Inconsistencies in the Justice System Why does the justice system have different penalties for the same crime? Why should money be allowed to persuade the severity of the punishment? Both of these questions have a lot to do with the inconsistencies of the courts and the questioning of their decisions.

It has shown me how I could do a lot even when i’m faced with negative things surrounding me and all I have to do is keep…

The relationship between the American Colonies and Great Britain were changed economically and politically after the seven years’ war (1756-1763). The conclusion of the war led to more events that began with The British Empire restriction on the expansion on settlings of colonists towards the states that were abandoned by the French colonies.

our society and has happened over the past year or so and how that has to played into this theory. The second is how Americans label people when yes, they have committed a crime, but even if it wasn’t a significant crime, they are still considered a “criminal” within our society. The first thing that comes to my mind are the shootings that white cops have done on African American men particularly as of late through media, Facebook, and just the news.

The Issue Of Racism “You’re a terrorist!”, is something that has been said to me many times to me throughout my life. “I can’t breathe!”, said a black man in New York with asthma who was put in a chokehold and killed by police even though he said it repetitively. A black male was shot and killed by a police officer while unarmed and surrendering in Ferguson. A french magazine group was killed for making fun of a holy figure of Muslims on their magazine cover. An unarmed colored male was shot…

strategy of tone to his advantage by creating a sense of patriotism for this great nation that Republicans and Democrats need to work together to improve. He went further to explain that “It’s going to require all of us doing what’s right for the American people” (Obama, 2010, ln. 56) creating this sense that they have to all unite because nothing can be fixed if everyone does not actively come together. This immense sense of patriotism helped turn the Republicans’ minds away from which…
