If your life was in jeopardy, every day is you telling me. You wouldn't need weaponry just because of your felony. Consider this at least, I got everybody sweating me.

We have been on a raid into Ms. but I have not time to give you the particulars of our trip. I will write in a few days if I can get a chance to send it and write you a long one. I just came off of picket and found the boys all writing to send by a man that has been discharged who is going to start home this morning. I was quite sick three or four days while in Mo. but have entirely recovered.
“How much long’r?” Ruthie complained as the sun rose higher in the sky. “It ain’t much long’r now,” Pa said. “Looks like lucks’ on our side, we should be outta here soon ‘nough.” Pa face seemed distant, like he wasn’t quite with the family at the moment. Ma had taken over as leader as Tom had left them to go rebel
It is the worst case of child abuse and neglect that I have ever seen.” Victoria’s condition continued to deteriorate. In a desperate attempt to save her life, Victoria was transferred to the paediatric intensive care unit at St Mary’s Hospital Paddington. It was there that, tragically, she died a few hours later, on the afternoon of 25 February 2000. At the post-mortem examination, Dr Carey recorded evidence of no fewer
“The London riots of 2011 were a product of society” – How valid is this view? In August 2011 there began a wave of civil disturbances that spread across Britain’s inner cities following a peaceful demonstration against the death of Mark Duggan, a local who was shot dead by police on August 4th 2011. Thousands of people rioted resulting in chaos generated looting, arson and mass deployment of police - The following days saw similar scenes in other parts of London, with the most rioting taking place in Hackney, Brixton, Peckham and Croydon. From the 8th until the 10th August cities in England including Birmingham, Bristol, and Manchester, along with several towns, saw what was described by the media as "copycat violence", an uprising of violence and crime. Newspapers, TV screens and the internet were flooded with reports and images of crowds rampaging through the streets, setting buildings and vehicles alight, fighting with police and smashing and looting from both local shops as well as big name high street shops.
It is interesting to observe the author’s note at the beginning of this publication of his essay; Clark informs the reader that this writing was first published twenty years earlier, and how disappointed he was to realize that the article is just as relevant at the present time as it was then. He presents several additional examples of using writing as punishment, and the “grotesque consequences” (Clark, 2009, p. 4) of such measures, including the Harry Potter movie in which Harry is forced to write the sentence “I will not lie” over and over with a magic pen that would leave bloody marks on his hand with each letter that he wrote, scars that would never heal (Clark, 2009, p. 4). The author begins his essay with a story of two fifth grade girls, researching materials in a school library to use to write a term paper. As the principle
Could steps have been taken to avoid the civil disturbances, the largest seen in the 20th century in Great Britain, that followed? Did the Scarman Report go far enough in highlighting the issues of the black community and address the perception of a racist police force? The riots that occurred in Brixton in 1981 can trace a link back to the riots that had erupted in Bristol in 1980 when the local police entered the Black and White café to apprehend a known criminal. This led to one hundred and thirty people being arrested and twenty-five people hospitalised after a night of violence not seen on the streets of Great Britain since the race riots in the 1950’s. Bristol was experiencing the same issues highlighted by the local populace of Brixton – heavy handed policing using sus law, a lack of adequate housing and job opportunities.
In the 18th Century, gang problem became worse as the new generation of immigrants continue to enter the United States. During this time, Irish gangs like Whyos, Dead Rabbits and Plug Uglies and Jewish gangs like the Monk Eastman Gang brought terror in New York City streets (Lou Savelli, 2001). In the 19th Century, the most notorious gang was formed – the Five Points Gang. One of the most notorious members of the Five Points Gang was a young boy of Italian descent in the name of Alphonse Capone also known as Scarface. His whole life was an illustration of the power and influence of organized crime in the United States during the 19th Century (“Al Capone”).
Recently I realized that the staircase going to my supervisor’s office was rotting away and I decided not to do anything about, but make sure I was careful on them. A week ago the staircase gave out and my supervisor fell down the stairs forcing him to retire because of the injuries he incurred. After my supervisor was forced to retire I was promoted into his position. The decision that I made by not reporting the breaking away staircase did not break any legal laws that I could get into trouble for. But now that all this has happened I feel pretty bad about what happened because I did not report the failing staircase.
Shortly after he simply stated that it wasn't in his job description to clean up after other people and that there wasn't anything he could do about the unfortunate mishap. Long story short, my roommates and I had to bleach and clean every inch of the apartment ourselves. About a month into living in the on-campus apartment there was a horrible leak everywhere emanating from the bathroom located right above our apartment. When my roommates and I reported this to the maintenance man he said that we would have to wait until spring break for him to fix the leak because it required a lot of work. It was great that the leak was going to be fixed
