.... matters into their own hands. They felt extremely betrayed by the U.S. government. As one supporting web-site claimed, "The movement provided for the people of the south the leadership and rallying point to begin their arduous struggle to regain their lost dignity and indeed, the values of Western Civilization." They began their protest by lynching, tar and feathering, whipping, beating, and killing African Americans in the south. Because Blacks had been given rights, the Klan felt it was their duty to prevent the former slaves from using them. For years, the harassment from the was successful. Until the civil rights movement of the 60's, it seemed as if .....

.... Everyone in America has the right to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of happiness. If any of these rights are taken away then you have the right to go to court. There are many different types of courts. there is a District court, a Circuit court, (the only one with a jury) , a Special Appeals court, and an Appeals court.

.... have allowed the United States to show off it's strength, both on the military and political level. It has also given the chance for America to evaluate it's foreign policy, but can the World Super-Power continue to police other countries in light of earlier battles, or should the stationed troops pack up and home for good. Americans have always been overseas, protecting or overseeing the peace of another country. During the Monroe administration many US Policies were established, some of which are still in effect today. The Monroe Doctrine, passed into law by Congress under Monroe, has forced the United States to get into so many conflicts with neighbor .....

.... who might once have been pretty. She has several small children, no job skills, and is economically dependent on her husband. It is frequently assumed that she is poor and from a minority group. She is accustomed to living in violence, and her fearfulness and passivity are emphasized above all.

.... of gamblers who become problem or pathological (compulsive) gamblers, however, it can be a devastating illness that negatively affects every aspect of their lives. I’m worried that the more legalized gambling “havens” that open up, the more problems we can expect as a result of them.

In 1994, there were 235 calls to the Gambling Anonymous hotline and in 1995 (after the casino opened), there were 588. In 1997, the state of Connec .....

.... have the same rights the as cats and dogs including the right to be killed humanely. Just because some fourth world country is known to eat these animals does not mean that we should hop on this band wagon. This animal is not a delicacy in this or any other country. The people in these countries eat these animals because of economic slums and or food shortage. When these conditions are present horse is not the only animal these people resort to for sustenance they also eat dog and other animals that are uncommonly consumed in the United States. Our country should not stoop to the slaughtering horses for human consumption for sale and/ or export to foreign cou .....

.... the American automotive industry was at its apex. Americans fell behind during this boom because of inadequate production capacity. The Japanese had identified the machine industry as a growing industry and invested in modernization of technology. Consequently, Japanese technology was better and costs were lower. When a recession hit in 1980-1981, American firms had little capital to invest, and thus could not modernize their equipment. The industries that are going to survive in the future are those that have the most efficient computerized operations and that produce the cheapest, most reliable products. The Japanese have this edge and the American machi .....
