Government officials, politicians, and courts employees have concluded that individuals commit crimes for private alternatives and they should be punished and held responsible for their actions and conduct. Criminals also have the concept that they will never be caught thus they will continue commit crimes until proven otherwise. Large amounts of criminal who have committed offenses do not think about the consequences of their action (Brown, 2007). Today’s society has determined that the root of why an individual would choose to commit crimes is steam from the lack of education and impoverished backgrounds (Brown, 2007). To do wrong and commit crime is a choice of the criminal.
In my own opinion this causes many issues which can lead people to do immoral things and commit bad crimes, and be able to justify their actions by stating it was already determined for them to do it. With this idea you can’t be praised for doing good things or punished for doing bad as we did not choose to preform or commit these actions. Ted Honderich was a hard determinist and said all our choices, intentions and our actions are nothing more than effects from other past events that have already happened. David Hume would criticise this he argues against hard determinism and says we do have free will and moral responsibility, we are responsible for all our moral and non-moral actions regardless of whether they could have been determined by our past choices or values. John Hospers also thought all things were determined.
In Brent Staple’s essay, Black Men in Public Spaces, he targets a wide variety of audiences in American society. Through his personal experiences Staples eloquently discusses the discrimination faced by black men in the elite, white social class. Not only does Staples prove his point that racism and fear of black people are ever present, but he shows the other side of the argument, specifically why white women are afraid of black men. His vivid scenarios and sense of alienation add to his very valid points. Brent Staples reached his audience on not only a personal, but public level as well.
In Brent Staples’s essay “Just Walk on By: A Black Man Ponders His Ability to Alter Public Space”, Staples explains how black men are discriminated against in public through the events that happened in his own life and the lives of others. Brent Staple says that stereotypes usually mislead and have bad effects. He says that stereotypes affect the stereotyper. People perceived that Staples was - a black man - as a mugger or sometime even a rapist just because the color of his skin, especially white woman with well dressed, and in her early twenties. The author was known as a night walker.
Consequently, we might even have more time to consume for analyzing what and where may the terrorists’ attacks be. However, if we wasted our time on finding the correct prisoners and torture them, we are not only having a risk of killing them, but a risk of receiving lies, for they might tell lies to stop torturers from continue torturing them, or nothing at all as well. Another case that would be extremely likely to happen is that criminals who are tortured begin to hate the world much severer. As a result, they would become determined that they would say nothing about their plans. Furthermore, they would be viewed as potential risks when they are out from the jail since the more they hate the world, the higher the potential of constructing evil attacks by them would be.
1. “One of the difficulties about being a Negro writer (and this in not special pleading, since I don’t mean to suggest that he has it worse than anybody else) is that the Negro problem is written about so widely” (446) James Baldwin is referring to the fact that African American writers have written about all of the problems already suffered by African Americans; He feels that every body considers themselves informed about the African History. He also is stating that there is either a pro or against side in the writings there is pain on both sides there for it is difficult to find things to write about because both sides cause him pain. 2. “But it is a part of the buisness of the writer-as I see it- to examine attitudes, to go beneath the surface, to tap the source.
Academic performance may consist of excellence, average, and failing, without signs of mental defect or depression, even though many of the perpetrators threatened to commit suicide, made suicidal gestures or actually attempted suicide prior to carrying out their attacks. (Bartol,ch 7). With this insight, we have a shooter, who is actually a victim of ridicule trying to retaliate against their antagonist, but in the end, brings harm to themselves and other innocent people. The use of security personnel, surveillance cameras and metal detectors will only prohibit weapons from entering schools. Without a solid explanation for the cause of these events, other than a lack of recognition and respect from peers, we will never reach the possible root of the problem, causing a delay in the implementation of prevention practices.
The controversy comes in here because a person can harm themselves which can affect other people connected to the individual. Also if a person does something which harms only him/her, someone might see that and does the same thing and end up causing harm to them. So the theory is limited and flawed. Mill supported this theory because he felt it will promote individual
Also, technology and managerial efforts’ failures are conceivable and it can be crucial in certain circumstances. Similarly, judges’ plan for placing yard signs is somewhat raise negative signal in the criminals, who wants to overcome his guilt. As a result, he would isolate himself from the society, and which in turn will produce negative outcomes. Then again, for the public safety, it is necessary to ratify different security mechanism despite the presence of moral and legitimate issues. So, it would be healthy to trace and map criminal’s residence to avoid potential threats of
Bullying can be further resisted through further evasion, through covert retaliatory bullying and through overt bullying (if all else fails). Then bullying on each side can escalate to threats of violence and actual violence as is sadly too often the case in domestic and mainstream psychiatric situations. And, even the confronter can get sucked into using evasion tactics when more direct communication is rendered useless by endless evasion upon evasion. Evasion can be aware or unaware, and it’s unaware evasion that can be the most problematic because attempts by a confronter to expose that evasion are likely to result in unaware denial and unaware delusion. Then, in this situation, if the confrontation is stepped up and/or is supplemented by intimidation or bullying, then the unaware denial and delusion can become ever more entrenched creating a vicious circle of determined force meeting eternally stubborn obstacle.
