don't like to have that feeling. Some of these things are not such a big
deal either. This is because it is such a small dose. However, it is
still abusing your body, and your body's functions. Besides all that,
there are also legal consequences.

Gun Control

violated by gun control laws. One of the NRA=s main weapons in this
crusade is the second amendment of the Constitution of the United States of
America. The amendment=s translation in the eyes of the NRA and many
American citizens, clearly protects the individual rights of all citizens
to possess and operate firearms. This would easily make any and all gun
control laws unconstitutional. And therefore illegal. This translation,

Capital Punishment: Right Or Wrong?
Words: 1153 / Pages: 5 .... we are pretty much telling them to go ahead and kill people, because there will be no real penalty for it. Which brings me to next point, if a potential murderer knows that if he is found guilty of murder, he himself will be killed, then he is less likely to commit the crime. The saying, “eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth” comes into play here. For example, New York State has a “zero tolerance” policy for murderers.

Also, no one has been put to death in New York State since 19 .....

Capital Punishment
Words: 2571 / Pages: 10 .... they invalidate the
right of the perpetrator to membership and even to life. A community founded on
moral principles has certain requirements. The right to belong to a community is

of life and opportunity to others forfeits ones own claim to continued
membership in the community, whose standards have been so flagrantly violated.

Words: 1958 / Pages: 8 .... be lowered to
18.
During the period in the 70's when many states were lowering their
drinking ages scientists started doing studies to determine whether or not
the younger drinking ages had any effect on automobile accidents. These
studies generally concluded that traffic accidents significantly increased
among teenagers after the MLDA was lowered.(Toomey 1) It can, however,

ages had been lowered, they would naturally show that there was an increase
in death among teenagers. Anytime you change something dramatically it
takes a while for things to settle into a routine. I .....

Our Court System Is Inefficient
Words: 849 / Pages: 4 .... though similar in methodical procedures, the court cases are longer and much more time is spent on each individual part of the case, from presenting the evidence to cross- examination of the witness, this is because of the amount of information involved.
