continual debate among many about our local sheriffs of today. Many people believe that we should continue with the system of electing them as we do today. However, others think it would be best to hire them. If we began hiring the sheriffs based upon their credentials it would not only bring forth better sheriffs, but make getting rid of one easier too. Most sheriffs are only in power because they are liked around the area. Some places do not require their sheriffs to have any policing background. How
Is there anything that could justify Deputy Sheriff Fields, the SRO at Spring Valley High School, treating this teenage girl like this? In my opinion, I do not believe there is anything that could justify Deputy Sheriff Fields, the SRO at Spring Valley High School, with how he treated the teenage girl involved. School Resource Officer 's (SRO) work with community-based organizations that are suppose to prevent school violence and are trained in three specific roles: law related teacher, law enforcement

Growing up under a certain religion instills varying values and understandings into one’s moral fiber. These values are what shape a human’s character. In some countries, the government is trying to tell these peaceful people to disregard their upbringing and to conform to alien ways. Every religious sect has its own traditions and historical rituals

How does the Opening of Journey’s End grab the Audience’s Attention? R.C Sheriff’s “Journey’s End” is a piece of First World War literature and presents a realistic picture of life in the trenches as he had known it and a interpretation of the horrors from the war. It is set in 1918, and opens on Monday March 18th. It is placed in a dugout in the British Trenches before St Quentin. It is a powerful play expressing many different sides of the war from the death and fighting to the way the
At this point, the sheriff understands that Tom is not a coward and that Tom intends to shoot him. The sheriff pleads; “you would not kill the man to whom you owe your own life. Tom’s response is telling: You speak more truly than you know. I indeed owe my life to you”. And this takes the reader to a turning point in the story. Tom reveals angrily,” I am Cicely’s son Cicely whom you sold, with her child, to the speculator on his way to Alabama”. Sheriff Campbell finally grasps the enormity of his
Ewell since Scout had said that Jem had removed him from her. The sheriff, though argues that Mr. Ewell's death was accidental because he collapsed by his own on his knife.

In the year 1170 King Henry II created what is known as the Inquest of Sheriffs. When taking a closer look at this this document, it is obvious that it is a significant artefact of the medieval time period. By performing a thorough analysis of this source, one can easily see that it is filled with rich information on the time period in which it was written in. Not only does it allow us to see into medieval times, but it also gives us valuable information on society. Through this close reading, this
Police Brutality Even though not all police are corrupt, police use their authority in abusive ways as evidenced by the number of police brutality cases arising daily. Thousands of people every year are being abused by police. Minorities are unfairly targeted. To give a particularly striking example, one Florida city’s “stop and frisk” policy has been explicitly aimed at all black men. Since 2008, this has led to 99,980 stops which did not produce an arrest in a city with a population of just
From the humble beginnings of growing up poor and living in a log cabin in Kentucky to the office of President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln never lost focus of his mission in life. Lincoln’s morals and values drove him to success by hard work and a tireless focus on making the United States a better place for all citizens. Lincoln by far has earmarked his place in history as the greatest president ever to hold the office. Politicians today lack the sincerity and humble core that defined

symbolism, and themes to distinguish Mrs. Wright’s role in the murder and her character in the story. Glaspell utilizes irony from the title to the story. The male characters are the specialists on the scene. The author gives the men titles like "sheriff" and "region lawyer" while the ladies are on the scene to simply serve as the helping hand while the men work. The men settle on the investigative choices. They choose to go upstairs to see the murder scene, as they accept this is the most important
