No, I don’t agree with the sentencing because had the judge given the message sentence, that may cause Sandusky grounds for another appeal on the maximum punishment for the numbers of years that he’s already going to serve.

Given Sandusky age, the sentence is long enough even he was able to walk in general population that would be his death sentence as well.…
Imagine seeing an average West Valley student that uses his phone and watches television in moderation and completes his homework. Now meet Quinton Schafer, a self proclaimedself-proclaimed screen abuser. Schafer confessed to using his computer for several hours a week on a school night. His screen time doubles on weekends to about twelve hours. Since he attends West Valley High School he must also juggle school work and his athletics. The result is that he is unable to do all of this and must sacrifice time to pursue his computer habits. Not only will they consume precious time, but they do much worse. Screens are obviously not beneficial for students so encouraging students to participate in “shutdown your screen week”.…

If someone attempted to rape you, fail to succeed, and then beat you, what would you do? Go to the police and risk nothing coming of an investigation? Pretend it never happened and sweep it under the rug, just to manifest in your later years as perhaps a mental illness or PTSD? I believe that Bean going to a lawyer and pressing charges was the best way to handle this problem. Why? Well, because Jerry Maddox needs to pay, the town needs to know, and Liz needs justice.…

Jerome Murdough, a fifty-six-year-old ex-Marine, was looking for a safe place to sleep in 2013, when he was arrested and charged with trespassing. He was fined over two thousand dollars and, due to his insufficient funds, was sent to Rikers Island—where he met his end. Murdough was in the suicide watch section of the prison due to a history of mental illnesses and was supposed to be periodically checked every fifteen minutes. Autopsies show that he likely died of heatstroke or severe dehydration, which conveys that he was not checked according to protocol (Pearson 1). Jerome Murdough’s death provides dismal insight into the future of the homeless if we continue to make their life-sustaining actions, such as finding a safe place to sleep, illegal…
Since the first migration of settlers began, America has always boasted itself` as the land of the free, the home of the brave, and a haven for all; however, when one peers deeper into the eloquently written half promises of freedom laid out in the Declaration of Independence, the reality is far from what is portrayed. From manifest destiny to slavery, discrimination has been engraved in the American way of life from the beginning. Over the centuries, there have been many instances where America has provided onlookers a glimpse of its true beliefs on issues such as race, but none more assertive than that of the court case Dred Scott v. Sanford. Dred Scott was a slave who once belonged the family of Peter Blow, but was later sold to the army…
It is possible as well that some critics believe Clinton’s voice represents her lack of capability to be president because her pitch is closer to that of a child’s than a man’s voice typically is. The correlations found in West and Zimmerman’s research on the nature of interruptions in conversations between men and women and parents and children reveals a potential explanation as to why women in politics may be received with less conviction. West and Zimmerman concluded that men interrupt women similarly to how adults interrupt children. According to their findings, women are more likely to be ignored or restricted by the men they are speaking with and men interrupt when they deem what a woman is saying is problematic (West and Zimmerman).…
