Setting Up A Dummy Corporation...
.... 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...
Is this method for acquiring material things legal? Hell no! But half the shit
Big Brother does to us everyday isn't legal either...Want to ride around town in
a big black imported car for free? How about a brand new Pentium computer for
the office? The kids want Mopeds? Nooooooo problem! Pay attention.

The Death Penalty
.... persons were under the death sentence in 36 states. The death penalty
should be moral because, " a life for a life." Is the death penalty immoral?
Life imprisonment without the possibility of parole is a realistic alternative
for the small number of offenders who are likely to be executed in any given
year. Justice does not demand death but justice does demand that murderers be
punished. If punishment is justifiable as for restoring justice and the moral
order, it does not necessarily follow that capitol punishment is moral. " The
death penalty only allows us to extend the pain. It allows us to continue to
blame one an .....

The Effects Of Race On Sentencing In Capital Punishment Cases
.... Gregg v. Georgia the total population of all 36 death rows has
grown as has the number of judicial controls used by each state. Of the 3,122
people on death row 41% are black while 48% are white (Gest, 1996, 41). This
figure may be acceptable at first glance but one must take into account the fact
that only 12% of the U.S. population is black (Smolowe, 1991, 68). Carolyn
Snurkowski of the Florida attorney generals office believes that the
disproportionate number of blacks on death row can be explained by the fact that,
“Many black murders result from barroom brawls that wouldn't call for the death
penalty, but many white mur .....

The Police Exception And The Domestic Abuse Law
.... officer is being done a great injustice and should be
allowed to continue his otherwise flawless career as an officer of the law.
Interesting.
One simple conviction could ruin the lives of every cop in the country. Hard
working, one-time offensive policemen and women would be barred from police work
forever. Many people think that this is entirely too harsh for a poke in the
chest or a slap to the face of a spouse. Many people think that the law was
produced in haste and that the solution is simple-make the judgement of each
officer's career jurisdictional and personalize each case. Interesting.
Finally, some people believ .....

The Positive And Negative Effects Of DNA Profiling
.... rape
cases, where the father or the assailant could be identified. However, despite
its growing number of utilizations, DNA profiling is extremely hazardous when
results are inaccurate or used to discriminate.
The frequency of genetic testing in criminal investigations (more than
1,000 in the U.S. since 1987) has been increasing dramatically despite the
inconclusive testing by the scientific community in many aspects of forensic
identification. A correlation between DNA patterns taken from a crime scene and
taken from the suspect has often been enough to charge a person with the offense
in spite of proof that some procedures f .....

White Collar Crime Vs. Street Crime
.... judges, and definitely more
jails and prisons. There are shows, such as "Cops," that shows America the
"truth" about crime in the US. All the attention is given to street crime.
Unless it is a huge scandal, you will seldom hear of white collar crime through
the media. When white collar crime is reported, it gets little publicity
compared to a gang shoot-out that killed a mother and her three kids. There is
a reason for this. Since violent street crime is predominantly an urban problem,
there is no better scapegoat than the lower class that live in these inner-city
communities. Since urban communities are concentrated with peo .....

The Importance Of Plea Bargaining In Criminal Trials
.... less than perfect world, plea bargaining is easily the lesser of the evils.
I agree with the definitions submitted by the affirmative speaker.
Americans have always emphasized getting a job done. We place a great
deal of value on efficiency and industry. The government is expected to run
with efficiency and operate with the good of the people in mind. Every aspect
of our lives is governed by this utilitarian value. Why do we place such
importance on efficiency? Because without it nothing would ever get done. If
we all constantly obsessed over minute details and unrealistic ideals we would
live in poverty. In the real wo .....

Young Offenders
.... was that when the police arrived he told them that they could
not touch him. Even though he did committee the crime and he should have been
charged but sadly e was right. This young offenders knows that the young
offenders act is a joke and that is why he committed the crime. He could care
less about what he did.
Another case talking about the young offenders act is the James Bulger. “
Had the murder of toddler James Bulger occurred in Canada, his killer would
never been charged. Under the Canadian law, no child under the age of 12 can be
charged with any criminal act, no matter how odious.” This was a cases which
created a lo .....

Handgun Control In The United States
.... incidents. All
across America, the number of kids using- and being harmed by-guns is rising at
an alarming rate. According to the U.S. Department of Justice, more than 27,000
youths between 12 and 15 were handgun victims in 1985, up from an average of
16,500 for each of the previous years (Stanza 19). The increase in gun use
often stems from urban crack trade. Many crack gangs have more firepower than
a small police department. Whatever the cause, authorities are finding the use
of handguns by youngsters an extremely diff-icult trend to stop ( Stanza 19).
As long as pistols are as easily accessible as candy, people of all a .....

An Argument For The Legalization Of Drugs, Based On John Stuart Mills' "Revised Harm Principle"
.... to
illegal methods to obtain his drugs. The very act of buying drugs is
intrinsically illegal and carries the threat of establishing a criminal record
for the buyer. This can have a devastating effect on his family, his lifestyle,
and his career. The effects on society as a whole include more crowded jail
cells (prompting politicians to demand more jails be built), higher taxes to
support these jails, and the loss, or at least diminution, of a productive
citizen. In order to buy drugs illegally, the user may be forced to expose
himself to the fringes of the criminal world--something he would never do under
any other circumst .....

DNA And Crime
.... about a person for
Forensic Science purposes, blood is the most useful source of inherited traits.
If the DNA fingerprints produced from two different samples match, the two
samples probably came from the same person.
Here are some examples of court cases where DNA plays an important roll
in the outcome of the trial.
Hauppauge N.Y.: After 11 years in prison for rape Kerry Kotler cried tears
of joy becoming one of the first convicts in the United States to be freed by
DNA technology. At a banquet held for Kotler he received a standing ovation from
the guest’s of his lawyer, Barry Schech and Peter Neufeld, who would later .....

Abortion: Life Or Death Who Chooses?
.... passion to overide their
knowledge, can deny it: only those who are irrational or ignorant of
science, doubt that when a human sperm fertilizes a human ovum a new human
being is created. A new human being who carries genes in its cells that
make that human being uniquely different from any and other human being
and yet, undeniably a member, as we all are, of the great human family.
All the fetus needs to grow into a babe, a child, an old man, is time,
nutrition and a suitable environment. It is determined at that very moment
of conception whether the baby will be a boy or a girl; which of his
parents he will look like; what .....
