... of colored-folk. In my gang for instance, we have five Caucasians, the rest of us are either black, latino, or dark like me. However, we do not have any asians in our gang. And no, we are not racist towards hispanics. There's a gang that is called The Satanic Cult, which is into some pretty weird rituals. They consisted of animal and human sacrifices and people with brown hair were forbidden and non-caucasians. There are many different gangs. Now there's one I am familiar with, the Necronomicon, who jumped me and my homeboy (who's Latino) just because we weren't white. Another one would ...

... a view of themselves as having a special destiny. Lincoln in his Gettysburg address began to develop the “American dream�, which included justice, and freedom. This became a dream of people to expand the country, and create wealth and opportunity. America changed from an isolationist country wary of “foreign entanglements� to a world power willing to take on and defeat Spain in the Spanish-American war. From a nation of small towns and cities and small farms, America became an industrial colossus, with ship-building, rails, steel mills and factories, with a rate of growth that began to attract laborers fro ...

... a proper girl!(40)" She is struggling with him trying to hold her ground, but is becoming outraged, which is possibly her downfall. Even with this case of mass hysteria behind us, there are still issues brought up in our society upon which one can reflect on "The Crucible" and still apply the theme to the modern situation. The beating, or hate crime, committed against Matthew Shepard is one example of this. The brutal thugs who murdered Matthew Shepard simply because of his sexual orientation deserve swift and certain punishment. Their acts are despicable. Unfortunately, a new form of McCarthyism is welling up in ...

... you succeed, in return you will feel like a bird flying high above the Rockies. Everything will sing around you, and your heart will throb when you see that you have taken a liking to her. Now you have to get her to take a liking in you. First thing make her smile and laugh at a funny joke, find a way to draw her interesting into you; that is, without making a fool of yourself. Get her to look into your eyes; if she hesitates, she is just being bashful. The worst of all, she is not interested. Let us imagine meeting someone for the first time. The girl you are dying to ask on a date is finally alone, without he ...

... land resources by providing more agricultural area, and will help solve problems associated with overcrowding. In our solar system, a few planetic possibilities exist for colonization. Mars, one of our closest neighbors, was previously a prime choice until it was explored more in depth. Scientists have now found it to be a red, rocky, barren desert with little atmosphere, no water, and containing no life. If Earthlings were to settle on Mars, we would remain totally dependent on the Earth's resources. Another close planet is Venus, the second from the sun. This "sister planet" of Earth proved to have ...

... them the hazards of smoking. Unbelievably, they have ignored the issues of smoking for years. Long ago, no one worried about the hazards of smoking like we do today. The cigarette boxes did not always have the health warning on them that they do today. Smoking has been a part of history and is dated back to the Indians. It was not until recently that smokers were aware or were concerned about the risks of smoking. Consequently, people began taking action toward the cigarette companies and the risks of smoking. The cigarette companies began printing the Surgeon General’s warnings on the packages. An action ...

... exists, and it is the prevention of this desire that we need to focus on in order to wipe out drugs from our lives. In fact, our focus is strongly on punishing drug users, yet applying laws against committed drug crimes has not proven to be an effective solution. Drugs are still produced and distributed everywhere, and are taken by many. -- despite Obviously our focus is mid-directed. Because all types of people use illegal substances, pinpointing one specific group to “bust� is not effective. Recently, we have tried to track the location of drug use. We find places where drugs tend to be, and seek to ...

... Where does indivduality come in to play? Obviously, no where in the minds of supporters of multicultralist ideals; they assumes that indivduality is determined by ethnicity. Instead of encouraging reason and independent judgment, multiculturalism demands obedience to one‘s ethnic group. The purpose of a university is not to be a representative of society but to help develop knowledge and reason. How can multiculturalists say that this is fair to society? A just society is a society that lets one determine his or her beliefs and doesn‘t try to influence them one way or another. Society by definition mea ...

... transfusions, kidney dialysis, and heart lung machines, but what about the animals that are being tested on. The animals go from a stable to a unstable condition, or have a condition far more worse than which they started from. Lets say Mike, the lab mouse, was in good health and could function properly on his own. After a week of testing on his body, Mike could not walk, feed himself, or function properly due to the experimental test performed on his brain. Mike would have never had to experience the change in his body if he would not have been tested on. Death is another extreme case in . This may determine ...

... anarchy will not just come one day like an invisible shield trying to prevent this situation from happening. What needs to happen is, every person on this earth out of the many billions that there are, needs to take responsibility of his/her actions. Chaos, mayhem, disturbance, turmoil, pandemonium, uproar. Is this what we want in our world today? Although people are afraid to say it, it is obvious that if we all do not think before we do things, these events that I described could occur in the near future. Many people are in belief that chaos, mayhem, and even anarchy will not occur in their lifetimes. And ...
