    Minorities have a lower approval rating of law enforcement than non-minorities, as minorities feel they are often singled out. The understanding and acceptance of the minority experience is tantamount to improving relations between law enforcement and the public they serve. It is interesting to note that race is only one of several factors to consider in how law enforcement is viewed by a particular community.

    The article is about a highly controversial Arizona immigration bill. It is somewhat disheartening to see the article was written in 2010. 8 years later, there has been no improvement to immigration reform.

    this article does show us an issues that effected a lot of people. also the article gives good reasoning to why this bill was bad for police since people wouldn't wanna get involve with police good or bad involvement In the fear of getting questioned on their legal statues. this article also hits me in personal way because of where I am from a reservation where you are questioned before you can even enter major cities such as Tucson and casa grande.

    This article talks about a state legislature that was passed that places the primary responsibility of enforcing immigration law in the hands of Arizona. The article then goes on to explain the issues with this law when it comes to implementing as well as pointing out how it is unconstitutional.

    Texas has put an abortion law that prevents women from getting an abortion after approximately six weeks of pregnancy. This has led to people flooding their websites with false reports to deter their efforts in enforcing this law.

    I don't understand why they wanna regulate what we do with our bodies. Some people can't afford kids or are just not ready for kids and I don't think we should be ridiculed for that decision . I hope they overturn that law.

    The state that brought you the chain-gang enforcing Sheriff Joseph Arpaio, the "show me your papers" immigration law, and racial profiling is proud to present its latest hit: a law prohibiting sex and raced-based abortion, based on lies and stereotypes about black and Asian women. The woman and doctor must also sign an affidavit stating the reason the woman wants an abortion has nothing to do with the race or sex of the embryo or fetus.
  • haileymarr on 29 Jan 17
     
    Wow, I honestly had no idea this was going on. The law prohibits abortions based on the sex or race of the fetus or embryo, This is an extreme injustice! I can't believe we still face this kind of inequality.

    There are many pros and cons of legalizing marijuana. This site gives a bit of more information on what these pros and cons are. For example, Marijuana is no more harmful to a person's health than alcohol or tobacco, which are both legal and widely used, and regulated by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration, and Some Americans believe that marijuana ingestion is immoral, and that their moral standards should be required of all Americans.

    Article stating both sides of legalizing marijuana. Talks from several perspectives
  • Malia Kihei on 09 Sep 13
     
    Some of the pros of legalizing marijuana are that it can be taxed, law enforcement could be doing more productive things with their time and that whether one smokes it should be their own decision. Some of the cons include that marijuana could possibly lead to other drugs and that long term use could be harmful.

    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.

    This article discusses anti-voting laws that contribute to voter suppression. Bills are created to make voting or being able to vote as difficult and tedious as possible as well as deter people from doing so by enforcing sever punishments on those who (often unknowingly) improperly vote.

    This seems like a comprehensive collection of police shooting occurrences. When doing any research paper about law enforcement it would definitely be helpful. It is horrible that unjust killings exist.
  • mat2046668 on 05 Sep 16
     
    It is hard to discern the situation after-the-fact. Police officers are put into life-threatening situations but many times, they are dealing with someone who has a mental illness. In addition, the insurmountable evidence of police brutality is undeniable. I think we should re-evaluate our shoot first, ask questions later approach.

    It's nice to see how serious our law enforcement agencies are taking this. I'm all for making an example out of this kid. However, I'm not sure if 20 years is the answer either. If anything the kid needs some help, not a third of his life behind bars. Of course I can't share a definite observation, and opinion on the matter because I haven't listen to the video. Again, either way the security of our nation and its people is and should be highest priority.

    There is a long list of issues our nation has with prison. It's unsanitary, the food doesn't support a healthy diet. The lack of safety is a huge concern. This website explains many issues with American prison and list possibilities to change it.
  • sonyacorona on 29 Jan 18
     
    The detrimental impact of imprisonment, not only on individuals but on families and communities also need to be taken into account. Central to the arguments to promote prison reforms is a human rights argument.

    Negative news coverage, social media reports, and viral videos of police interaction, which has a negative impact on how law enforcement is viewed. Not every report is the cop not doing his/her job correctly. The news is not always truthful. Police are not appreciated for their dangerous job.

    Respectfully, I think a website named "cops" talking about police may have a little bias supporting one side of the argument. It's really important to remember this because this concept may invalidate a paper in the future!

This year it has gone up drastically due to their new president, who is deciding to loosen law enforcement for deforestation, & develop the Amazon, which is a very big problem.
