One day, a usually… average person named Bertram was just leaving work. Bertram is 29 years old with no relationship and no kids. He works as an accountant for a big business. As most stereotypes say about accountants, he is good at his job, but hates it. The only reason he does this is for money. Although he may seem average he’s not. He is telepathic and telekinetic.

Peter Ludlow, the New York Times article author, expresses his uncertainty on living in a “country that would look more like North Korea than America.” The reason why Ludlow would express such a statement is that America is way too quick to trade freedom for the illusion of security. Then as well, what is known as the bloodcurdling terrorists cannot take away public freedoms nor can they reduce public liberties. Yet, the public allows the government to do the terrorists’ job which causes the…

Homeland security is important especially after 9/11 when America was under attack by terrorist and left millions of Americans afraid to go to the airport. The American government knew that it had to protect its citizens so it created the patriot act, which protected against terrorism and domestic and foreign affairs. Homeland security…

The most memorable terrorist attack from 2001 to 2015 was on the World Trade Center and Pentagon on September 11, 2001 (Paul, Dorin, Bugnar, and Mester 6). About three-thousand innocent people lost their lives during this violent attack (“Department of Government and Justice Studies”). This important event in American History should be remembered to hopefully prevent it from ever happening again. As terrorism changed from the 1980s to today, so did the types of people who became terrorists…

1) Describe some of the issues associated with defining and applying the concept of state terrorism. State terrorism is hard to define as the definition is blurry, and the concept is vague. An issue that is associated with it is the definition. State terrorism could either mean that the state harbours terrorists, or that it funds terrorists. Because of this, it is hard to define what state terrorism really is and which classifications are needed to apply this concept. Another issue to do with…

That hypothetical date is based upon the article which was printed in the Daily Gazette for Middlesbrough on 06 April 1894. The article reported the burglary of John W. Mitchell’s house where he accused the Cooks of the intrusion and in addition to that assessed the damage to his property inflicted by the notorious family. It is believed that later on the photograph was included…

Some, including Jaime Mayerfield in his publication “In Defense of the Absolute Prohibition of Torture”, argue that torture is never permissible and that there are no conditions under which torture can be justified. Others, like Charles Krauthammer in his article “The Truth about Torture,” say that the use of these ‘enhanced interrogation…

There are many different outcomes of terrorist incidents that we have covered throughout this course. Some of the obvious ones include; structural damage, loss of life, economic impact, and fear throughout the community. However, one of the less obvious outcomes of a terrorist incident is the difficulty in planning for, responding to, and managing the complexity of a terrorist incident. If a terrorist incident occurs and the community is not prepared, there will be a need for developing an…
