Metelanski 2 lied about the scores and then he apologized but in reality he meant to do it because as he stated it “It was for extra credit”. Robert’s point of view on this research was simply “trolling” the people that he did the reasearch on about their “IQ” testing. Later in the story he also gives the test to his Mom and Dad and little did you know he lied to them about the test scores as well. Once again in my opinion Robert’s research did not bring any ethical value to the point of even doing that research. He tested multiple people basically lying to them about their scores and taking advantage of people in order to get extra credit for his “How to be a cop” class. At the end of the episode Robert tells the first two main characters

In conclusion, not only does she effectively contribute to the conversation regarding the decline of creativity and why it happens, but through her efficient usage of ethos, logos, pathos, and kairos, Manoush Zomorodi gives a thoroughly convincing presentation. Weaving these together creates a favorable argument for why taking time to set aside electronic devices boosts creativity. Overall, Zomorodi created a compelling argument that not only convinces her intended audience, but also those who may have initially disagreed with her.
In the newspaper article “He Can Turn a Rescue Dog into a Broadway Star” by Harrison Smith, readers learn how an ordinary dog can become an extraordinary star, with help from experts, and being unique. Nessa, a three year old cairn terrier known by her stage name Toto, Dorothy’s feisty dog from the “Wizard of Oz” is treated just like any other Broadway star with her own dressing room, and stylist and makeup artist.

Olaudah Equiano made this plea. His point in saying this was to call out the people who claimed that they were Christians for their treatment of others. He is saying that if they are truly Christians they should not be treating other people in this way since God said that we should treat others the way that we would personally want to be treated.
Lynn uses the rulings of appellate courts to disprove the myth among pit bull advocates, that pit bulls are unidentifiable. The author begins the article by addressing the case of Ohio v. Anderson, and that it was decided that a dog owner of ordinary intelligence can determine if they own a dog commonly known as a pit bull. Moreover she addresses that pit bull advocates state that pit bulls are unidentifiable and that there is no such thing as a pit bull, and why this argument is not only invalid but misleading and harmful to society. Lynn states that adoption agencies have tried to create different names to signify variating subgenres of the breed in hopes to get pit bulls adopted.
During Dred Scott vs. Sanford (1856), Chief Justice Taney stated that “The words “people of the United States” and “citizens” are synonymous terms” and “The question before us is, whether the [people of African ancestry] compose a portion of this people.” He answered his own question with “We think they are not, and that they are not included, and were not intended to be included, under the word “citizens” in the Constitution.” In 1787, the Constitution was written. “We the People” at the time were elite white males. It didn’t include colored, Natives, women, or impoverished people.
Daniel Garcia TH 1:30-2:50pm March 14, 2017 Advanced Concepts in Criminal Justice From the works of Morenoff and Astor, we are to explain why crime might be higher among second generation immigrant Americans. Though there are many assimilation theories which coincides with this, Portes and Zhou’s theory of segmented assimilation stands up to be the strongest of them all. My reasoning behind it is based on the array of the data from Morenoff and Astor collected in this article and my own interpretation which I experienced first hand. The article shows segmented assimilation branching out to two main scenarios of the straight line assimilation, the positive and the negative. Segmented assimilation is carried though by the immigrants themselves or by their offspring adopting aspects of the culture in which they 're residing in.
In the year 1620, over a hundred people were at the end of their tolerance for having a religion forced upon them. These people set off from England in search of a land where they could escape religious persecution. This trip was to be by boat, going across some of the most dangerous waters. Many people died before they reached what was then called Cape Cod. Once on the land, they faced more hardships.
“Ballistic imaging and microstamping technologies have the potential to reduce gun violence by improving the solve rate of gun-related crimes”(Giffords Law Center). Requiring microstamping and ballistic identification for any and all firearms can help detain and detect the person responsible for any local shootings. Microstamping is a needed adjustment for all firearms. This micro adjustment will enable us to find more evidence that police cannot in crime scenes and help find and track exactly which gun fired the bullet. In a blog posted by Towne Currier he explains the reason for this certain development: “The development of this tool is because of the challenging identification of a firearm due to the multiple sources of randomness present
Driven by the belief that space was bequeathed to them, the Native Americans feel justified in defending their land against the growing encroachment of the white man as the American landscape unfolds. Their motive is the premise that a higher authority has granted them the right to the space, and that the Great Spirit has created the landscape exclusively for them. Fueled by the formation of conflict over land, the Great Ottawa Chief, Pontiac, in his speech at Detroit, seeks to persuade the tribes, including the Ottawa, Huron, and Pottawatomi to agree to resistance. Invoking the words of the Delaware prophet, Neolin, Pontiac recounts the vision which he believes justifies resistance. Neolin urges the tribes to sever all relations to the customs
The Deferred Action for Parents of Americans is an executive action President Barack Obama plans on implementing in order to try and control illegal immigration. Its main goal is to deport illegal immigrants back to their home country who have a criminal history while providing those with a clean record an opportunity “to temporarily stay in the U.S. without fear of deportation” (). A way to be more conducive to an effective change in immigration policies would be to change the acceptance date to January 1st, 2000. DAPA, or also known as the Deferred Action for Parents of Americans, is an initiative requested by President Barack Obama that “would provide approximately 5 million illegal aliens access to work permits and social security cards”
Dr. Bennet Omalu said, “I wish I never met Mike Webster. CTE has driven me into the politics of science, the politics of the NFL. You can’t go against the NFL. They will squash you.” Dr. Bennet is saying the NFL is to powerful and they’re not helping protect their players.
In life some feel the need to prove something to others. That they are better, stronger, or even more intelligent. Whatever the case may be people will go through extreme measures to prove themselves. But who do we really need to prove anything to? Is it our parents?
God knew I would choose to write this paper, because God is omniscient. There is no possible outcome in which I could have chosen to not write this paper and made God’s knowledge false. This is an example of an atheological argument made by Nelson Pike, it essentially states that so long as God is omniscient, humans are unfree to act. According to the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, this state is known as fatalism meaning “human acts occur by necessity and hence are unfree.” Upon evaluating Pike’s argument further, Alvin Plantinga came across what he refers to as a “confusion”.
Sharkey’s main argument says robots dehumanize warfare and the complete ban on further development of autonomous targeting are "the best moral course of action” (799). The first premise states that robots lack three components that impede their ability to discriminate humans. Firstly, robots lack the principle of distinction. They do not have the proper sensory or vision processing systems to recognize civilians and combatants. Secondly, a robot has to follow a procedure written in code.
