on in much the same style as in the homeland. A boy sounding his horn as he passes through the city led the cattle in and out to pasture daily. Other animals, such as pigs and geese, roaming freely through the streets are a common sight. At night, watchmen patrol the neighborhoods, calling out the hour and sounding their alarms if they spot a fire or suspicious-looking character. Religion and education are very important to the colonists. The schoolmaster teaches not only reading, writing, and…

In the book “Watchmen” by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons, it forces the readers to focus on an aspect that they’d rather not think about: the hopelessness of it all. That, no matter what we do or what we say, it will not actually stop major disasters from happening. That, no matter how much love and hope strives to live in this world, it doesn’t always stay that way. For the book as a whole, one of the major themes that sticks out is how everything is hopeless and that there really is no use in…

the comic book industry it’s that they are gone. Imagining what could have happened if the comic book industry had crashed and went out of business. Watchmen was the one that truly started the mature comic book genre but it goes way back in the 70’s when Stan Lee wrote about the comic book, didn’t even care about the Comic Code Authority. But Watchmen did revolutionize the comic book genre, it’s still relevant to…

through their personal authority rather than by arresting (Galeota, 1968). Today police behave like watchmen by exercising a great deal of discretion and ignoring minor violations. Police particularly handle juveniles and traffic violations with discretion. The watchmen police use persuasion and threats when dealing with disruptive people instead of formal arrests (Dempsey & Forst, 2016). The watchmen style is mostly on order maintenance due to the police department focusing on keeping the…

with the night, which ironically will only prolong his depressive state. 5. Night in this poem represents darkness, loneliness, and unhappiness. Robert Frost is able to portray this message by using symbols such as the narrator passing “by the watchmen on his beat / and [dropping his eyes], unwilling to explain” (5-6). This experience shows that night represents depression and…

plays a vital role in “The Pardoner’s Tale” when the watchman unveils, “I’ll put my dagger through his back/ While you and he are struggling, as in game” (Chaucer 130). The audience learns in the next paragraph that the young man plans to kill the watchmen as well. Dramatic irony is extremely effective due to the fact that the audience knows that all three men will die while no one gets the gold. This further proves that greed is evil, and that no one is safe from it. Chaucer uses three types of…

Anastasio Hernandez Rojas Case Starting in the colonial era, America became a nation of immigrants. In 1904, watchmen, Border Patrol Agents now days, would patrol the United States border to avoid the illegal entry of immigrants. However, their jobs were not as constant. Watchmen would only patrol when there was enough money to pay for their services. Now days, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s primary mission is to protect America’s borders at all times from the illegal entry of…

Wilson found in a study that public expectations affect the different departments for different styles of policing. He described three different types of policing: watchmen, legalistic, and service. The watchmen style is usually focused on maintenance and is informal. As long as there is order, the police ignore minor violations and focus on arrests of blatant crimes and when there is no order or can’t be maintained. Usually those in the…

Criminal Justice/ Law Enforcement Many people question what it takes to get into a career or what you need. Sometimes when you're not sure about what career path you want to take you want to do a little searching. At times when we're doing this we don't even know exactly what type of question to ask. Everything depends on the career you want to take. For example, if you are looking into the law enforcement field you could ask where did all the laws come from? How did we come up with a…
