President John Fitzgerald Kennedy was assassinated on Friday, November 22nd 1963 at 12:30 p.m in the Dealey Plaza, Dallas, Texas. John Kennedy had many people with reason to kill him and in the leading six months to his death he received over 400 threats, a few of which were serious enough to change his security routine. Ultimately president Kennedy was shot in the head and throat with three bullets in his open topped car by Lee Harvey Oswald but the question that still remains today is who hired Oswald to kill JFK. The Mafia John Fitzgerald Kennedy murder may have been organized by the new Orleans mafia boss Carlos Marcello. The motive would be that despite the mafia’s major role in Kennedy getting elected, the president had Marcello deported just after he entered into office.
MPs, bereaved parents, health professionals and junkies themselves say radical measure are needed to stamp out the city’s problem – the worst in Europe. Drugs deaths have risen sharply in recent years. In 1992, 43 young Glaswegians died; last year, the figure was 97 out of total of around 140 north of the border. In a city of 650,000 people the rate is worryingly high. Compared to the rest of Britain, it is shocking.
A war between the two immediately broke out. In 1964, the USA entered the Vietnam War. The inconclusive war in Vietnam cost many American and Vietnamese lives, devastated the country, and achieved nothing but misery for anyone caught up in it; including the Cambodians. Cambodia had become part of the Vietnam battlefield. During the next four years, American B-52 bombers, using napalm and cluster-bombs, killed up to 750,000 Cambodians in their effort to destroy North Vietnamese supply lines.
Hurricane Sandy destroyed millions of homes, brought a bunch of sand onto the roads, and killed 209 people. Sandy caused $52.4 billion in damages. Another hurricane that has hit the US is Hurricane Katrina. Hurricane Katrina caused subsequent floods and caused $81 billion in damaged. Katrina also killed at least 1,833 people in the time that it took to cross most of eastern North America.
The Boston Marathon Attack and Trail of 2013 McKenzie Barnett Greenbrier High School Author Note This paper was prepared for LNG-322, 2nd period, for Ms. Jessica Coleman The Boston Marathon Attack and Trial of 2013 The Boston Marathon bombings were a series of two attacks that targeted spectators and attendees of the city’s annual 26 mile run. Two pressure cooker bombs exploded at approximately 2:49 pm, killing 3 people and injuring an estimated 264 others. The bombs exploded near the finish line with the attack leaving the nation in tears. There was no explanation from suspects as to why they felt as though this needed to happen. Persecutors are fighting hard to make sure the guilty party is punished to the fullest degree.
Sidakmeet G20 Riots The G20 riots that broke down on July 26 2010 in downtown Toronto made a day in the history of Toronto with largest mass arrest about 1118 protestors were arrested and caused damage worth million of dollars to the public property, shops and historical buildings and injuries to several people. No one had ever seen anything like this in Toronto and cops were trying their best to bring everything under controlled but riots were getting more intense. During the course of the G20 summit about 2000 angry protestors broke away from the protest route and headed toward the convention center where the summit was on its way but they were unsuccessfully as police maintained their blockades, protecting the fence. Protestors smashed the windows of various office buildings and stores along Yonge Street, Queen Street West using hammers, flag poles, umbrellas, chunks of pavement and mailboxes as the conditions were getting bad security was more tighten and more cops were called from neighbouring cities help calm the people. The first property damage reported was a Nike store and even the police headquarters was damaged by the protestors the riots were keep on getting more intense as now the protestors started blazing police cruisers on fire in various location and many bank branches were damaged which led to a total lockdown to Younge street police even the transportation was put on lockdown all the buses and subway was halted.
Did you know that on September 11, 2001 four passenger planes were hijacked by terrorists? This event is very significant to me for the following reasons, First, it was a very unexpected attack towards the U.S. Second, it killed approximately about 3,000 people. Lastly, it affected a variety amount of people mentally & emotionally. This attack was viewed by millions of people on live television. The attack was labeled "the most lethal terrorism in human experience."
The alarming statistics that relate to youth violence are alarming and over whelming. Upon review of a study about youth violence, The Center for Disease Control (CDC) states that in 2007, 5764 young people aged 10-24 were murdered, that’s an average of 16 each day (CDC2010). With that said murder is the second leading cause of death for that age group. Other less severe crimes, but still inexcusable are also on the rise. Assaults committed by young people ages 10-24 were responsible for more than 656,000 injuries treated in an emergency room (CDC2010).
For the first case, a massive flood displaced nearly eight-hundred graves in Hardin, Missouri in 1993. Authorities found displaced human remains over twenty-six square miles of land; fifty people were killed; 55,000 homes were damaged or destroyed; 58,000 people were displaced. It was a truly atrocious, upsetting scenario in which the likelihood of finding bodies was very low, and the procedures were costly. The public expected a lot from the anthropologists, hoping that they would work quickly and be able to recover all of the bodies of their missing families and friends. (Shows like “CSI” and “FBI” may give people an unrealistic expectation of these sorts of jobs.)
But Wikileaks was famous by the “ Collateral Murder”. In April 2010, An Apache gunship attacked and killed civilians and journalists in Baghdad in 12 July 2007. After that, more than seventy-six thousands documents called “Afghan War Diary”, which were not available for public, were published. After three yeas, The Iraq War Logs, which compiled about 400,000 documents, were released to the public review. In November 2010.
