In this essay I am going to talk about how illegal immigration can be a good thing but also can be a bad thing for some people. A lot of people say illegal immigration is a bad thing. I agree with them to a certain point. They say it’s bad because of all the drug trafficking going on on the border today. I agree with those statements.
Although, drug-related crime might decrease and drug use will increase, if we just have criteria and enforce safe use of drugs, then society will have control of drug-use. "We believe that drug prohibition is the true cause of much of the social and personal damage that has historically been attributed to drug use. ", states Law Enforcement Against Prohibition (LEAP), "It is prohibition that makes these drugs so valuable – while giving criminals a monopoly over their supply." From my perspective, there will always be rebellion. The more you tell someone not to do something, the more they are
Gun casualties and incidents throughout the country have woken the public up from its ignorance and shown them the danger guns can pose to society (Martinez, 2013). While some people want a complete blanket ban on the ownership of guns, others wants an easier access to guns so that every person may look after their own security. Part of what makes the term gun control a very controversial topic is that it’s used in a ambiguous way that does not explain the details of the issue and the demands, apart from literally controlling guns. The two prominent sides of the debate are the groups who ask for liberal gun laws that make it easier for a person to procure guns and conversely, there are groups who want to repeal the second amendment. I personally am a strong believer that an “ideal society” should have no guns; nevertheless crime is a big problem to the citizens of our society and guns are necessary.
This pargraph is about media helping/hurting a polticians career. Mass media can be defined as places for messages that are created for a lot of people to hear. The media has noticeable effect on politics. However, the effect may not always be good. If used against politicians it can destroy his or her career, but if the media likes that one politician it can help his or her career.
Was prohibition the key factor why US society in the 1920s was so divided (24 marks) Prohibition was a key factor in the social unrest in America, It had many social impacts. Due to the unpopularity of Prohibition and people still wanting to consume alcohol even though it was now illegal, many ‘mafia’ type gangs saw an opportunity to make a lot of money by bootlegging and illegally selling alcohol and although organized crime was already around by the time Prohibition was put in place there was a rapid rise in it once Prohibition became the law of the land. Speakeasy’s were opened, these were illegal bars and clubs in which people would go to consume alcohol, these could range from tiny backrooms to large buildings with entertainment such as dancers and musical acts, The alcohol was supplied by the local gangs - It in some ways glamourized organized crime, making the idea of Gangs seem cool and a good way to make money – but gangsters would bribe the local police and government officials into ignoring the many illegal clubs in the area, They would also use fear tactics into getting the club managers and owners into paying them “protection money” this would ensure that their club was “protected” from the gangs but if they refused to pay the gangs the money they would often find their clubs blown apart or themselves being gunned down. Al Capone was one of the most famous gangster who made a profits during Prohibition, it is estimated that he made $60 million from bootlegging alone, He took control of the whole Chicago liquor industry by killing off all the competition in the area, he had a good talent for avoiding jail. The St Valentine’s Day massacre is a good example of how extreme the organized crime became, on the 14th February 1929, two rival gangs, one led by Al Capone and the other led by Bugs Moran, 7 mob associates were killed out in broad daylight
The first is a murderer and shows that he is aware of the risks he is taking. Malice is important for murder. As previous charges cannot help define if the driver is indeed drunk trails should take place in two parts, one to decide if he/she is drunk, the second to decide if the previous charges should have any impact on the sentence. II * The person who regularly drinks and drives is more at fault than the person who can’t foresee that he is going to be drunk and therefore hasn’t made other plans for transport * If there was a better public transport system then drunk people wouldn’t need to drive dangerously in order to keep their jobs III * Should follow the Scandinavian example where drunk driving means a revocation of you license and jail sentences. But we need to not only make charges more intense but also back it up with police force presence.
If the questions where am I underage drinking or similar to that then I would answer truthfully. But if it was a fact of I was underage drinking or using illegal narcotics and in truth I was I would probably lie. The reason being is that if the survey was not anonyms then it would basically being a written confession in my mind of hey I do use drugs that are deemed illegal. The next issue would have to be well what types of drugs are we talking are we speaking illegal over the counter prescriptions, and when we talk prescription are we talking abusing stealing some one elses what factors are involved. Criminal behavior would all be situational are we assuming that I’m a law abiding normal citizen or what.

Once a person under eighteen checks out one of the controversial books, there is a high chance they can learn something from it. If the town council were to remove these books, knowledge will be stolen from many patrons. Stealing the chance to learn from books just because a few parents are complaining about the subject material of the books, does not seem worth it. Other than patrons under eighteen, adults may wish to check out the unacceptable books. If the town council discarded
Drugs such as cocaine, heroin, marijuana and others are accepted as substances that cause addictions and many other problems, little do people know alcohol falls under this category. Why should other substances be illegal and alcohol be freely and legally available. Could it be that our government relies, financially upon alcohol? I am here to talk about why the selling and use of alcohol should be illegal and criminalized. Most people do not agree with going as far as penalizing individuals for the use of alcohol.
