    The controversy with the right to bear arms starts with the goverment. Only a goverment who is affraid of its citizens trys to control them. Gun control is not about the guns, its about taking control. When you remove the right to bear arms, we can not defend ourselves from senseless crimes.

Why Should You Care About Separation Of Church And State? - 2 views

    This article talks about why church and state should be separate entities. It talks about how it is our right to follow any religion or none at all. To create a government that focuses on one religious group would cause discrimination against other groups as well as disrespect those of whom don't follow said religion. Keeping church and state separate also promotes the free exchange of ideas without fear of being persecuted for having a different belief. It is important to defend the separation of church and state as defending the 1st amendment right, defends personal liberties and promotes basic respect.

    The article talks about a book on how animals should have rights as in equal consideration. Animals have the ability to suffer as well as a human being. Why should or should not animals have rights?

    Good points. Are you vegan or vegetarian? Most animals have the ability to feel pain. Adolf Hitler stated that prey species such as deer, elk, gazelle, antelopes, etc. are healthier and can run for longer periods of time and promoted healthy eating (though he was a hippocrate and ate meat himself). When people eat meat they get tired easier, need more water, and have less energy. Without a moral foundation one can justify almost anything. Do you think Christian doctrine is to blame? After all, God told Peter to eat meat. Maybe it was the best choice in order to make peace with the gentiles and not eating meet would have made Peter look aloof. Then again, in Genesis it states that God gave mankind plants to eat and not meat. From a convenient point of view is it practical to only buy products that are not made from animals? Even makeup has animal products in it. What about shoes, clothes, purses, etc? Also, if you have time, I would suggest researching Ralph Smart. Have a good day.

    I enjoyed reading this article as well. Animals have very similar traits as humans. They eat, feel, and suffer just as humans do. Why should we strict them of their rights? Just because they do not have a voice to defend themselves does not mean we should ignore the equality they deserve.

    I loved this! Animals have such a huge place in my heart and definitely deserve all the rights as us humans do. I hate hearing stories or seeing videos posted on Facebook of animals being neglected.. I don't understand how some people can do such a thing to an animal who cannot even defend themselves. They just want to be loved and nurtured.

    The article made some great points. Animals do suffer. They feel pain and fear. Because of this, they definitely should be given rights. Like the article stated, I grew up eating meat, but have made the transition into vegetarianism thanks to my wife who is a vegan. All it took was for me to be educated on where our meat is coming from and the conditions of the animals being slaughtered. If people could read these types of articles and watch documentaries like "Earthlings" and "Cowspiracy" I am sure they might also consider vegetarianism or veganism.

The lawyers handled 1,000 cases a year, way more than the cap of 400 allowed annually. In result, they were spending less than an hour per case.

    Human trafficking is a travesty that many consider a problem of the past, or at least one limited to outside the United States. Unfortunately, in today's globalized society, the problems of human trafficking are embedded in aspects of Americans' daily lives in ways that many may not be aware of - taking on new forms and presenting new challenges for human-rights defenders worldwide.

    About 700 to 1,000 activists came out to voice their opinion for change during the March for Social Justice and Equality in Murray, chanting and holding signs with ambitions to send a message to the new presidential administration on the first day of the term. This is widely known as the "Women's March." It was much more than the dislike of Donald Trump, or abortion, it was about other social justices such as defending people of different colors, races, and sexual origin.

    Again I will ask how do you personally explain the duality of scientific evidence? The last time I check the currently elected administration is not taking English 102 or 101, sharing fact based articles or an attempt there unto pertaining. How do you personally defend your argument against the duality of scientific research; That in the last 30 years the atmosphere over the Antarctic has repaired itself over 150,000,000 square miles despite the increase of carbon emissions?

    New research show that 37% of employers use a mean of social media to pre-screen there applicants prior to hire. While the use of social media gives insight into a potential hire it has also created a reason to HR professionals not to hire them based on personal information. While positions in political areas try to defend there use of candidates social media log in information people protest this as a invasion of privacy. Not only are candidates outraged but Facebook has also disagreed with the practice ethically and legally.

    This article discusses and gives a few examples of Christian persecution here in the United States. In the examples given, this persecution has been a result of Christians standing up for their beliefs by not providing services for homosexual weddings. These beliefs and decisions should be defended by the government as religious freedom, rather than persecuted.

    The Department of Justice has announced an update regarding fraudulent unemployment schemes across the nation using COVID 19 as a primary reason. Many financial aid programs for unemployment have been the targets of this issue with scammers milking the benefits that are provided from them. Action has been executed to ensure the protection of these programs and will hold accountable defendants who have been caught being involved of these schemes. The more unemployment fraud makes its way across the nation, even globally, it makes it difficult to provide assistance to people or businesses who are truly in need of the help.
