.... With this law, this officer would not be allowed to continue his services for his county and his fellow police officers. Many people feel that this officer is being done a great injustice and should be allowed to continue his otherwise flawless career as an officer of the law. Interesting. One simple conviction could ruin the lives of every cop in the country. Hard working, one-time offensive policemen and women would be barred from police work forever. Many people think that this is entirely too harsh for a poke in the chest or a slap to the face of a spouse. Many people think that t .....

.... recent frenzy to get all the weapons and technology available is for them to be able to elevate themselves to the level of a major world power. As stated by Mao Zedong, “The atomic bomb is not so big, but if you do not have it, you are not counted. OK, let’s make some such bombs”(Huaqui). China’s nuclear testing site is considered to be the world’s largest at over 100,00 square kilometers, capable of handling underground, atmospheric and live missile tests. With this capability, it is interesting to see that as of 1995, China only conducted 41 tests starting in 1964, as .....

.... of the 1800's. There were just as many methods used to execute wrong-doers as there were crimes. Some of the techniques used included beheading, stoning, drowning, hanging, crucifying, and burying people alive. Also used were many nontraditional forms of execution. One type of execution utilized elephants to crush the criminal's head on a stone block. As times changed, so did the death penalty. Laws aimed at abolishing the death penalty began to evolve at the turn of the century. Even with the changes made, the effectiveness of capital punishment stayed right on track. The crim .....

.... often do you see reports of violent crime on television ? " 68 % replied " almost every day ". Although the media have played an important role in raising the public's awareness of lawlessness, crime in America is far from a media - created phenomenon. Government statistics support the image of a nation which has overwhelmingly lost the war against crime. For instance, in 1960 there were 161 reported violent crimes per 100,000 people By 1992, the figure had jumped to 758 per 100,000 -- a rise of over 350 %. More and more people today are starting to think that something is t .....

.... dislike the Jews because of their unsubstantiated link to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Those of Arab descent also dislike Jews because of religious reasons and because of the founding of the state of Israel. It would be reasonable to say that Anti-Semitism is passed down from parents to their children. Although, parents may not teach the hatred of Jews, there is certainly some dislike of Jews expressed to their children. Just a few words like " I hate those greedy Jews" may not seem too significant, but to an impressionable child it can have a crude effect. Every once and a while you hear .....

.... that running background checks would take valuable time away from other law-enforcement duties. This is a valid argument in less densely populated areas of the country where doing checks would bring manpower to a below minimum level. This argument is not valid for large cities, however, because it is needed more there than anywhere else in the country. In large cities there are many more police officers and they can afford to put a few on duty doing these checks. In large cities you can easily blend in because of its size. Places like Montana and Arizona don't necessarily need to r .....

.... have no voice, and are merely pawns in some larger game, and there are those others who support what is known as the pluralist theory. Pluralism suggests that policy decisions are not the result of an individual citizen's vote (or a vote of a population of citizens) but instead the result of the interaction and competition of various interest groups. This theory, it can be argued, is the most descriptive of America as we know it. There are several examples on which to draw in order to support this theory. In the April 8th issue of Time Magazine1, there appears an article titled "The New Par .....

.... convicted of aggravated battery, which carries a two year maximum sentence. The Wisconsin jury, however, found that because Mitchell selected his victim based on race, the penalty enhancement law allowed Mitchell to be sentenced to up to seven years. The jury sentenced Mitchell to four years, twice the maximum for the crime he committed without the penalty enhancement law. The U.S. Supreme Court¹s ruling was faulty, and defied a number of precedents. The Wisconsin law is unconstitutional, and is essentially unenforceable. This paper primarily focuses on the constitutional arguments against .....

.... Kennedy to decide what to do. Kennedy flatly refused the air-force proposals for bombing strikes on the missile launching sites, but he did decide to set up a navel blockade around Cuba to prevent the ingress of more missiles. It was announced by Kennedy that any attack on the United States from Cuba would be accepted as an attack from the Soviet Union which would trigger nuclear retaliation against Russia's heartland. Khrushchev, the Soviet in charge of the mission, also announced that seizing or sinking a Russian ship on the high seas would be regarded as an act of war by the Krem .....

.... and expansionism any were in the world. 3 The soviets have been, up until 1990, the U.S's defacto enemies. There goal was too destroy democracy and imposing communism. 4 This is way it was though to be inevitable for a nuclear war with the soviets. "The dream of a non nuclear world is a great and notable one, how ever for the foreseeable future it is unattainable in actuality and unwise in theory." 5 Because of this harsh the United States is left with a problem; How can we beet this so called inevitability? The answer is: space based defense weapons. The program, brought forth by the .....
