Gardner’s ideas are too drastic and I believe he didn’t have enough support in his argument that his plans would actually decrease the murders in gang violence. To say that his thoughts on drugs are the missing piece to gang-violence; I agree with him one-hundred percent. Yet, to pinpoint on drugs as the only reason viciousness and violence happens in gangs, is almost too good to be true. Dan may as well fly off to Never-Never land, because those dreams aren’t ever coming true. First off, I would like to thank Gardner for his enlightening point of view, of how gang violence is heavily influenced by the whole drug trade and the black market that associates itself with it.
In 2010 backbenchers were threatening to rebel over tuition fees. This was enough to force concessions to be made so the rebellion wasn’t as large as expected. It could be said that they failed because the bill wasn’t defeated but in a way it was a success as changes were made. This shows that the image of being lobby fodder is being shaken off by the more outspoken MPs. It is difficult for a Backbench MP to influence government policy if a government has a large majority in Parliament.
Giving large sums of our personal profits to other countries will hurt us in the long run, it may be morally rewarding, but financially it is not. Another interesting argument against Peter Singer’s ethical views is that he is not against abortion or euthanasia. Not everyone is against abortion and euthanasia, but it is understandable to see how one can have a fight with these topics. If he wants life and liberty for one group of people, he should be for the life and liberty of all, this includes those in the womb. It is also a valid point to bring up that it is voted more of a reasonable action to save someone “right in front of you” rather than miles away.
They believe, like conservatives and new rightist, that the nuclear family is the best form of socialisation and avoiding crime. Another right realist, Charles Murray, believes that the rising crime rates may be due to a rising ‘underclass’, those who are defined by deviant behaviour and fail to socialise their children properly. Right realists also think that the state plays a big part in the rates of crime. As people can rely on the state to provide them with money people are less encouraged to go out and work to earn their money, fathers no longer need to support their children as lone parents can live off benefits, therefore decreasing the rates of marriage and the amount of nuclear families which the right realists believe lacks
Parts of the medieval court system which are still used in our American court system today Open-door policy The notion that our system is better because law and order happens behind closed doors especially needs to be challenged,There is a real downside to keeping those who are punished out of the public eye—we often have no idea how they are being treated most medieval communities lacking any proper policing, crime prevention was trusted in the hands of the village common-folk. There was no reason—or means—for punishment to be any different, say experts. "Punishments therefore had to be simple and generally seen to be fair," according to the online exhibitions of the United Kingdom's National Archives. "Fierce, physical mutilation common in earlier periods, was now rarely used. "Though murderers were often executed, the majority of lesser medieval offenses were punished by shaming the criminal publicly, according to Carrel.
Even though I think flogging is humiliating and painful, it is clearly a much easier and cheaper way of locking up a criminal rather than putting them in prison, and that we should consider bringing it back for non-violent crimes. In Jacoby’s article, "Bring Back Flogging," he talks to the readers about the flaws of today's criminal justice system and tries to persuade them to bring back flogging as a punishment for some crimes and other instances. Jacoby’s thesis is directly in his title “Bring Back Flogging”. His title is an attention grabber and it also makes the us think about his essay. He starts his essay with a knowledge on the puritans justice system, and how they dealt with criminals back in the old days.
Handing over the responsibility of making and amending laws to politically inept i.e. the general public is generally not advised. It is misguided to assume that all people are rational enough to choose the decision that is best for them. Most people tend to vote on issues based on their emotional response to them, charismatic campaigns and the opinion of the masses. The results of the referendum will therefore not be based on individual opinion and defeats the whole point of having
Some may have a low mood and physiological support will help with this. Treatments will be provided and advice. The support will be given by looking at their emotions, pressure and situations. From this a support can be given in ways to cope without drugs. The youth centre has children from different backgrounds so we work to identify risks of assumptions and
Malik Thompson Ethics The juvenile court System is a very good system, and is one that is well needed. Without it, how else would we punish the youngsters that make some wrong decisions? Three ways I would fix the problem here in the United States is that, I would have more harsh punishments for those who commit the crimes; I would have a better rehab process to prevent further crimes, and finally I would implement a mandatory parenting class for parents of violators. With the combination of these three ideas, plus other people’s ideas out in the world, we can all come to help to make this world and safer and better place to live and raise our children in. The first thing that I would change would be to enforce harsher punishment for crimes so as to defer young teens from making the same mistakes again.
They are suggesting that the state government should look into the possibility of using community-based alternative to detention which is not only more cost-effective but could also be a more effective solution to juvenile crimes. But this could only work if you have those teens who want the help. So that’s why they provide them with the feel like you at home setting. The state feel if we can provide them with the essential of doing the right thing, they will less likely to commit a crime. But being touch on crime is always a good approach, that’s what are need to stay on track.
