Plausible bigotry in the criminal justice system

Over two decades ago, a bystander recorded Los Angeles police officers brutally beating an African American man, Rodney King. Members of the African American community had long trumpeted police abuse; with the videotape, these hopefully had enough evidence to crystallize their accusations against the “white-controlled” police force. But at the trial, the jury absolved the four of using inordinate force; the city was engulfed in a riot. Though two of the officers were eventually convicted in Federal court, the case according to African American community leaders shows the extreme difficulty for members of racial minorities to obtain justice ...

Years after the attack and several first hand interviews of the attackers, it can be proven that the attacks were related to the American wrongdoings related to their foreign policy such as, supporting Israel, poor ...

In Andy Meek’s article, “DDoS attacks are getting much more powerful and the Pentagon is scrambling for solutions,” the ongoing and increasingly pervasive threat of DDoS attacks is characterized as the most important type of cyber assault that the government and the international security community should concern themselves with. However, it is difficult, says Meek, to develop the kinds of tools that would allow organizations to recover from these kinds of attacks in a short period of time. Meek describes the increasing number of DDoS attacks across the Internet in recent years, with the groups committing these attacks ...

Law enforcement officers on the streets need to come across people that are either hurt, injured or they can be criminals that are armed and can attack or harm them. In their defense, these officers might need to attack as well, and that may cause contact with blood or exchange through droplets in the air, and if any person is infected with a blood-borne disease, then they are at risk to catch the disease as well. (The Workplace Safety Store, 2012). As it happens, diseases such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C and most importantly HIV are very common in ...

The use of an IT network can expose an organization to various risk factors that may prevent the organization from attaining its objectives. The occurrences of the risks are dependent on the size, nature, type of the network, and the number of people using the system (Sandvick, 2013). A risk environment can be low, medium, or high. It is hence important for an organization to adopt a risk assessment and provide solutions or recommendations for the possible risks identified. This paper gives the reader an insight into possible risks that can be experienced in an IT network environment.

The two main factors in the formation of the United States as a sovereign country were the American Revolutionary War in 1775 and the American Civil War in 1861. In both cases, it was a struggle for independence and unity against the oppressive regime. In first case it was a struggle of the 13 British colonies against Britain and its loyalists (colonists who remained loyal to the Crown) between the Patriots (ordinary Americans). In second case, it was a war between the Americans from the North with freed or escaped slaves and the Americans of the South with slaves. ...

One character whose story resonated with me as I watched the film is the narrator. Just like him, I have been concerned to find out more about the truth on the Muslim faith because many perspectives exist on the issue. Some of the stereotypes I have about Arab people and Muslims include the fact that they are viewed as brutal people, thieves, charlatans and murderers. Muslims are also perceived by many as selfish and hardliners. What I learnt about Arab culture from the film is that it is very patriarchal and holds to beliefs that violate the rights of ...

Cabir is a malware that started as the very first virus which was designed to attack smartphones. Before that time, which was precisely in the month of June 2004, the concept of malware attack was only limited to the PC. The virus was originally named Caribe by its developers, but the researchers didn’t want that name to stick. This is because the researchers took great pleasure in renaming the virus with names that they came up with after the virus had been introduced under the name of its programmer. This is so that it does not fuel the ...

ATTENTION GETTER: Author Thomas Dekker once said that “sleep is that golden chain that ties health and our bodies together” (“Thomas Dekker”). True enough, good sleep is an important factor in the achievement of good health; thus, everybody longs for it. For those who struggle to get a good sleep, sleeping drugs or sleeping pills become their only source of hope. Sleeping drugs help to take away ordinariness of daily routine and allow obtaining sound sleep. An ideal sleeping pill should induce good quality and indistinguishable sleep experience. Unfortunately, modern drugs do not produce this result, and in fact, ...

Kamikaze was a special attack troop by the Japanese, which used suicide methods to attack the enemy. One of the forms of attack included using their planes to ram into the enemies fuselage or even into a warship when they ran out of firepower. This idea as adopted towards the end of the war as Japan had the inferior technology to the United States and was desperate enough to turn the tide against the Allies. The idea was proposed by a high ranking Japanese Captain Motoharu Okamura, who asked for 300 planes (Wolff et. al, 1980). Fortunately, there were ...

Notably, the abuse of older people has been observed to gain ground in recent times. The minority groups have mostly been on the receiving end and, in particular, the Hispanic community. In general, the abuse of older people may either exist as an act of omission which is also referred to as neglect or as an act of commission (Rodriguez, 2015). The harm may be intentional or unintentional. Such abuses occur in physical, psychological or financial forms. Whichever the case, such abuses are likely to result in sufferings, pain and injuries which would have been prevented in the first ...

Fear is a relative term, at least from the human perspective. This suggests that humanity has experienced its own sets of fears, depending on the prevailing dangers of a particular physical environment and epoch. In this regard, it has always been common knowledge that survival is an integral part of every species, including the Homo sapiens, and that compromising the sense of safety of animals and humans is most likely to instigate a reaction of fear. As such, it can also be said that fear is a beneficial aspect of existence, given that it triggers reactions of alertness, fighting ...

A war of independence is commonly considered as a justified action, accumulating the struggling of one nation against another. The Texas Revolution, however, represents a peculiar exception to this patterned characteristic of these military conflicts. This event, crucial for Texas, is considered either in a negative way, accusing Texans and Americans of expansion of Mexican territory, or even passed over in silence. At the time when Texas began inhabited by Americans and Europeans at the invitation of the Spanish authorities, the Spanish themselves expelled its small Texas population, accusing it of treason during the years of 1810-1821s (Beisner, American ...

Principles of War

The Battle of Chipyong-ni was a war held in Korea where the American and French armies were readily attacking the Chinese, who had invaded Korea with their intentions rather unclear. The war took place between 13 and 15 February 1951 and is probably one of the shortest yet most memorable battles of the 20th century. One of the major principles of war that has been highlighted by the Battle of Chipyong-ni is the need to attack the enemy during the nightfall. American troops learned the hard way that the best time to attack was at dusk after an ambush ...

Throughout its history America, like many other countries, has outlasted a number of wars and military conflicts, both internal and international. One of such conflicts was the War of 1812 between the United States and United Kingdom. It lasted two and a half years and ended only in 1815. In America the war of 1812 is known as the Second Independence War, an event that significantly improved national identity of citizens of the country. The aim of this work is to elucidate the main reasons of the war, its principal developments, results, and outcomes. In 1807, Great Britain prohibited ...

The Washington Post article, “As drug industry’s influence over research grows, so does the potential for bias” by Peter Whorisky is an eye-opener on how pharmaceutical funded research is tailored to benefit the industry rather than reveal reality (Whoriskey, 2016). Various examples were cited in this article, like: The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) published a work that compared the benefits of four diabetic drugs and found that the new drug Avandia (made by GlaxoSmithKline), was the best among the four (Kahn et al., 2006). The study was funded by GlaxoSmithKline. According to Whoriskey, this study was ...

While the bulk collection of phone record has been over, its restoration is the most optimal decision since there are no software program adequately replacing the wiretapping system, which is what makes the solution so important minimizing the vulnerability of the United States. Of course, there are ethical concerns; however, a saved human life is the best argument to consider ethicality a conventionality avoided for a greater good. Financially, the country is on the winning side, as are its citizens. The economic weight and irreplaceability of the USA is unlikely to damage the finances due to wiretapping concerns. Wiretapping ...

Social Engineering Concepts and Examples with Prevention Methods

Social engineering is one of the most critical aspects of cybersecurity since many attacks are arising from it rather than the traditional technical hackings. It is easy to manipulate people directly than to crack systems, thus makes social engineering the most used method of social attacks with an ever changing landscape in terms of methods of resolving it. This paper discusses two examples of social engineering and compares it to social engineering attacks view by two authors under reference and methods that could have prevented the attacks.

Introduction

Terrorism has an enormous dependence on surprise. As a result, a terror attack has the massive potential of causing damages to an unprepared, as well as, unwitting target. It, therefore, follows that America through its agencies such as NCTC must take appropriate measures to avoid surprise attacks as the September eleventh one. For purposes of securing its homeland, setting up intelligence, as well as, warning systems which can detect terrorist activities before their manifestation has been instrumental towards curtailing the attacks in the United States. In essence, the discussion below will center on NCTC and ways of mitigating the ...

The Disarmament Committee,

We are deeply concerned about the rebels’ capability and aware that disarmament of involved parties will bring justice and peace to many nations around the world. We are reaffirming the disarmament effort, emphasizing the importance of the ratified Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty or NTP in relation to the post-revolutionary countries, such as Libya. We are guided by the fact that Africa, along with Belarus, Ukraine, and Kazakhstan are among the few nations that previously had nuclear weapons, but were disarmed and membered themselves as non-nuclear parties of the NPT. The Committee is seeking a continuous effort towards maintaining the stability ...

Introduction

The Byzantine Empire was one of the longest reigning empires that lasted for 12 centuries from 332 to 1453 AD. In their prime, Byzantine Empire was the envy of the western world and Eastern kingdoms due to their strong economy, architecture, politics and military. But over time, problems started to creep into the Byzantine Empire most of which was based on their weakening economy and military. The contraction of the Byzantine Empire was due to the continuous array of religious enemies and internal decay that destroyed the empire. Between the Fourth Crusade of 1204 and the last Ottoman Turkish ...

Terrorism, however, is not an average crime. To be sure, terrorism is a specific type of criminal activity, commonly known as a transnational crime. Whereas most criminal acts are local in nature; transnational crimes can be local, national and global at the same time (Luban et al., 2010). Indeed, while a robbery on a San Francisco street would only require the attention of city criminal justice actors; the recent terrorist attack in San Bernardino not only involved local police but also the FBI, the Department of State, as well as authorities in Pakistan. In short, terrorism is criminal activity ...

Foreign policy is the way the United States interacts with other nations. It sets standards and rules of interactions for businesses and individual citizens. The official goal of the United States foreign policy is to build and sustain a better world for both American and international people.

The Mammy played a role of the mother or mentor for her white employers and often cared about them more than about herself or her own family. The Brash Women or Saphire is an opposite stereotype. This is a type of “rude, loud, malicious, stubborn, ...
