the smallest unit of a local government is its village(:
No, I would not expect the borders of a gerrymandered district to appear on a map as a rectangle of circle or some other recognizable shape because first of all, geographic shapes cannot be compared to simple geometric shapes and a “gerrymandered” district would have an odd and bizarre shape, just like what happened when Gov. Elbridge Gerry redrew the Senate districts map – it looked like a salamander.
The evidence is that many of the townsfolk don't want him to actually properly defend Tom Robinson and in all fairness he did not believe he would actually win the case but it was important to try. He defended Tom to the best of his ability as he believes it is the right thing to do and that everyone has a right to a fair trial.
I think that the Miranda warning is good because the problem was trying to determine what counted as a coerced confession. Well into the 20th century, police officers would beat suspects, or keep defendants in isolation for days, to get a confession. The methods of police interrogation were so diverse, and the effects of isolation, intimidation and defendant ignorance so varied, that appellate courts found it difficult to determine afterward whether a confession had been truly voluntary.
Answer:
I agree, but not entirely.
Explanation:
In 1607 the first English colony in America, Jamestown was created. At the beginning the colony depended in Britain for their financial and government needs. However English authorities did not have full control over their colonies in North America.
This opened the way for the colonies to take control at some extend over their economies and self government. It was only after 1700's that British authorities started to impose some control, but it was far too late. Nevertheless The English Legal system was adopted by The American Legal System.
Between 1607 and 1763 colonists of America gained more control of their economy and trade. They developed substantial trade with Native Americans, French, Dutch and Spanish.
By looking at historical evidences, it is apparent that the political and economic dependence of the Americans on the British fluctuated throughout the course of American colonial history.
Finally since the creation of the first British colony in 1607, and until the end of "The seven years' war" in 1763, American colonies gained essential control of their economy and political institutions.
