I say that you need to teach kids a lesson, not restrict them from that opportunity to learn to do better when they are older. When the Oklahoma government plays the fair labor law, kids are highly restricted and don’t have much of a say in anything. The outlandish laws restricting much of the freedoms of being an American minor are completely and utterly wrong and should be abolished. So next time you see a minor working at a job, imagine you are congratulating him on achieving the unattainable, and remember fair labor, isn’t that
No Common Sense in Gun Control Stephen L. Kono Park University First Year Writing Seminar II: Academic Research and Writing EN 106 Mrs. Regina C. Muir October 11, 2013 Abstract Gun control advocates insist that increased gun control will lower the soaring crime rates of the early 70's. Gun violence is a big problem in the United States and should be reduced. Gun Control Act of 1968, did very little to lower the number of crimes committed by the use of firearms. Gun control in American history started back in 1775 and was the precursor to the American Revolution and our constitutional rights. One of the major points against gun control is the violation of your second amendment rights, you have the right to keep and bear arms for personal protection.

The Effects of Race in our Education k-12 English 1A 5/18/2011 “Education: It’s Unavoidable Favoritism” The Effects of Race and Class in Education Grades K-12 It would be a lie if you were to hear that education has spread itself evenly between California’s differentiating race and class. Throughout history we have seen valiant attempts to create equality in the learning facility such as Affirmative Action and the Equal Protection clause. In the United States, our Constitution guarantees that no person or group will be denied such protection under the law as is enjoyed by similar persons or groups. These individuals must be treated without prejudice and with the same treatment that their peers receive. The 14th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States prohibits states from denying any person "the equal protection of the laws."
The Impact of Reverse Racism Reverse racism is also known as reverse discrimination. Reverse discrimination is defined as laws and policies which deny certain opportunities, jobs, employment, contracts, and educational admissions to “whites” in favor of other, government-defined “disadvantaged” racial groups. Sometimes these policies and laws are collectively, if historically inaccurately, referred to as “Affirmative Action” (www.adversity.net). Racial discrimination in any way is not acceptable. The government has created a form of discrimination to combat previous discrimination; this is not even a levelheaded thought, programs and or laws supporting it such as Affirmative Action are immoral and should be abolished.
