On the other hand, a father may tell his young son to beat up the school bully who is picking on him. As a result, the boy is taught to deal with the situation by using violence.

McDougall defines the word instinct as “an inherited or innate psycho-physical disposition which determines its possessor to perceive, and to pay attention to, objects of a certain class, to experienc .....

The campaign for women’s suffrage was a clear example of the rights expressed by the first amendment. It was won primarily through continuous picketing and .....

Where they would stay until they reach their eighteenth birthday, and what would they get? A ticket to a high security prison, full of rapists, pedaphiles and others of their kin, ready to further pervert them and make them more efficient and darken their souls, or rape, sodomise and kill them for being the new arrivals. We blame the gun, we blame society, we blame the parents of the child, who really deserves it? Who should th .....
