Crack cocaine

nation’s backdoor, illegal immigrants invade the U.S. in billions, like a herd of untamed beasts, ready to devour the jobs, homes, and families of legal American citizens. As they enter our amazing nation, the aliens lug millions of kilos of cocaine, heroin, and crack each year through our innocent streets. Once they colonize our humble towns, their gangs and criminals kill and steal from every man, woman, and child that crosses their path. Across the U.S.A., millions…

I chose to do my essay on the sentencing some people are given because some people do need to realize just how small minded our country is. I know some people deserve the sentencing they get but let’s face it; some of the sentencing for these convictions is ridiculous. Something more serious, someone more harmful could be on the loose or given a small amount of time. Not everybody will agree with this paper but I can guarantee they will when it comes to their own loved ones. Nobody looks at…

People go through their lives every single day without batting an eye at what is happening behind the scenes. Every government has done something wrong, something atrocious, or even something just plain ridiculous. When people think of a conspiracy they probably go straight for something involving the Nazis or Hitler, but did you know there are conspiracies involving the very United States of America? There are plenty of truths in those conspiracies as well and many of them are more…

Since the early 1960’s, athletes have used anabolic steroids to enhance their performance, mixing substances such as heroin and cocaine creating a drug named a “Speedball” (Denham 56). In the US heroin and cocaine are illegal due to the effect these drugs could have on a person 's health, but athletes were combining these two drugs just so they would be able magnify their skills within the sport they play.

In "There Is No Evidence of Racial Discrimination in the Criminal Justice System," (Beaver et al, 2013), the author, John Perazzo argues that Barack Obama is wrong about the perspective that there's racial discrimination on the criminal justice system. According to Sternes, (September 12, 2016), every human being has to have equal justice perspective that means everyone has the same rights just as everyone does as a citizen of a nation. The discussion of equal justice perspective focuses on…

time theft by not properly paying workers for the time that they have put into their work, although, employees that “ exhibit ” “ time theft” are the only ones punished. Companies should also actively be punished for time theft if they are going to crack down so harshly on the employees. The crackdown on time theft has also lowered the morale of the employees, because they can't even catch a bathroom break or get too long of a lunch. The crackdown also keeps the employees paranoid about going to…

Each day there is a new headline in the news highlighting another unjust death in conjunction with police officers in America. We observe it, we hear it, and even after much debate, it doesn’t change. Many in America continue to die and or are subjected to brutality at the hands of police for minimal reasons. Whether the reasoning is racism, sexism, classism or gaps in our own justice system that allows this to be acceptable our rights continue to be diminished and police officers continue to…

completely different from mine. My parents were growing up around the 1980’s in, and New York City experienced 1,814, homicides during the year of 1980.

Upper Manhattan is mostly populated by Dominican people; these immigrants were willing to do anything and…

Having considered how the judicial system isn’t exactly fair in their treatment of races that are non-white, the statistics that are present is not surprising. When examing the statistics one can see how it can align with the belief of mass incarceration and racial inequality. The statistics are clearly represented by the author of the article “Post-Racial Racism: Racial Stratification and Mass Incarceration in the Age of Obama”, Ian F. Haney Lopez who claims that race in the United States…
