He does not acknowledge that shaming sentences could also have effect on the offender’s family. He uses materials that not only does not fit his topic; it goes against his original argument. He never addresses how shame may not be affective. Kahan argues “Shame clearly does not harm as much as imprisonment” (576). He then gives an example of a woman who chose to post an article in the newspaper saying she purchased marijuana with her children in the car, instead of doing jail time.
Sister James never says that the boy was drunk, only that she smelled alcohol on his breath. This was from earlier, before school had begun, and Father Flynn called him to talk to him about it. The fact that alcohol was on the boy's breath but lack of intoxication is actually for Father Flynn's innocence. 2. Why did Father Flynn resign if he was innocent?
was at an educational institution run by the state doesn’t mean the Charter should be overseen. There is always the possibility that J.F. was using the marijuana for personal use, or was using it outside of school off school property. If this is true J.F could be wrongfully accused of trafficking, which in no way has my client J.F. ever taken part of.
If that question is asked at a table usually people would say “No”. A long time ago that answer would have no opposition, but now with the recent murders of students on school grounds that answer is not so easy to answer. In 2006 after the recent shootings in Colorado, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania a representative by the name of Frank Lease, a Green Bay legislator. Planned to introduce a legislation that would allow faculty to carry concealed weapons on school grounds as a deterrent against shootings. Allowing faculty to carry firearms can have an effect on mass shootings at schools.
Influence of Moral Reasoning Kelly Trugon CRT/205 January 19, 2014 Maria Sykes Influence of Moral Reasoning I chose the president of Penn State, Graham Spainer for my subject. In this case, Jerry Sandusky allegedly sexually abused a young boy. Spainer approached Sandusky with the allegation and decided to keep it at school level and not report the crime to the police. Spainer said, “The only downside for us is if the message isn’t heard and acted upon, and we then become vulnerable for not having reported it” (Eder, 2012). Because of his action, Sandusky was never charged and continued to molest little boys until he was caught years later.
The purse’s main area contained cigarettes and rolling paper. This prompted a further search of the rest of the purse which turned up drugs, money and a list of students who owed money to this individual for drug sales. The court recognized the school as a unique environment that needed special protection to ensure that it properly functions. This decision has been the “go to” standard for public schools ever since. Today some question the validity of the diminished standard as new technology has emerged that the Supreme Court of 1985 could not have foreseen (Sprung, 2011).
Parents of one student, James Actin, sued the school system on the grounds that the drug testing violated 12 year old James’ rights against unreasonable search and seizure laws. They argued that James had never shown any signs of drugs use, and the school had no reason to suspect he used drugs. In 2002, the law was challenged when Lindsay Earls and Daniel James, participants in non-athletic extra-curricular activities claimed that because they were not athletes, and because the school system of Tecumseh failed to identify a real drug problem, their rights were violated. 3. What are the three main ways a citizen can influence a law?
Dear Editor, Imagine that you are walking into school when all of a sudden the principal announces that there will be a random locker search taking place for some of the students, and one of those students happens to be you. Not only will a staff member/administrator be able to look through everything in your locker and backpack, your iPod and cell phone will be confiscated as well due to the fact that those items are causing distractions in the classroom. Your principal argues that these random searches are to create a safer, more secure, and unassailable environment, but to some students, the searches may mean something different. This would be the equivalent for an adult walking into work and all of a sudden having someone look through all the items in your office and bags. Random searches against students are wrong because valuable time and money is consumed while conducting the searches, they can create tension between students and teachers, and it violates a student’s privacy.
is to discourage kids interest in illegal drugs, tobacco, alcohol, gangs, and violence. In addition to discouraging kids interest in illegal activity, D.A.R.E. demonstrates to kids certain skills for resisting peer pressure to experiment and giving them alternative ideas to drug use. The most unique aspect of this program is it employs uniformed police officers to carry the anti-drug message to the students (Siegel, 2005). This program is implemented in 80% of the nations school districts, and 54 countries around the world (D.A.R.E.
This study is concerned with inconsistencies between parents' estimates and their children's reports of marijuana use, and children's subsequent usage later. The prevention and continuous caution toward the use of marijuana raise the questions and curiosity towards product. The chaos toward the product influences them to use it. The wrong belief about some behavior actually caused those to happen. Another evidence of self-fulfilling prophecy can be seen in field of sport.
