Chevar Mcnair In my opinion criminal procedures in our federal and state courts is very unorganized in a plethora of ways. First, everyone does not get the same type of punishment for the same crimes. The fact that there are crimes individuals commit that can be the same exact crime yet get complete different punishments conveys how precarious our criminal procedures in our courts are. I believe everything that is legal may not be ethical. There was once a time where slavery was legal,…

"A wise man once told me that smoke never dissipates. Rather it just spreads into a haze that the untrained eye cannot see. I surmise the smoke he mentioned was my mask. Yet when I look back, I see he had one too.” -Louis-Sanford Drake Thrown into the locker by Garrison-Harris Brook, the local bully, I had felt a thirst for something I never wanted on my hands. My eyes clouded with rage and as I got up, my hands balled into fists. GHB, as the rest of the school called him, didn’t know what was…

Back home, church was of vital to my family as my great grandfather started and still is the pastor of his own church, to which we all are apart of. So coming up here finding somewhere to go to church was a must and being apart of a community of people who shared a similar ideology as i did was important.

ambiguity as ‘perceived insufficiency of information regarding a particular stimulus or context’. Tolerance of ambiguity is defined as an inclination to comprehend contradictory, vague, unstructured, and deficient information (Adorno, Frenkel, Levinson & Sanford, 1950).

Therefore,…
