On September 11, 2001 2,996 people died with over 6,000 people injured. Many people including myself believe the attacks were premeditated with U.S. intelligence involved. While some may argue that the Government would not purposely destroythe twin towers, there is a possibility that it was not planned by the Government but by a U.S. citizen. I believe someone from the U.S. planned the 9/11 attacks on purpose because there was almost 700 million dollars of gold missing, the owner got a hefty…

My dad was impatiently waiting ready to take her for a stroll; it took quite a long time to feed her with all the…

“There was no celebrating. I crossed the finish line and heard the bang. It’s taken a while to sink in. I’ll never understand how someone could do something like this.” (Various, “The Shoes We Wore”) It took only an instant for what should have been a moment of joy and hope to become a time of distress and chaos.

They believe that acts of moral violations by any of their adversaries will constitute the violence they shed in search of a higher ethical order.

Numerous studies have been carried out on the various factors of Hate crimes, focusing on different aspects such as, minority groups, social domains, and ability/inability in reporting hate crimes and case outcomes.
