... going to confront them since its just you—remember you thought you heard two of them right? Well you are really stuck in your room and all you can do is sit there hoping that they leave soon and don’t harm you. Now if it were at my house things would be a little bit different. For starters I would get out my shotgun from my closet and begin to see what is gin on down stairs. As soon as those burglars saw me walking around with a gun, you better believe they would think twice about sticking around any longer. II. Statistics- A. 39% of felons aborted a crime due to the victim being armed B. 74% say they avoided d ...

Models Of Political Ideology
... the importance of the square model verses the linear model, the understanding of the different elements involved in these models must be explained.
There are five main elements/political philosophies in most American political ideology models: left-liberal, right-conservative, authoritarian, libertarian, and moderate. The first, left-liberals, believe in governing themselves on personal matters, but they want government to control economics. The left-liberals "want government to serve the disadvantaged in the name of fairness. Leftists tolerate social diversity, but work for economic equality" (Libertarian 1). The ...

The Central Government
... they both made changes to the government
before them. In this, I mean that when the Articles of Confederation were being
written, they used the English Government as a base, and improved from there.
They didn't want the president to be too powerful, like the king. The
Constitution made changes to the Articles of Confederation by making a stronger
government, rather than a weaker one. Thirdly, both governments had the power
to coin money, but the Articles of Confederation didn't use that power.
Now let's get to the differences. For one thing, under the Articles of
Confederation, you must need a unanomous vot ...

Abortion
... They feel so strongly about these beliefs that violence has broken out in some known instances. Pro-choice activists, on the other hand, also carry very strong points. They believe that the child inside them is their property and it's life doesn't be until birth. In 1973, the United States Supreme Court decided that as long as the baby lived in the womb, he or she would be the property of the mother. Because of this decision almost every third baby conceived in America is killed by , over one and a half million babies a year (Willke vii). Many countries have followed our decision on the issue and some of these i ...

The Environmental Protection Agency
... society; namely, that mastery of nature is mankind's greatest
project. It may force a choice between health and beauty on the one hand
and prosperity on the other. It requires us to consider our relationships
not only to fellow humans but to plants and animals as well.
First of all, an agency like EPA has substantial power, because of
its expertise and its formal authority. Even when disputing its findings,
all parties to a controversy often find themselves focusing on the
information and analysis that EPA provides. The Environmental Protection
Agency is unique among environmental regulatory agencies in that ...

Southern Voting Behavior Since
... years become a typically conservative voting electorate. This tendency of voting by race for the liberal or conservative candidate has been a continuing occurrence. Southern turn out for elections has been significantly lower than the rest of the nation as well over the same time period. This bias of the past 30 years as well as voter turn out has only recently began to change in the South.
In the beginning of and prior to the 1960's the South was a Democratic stronghold and it was rare for there to be any competition from Republicans in these non competitive states (Mulcahy p.56). A poll taken in the 1960's showed ...

Social Security In The Future? Maybe Not
... to old. We all agree that I am not going
into a nursing especially me. If the government would have told us that they
couldn't solve the Social Security crisis almost 30 years ago I would have
prepared better. But instead they promised they could save it and the program
would still be aruond when I retired. They obviously lied and now I have
nothing. Moments later I hear music its my alarm clock. It was only a dream its
April 1996 and I'm 18. The article about the Social Security in the paper had
me thinking and I must have a bad dream.
The Presidential election will be coming up this November ‘96 and ...

Should The U.S. Accuse Middle Eastern Countries For Supporting Terrorism?
... the United States
acts as a terrorist, and because the United States provokes or causes
terrorism.
The United States harbors terrorists within its own national
boundaries. The United States encounters terrorism on her own land caused
by none other than her own citizens. The best example of such an act was
the devastating bomb, which exploded in Oklahoma City. The criminal was
none other than a U.S. citizen named Timothy McVeigh. In a recent article,
Time's Patrick Cole claims that before McVeigh was sought out as being the
one responsible for the bombing the United States blamed a foreign, and
more pre ...

Labor Issues
... today as labor unions. “A labor union is an organized group of workers whose purpose is to increase wages and influence other job conditions for its members” (Parkin, 1998,p.344). These labor unions can be divided into two types: craft unions and industrial unions (World, 1998). A craft union is “a union whose membership is restricted to workers who possess an identifiable skill” (Robinson, 1985,p. 69). These members tend to be better educated and trained, and more unified because of common interests (World, 1998). An example of a craft union is the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union (Wor ...
