Summary Of Mark Berman's In The Washington Post

Protests riots in the United States has proven to an issue for both the country’s financial strength and the unity of the nation. With the presence of social injustices, combined with the increased impact of social media propaganda, protests riots are beginning to reach an all time high. Protest riots destroy individual communities and businesses, jeopardizes the safety of others and taints the protest’s cause by resorting to civil disobedience. Action must be done in order to prevent these random acts of violence from continuing after every social hot topic. The goal is not to prevent citizens from protesting; in fact, this should be encouraged. The goal is to change the way the protests are handled from both the citizens and authority perspectives, in order to prevent these protests from escalating into something dangerous.

Review of Hardball by Chris Matthews Before I started reading the book Hardball, by Chris Matthews, I had a preconceived idea of what the content of this book would be. From the title of the book I drew the conclusion that Matthews would write more about the darker side of politics

These events of the election lead me to ask Alejandra and Fernando about the anti-protest that have been bursting out all over the country. I asked Alejandra and Fernando how they feel about them and if they had participated in an any of the protest. (Fernando) – “Well right after

When Marc Anthony addressed the crowd of plebeians, he purposely and subliminally incited violence. As he spoke about the death and murderers of Julius Caesar, he claimed, “I fear I wrong the honorable men whose daggers have stabbed Caesar. I do fear it” (JC III.ii.152-153). By constantly mentioning that Brutus and Cassius were “honorable men,” Marc Anthony put forward the idea that maybe they weren’t as honorable as they claimed to be, since they killed the beloved Caesar for things he hadn’t committed. To persuade and manipulate weak minded and uneducated individuals such as the plebeians, Marc Anthony used Julius Caesar’s stab wounds as visual representation. After showing the crowd what the conspirators had physically done to Julius Caesar, he continued by telling them “good friends, sweet friends! Let me not stir you up to such a sudden flood of mutiny. They that have done this deed are honorable” (JC III.ii.211-213). Like Marc Anthony, Donald Trump also took advantage of people’s emotions and subliminally encouraged the use of violence against those who presented themselves as enemies and opposed their beliefs. Trump supporters and protesters would often clash at his rallies and instead of convincing his supports to stop participating in those kinds of behavior, he encouraged it. On February 1, 2016 at a rally in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, he told the crowd, “ if you see

Similarly, Trump Resistance also claims that the president and the government are the threat for citizens in US because they do not listen to their voices carefully. In addition, they argue that all people such as women, immigrants and other minorities have to be treated equally. According to Trump Resistance, protesters say “No to Trump and no to any future leaders who prey on our fear and lie to us plainly.”

As many are aware, protesters gathered recently in Charlottesville, Virginia, for a “Unite the Right” protest. The protest quickly escalated from a peaceful rally to a violent outcry.

The argument made by Katie Reilly in Donald Trump Blames ‘Thugs’ for Cancelled Chicago Rally is that violence is a growing issue in the already-tense political environment within the United States. More specifically, Reilly argues that protesters, who are against Trump and his political views, along with supporters have viciously

In the New York Time Article by Timothy William, Inquiry to Examine Racial Bias in the San Francisco Police Department, first thing to remember known as implied social perception, implicit bias refers to the attitudes or stereotypes that affect our understanding, actions, and decisions in an unconscious manner. Another key point of argument is that there is no systematic bias in the criminal justice base on race. To point out, in performing their policing duties, police officer are able to exercise a high degree of discretion. This means that they have a have a broad freedom to make a decision about how to act on the given situation. For this reason some police officer deliberately use their wide power of discretion and their authority to perform acts of misconduct. In this article it is generally agreed that discrimination based on racial or ethnic origin is morally wrong and a violation of the principle of impartiality. In fact impartiality principles requires that those who are equal be treated equally based on similarities, and that race not be a relevant consideration in the assessment. However, in May, District Attorney George Gascon appointed a three-judge body of distinguished jurists to look into bias in the department following a series of misconduct scandals, the most troubling being a group of police officers who were caught sending racist text messages. Now, the scope, aim, participants and timeline of the ongoing investigation have been revealed in a series

As an American citizen, we are guaranteed many freedoms through the Constitution. The first amendment in the Constitution states that “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right

A. Throughout the first week of THE 225, many events took place within America that took the country by surprise. Trump’s inauguration was last Friday, January 20th, and already he has made drastic changes that will affect the lives of millions. His policies are based off sexist and racist claims that people have, for some odd reason, supported. With his new, corrupt policies, life in America will soon be set back decades because of his white supremacy mentality. Because of this, the nation has never been so divided since the Civil Rights Movement, something that was seemingly done with but clearly not if white supremacy becomes an issue. Although Trump’s America is not an ideal America and his claim to “Make American Great Again” implies

America welcomes a new president and traditionally speaking citizens will respond with a joyful and hopeful celebration. Given the recent news that is not exactly was is going on in Washington, as matter of fact is the opposite. In a recent article, The New York Times published how New Yorkers are responding to Donald Trump’s inauguration. The title of the article is “New York Reactions to Trump Inauguration: Fear and Prayer” and was written by N. R. Kleinfield. In his article, Kleinfield narrates the specific actions of many New Yorkers citizens on the inauguration day. At the same time, Kleinfield documents their feelings and concerns as Trump is sworn into

The shooting appears to be the only one reported at an anti-Trump protest nationwide. More than 225 people have been arrested at demonstrations in various cities, the Washington Post reported. Most demonstrations across the country have remained peaceful, but some violence has been reported, the Post said. In Oakland, California, protesters reportedly threw rocks and fireworks

Although some might agree with the construction of the $3.8bn oil pipeline that would cross four states, others are opposed to that construction strongly, and things got violent recently. Protests are made to get a point across but that does not mean things won't get violent. For instance, there

Donald Trump was elected president of the United States of America on November 8th, 2016, and now has been running our country for over a year. As Trump’s first year in office slowly began, his reputation seems to be creating different outside views of our nation and arguments started producing everywhere. After competing with Hillary Clinton for the presidential term in office, Trump defeated her along with her democratic supporters causing one of the most shocking elections in U.S. history. Using public media web pages, we are reviewing both sides of the argument regarding Trump’s election and we are going to decipher why each arguer supports their side, and why each side is reasonable for the benefit of our country.

In 2017 alone, there have been multiple riots born of originally peaceful protests. Students in Middlebury College in Vermont revolted at a peaceful debate with far-right Charles Murray. While Murray tried to reach his building, a mob formed, forcing him and his debate-partner, Allison Stanger, to move to another building (Beinhart np). When Murray and Stanger tried to leave, they and the car they were in were attacked by students. The leftist Stanger was sent to the emergency room because she tried to protect the guest (Fatzick np). In Berkeley, California, students were up in arms, wanting to prevent Milo Yiannopoulos from speaking. Their haste to silence a man they disagreed with led to a huge disaster. In the streets, fellow classmates were attacked. One student who supported President Trump was brutally beaten, and an innocent bystander who claimed to be Muslim was assaulted for “looking like a Nazi” (Ramaiyer np). Others were beset upon as well, with pepper-spray, matches, and baseball bats. In total, only one person was arrested (French np). Unless this one person attacked this many people and businesses, it’s safe to assume that dozens of perpetrators have gone unpunished for the crime of hurting a human being! This ‘free speech’ is not protected under the First Amendment. People are hurting other people. Another time Mr. Yiannopoulos attempted to give a speech, protesters rudely barged into the lecture
