evidence taken together makes it hard to be confident that capital punishment deters more than long prison terms do.�(Cavanagh 4) Going ever farther, Bryan Stevenson, the executive director of the Montgomery based Equal Justice Initiative, has stated that “…people are increasingly realizing that the more we resort to killing as a legitimate response to our frustration and anger with violence, the more violent our socie .....

.... of firearms seems to me a most malicious and reckless deed, that instead of safeguarding and protecting, endangers more the entire society. The Government justified this act by saying that it would protect the innocent citizens. But it failed to even entertain the notion that the enactment of this law would come to protect the right of those who violate the rights of others. It has never occurred to authorities that vicious criminals, in spite of this legislation, will still manage somehow to get the firearms. Innocent people, however, will suffer, because they will be less likely to obtain handguns in order to protect themselves and their families. .....

.... and 39% oppose. In 1988 there were 79% favor and 16% oppose. Illinois have made 9 executions from 172 in the death-row. The state with the biggest number of executions is Texas. From448 in the death-row there were 150 executions since 1976. There is Five methods of execution. The most humane method is lethal injection, then electrocution, the gas chamber, firing sqad, and hanging. Lethal injection is more humane because is less painful than others. A Leuther from FRED A. LEUTHER ASSOCIATES INC. who is specialized in the manufacture and restoration of electric chairs, gallows, gas chambers, and lethal injection system, said that in the future .....
