Casey Martin is an example of brute luck, he was born unintentionally with Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome. Dworkin would agree and accept Casey’s proposal because he believe those affected by brute luck should be compensated for their disadvantages. I believe that Casey should be able to compete in competitions because everybody should be able to compete; however, by letting him use carts will create inequality and unfairness to other competitors. Rules should also be respected by competitors and walking is one of many in golf, if Casey does not qualify and pass all the rules, I think he is failing the requirement to compete. Some may believe that it is right and equal for Casey to have the ability to use cart in tournaments…

The murder case of Hae Min Lee is full of many holes and facts that don’t match up. That’s what makes the case intriguing, a person could take either side. Who is the real killer though? Adnan is rightfully innocent due to Jay’s testimony, the lack of evidence in Jay’s account, and contamination of evidence by the police in the investigation. Hae’s body was linked to the back of her car with no supporting physical evidence to Adnan, yet he was still accused.…
Slavery was a big issue in the 1800’s. While the United States was split in two between the North and the South, there were states and territories that were designated for slaves and states and territories that were for slaves that wanted freedom. If a slave was to actually make it into one of these “free” states, they were basically considered free unless they were captured or forced back to the slave owner they belonged to. However, while the slaves who made it to these distinct areas were “free”, there were instances where that was simply not the case. One instance that is more prevalent than the others was the case of Dred Scott.…
