Irving, Texas ( Ap )

Imagine a place where past and present meet, a place where there are many cultures and a myriad of things to do. El Paso, Texas is just that, a place where cultures don't clash, but, instead, mix. Although some might see El Paso as a ghost town filled with run-down building in the middle of nowhere, this city is replete with fun activities. El Paso presents a great escape, gives vast job opportunities to young people, and offers wonderfully affordable housing.

The use of less lethal weapons that are approved by TDCJ are by using restraints, protective equipment, chemical agents, and less than lethal ammunition. The restraints are defined as a measure or condition that keeps someone or something under control or within limits. Restraints in corrections system are used to escort offenders from place to place and controlling the offenders. The restraints that are approved by TDCJ are hand and leg restraint cuffs and a belt restraint. The officer puts on the hand and leg restraint cuffs which are a pair of lockable linked metal rings hooked together with a chain that is approximately four inches long for hands and twelve inches long for legs. Then belt restraint are used as a strong wrap around the offenders waist that has chains that connect the hand and leg restraint cuffs to the belt restraint. These restraints together keep the offender from having full mobility. Which according to most studies, it has helped prevent attacks on officers (Smith,R.2009). The use of protective equipment such as riot helmets, riot shields, riot batons, and stab vest. These protective equipment are mainly used when an offender or offenders are causing a violent public disturbance, or riot; it was to calm the violent offenders, yet protect the officers from being injured or killed. By having the riot helmets, shields, and batons helps

What could be better for the young, professional singles flocking to the area, or the retirees wanting to skip the lawn maintenance for a freer lifestyle? Downtown Dallas is Hot spots in the downtown Dallas vicinity include West Village and Mockingbird Station (closer to East Dallas).

In the TED talk “What does it mean to be Muslim” a speech by Dalia Mogahed. The 9/11 attack had proven that “Not only had my country been attacked, but in a flash, somebody else's actions had turned me from a citizen to a suspect” (Mogahed). This proves that if any one person of your race does something wrong it will affect everyone of that race not only you. People can be affected by your actions even if they have nothing to do with you. You cannot blame one incident from one person on the whole race. There is no possible way that a whole race could get together and plan something as brutal as a terrorist attack. There are many bad people in the world but you can't blame the action of one person on the whole race. People can be affected

In the 1870’s, the Unassigned Lands in the part of the Oklahoma Territory that would become Norman, Oklahoma was a sight to behold. Just north of the North Canadian River, which is the main tributary of the Canadian River, which in turn is the largest tributary of the Arkansas River, Abner Ernest Norman led his federal surveying crew to what would develop into the town bearing his namesake. “Norman, a 23-year-old surveyor from Kentucky, was hired to oversee part of this project. Norman’s work crew set up camp near what is today the corner of Classen and Lindsey streets; it was there that the men, perhaps jokingly, carved a sign on an elm tree that read “Norman’s Camp,” in honor of their young boss.” (Mills)

No student should have to suffer unfair consequences due to a teacher’s political view or the harassment of other students based on their background. This research paper will discuss the mistreatment of American Muslims before high school up until college, that includes elements such as subconscious harassment at a young age, instructors’ political views, direct attacks, and fear for their safety. It will also explain the differences between non-Muslim bullying versus Muslim bullying.

The fact that the court has tried this officer will continue to warrant safer staff and safer schools. Most students would agree that some staff at their school gets out of hand but this case can keep the staff on their toes about how they handle students. The students are at school to feel safe and learn, and with these actions students would be scared to say anything. Students are that environment to learn from their mistakes and if their mistakes are warrant for arrest why would kids ever want to go to school? Especially for kids with disabilities or special needs, that’s a lot to handle and take on at such a young age and the officers at school need to be aware of student with those

Another significant reason why the guard is to blame is because of the guard’s actions at Kent State during that dramatic weekend. The guard handled the situation very unprofessionally and unfairly at Kent State. For starters, the guard should have never been so forceful with students over a peaceful assembly. The guard used tear gas and force to disperse a crowd of young college students (“The Kent State Shootings: May 4, 1970”). Despite all of the accusations made by the officers, there are still not any justified reasons for the shootings: All of the officers claims have been disproved. For example, the guards thought the protests were illegal, but the ban on assemblies was signed into effect until May 5, making the assembly, in the students’ eyes, legal (“Four Students Killed”).

The city that I have chosen for my report is Dallas, Texas. Dallas is located in north central Texas on the Trinity River. I have chosen this city because I am from the north Texas area and will hopefully have a great job waiting for me in the Dallas area one day. I am also a huge Dallas sports fan, and I can’t wait until the new season starts. Many interesting things have happened in Dallas over the life of the city. Some famous TV shows were filmed in Dallas, Texas like Prison Break and Dallas. The episode of the TV show Dallas is famous for the episode titled “Who Done It” which remains the second highest prime-time telecast ever. Dallas is also the home to the first ever microchip that was invented at Texas Instruments by employee Jack s. Kilby in 1958. Dallas also knows how to have a good time, and history proves this because the first margarita machine as invented by a restaurateur Mariano Martinez over four decades ago. And lastly the Galleria Mall in Dallas is home to the tallest Christmas tree. It has almost 250,000 lights and over 10,000 ornaments on it each year. Dallas is also the place where President John F. Kennedy was shot.

Can you imagine what it is like being arrested at the age of 14? What about being accused of crafting a lethal roadside bomb? Muslim 14-year-old Ahmed Mohamed came to school one day with a case that contained a deconstructed clock he was working on. The case had wires hanging out so Ahmed’s English teacher became suspicious and contacted the authorities. When Ahmed was being questioned, all he said was that he “made a clock”. After being released from custody, Ahmed’s father took the situation to federal court and big names, such as Mark Cuban. President Barrack Obama gave a live speech to reach out and support Ahmed, whose charges were dropped immediately. This controversy made national news and sparked conversation all over the country. Were

September 11th holds many hard and upset feelings around the world today. The harsh actions of Muslim extremists unfortunately completely changed the way Muslims are treated, especially in the United States. These events, exacerbated islamophobia. Unfortunately, “the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, connect Muslims and Islam to terrorism within the geographical borders of the United States.” (Byng) Although it has been over a decade since the attack, many still feel racist and discriminatory attitudes towards Muslims. Muslims are the targeted minority in the United States, “the 9/11 terrorist attacks shifted the social and political context for Muslims in the United States. Terrorism within the geographical borders of the United States carried out by Muslims places an identity at the center of national and global politics.” (Byng) The blame of the horrible terrorist attacks, rather than be placed on terrorists or religious extremist, has been placed on Islam in America. After September 11th, hate crimes towards Muslims skyrocketed, “the most dramatic change noted by the report was a more than 1,600 percent increase in reported hate crimes against Muslims -- a jump from 28 hate incidents in 2000 to 481 last year.”

Hate crimes against mosques are an extensive exigence because the mosque is where Muslim people pray and feel safe. According to Aisha Stacey “A mosque is the building in which Muslims worship God.”(Stacy, no page number) After seeing the video carefully “ Muslim leaders speak out after Mosque fire.” Throughout the video I have identified different types of rhetorical stratergies they use, which included credibility and emotions. The leaders of the mosque are credible because they are imams, and the imams of the mosque was the speaker in the video, imams are a religious leader. They created pathos because they are Muslims and they feel and can express the pain of when there is a hate crime against a mosque. This is not the only way Muslims can endure hate

Sometimes one may think that we are safe in our community or city and that we are protected and united as a whole but sometimes it is not like that for us many behavioral changes have interfered with children and school and they take out their anger with someone who is innocent and later do not realize that what they did could or have been a crime most of that situation is taken onto parents and how they are responsible for the actions that their kids make. Often the situation might have to be taken up with the judge at a court. Over the years there has been many reportings or cases with students who think that they can solve problems through violence and vicious crimes most of the time it always results with a person getting hurt or deceased. In fact, parents should be held responsible for the crimes of their kids,
