Is no one else going to mention the historical Coincidence we are witnessing in Dallas, TX.? Set aside, for a moment, the men and women that have been killed or injured. The inconvenient truths are, that this city hosted, perhaps, the greatest crime, since the Assassination of Abraham Lincoln, the Murder of a sitting president, John, F. Kennedy. The circumstantial evidence being a man with Three Names, with a military background, armed with an antique rifle, working alone, taking up a position in a snipers nest, within a building above the target and then being eliminated. All now conveniently gone before the chance of Any facts, live testimony or the accused rights to a defense ora voice, all gone before being illuminated in a trial. Only the words of those immediately involved tell …show more content…

All we have are the words of, at best, questionable entities and at worst, liars and murders from the highest positions. As with the last great deception, more than one could have been involved, the accused, could have been dead and planted even before the shooting began, how do we know? Even video and testimony is insufficient base on past truths. Those that control the present and the information available have a proven track record, THEY LIE, time and again, they have been caught, and we just keep moving on! And as we rightfully morn and grieve over the tragic loss of our fellow countrymen, we as a people must demand every detail, however small or insignificant it may now seem to be, for in the days and years to come, the pieces may fit together, as they so often do, in another configuration, and not as the official narrative we are being prescribed today would compel us to believe. We no long have the luxury of blind faith in authority we must demand answers and when those answers are not forthcoming or concealed we must conclude the answers we have been given are LIES!!!

    ...lusions—not only in regards to who the lynchers were, but also in regards to the identities of the victims (230), and, worst of all, whether or not the issues central to the Moore’s Ford lynching have been settled, and are past. In these senses, conclusiveness about these issues encourages falseness, precludes justice, and makes the audience let go of things that ought not to be let go—and this, short of the lynching itself, is one of the greatest possible wrongs (244). It is by refusing to conclude, then, that Laura Wexler achieves the greatest success of her outstanding narrative, and is able to successfully navigates the lies and deception of a muddled historical event by adeptly presenting them in the context of larger historical truths.

    The assassination of John Fitzgerald Kennedy, the 35th president of the United States marked a tragic historical moment in American history. The president was fatally shot by a sniper while traveling with his wife, Texas Governor John Connally, and Connally’s wife in a presidential motorcade at 12.30 pm on Friday, November 22, 1963. JFK was pronounced dead shortly after rushing to Parkland Hospital, where a tracheostomy and other efforts failed to keep him alive. Although Lee Harvey Oswald, a former United States Marine was convicted of the crime, the purpose behind the assassination remained inclusive as Oswald’s case never came to trial as he got shot to death two days later by Jack Ruby, a local nightclub operator in Texas. The assassination raised many questions and theories concerning the murder. As Oswald’s motives remain unknown, many scholars and investigators yearned to find the key to this mysterious crime, and came up with plausible theories searching for motives behind the assassination. While some straightforwardly blamed Oswald for the murder, claiming Oswald’s personal motives as the cause and supported the theory of the Lone Gunman, many developed more critical theories concerning conspiracies connecting the involvement of Cuba, Russia, the Central Intelligence Agency and the 36th President of the United States Lyndon B. Johnson. The Warren Commission was established by President Johnson to exclusively investigate the assassination. The Commission published a detailed report and concluded that Oswald acted alone. The deficiency of the Warren Commission’s evidence to support its theory along with the cordial relationship between JFK and the CIA refute both the Lone Gunman theory and conspiracies involving the CIA in...

    When horrific crimes occur in large cities, many of them can be chalked up to gang violence or to the larger population of that specific city. But when horrific crimes happen in small cities like Lincoln, Nebraska, people begin to ask questions like who did this and why. In 1958, a nineteen year old man named Charles Starkweather put the entire state of Nebraska and possibly the entire nation in a state of terror. With his murder spree taking only three days, Starkweather had collected a body count of ten bodies, including two teenagers and a young child. Understanding Starkweather’s past and state of mind begins to answer the second question of why.

    The “code of silence” is very real in Charlestown, as much a part of the landscape as the Bunker Hill Monument. The code of silence is the Charlestown phrase for local residents' unwillingness to reveal information to law enforcement authorities that might solve crimes committed by neighborhood residents. People who are present at murders say they saw nothing. In the heat of the moment, those who are careless and say they saw something, later recant. It can be argued that Charlestown has the world's greatest concentration of blind amnesiacs.

    My claim: I argue in favor of the right to die. If someone is suffering from a terminal illness that is: 1) causing them great pain – the pain they are suffering outweighs their will to live (clarification below) 2) wants to commit suicide, and is of sound mind such that their wanting is reasonable. In this context, “sound mind” means the ability to logically reason and not act on impulses or emotions. 3) the pain cannot be reduced to the level where they no longer want to commit suicide, then they should have the right to commit suicide. It should not be considered wrong for someone to give that person the tools needed to commit suicide.

No one wanted to believe that what was happening would change the lives of thousands.

    2435 Words  | 5 Pages

    One of the most repetitive and controversial topics discussed in the criminal justice system, is the death penalty. Capital punishment has been a part of our nation’s history since the creation of our constitution. In fact, as of January 1st, 2016, 2,943 inmates were awaiting their fate on death row (Death Penalty Information Center). Throughout my life, I have always been a strong advocate for the death penalty. During the majority of my undergraduate degree, I was a fierce supporter of capital punishment when discussing the topic in classes. However, throughout many criminal justice courses, I found myself in the minority, regarding the abolishment of the death penalty. While debating this topic, I would always find myself sympathetic to the victims and their families, as one should be, wanting those who were responsible for heinous crimes to

  • Kirstin Lobato Wrongful Convictions

    Hundreds of people each year are punished for crimes they didn’t even commit. Some have spent at least 14 years in prison, while others have spent time on death row. In 2015, up to 149 people were cleared for crimes they didn’t commit. (Ferner) This was because of DNA exonerations, eye witness identification reforms, criminal justice reform commissions, petitions, protests, news stories, preservation of evidence, and access to post-conviction DNA testing. Some causes that triggered wrongful convictions are: a younger defendant, a criminal history, a weak prosecution case, prosecution withheld evidence, and a weak defense (Predicting and Preventing Wrongful Convictions). Kirstin Lobato fits the shoe! She has been in jail for the past 15 years
