The Pros And Cons Of The CTBT

The plain view doctrine is an exception to the search warrant requirements that allows police officers to seize evidence, without a search warrant, that they recognize as contraband or used in a criminal activity that is seen in plain view without having to enter the property or perform a search. In addition, a corollary to the plain sight doctrine is the plain smell doctrine, that allows if an officer smells evidence (e.g. marijuana), the officer meets the probable cause requirement to initiate a warrantless search (Lemons, n.d.). For example, an officer pulls over to assist a stranded motorist and observes in the front console of the vehicle a large bag of pills. This meets the probable cause requirement for the officer to perform a search of the vehicle.

The citizens of the United States of America need to support President Truman in this decision. It should be understand that these measures are necessary to protect the lives of American citizens and soldiers. America has only one shot at taking down Japan, so the job needs to be done in the most advantageous way possible. Time is running out and President Truman needs to authorize the use of the atomic bomb immediately. The United States of America’s citizens, soldiers, and reputation lies in his

In 2001, Former President George W. Bush signed the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act. This Law launched the national standards and testing movement of the United States (2004).

“Senate Bill 4 is a piece of legislation that Texas Governor Greg Abbott signed in May and it aims to ban “sanctuary cities” by requiring sheriffs, constables, police chiefs and other local leaders to cooperate with federal immigration authorities and allows police to ask about the immigration status of individuals they lawfully detain” (Alvarez). The consequences for sheriffs, constables, police chiefs and other local leaders if they do not follow the legislation are that they could face Class A misdemeanor and possibly jail time (Mansoor & Pollock). “In addition, they can could face civil penalties ranging from $1,000 to $1,500 for the first violation and $25,000 to 25,500 for consecutive offenses” (Alvarez). Many people are against Senate

The United States should not have dropped the atomic bomb because it was unnecessary. United State still had many other resources to use on Japan to end the war. They should not have used this powerful atomic bomb because Japan was already defeated. When the United States wanted to stop World War II, they could have used not too powerful bombs at a location which would not

Over the course of the last eight years, the senate became hyper partisan due to unprecedented obstruction and filibuster. Republicans overused filibuster, resulting in the difficulty of Obama appointing any new persons. This is when Democrats brought the nuclear option before the senate. As this occurred, Senator Mitch McConnell stated, “I say to my friends on the other side of the aisle, you’ll regret this. And you may regret this a lot sooner than you think” (Berman). Inadvertently, Mitch McConnell foreshadowed the future political events. McConnell is a Republican, transparently showing his feelings about the decisions made by the—at the time—majority. Contradicting McConnell’s statement, Senator John McCain expresses that, “This is a body blow to the institution, and I think we’re on a slippery slope.” Recalling past confirmation wars, McCain cannot simply agree with the idea relying completely on majority votes because of the controversy; however, he did follow suit with voting likewise other Republican senates (Kane). Even with disagreements, the Republican party as a whole still manages to shut down the Democratic

It can be concluded that Bill C-51 was not thought out in a proper professional manner which led to various concerns amongst people from within the parliament as well as citizens of Canada. It is extremely vital to make amendments to the Bill because doing so will give the people more confidence in the system and in our government. Eliminating all the confusion created within the Bill is the right way forward, however the Ministries should ensure that the safety of its people come first, yet at the same time given their basic human rights. It can be a difficult situation to amend a Bill such as Bill C-51 since it is on a very fragile topic. Facing criticism Hence Trudeau's government will have to be extremely careful handling the Bill, keeping

The use of the atomic bomb the U.S used against Japan was Unjustified. The U.S had several other alternatives to solve the conflict between the two countries. Furthermore, the bomb was strongly racially motivated and had many inhumane side-effects to the dangerous explosion when the blast had hit Japan. Before resorting to using the bomb the U.S should have considered the many options they had at hand.

ix. Johnson urged them not to ratify it, democrats used it as a campaign issued

Truman also added to the end of his announcement, “I shall recommend that the Congress of the United States consider promptly the establishment of an appropriate commission to control the production and use of atomic power within the United States. I shall give further consideration and make further recommendations to the Congress as to how atomic power can become a powerful and forceful influence towards the maintenance of world peace.” He recommended this in order to create new rules for future leaders, preventing a president from using the atomic bomb for inappropriate purposes. While Truman didn’t get approval for his actions in 1945, this is only because there were no rules in place at the time (for the atomic bomb was new technology). Truman’s decision to do this reflects on the qualities that Presidents possess, which is why much of the public trusts the President they elect to make decisions that reflect well on the United States, along with protecting the citizens (Document

Minister of Justice Robert Douglas Nicholson originally introduced Bill C-51 in the House of Commons on November 1st 2010. The purpose of the bill was to modernize and update Canadian criminal laws by facilitating collaboration with foreign and domestic law-enforcement agency to address organize crime and monitor terrorist activity (Valiquet, 2011 p. 5-13). Following the parliament shooting in Ottawa, the bill was passed by the senate and received Royal assent on June 18 2015 (Sokolyk, 2015 p. 41). Supporter of the bill and CSIS director Michel Coulombe, recently stated that the bill “have been used nearly two dozen times since last autumn to disrupt terrorist threats” (MacCharles, 2015).

The NCLB Act has undoubtedly established a focus on testing and data like no other testing reform in recent history. Now with end of NCLB and the beginning of the ESSA era, it is very possible that more parents and students will stand by their right to opt-out of high-stakes/standardized testing. It is fairly common for public schools in every state to start administering standardized test by at least third grade and every year thereafter on through high school. Although the ESSA also requires that all schools and districts have a testing rate of 95% or higher (as NCLB did as well), the likelihood of any disciplinary actions or penalties coming from not meeting that threshold seem to be nonexistent. Proof of this was seen when New York State

Congress prevented the United States from ratifying the ITO charter, then why did the United States pass the GATT? As Odell explains, the ratification of the GATT did not depend on ratification of the ITO. Countries did not need to approve the entire ITO package to sign the GATT, and the GATT’s implementation did not require congressional authorization under US law. The Reciprocal Trade Agreements Acts gave Presidents authorization to implement tariff cuts. The GATT, although available as part of the ITO package, was available as an alternative to the heavily criticised ITO. (Odell 186) Hence, business groups and congressional opponents in the United States could invoke the GATT as a less convoluted alternative that did not contain the loopholes, investment

In 1950, MTUC called as Malayan Trades Union Council and changed to Malayan Trades Union Congress in 1958. Until 1963, it becomes Malaysian Trades Union Congress. The MTUC is a federation of trade unions and registered under the Societies Act, 1966. Therefore, it is not a trade union. It is the oldest National Centre representing the Malaysian workers. The Unions affiliated to MTUC represent all major industries and sector with approximately 500,000 members (Maimunah, 2013). More an advisory and co-ordinating national trade union centre cannot be formed as trade union since its members from various trades and industries. Hence, MTUC cannot engage in trade disputes and bargain or negotiate on behalf of any of its affiliates.
