Gun Control
Words: 1248 - Pages: 5.... is keeping guns available too dangerous to be
continued? If so, how can we justify taking away one of the most
basic and sacred rights that has been held throughout the ages? If we do
this, are we any better than our previous rulers who used control as an
excuse for oppression?
The opposition of gun rights say that the amendment states that The

alternative is a suitable substitute for the death penalty. But the
standard of judgment is whether the punishment fits the .....

Censorship: Freedom Or Suppression ?
Words: 803 - Pages: 3.... of this is the Communication Decency
Act of 1996(Located in the Telecommunications Act Of 1996). This act more or
less states that the Internet should be censored and be given restrictions. The
first issue this brings up is who owns the Internet. No one really owns it
because it is really thousands of computer networked together. The main backbone
of the Internet was originally made up of government funded universities and
other government institutions. However that is no longer the case. Now the
majority of the Internet is run and operated by independent services and
everyday citizens. The Internet is a modern day symbol of the freedom .....

Opponents of gun control, including the National Rifle Association, better known as the NRA, argue that the "right To bear arms" is guaranteed in the second amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America and licensing restrictions penalize law-abiding citizens while in no way preventing criminal use of handguns. It is also argued that by making it difficult for guns to be bought and registered for the American public there is a threat to the personal safety of American families everywhere.

Money is an illusion. Power is an illusion. Both are projected by cunning and
affluent people and organizations to get what they want. And, if they can't pay
for it, they go bankrupt or renegotiate. Why should they have all that luxury
and not us? Hell, I can default on a loan as well as any of them!
Almost every company in America will ship you goods on credit if you project the
right image, ask the right questions and have the right answers...People will
kiss your ass if they think you have great wealth. The best resturants will seat
you "up front" if they think "you're a player". Why not? Sounds good to me...

When Society Kills
Words: 886 - Pages: 4.... These costs are not the result of frivolous appeals but rather the
result of Constitutionally mandated safeguards that can be summarized as
follows:
Juries must be given clear guidelines on sentencing, which result

The Death Penalty Should Continue To Be Used In The U.S.
Words: 1290 - Pages: 5.... questioning if capital
punishment is really the answer to solving the problem of crime. The death
penalty sh ould beallowed because it is not inhumane but rather fair and it's
continued use will end up helping out society in many ways.
Many people who oppose the death penalty say it is inhumane and unfair.
These people who oppose it say that all human life has the right to be respected.
All human life does have the right to be respected but there is a point when
that right can be lost, if someone takes the life of another human being then
they have given up that right. Another claim the opposers to the death penalty
make is that the .....
