The Drug Enforcement Agency along with police departments all over the United States believe, with the legislation of drugs, crime will result in an increase in drug-related crimes.
Meanwhile, the black market would disappear overnight. Some arrangement would be made to license the production of marijuana cigarettes. The untold multitudes of dealers would be put out of business, and a major source of financial loss to the economy would become one o ....

The Debate Over Capital Punishment
734 Words - 3 Pages.... or states that do have it, then those that do not. In
order for capital punishment to work as a deterrence, certain events must
be present in the criminal's mind prior to committing the offence. The
criminal must be aware that others have been punished in the past for the
offence that he or she is planning, and that what happened to another
individual who committed this offence, can also happen to me.
But individuals who commit any types of crime ranging from auto theft
to 1st-Degree Murder, never take into account the consequences of their

Admissibility

rules governing admissibility. Computer output is only admissible in evidence
where special conditions are satisfied. These conditions are set out in detail
in section 69 of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act (PACE) 1984 (see further
Nyssens 1993, Reed 1993 and Tapper 1993).

Illegial Aliens
600 Words - 3 Pages.... Their beguiling
apparitions are nothing but clever masks, which proclaim hope, and freedom.
Only those who can strike through those masks, can see vividly, the
intentions of these invaders. These are they which are labeled, "Illegal
Aliens".
I know you're not laughing, because it's not funny. For example:
7-11? Once an American dream, before the Illegal Aliens came into the
picture! Conceive that you walk wearily into a 7-11, yearning for a large
Pepsi, filled with ice, and brimming with tiny bubbles popping at the
surface. . . But no!! the cashier can only say, "Thank you, come again" in
a bad accent. You've probably also taken an extensive trip once or twice
along ....

Why Gun Control Is Needed
847 Words - 4 Pages.... surveillance by England, the Indians were in an uproar;
Canada was upset about our borders; and, if it wasn't for hunting, many
would have faced starvation! Guns were a necessity! Now, back to the
present . . . children, teenagers, maniacs, criminals, gang-ba ngers, and
those with a history of violence are carrying around guns that can shoot
180 rounds per minute, bullets that can pierce metal, and all at an
extremely high velocity! Gun control is needed to protect us from chaos!
Did our framers intend for these kinds of weapons to be sold to
anyone via the Internet or mail order catalog? After reading the
information that Mrs. McCall gave to me, I see that a majority ....

2680 Words - 10 Pages.... not a narcotic and is not
mentally or physically addicting drug. One can use mild cannabis
preparations such as marijuana in small amounts for years without physical
or mental deterioration. Marijuana serves to diminish inhibitions and acts
as an euphoriant. Only once in a while will it produce actual
hallucinations. More potent preparations of cannabis such as hashish can
induce psychedelic experiences identical to those observed after ingestion
of potent hallucinogens such as LSD. Some who smoke marijuana feel no
effects; others feel relaxed and sociable, tend to laugh a great deal, and
have a profound loss of the sense of time. Characteristically, those under
the influen ....

The Death Penalty Is Needed
988 Words - 4 Pages.... the murder. Was he/she abused or tormented in a severe way? Or was the victim raped? I would also take into account, the number of people killed by the murderer. Those are not the only things to take into account, but I will stop here.
It was August 3, the year was 1986. A man named Esquel Banda had just raped, stabbed and strangled a 74 year old widow by the name of Merle Laird in her own house. Banda then sucked the blood from the woman's mouth.
Does that describe a kind, gentle man, who is not a threat to society? A man who values life or a man that deserves life when he seems so eager to destroy it? I certainly wouldn't think so.
Some people believe that the death pe ....
