Laws have been passed in many countries in order to make animal testing more ‘humane’ but many argue that the benefit to humans is not worth the torture to these defenseless animals.

In these shows, the bad guy is always caught and justice is served. All of which happens in a matter of an hour. So, is criminal profiling actually this accurate? Does it have any scientific basis? What about the people who fit the profile, but are innocent, how does it affect them? This…

It was Christmas day in the year 2003, in cold Chicago, Illinois. A man robbed a local home. As a result, the victim of the house took a gun and shot the burglar. The criminal was taken to a hospital to be taken care of, while the owner faced charges and prosecutions since the town had a gun ordinance ban.
