They are already profiled as criminals due to how they look and where they live. They have to follow the rules of their environment in order to live their lives normally or even to survive day to day.

In Andre Dubus's short story "The Intruder", Dubus tells a story of a young boy losing his innocence to protect his sister's, while struggling to find his place between boyhood and manhood. The young boy, who is named Kenneth, can be associated with many biblical allusions concerning the scenarios he is put in. In "The Intruder", Kenneth's relationship with Connie is being intruded on and he must protect it with his gun, the only symbol of manliness and power he has. In some ways, Kenneth can be portrayed as a Christ figure because of his sacrifice for his sister like Jesus did for the world. Kenneth can be seen as many things, but all he wants to be is a manly hero.

Boyz N the Hood, directed by John Singleton is one in many films to showcase the harsh reality of African Americans living in the “hood”. Hood films, as characterized by an identifiable urban setting, such as New York or Los Angeles, and within a modern time frame, use themes of hip hop culture to highlight the issues that plague urban minority communities (Massood 145). Singleton, with Boyz N the Hood, offers a commentary on the harsh experience of young, urban black males by demonstrating the issues faced by these young men, namely lack of upward mobility and cyclical and internal violence. One of the main issues highlighted in the film that plague the communities of young, urban black men is a lack of upward mobility. Social theory has

The Operations Superintendent would have OPCON and TACON as well. Making small changes to how we operate as an organization to become more effective in daily operations would be TACON. The flight chief is the best example of TACON as they run the flight who is conducting the daily operations. They are told to conduct guardmount, but they are not told in what order they conduct their briefings or what type of information needs to be briefed every day. They also assign who gets posted at each location for the day. OPCON would be the post priority chart that tells the flight chief which posts are the most important and require the most manpower. TACON is used when the flight chief decided who will work the most important post and who will work the gates. Below is a flow chart to help you understand how OPCON and TACON blend together (Figure 1-1). ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL (ADCON) Administrative Control is the direction or exercise of authority over subordinate or other organizations in respect to administration and support, including organization of Service forces, control of resources and equipment, personnel management, unit logistics, individual and unit training, readiness, mobilization, demobilization, discipline, and other matters not included in the operational missions of the subordinate or other organizations. ADCON is mostly the responsibility of the Service Chiefs and Secretaries. However, some functional areas can also utilize ADCON. CONCLUSION Understanding

The Pakistani government was involved in an attack on Mumbai that killed over one hundred and fifty people. The captured militants who executed the attack were never brought to proper justice, an incarcerated terrorist confessed that Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence agency aided the attack, and the Pakistani government freed the militant group’s commander for no plausible reason. Pakistan has denied all accusations of its’ involvement but evidence shows that they played a key role in this devastating siege.

Seeing that African-Americans did not have the capability of obtaining mortgages for suburban residencies, speculators and real estate agents exploited this and created the business process of blockbusting. Blockbusting was an inequitable strategy in which speculators “bought properties in borderline black-white areas; rented or sold them to African-American families at above-market prices; persuaded white families residing in these areas that their neighborhoods were turning into African-American slums and that values would fall apart precipitously” (Rothstein, 2017, pg. 95). In order for whites fall for this, tactics were used in favor of the speculators. “Blockbusters' tactics included hiring African-American women to push carriages with

On the night of November 12, Dak To received its first direct attack, a mortar barrage of forty-four rounds. Several vehicles were damaged and two men wounded.

The example of Aum Shinrikyo demonstrates that CBRN attacks require enourmous investments, without any guarantee of success. Aum Shinrikyo was a well financed and well coordinated terrorist organization totaling between $300 million and $1 billion dollars and some 10,000 to 60,000 members including expert scientists. Despite its intellectual and financial resources, the group failed on several occasions to disseminate biological agents prior to 1995. Furthermore, the sarin attack failed because of the weakness of their delivery mechanism, which only caused 12 casualties while it could have created thousands.

Denial of Service (DoS) attack is a very common cyber menace that renders websites and other online means inaccessible to intended users.

International law is “defined as a body of rules established by custom or treaty and recognized by nations as binding in their relations with one another” ( UN 2013). It was created by the countries in the United Nations to ensure that sovereignty states are working together to promote peace and stability in regards to international relations (UN 2013). Since its creation, international law has allowed for countries to work together cooperatively, although there have been some conflicts between countries. These conflicts, however, have not grown to interrupt the stability in the international system, nor have they put into question the ultimate power of the world’s global leader, the United States. Over the last two years, the ISIS terror group in the Middle East and the Ukraine Crisis in regards to the European Union, has led many to look at the United States to help in the situation and even question their ability to help in these two international conflicts. Based on this, it can be concluded that problems such as ISIS and the Ukraine Crisis are actual rebellions against the international law since they pose a major threat to the international system, however, the involvement of the United States is not necessary to resolve their conflict.
