America's 10 Worst Prisons: Tent City | Mother Jones - 0 views

  •  
    The jail conditions are really poor in Maricopa county. Some would argue that the conditions are unconstitutional. Rap by fellow prisoners or staff, beaten by guards, driven insane by long-term solitary confinement, or killed off by medical neglect. I understand that criminals shouldn't live in luxury but the conditions that Joe Arpio has the prisoners is not right.

    Should gay marriage be legal? There are many pros and cons to this topic and in our society today it is a huge social justice issue. Should we stick with the traditional way of life where a man and woman get married and have children, or should we branch out and allow everyone the freedom to love and marry whoever they want?

    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.

The Pledge of Allegiance - 3 views

  • September 18, 1892 - The pledge is published for the first time
  •  
    The Pledge of Allegiance timeline from 1892 to 2014 in a nutshell. According to this article the pledge was never really banned from our schools. There was however attempts to remove "under god" from the pledge. I personally would have liked my children to have said the pledge every morning at school just as I did.
  •  
    I did not know the history of The pledge of Allegiance but this is very insightful. Interesting that a Religious group also tried to declare it unconstitutional. Good find!
  •  
    For many kids the Pledge of Allegiance is just tradition at school and for others is a very important quote. It is very interesting how our pledge ask for loyalty and how our kids are learning that since they are little.

Supreme Court: Arizona Law Requiring Proof of Citizenship to Register to Vote Is Uncons... - 1 views

  •  
    The article shows that the Supreme Court overruled the law that people need to proof that they are citizen when they want to vote. There are so many people lost there proof of citizenship by many reasons, and the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 states that citizen just need only one form to prove that they are citizen and they can easily vote
  •  
    For states that border Mexico--like Arizona, of course--I believe that proof of citizenship is required simply to prevent illegal aliens from voting. The number of Mexican citizens who were allowed to vote outweighs the amount of actual citizens who lost their ability to prove nationality.
  •  
    Anywhere people go they should have to show proof of citizenship. If there is illegal immigrants in Arizona Im sure they are in other states as well. I know if I was illegal I would get very far away from the border as possible. I think our citizenship laws should get stricter.
