Australian government is said to have agreed with the convict, one can assume this is due to British influence, practice of imperialism. Despite only given a day to prepare for his case the defense lawyer Major puts on a good trial which on a fair trial would have proved innocence for the poor Australians, doomed from the
George does not care about Lennie’s situation and he trust in him as Lennie trust in George. In chapter four, the George says, “A guy needs somebody-to be near him” shows that people need other people to be strong and take better decisions. No matter who is that person and how smart is he or she. George does not care about who Lennie is and he considered Lennie his friend, showing that intelligence is not everything. All Lennie actions show his innocence.
At long last, justice may come to hoons who kill Lainie Anderson’s opinion article ‘At long last, justice may come to hoons who kill’ contends that the hoon drivers are merely getting ‘a slap on the wrist’ they aren’t paying the price for unacceptable behaviour. The vindictive tone earlier on in the piece demonstrated at the started stating to the reader that the book plays not everything. The writer’s intention is to prompt awareness about anti social driving and the lack of consequences reprisal. The heading of the article grabs attentions, sparking room for thought; ‘justice’ the word cleverly used stating an underlying message that Australian laws do not bring justice. ‘Hoons who kill’ encourages the reader to recognise the prominence of the issue.
It cannot get much more honest than that. Narrators often describe people or things in a well rounded sense, they go over details equally to present a neutral point of view but the fact that Nick describes things on first glance and speaks about the things that stick out to him shows much more honesty than someone who is trying to be neutral and shows it. It also goes back to the concept of honesty, Nick describes whatever stands out to him. That, in and of itself is an honest idea, is seems like he does not sensor what he sees, he just spills it out to us. Another example of Nick’s honesty is his attention to detail.
They explain to us how Singer can think highly of Spiros and how Singer, as the role of Spiros, does not give them any advice at all and that they actually find the advice for themselves. The communication barrier between Singer and Spiros and between the others and Singer supports this fact in that the others are wrong about Singer’s greater knowledge. Biff, who made this observation, thought nothing of his comparison. He would not imagine that Singer would think as highly of Spiros as the others think of Singer. In short, this quote explains the reason for Singer’s and the others’ relationships.
The context of the writer is very similar to my own, making his argument more relatable for me as the reader. “They regret that justice was not exacted by other means”. Sheehan uses fact to present these ideas, and statements revealing some unfortunate truths of Australia’s legal system the previous statement supporting this. The importance of context in this article is that your context and the context of the writer assist you in shaping your ideas and your opinions of the case, make it horrifying but very interesting. This text was extremely interesting and raised very important questions about Australia’s legal system by pointing out unfortunate faults.
Baker believed that Gray’s document was a document of complete officialdom, and therefore there was no need to briefly discuss and question Gray’s “The Confessions of Nat Turner.” As Fabricant wrote “disturbing is that Gray’s work bears the stamp of officialdom and authenticity.”[9] As a result of this, Baker decided there was no need to preface the novel with a word about the unknown surrounding Turner and the lack of validity of Gray’s document. By Baker not prefacing the novel with a word about the uncertainties of history and the authenticity of Gray’s “The Confessions of Nat Turner,” Baker is consciously deceiving his
As a materialist Picard sees no difference between Data and himself because they are both have the same mental and physical capabilities. In arguing Data’s case materialism would have problems with the first law of logic which states “Something cannot both be and not be at the same time and in the same respect (Foreman, p. 116).” In Picard’s view Data is the same as him so the law is not contradicted, but a strong argument can be made that Data is undeniably a man-made “thing” so it cannot possible be a “thing” and a human at the same time. Maddox’s belief that Data is just property is based on the Dualism view of the “Mind-Body Problem”. Dualist believes are that “human beings have both physical properties and mental properties. Physical properties are properties of the body while mental properties are properties
