I [Edison] is the promoter of this petition PETITION To the members of the Bundestag of the Federal Republic of Germany. We the undersigned appeal that the German government should further restrict the number of the asylum immigrants. According to a recent report, more and more migrants have arrived in Germany, adding pressure to the current asylum centers. Fights have already taken place in the asylum centers between people of different ethnic or religious groups. Most of those trouble makers
It is generally assumed that torture is impermissible, a throwback to a more brutal age. Enlightened societies reject it outright, and regimes suspected of using it risk the wrath of the United States. I believe this attitude is unwise. There are situations in which torture is not merely permissible but morally mandatory. Moreover, these situations are moving from the realm of imagination to fact. Death: Suppose a terrorist has hidden an atomic bomb on Manhattan Island which will detonate at noon

Oprah has been in the spotlight for over 30 years as a television personality and entrepreneur. She possesses the ability to empathize with and listen to people as they tell her their stories.

The last sentence of Grendel can occasionally leave an eerie and confused interpretation. Grendel says, “Poor Grendel’s had an accident... So may you all” (Gardner 174). The interpretation of this sentence is that Grendel is cursing the animals there and every other animal. Grendel’s use of the word “poor” is to show humiliation in his self, but also in a mocking way. Throughout the story, Grendel feels sorry for himself because of his disconnect from other beings and his own beliefs. For example
