The Importance Of Violence In America

Many white people who supported the inequality of the blacks by using violence as a way to get rid of the blacks or to show where the power lies, and the blacks at the time mostly chose peace to spread the message of racial equality. The reason the blacks chose peace is, because if they used violence the violence would come back at them with ten times the more power. The Caucasians chose the violence over peace to separate blacks from whites, because they already had so much power and they were used to using violence on African Americans since slavery. With the 14th and 15th amendment, the blacks felt confident enough over time to stand up for themselves, and start rallies and protests against the racial inequality. Many organizations and activist

Violence in America America is a violent nation. Many people think that America is full of freedom and democracy. Do these people actually see what happens in America? Do they see the violence in schools, the crime in our society? Most likely, no, these people have loosely seen our society, the violence and the frauds that plague America's history as well as the present.

Violence, one of the biggest problem in the world right now, especially in America, where the gun control law are barely enforced, every citizen is at constant risk, considering the amount of people in this country that own guns. Crime and violence are rapidly becoming the prime epidemic in the U.S today, but what can we do to ensure our future generation’s safety?

I have chosen to discuss the culture of violence in America and how it relates to gun control. It seems we cannot turn on the television, computer or smart phone without reading about gun violence throughout the country. I believe America’s love affair with violence has contributed to an increase in violent crimes. Having said that, there are several incidences in the news where possessing a gun has proven to be helpful in keeping homeowners safe and alive. In one case, a son was at home during a home invasion and used his gun to prevent the attack. This incident happened in Wagoner County, Oklahoma. Three teens dressed in black, wearing masks and gloves, broke into a residence. Authorities arrived to find two of the intruders shot to death in the home, one suspect was found dead in the driveway, and later an additional accomplice turned herself in to the authorities (Wire). Also, there is the case in which a 73-year-old man stopped a home robbery because he had a gun and shot the intruder. The elderly man reported being robbed several times that year, likely contributing to his perceived need to arm himself.

Describe the trends of violence throughout the history of the United States. How do the rates of violent crime in the United States compare to rates of these crimes internationally?

“The whole is greater than the sum of its parts,” Aristotle. The world is better together, as a whole, than it is made up by each country individually, separated and fending for themselves, with no one support from one another. We are currently living in a divided world. Either divided over power, race, religion, and so much more. We read the news daily, wondering why we cannot accept each other and move forward. We wonder why we are all trying to win the “war of division” separately, not relying on other people that believe in the same thing we do. This “war of division,” despite the contrary, is one we have been facing since the start of our country. From the day we won our war of independence to today, we fight issues on our own, but what

Today I will be addressing some of the issues that are happening in today’s society and set a plan as to how we as Americans have to come together for the better and make a change. This country has grown tremendously in many areas since we’ve experienced our last financial crisis. During our time of crisis there were many doubters who said that we could not make America great again and stating that we Americans were misguided. I believe that we have proved them wrong with the growth of the economy and deficits being cut by two-thirds. This economy has touched so many lives through the rise of wages and growing job opportunities. The goal here now is to aim at working on common concerns such as the criminal justice reform, finding a cure and having more studies for those battling incurable illnesses, and protecting our rights as American citizens.

Do you live in or ever heard about an area where there's gang violence, turf wars, shoot outs, and drug dealing? Well you can compare that modern day violence to some of the violent history of America. In this essay I will compare the troubling senseless violence of America today to the violence during America's westward expansion, and the war of 1812,

December 14,2012 was a historic day being the deadliest mass shooting in a school and third deadliest mass shooting by a single person in U.S history. 20- year old Adam Lanza shot 20 children ages between 6 and 7 as well as six staffs at Sandy Hook Elementary School. The incident left americans raged and furious with public opinions for a stricter gun controls.President Barack Obama came into press at the White House and give words of emotions and honoring the victims of the tragedy. At a point Obama claim “ It gets me mad”, as he promised the nations that there will be a reform making it almost unaccessible for guns to the public. Ever since those words of sorrow to comfort the American society, four years later there have been 205 school shootings in the country. It remain unpromising of Obama words, and with republican presidential-elect Donald Trump who favor the second amendment, it is highly likely the killing of childrens in a learning environment will come to an end. Conservative gun-rights advocates Robert Levy will take a stance that if school staffs are arm children can be protected, despite not acknowledging the clumsiness of some adults and curiosity of children finding out what happen if they pull the trigger. In a leftist perspective, former New York Times reporter and Harvard Medical school graduate, Elisabeth Rosenthal, will urge for a stricter gun laws as more guns lead to more homicide proving statistically. Agreeing with Rosenthal, It is my believe that

Boom! Pow! The US is using force to get retaliation on countries that harm their own people. Military officials are fighting against countries that kill/harm their country goers. Some officials say we should act out on the violence. Others say that we should keep our noses out of other countries business. Using military force acts out on countries killings, just recently Syria bombed their own people. When we use this force it gives the government officials a piece of mind what we think about them killing their own people. This could save other and more innocent people from dying. Using this amount of force could save other people. Giving the government we just attacked, a new idea on what moves they should do next.

Structural violence is a big factor in American History. I would even go as far as saying the country that I live in was built on, and is ran by structural violence. In terms of race, politics, our justice system, and even our schools are all structured one way or another by some type of systematic violence. I do not believe that violence neccesarily has to be physical harm. It can be psycological, emotional, and even systematic harm. By systematic harm, I mean specifically in our justice and economic systems. The phrase "The poor just get poorer while the rich get richer" is a great example of systematic violence in my opinion. As a nation we tend to turn our shoulder to the visual and physical evidence that the police are targeting African

The idea of unity is such an important aspect that it appears in the name of our country, “United States of America.” By definition, “united” means “joined together politically, for a common purpose, or by common feelings.” A group of people, most importantly, have to be united in order to achieve a common goal. This is further emphasized by Obama in his 2004 Democratic National Convention Keynote Address. He was chosen as the Keynote speaker for then-president-candidate John Kerry, who was running against George W. Bush, for the Democratic Party. In Obama’s powerful and inspiring speech, Obama stresses the importance of unity among the people in order for the “American Dream” to be achievable, by emotional connecting with the audience.

At school, business, public places, even in places you least expect it to be.I think violence is bad it changes us, some even traumatized by violence.People all across the world suffer during abuse, war and many other reasons.You never know even children have to deal with seeing violence.During wars sometimes innocents get killed.The Holocaust, was a genocide in which six million jews were killed just beacause of their religion.

Let us study what violence really is, why we become violent, and what we achieve by that. Violence really means unlawful exercise of physical force, or it may be even verbal abuses. Now, let us analyze why we become violent; mostly it has been seen that we become violent when we do not get what we want, or what we demand: whether our demand is right or wrong is a different matter. Maybe, in this context it can be said that, at least sometimes, we do get excited and resort to violence without having enough reason or provocation. However, it is equally true that, sometimes, there really is no other way to present our demands.

The last distinction between Saratoga County and Bronx County is violent crime. The measuring for the violent crimes is through the amount of reported violent crimes such as homicide, rape, robbery in 100,000 people. Violent crime can cause people afraid to exercise outside, elevate the stress level in daily activities, and increase the prevalence of other related diseases (“Violent Crime-Description”, 2017). The data from the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute (“Compare Counties”, 2017) addressed that, the amount of violent crime in New York City is 394, in the Bronx is 621 and in Saratoga is 80. From the interpretation of these data, the information can be understood that the amount of violent crime in Bronx County is higher than Saratoga County and overall New York City. Saratoga County is even much lower than the overall New York City. When it is applied to knowledge, a lower number of violent crime in a population, the healthier they will be. Consequently, Saratoga County is healthier than Bronx County.
