Crime statistics

With use of statistics by Centers Of Disease Control and Prevention, Stobbe immediately uses the tactic of stating the position, then use statistics to strengthen their argument. ” Deaths from gunfire have been holding steady at about 32,000 a year, with nearly half of them occurring in the South” (Stobbe 1). What is being highly emphasized in the statistic that Stobbe is referring, 32,000 people are getting killed by gunfire, thus gets the audience engaged as it provides a given statistic to…

oversimplify, matters surrounding privacy can be color coded. There are some issues that are very black and white related to the need to “violate” privacy. However, there are also quite a few gray areas where more research needs to be conducted and statistics gathered to formulate guidelines to determine when it is indeed necessary. Privacy in general needs to be treated in a way that is different from other rights and based on the serious consequences of not revealing facts that would be…

The dataset also focuses on demographic and socio-economic variables. Some of the variables that are covered includes crime, family, mental health, high risk behaviors, racial identity, and the environment. For the whole dataset, the total sample size was 2,538 people. The number of males 1,141 while the number of females was 1,397. This meant that 45% were males and 55%…

In this case, given our data, it seems fairly certain that Talladega ignored the part of the 6th amendment that states, “the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed” (1). They ignored the fact that Swain had the right to an impartial jury and failed to provide him with one. They also ignored the 14th amendment that states, “nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal…

populations in prisons? First, statistics show that there is a higher concentration of minorities in lower income, largely populated deprived communities. The criminal activity is starting at such a young age and compounding from generation to generation. This causes these communities to display a higher ratio of criminals in its population. Therefore, there is more individuals going to jail or prison from these communities than any other. When you look at criminal statistics by race and…

present study employed secondary data provided by the Brantford Police Service and Statistics Canada to investigate the correlation between neighborhood disadvantage and the occurrence of violent crime through a testing of five hypotheses. The bivariate results showed evidence that socioeconomic disadvantage, family disruption and young population structure were positively related to the proliferation of violent crime. Though these findings were not exactly coincided with all the central…

causing the crime rate to decrease. Based on that argument I must argue that this not true, statistic that we will get into later have proven that this is not a deterrent to crime. Daily our prison population continues to grow soon, there will not be enough room for prisoners to go. This law has put a blanket sentence on people in specific crimes, crimes are crimes however, there are crimes committed without the intention of the crime being permitted, often people that do this heinous crime…

This is because crime is emotional and often time’s emotion outweighs other aspects (Mitchel 2004, pg 98-111). Because of this perception of crime, one does not often put his or herself in a position where he or she would be affected by crime. Hamilton County, Indiana in 2010 has a crime rate of 48.15 while Marion County in 2010 has a crime rate of 300.5 (FBI URC Statistics). When one lives in Hamilton Country and is used to a low crime rate, one’s perception of Marion County’s crime rate is…

critically discuss crime in terms of Emile Durkheim’s theory of crime and the issues of crime in our South African context. Crime is an act committed or omitted, in violation of public law, either forbidding or commanding it (law dictionary), in addition crime is the violation of norms a society formally enacts into criminal law (Macionis & Plummer, P 542, 2008). It will further more discuss the causations of crime in our current South African context and also discuss the relevance of crime in…

Regression Method Based on the data we collected, our expected regression equation is: Walmart revenue = β0 – β1CPI + β2CSI + β3ECOM – β4GAS + β5POP –β6INT – β7UNEMP + β8EARN Then we ran the regression on Minitab and got an actual regression equation. We used the method (i.e. five questions and nine problems) to evaluate the equation Minitab produced. For each of the nine problems, we ask five questions: What is the problem? How can I detect it? What are the consequences of the problem? What are…
