    The criminal justice system is unfair. Some people cant afford expensive lawyers meaning they will be treated differently and more than likely not win their case due to not having money for a expensive lawyer.

    Should everything be provided equal to all? The criminal justice system reformation. Social justice is such a broad subject.
  • robbyloz on 03 Sep 19
     
    This sounds like extremely loaded wording and doesn't provide much fact at all. It's more a slandering and assertion of an opinion rather than a factual source. It could also be fairly offensive depending on who reads it.

    From time immemorial societies have sought ways to regulate and control human behavior in a fair and just manner. It would appear the issues start out fairly simple, say a law stating: You shall not kill... except ...and the "except" is why there is no consistent universal code of justice.

    I found it interesting that it said racial profiling is patently illegal. it also says racial profiling is ineffective. It makes me wonder how often occurrences like this are allowed just because no one wants to deal with it.

    In Oregon, a march was held to bring attention to human trafficking, specifically with children. The goal of the march is to bring attention to crimes against children and put a a stop to them. The march isn't just aimed at human trafficking against kids, it is also to bring attention to pedophilia and the unbalance within the justice system.
  • alexisgarcia28 on 08 Sep 20
     
    In this day and age, human trafficking has become more prevalent and a bigger deal. Many people think "oh it won't happen to me" but everyone needs to be more aware of the danger that some people in society hold. Marches such like the one held in Oregon are really good way to bring attention to the dangers.

    The imprisonment of human beings at record levels is both a moral failure and an economic one - especially at a time when more and more Americans are struggling to make ends meet and when state governments confront enormous fiscal crises. Having a system that relies on mass incarceration to continue in order to make profits goes against the purpose of the criminal justice system.

    Mandatory minimum sentences are the product of good intentions, but good intentions do not always make good policy; good results are also necessary. Recognizing this fact, there are public officials on both sides of the aisle who support amending some components of federal mandatory minimum sentencing laws.

    This site tackles both sides to a rather controversial topic. It brings in statistical data regarding both excessive and reasonable force. It discusses the tarnished relationship between the police and minority populations. It also briefly touches on how there isn't reliable data to appropriately distinguish police brutality patterns. The site also touches on topics of characteristics of suspects, use of "less lethal" weapons and body cameras for police officers.
