Don't Talk To Cops
... the FBI, or
the representative of any other investigative agency. Even the simplest
questions may be loaded and the seemingly harmless bits of information
which you volunteer may later become vital links in a chain of
circumstantial evidence against you or a friend.
DO NOT INVITE THE INVESTIGATOR INTO YOUR HOME!
Such an invitation not only gives him the opportunity to look
around for clues to your lifestyle, friends, reading material, etc., but
also tends to prolong the conversation. The longer the conversation, the
more chance there is for a skill investigator to find out what he wants to
know ...

Drug Legalization
... among our children is attributed to law enforcement, yet
recent increase in drug use are cited as evidence of law enforcement's failure.
Without question, drug abuse in our society has been a major cause of
crime and social disruption. The drug problem has been so enormous that some in
our society , misguided by frustration , are listening to the arguments to
legalize or decriminalize drugs. The solution to the drug problem is not to
repeal the drug laws. The solution requires commitment to a balanced effort on
drug education , prevention , treatment, and law enforcement. Softening our
drug laws would be a maj ...

The Need For Capital Punishment
... current form of punishments are no longer a sufficient deterrent for serious crimes and have contributed to a ever rising crime rate. So, this is where the real issue of whether or not capital punishment should exist begins and such a controversial issue could be best understood if we looked at capital punishment in a perspective of how it fulfils or does not fulfil society's ideas of punishment : Is not one of the four fundamental objectives behind punishment retribution? The sentencing objective based on the principle of "an-eye-for-an-eye", which means that what one person has done to another should also b ...

Marijuana
... where
memories are formed. This makes it harder for the user to recall events and
makes it harder to learn. Marijuana is addictive to some people. About 100,000
people seek treatment for marijuana use each year. Marijuana is usually smoked
as a cigarette (called a joint or a nail) or in a pipe or a bong. Recently, it
has appeared in cigars called blunts which are larger and, therefore, more
dangerous. Marijuana is a green, brown, or a gray mixture of dried, shredded
flowers and leaves of the hemp plant (Cannabis sativa). There are many slang
names for marijuana such as pot, weed, boom, gangster, and Mary Jane. T ...

Euthanasia And The Law
... ordinary medical care to a patient.
Currently, under Canadian law euthanasia is prohibited. In Holland
euthanasia has been accepted, in principle for terminally- ill patients, on
request. It comes to be seen as practice for those whose "quality of life" is
judged by themselves as worthless. Even though euthanasia is not yet legal in
Holland, it is legally tolerated. Doctors are rarely prosecuted and even more
rarely convicted. If euthanasia were to be decriminalized in Canada certain
restrictions would have to be put into place, to ensure that a patient's rights
are not infringed upon. A living will should b ...

Prohibition
... and were less expensive than coffee or tea. It was common to see after a hard day’s work to see the male members of the colony at the local tavern to enjoy a drink. Alcohol was seen as a medicine, an alexr to soften the hard edges of a rough life.() “By the 1820’s, people in the United States were drinking, on the average, the equivalent of 7 gallons of pure alcohol per person each year.”() This amount of alcohol is in about 70 gallons of beer, 39 gallons of wine, or 151/2 gallons of distilled liquor. Some people, including physicians and ministers, became concerned about the extent of alcohol use. The ...

The Fatal Addiction
... the pain. He also claims he hopes for forgiveness from the victim’s families even though he does not exactly know how they feel or where they are coming from. He also expressed that he was horrified that he was capable of doing something of such great damage. Some people may have forgiven him, but he will never be forgotten.
What pushed him over the edge and how did he deal with it? The disturbing influence of violence in the media, alcoholism, and the ambition to let go, pushed Mr. Bundy too far. He learned to accept what he had done and lived his life the best way he knew how. Even though he did not wa ...

Capital Punishment
... I am trying to say is that the prevailing thought is the death penalty will act to discourage other criminals from committing violent acts. Numerous studies have been created attempting to prove this belief; however,
"all the evidence taken together makes it hard to be confident that capital punishment deters more than long prison terms do."(Cavanagh 4)
In relation to the times in the French Revolution where murderers and thieves heads were thrown into the guillotine, our society today is at a much higher level of thinking. Why should we bring ourselves to the level of thinking that was used almost two hundred ...

Heroin Abuse
... in society. This is clear from the failure of the approach in other nations. For example the US carries out a drug associated arrest every 20 seconds, with no signs of any decline. All that prohibition succeeds in achieving is turning the drug trade into an illegal, dark and murky black market affair.
We must now ask the question, are we going to stand staunch in policies which have proved to be unsuccessful or are we going to take a brave leap into a more hopeful future?
There is great fear reverberating through the community; fear of stepping into a more open and frightening, yet decidedly more promising way of ...

Software Licensing And Piracy
... of manuals. It is
illegal for a corporation or business to purchase a single set of original
software and then load that software onto more than one computer, or lend,
copy or distribute software for any reason without the prior written
consent of the software manufacturer. Many software managers are concerned
with the legal compliance, along with asset management and costs at their

resources in regards to software distribution and licensing.
