police reputation crisis - 3 views

  •  
    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!

    I agree with the article and your stance on this. Police officers definitely receive a lot more flack than they deserve for simply doing their jobs.

Rehabilitate or Punish? - 0 views

  •  
    The article is from a reputable psychology organisation and it exams the motivations for prison sentences. It suggests that as the science of psychology has learned more about the human mind, psychology can help shape a more constructive time for people in prison.

Raising Awareness about PTSD: A Resource Guide - 0 views

  •  
    Healthcare services for retired military are strained. State-level Veterans Affairs (VA) hospitals are working to rebuild their reputation after the 2014 allegations of widespread patient neglect and long wait times. The responsibility private medical providers have toward veterans is clear - one-third of VA hospitals and clinics report inadequate mental health staff and patients wait an average of eight weeks to see a VA counselor for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Teen Suicide - 1 views

  •  
    I find it very sad that suicide is the third-leading cause of death for teens and young adults. This article is very clear on what signs to watch for, how to address the person if you do see signs and how to get them help. I feel that after reading this article I will feel more comfortable speaking up in a situation if needed. I hope you guys read this and share it with friends and family.

    Kids Health page. Stats and risk factors for teen suicide. Offers warning signs and advises parents what to watch out for.

    D'Arcy Lyness, PhD is the editing body of this article. These are the types of sources you want to use in a paper surely! http://kidshealth.org/media/khexperts/lyness.html This is a link to her accomplishments in field. I believe she is very qualified and this article is highly reputable. However I would like to see some statistics that support some of the claims in the article. I spent about 10 minutes reviewing the information in this article and have found some conflicting information(s). https://www.cdc.gov/violenceprevention/pdf/suicide-datasheet-a.pdf Above is a snap-sheet posted by the CDC summarizing suicide in 2015. The article I am responding to is dated August 15th. In both places the leading cause factor is different. The CDC claims that in ages 15-34 that suicide is the second largest contributing factor to teenage death. The internet is sleezy. I don't know what to believe anymore.

    This is a great article that goes into depth about what causes suicide, what to look out for, etc. Some parents are kind of in the dark about this type of stuff, so it's awesome that such a source exists for parents before it is too late. It makes me sad that it is the third-leading cause of death. A permanent solution to a temporary problem..
  •  
    I agree 101% how terrible it is that this is the third leading cause of death. Life should not be about spending your time planning on how it will end. I am now happy though that I have the right tools to know how to deal with this type of social justice.

Donald Trump and the Triumph of Climate Denial - 1 views

  •  
    Our progress with climate change risk being overturned. A lot of people including our president don't believe in the science of global warming.

    I am so desperate and angry that I wish Mother Nature did something to wake those people up. Maybe a massive earthquake or tsunami will show them how bad of the current state our planet is in.
  •  
    How do you explain the duality of scientific evidence logically pertaining to the results of meta studies both proving and disproving climate change effects and signs?
  •  
    dal2124240, you don't when it pertains to our newly elected administration.
  •  
    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?
  •  
    http://climate.nasa.gov/evidence/. Here you go Dalton. Now, may I ask where you got your "evidence based fact" from, and do you have anymore from any reputable sources?

Security and Human Rights - 1 views

  •  
    The Amnesty International suggests that America should treat human rights respectfully in any movements they make in the reputation of countering terrorism or national security. On the downside, America's political authorities are creating an anti-human rights motive when bringing about counter-terrorism, lethal force, surveillance, Guantanamo, and freedom of expression.
  •  
    No secret that a lot of human rights get violated in the name of National Security. But hard to stop this kind of stuff because it all happens so secretly. By the time we find out its been happening for years.
