Shia Labeouf Research Papers

With the release of his first record, he also got his first arrest. As one Tupac fan once put it, he never had a record until he released a record. The first of his many offences was in 1991, when he was arrested for jaywalking and resisting arrest. Claiming police brutality he filed a public suit against the police department. In 1992, during a confrontation with old acquaintances at a festival celebrating Marin City’s fiftieth anniversary, a 6-year-old boy was shot in the head. No criminal charges where filed, but there was a civil suit. During the same year a Texas women filed a civil suit against him claiming that the young black male who killed her husband, a cop, had been influenced by Tupac’s music. Also in 1992, Tupac arrived at the FOX Studios to tape a segment when he claims his “limo driver disrespected my homeboy, screaming at him like he was less than a man. The limo driver went to his trunk, we didn’t know if the guy was getting a gun or what (Tupac Shakur(1992) ).” Tupac and his friends jumped out of the car and allegedly attacked the driver. Charges where later dropped. The next charge to come was in 1993 when Tupac was engaged in a fight with directors Albert and Allen Hughes over the loss of a role in “Menace 2 Society”. Also in 1993, on Halloween, Tupac was arrested for shooting at two off-duty, white, police officers.

Conflict theory is a term that is being used to help us, people, to understand how and why a model of behaviors, norms, inequality, powers, ideology, values that characterize our social system is happing or have happened over time. This theory focuses on people the way that they act. It has been believed that people tend to do things that are interest others. For instance, Stanly A. Deetz who wrote Democracy In An Age Of Corporate Colonization views theory as a lens and a way of seeing the world. Yet, it tends to direct our attention toward making useful feedback with the social system responded. A common example that Deetz mentions in his book is the relationship between mangers and workers of the corporations. A manger would want the highest profits, while the worker would want the highest wages. This tends to start a conflict of goal and a definition of what the politics look like of everyday life in a corporate colonization. Conflict they is one-way of seeing what is going on around us, it’s the process of categorizing the society, the culture and the human’s life.

Since when is the punishment a person receives dependent on the amount of money they have and not the severity of the crime. With this philosophy guilty billionaires can commit murder with no repercussions except a slap on the wrist whereas innocent citizens that can’t afford a lawyer are being put away in jail for petty crimes. Yes, celebrities have earnt the money by choosing a business that pays thousands for an attractive person that can sing but why are we allowing these people to believe that they are above the law? Because the government is

Some members of society would push the boundaries by saying that “famed” felons, like Jeremy Meeks, who have leaped into fame are role

The award winning actor Robin Williams died at the age of 63 by suicide. He had suffered from severe depression, addiction, and bipolar disorder for a portion of his adult life as a comedian. The media portrays many of these diagnoses to be depraved and caused by a lack of one taking care of themselves in the western culture; however, this is not always the case with most mental illness diagnoses. The awareness of mental health disorders has grown significantly in the public’s eyes in the past few decades, partly contributed to medical science advancements and the rest is due to celebrities in our culture bringing awareness to the public. Even with more mindfulness than ever before about mental health there is still much to learn and teach about mental health so that we can prevent mental illnesses ending in suicide.

Dave Chappelle is returning to the stage this fall for a 17-date tour run. The tour will travel to small clubs in the US, and it will begin on September 14th in Salt Lake City (UT).

I came across the trailer for this film on youtube knowing nothing but who Orson Welles was - not the director, what it was about, when it came out, or how critics had responded. Of course I recognized Zac Efron having been in the receiving age group of the Disney Channel Soul Suckers (kidding, but only just), his existence went right over my head and I was instead drawn to Christian McKay (who at the time of this review still has a startlingly slim imdb record *cough* SOMEONE GIVE THE MAN A LEAD IN EVERY MOVIE THERE IS GOING TO BE *uncough*) - because in the two and a half minutes the trailer had to sway me I was convinced that he was already a very accomplished veteran actor I had somehow missed. I found a link, watched the movie online, and bought it the very next day.

Just last Monday I did my homework later than I shouldn’t have been doing it, and my mom saw. I wasn’t a problem waking up in the morning and I got all of my homework done, but I got my phone taken away. Getting my phone taken away wasn’t very fair considering I didn’t oppose a problem. Also, bullying is a common thing that goes unjustified. A victim of bullying may go to a teacher for help, but not much is done to stop it, so the bully continues to pester the victim. We see justices and injustices all over the news. This person killed someone, that person robbed someone, so and so was caught doing drugs, then they go to jail. Celebrities often times are accused of crimes, but because of their popularity they escape any consequences. More recently, many people in Hollywood have been accused of sexual harassment. If the accusations are true, will any of them face consequences? They all are famous people, with very good lawyers. Celebrities not facing consequences is an injustice because the average person would have to face real consequences to their actions, but these celebrities avoid them.

Multiplicity of people believes that celebrities need to have a sly-out toward facing crimes. However, celebrities’ need to abide enlightened that they are inspirational to little kids, fans, and parents. Why should celebrities’ receive the benefit of the doubt while, people that are not celebrities, be punished and to be charged for every movement and action that they

“I don’t think human beings learn anything without desperation. Desperation is a necessary ingredient to learning anything, or creating anything. Period. If you ain't desperate at some point, you ain't interesting.” – Jim Carrey (http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/j/jim_carrey.html)

Robin Williams was a world known, brilliant actor, a loving father and a caring husband. But despite Williams’ smiling face, unbelievable talent and humor, he had terrible, private struggles.

Prior to this article I had not considered that crime persecution could directly be related to social class. It was only after I had read this article that I came to the realization that in many cases celebrities are treated unfairly and do not receive proper punishment for crimes committed. In addition, the homeless –one of the lowest classes in society– are viewed as a bother and as nuisance to society and are frequently accused of committing crimes simply because they are a lower class, regardless of whether the crime was actually

A powerful lawyer plus a significant amount of money equals a non guilty verdict. When the quality of a lawyer is superb, the lawyer will more than likely only work for those who can pay for superbness. Celebrities can afford to pay the hefty fee of a noteworthy lawyer. Not being able to pay an experienced lawyer and being stuck with a public defense lawyer lowers the chance the average persons’ chance to get away with crime. Public defense attorneys rarely care about the outcome of the trial but the emolument that comes along with it. Laurie Levenson, a Loyola law professor, stated, “It may be as difficult to put a multimillionaire in prison as it is to put a camel through the eye of the needle.” (Deutsch) The odds of a celebrity ending up in prison is quite slim. There should not be a price on freedom, everyone either serves their desired time or they fix themselves in rehab, but everyone should have the same opportunity. Celebrities obviously have a significant amount of money to spend on their trials, and in the end it pays off. Incarcerated family members have family that they have not spoken to or seen in years because they could not afford an adequate lawyer to cover their cases. “A study shown in Crain’s New York Business’s article, in contract cases alone, 9% of the defendants who went to trial did so without a lawyer because of a lack of funds needed to hire legal representation.” (Rivkin) The lawyers that cost the most are more likely those who succeed in the court room. Celebrities deserve the same penance as normal
