Rights is that they are enforced by the courts.
From the time they first settled in Virgin and Massachusetts, the
American colonist relied upon the rights enjoyed by Englishmen. The struggle for
independence, however, demonstrated to them that rights not specified and
codified in constitutional documents were insecure. The result was a movement

Brady Act
The Brady Act was approved by Congress in November of 1993 and was then
signed into law by President Clinton later in the month. The act was originally
named for anti gun lobbyist Sarah Brady, and not for former press secretary Jim

Censorship Of The Internet And The Tyranny Of Our Government
.... so why
even try? Cyberspace is the most decentralized form of communication today
making policing the Internet a virtually futile task. Unlike television or
radio, the Internet consists of thousands of individual computers and networks,
with thousands of speakers, information providers and information users, and no
centralized distribution point (ACLU vs. Reno Brief 1). No guards watch to see
who goes where and if that place is appropriate. The Internet has grown to be a
global network. Just because o .....

Censorship And The First Amendment: The American Citizen's Right To Free Speech

concerns occur, on account of special interest groups that are fighting to
change the freedom of expression, the right to freely represent individual
thoughts, feelings, and views, in order to protect their families as well as
others. These groups, religious or otherwise, believe that publishing
unorthodox material is an abuse of free expression under the First Amendment.
As we will come to find, our Supreme Court system plays an exceedingly important

Why The End Of Integration?
.... hassle than a helper. There were many revolts from parents making
situations even more horrible. Most students wanted to go to their neighborhood
schools and not be bussed for long trips to attend a 'better' school. In Seattle
the school board unanimously voted to "avoid race-based school assignment and
increase enrollment in schools closer to home."(Lilly) The busing plan was not
working and soon many schools were trying to deactivate this maneuver. "There is
evidence that federal courts are realizing th .....

Declining Trust In Our Government

and is this distrust of our government even a serious problem at all? These are
three questions that need to be addressed in out society today.
What really has caused the American people to distrust our government and
when did this trend actually begin? I do not believe there is any clear answer
to these questions and I do not believe it would ever be possible to pinpoint
any exact reason for the feelings of the American people. One reason cited by
some .....

Driving Laws In India

Use of horn:
Cars (IV, 1, a-c): Short blasts indicate supremacy, i.e. in clearing
dogs, rickshaws and pedestrians from path. Long blasts denote supplication, i.e.
to oncoming truck, "I am going too fast to stop, so unless you slow down we
shall both die". In extreme cases this may be accompanied by flashing of
headlights. Single casual blast means "I have seen someone out of India's 870
million people whom I recognize", "There is a bird in the road (which at this
speed could go through my windscr .....

What Wrongs Have White Administrators Done To Aborginal People In The Past? Have All Wrong Been Righted?
.... to feel ashamed of their race and heir
colour. "In a deliberate and callous attempt to conceal their cultural
identity," Aboriginal children were taken from the families an forcibly placed
in an institution and were denied further contact with their families.
(Aboriginal legal service, 1995 pp ii)
For white Australia, the feeling of responsibility, shame, apologetic
and sympathetic for what their past people have done to the Aboriginals. The
Aboriginals feeling anguished, rejected and feeling in a senc .....

Affirmative Action
.... why he was not chosen, was because of the
color of his skin. Since he is Asian, they could not hire him, because 50%
of their employees are Asian. Under the affirmative action, they must
employ someone who is underrepresented. This type of situation happens
often. It is not the qualifications, but the color of the skin that
employers look for today. Affirmative action is a step backwards. We are
back to color and race differences. We are all Americans and should be
treated as so, not what ethni .....

Government Cutbacks

numbers, it is not unusual to see a class have an average of 35 students.
With the larger class sizes, you create a balance for the students. On the
one side, you have the very smart kids. In the middle, you have the average
kids. And on the other side, you have the kids that have a lot of potential,
but they need the attention to succeed. The smart ones will be fine, the
average ones will likely sneak through, the ones that is going to have the
worst time of all, and who .....

Response To Wilson's "Just Take Away Their Guns"
.... at someone and tell if they are carrying a gun
or not. That is ridiculous. Just because of the way someone looks doesn't
mean that they are carrying a gun. What criteria should be used to
determine if someone looks like when they are carrying a gun? Do they put
on baggy pants with a do-rag before they put the gun in their pants or
pocket? As of right now, there is not one, and never will be one. I know
many people that carry guns that probably would be stopped because of the
way they look. They lo .....
