in our society today. The first is gun control reform. I believe that there is not enough regulation controlling who can buy and use a gun. There have been many mass shootings over the past decade, and not many effective changes in gun regulation. It is completely possible to strengthen regulation without violating the Second Amendment.

Europeans provided guns, knives, hoes, tomahawks, fabrics, rum, and more that became almost necessary to Cherokee life. In order to get more furs and skins for this exchange at a faster pace, the natives had to hunt more game using guns rather than the bow and arrow, which resulted in a quicker depletion of animal populations.

I believe this is a very good thing. We don’t want these types of individuals who show the propensity to commit crimes to be doing drugs. Thus in these instances again I think mandatory drug testing is a wonderful resource to help mitigate and control the risk of repeat offenders. Can you imagine that prior to the late 1980’s this wasn’t mandatory or routinely
therapy in the prevention of future suicide attempts. Cognitive therapy with PTSD treatments [U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (2015) explains the principles of cognitive therapy and its effects to those with PTSD]. What is cognitive therapy?

pirates could favor one class of ship over another in particular the Brigantine class of ship. So did pirates favor the Brigantine class of ship over all the others and if so what were the advantages and disadvantages to this ship? As we begin this paper, you may be asking yourself “what does a real pirate ship even look like? I am sure you have seen them in movies, but did you know that the oldest commissioned ship in the United States Navy is still active today? She is the USS CONSTITUTION and

These two seniors walked into their high school with assault rifles and killed dozens of students and one teacher with another 21 injured. School shootings have happened before, and there have been dozens of copycats throughout
This paper will explain the reasoning behind why people abuse children using the criminological theory General Strain Theory. General Strain Theory has four functions to it which are, 1. Strain, 2. Anger, 3. Lack of coping mechanisms and, 5. Criminal behavior. This sequence is vital to the explanation of General Strain Theory and easily explains why people commit crimes. The three key parts to identifying general stain theory are failure to achieve positive goals, removal of positive stimuli, and

This paper is going to look mainly at the impact critical incidents have on emergency workers, specifically police officers, after engaging in a shooting. The purpose of this paper is to discuss what Critical Incident Stress
people of a single race died in horrific causes and a few years after people around the world started stating this horrific genocide false, that it never ever happened in history or says it was exaggerated and never was a true genocide. In this research paper I will be talking about Holocaust denial and why it shouldn’t be a thing. True there are very small things about the Holocaust that is false, but the entire thing did happen and you can’t prove that the actually thing didn’t happen. Although many
