Why do we have such a high crime/violence rate in the U.S.? <br /><br />Sociology Social Problems Course

Answer: the crime rate isn't as high as it seems to be. The crime rate is high in the cities, but low in the rural and suburban areas.

Most cities are extremely liberal, making it practically impossible for good citizens to own a gun for self defense. For this reason, urban criminals know that their intended victims are helpless, and they can commit violent crimes with impunity. (Suburban and rural criminals are strongly deterred from their potential crimes by the presence of armed citizens.)

Explanation: Cities are also home to vast numbers of government dependents, broken homes, and fatherless children. Fatherless children with unstable home environments have a much higher likelihood of turning to crime, joining gangs, etc. American cities skew the statistics for the country as a whole — but if you take the cities OUT of the statistics, then America is one of the safest places in the world.

Which problem was significant for the Texas army in the early 1836​
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Hi nohelia

Explanation:

The defeat at the Alamo in 1836 was significant for Texas because it gave the Texans a reason for fighting for their independence. The small number of Texans that fought the war at Alamo were tortured and killed and this led to a greater stimulus for gaining independence from the rule of Mexico for the Texans.

The Battle of the Alamo (February 23 – March 6, 1836) was a pivotal event in the Texas Revolution. ... Buoyed by a desire for revenge, the Texians defeated the Mexican Army at the Battle of San Jacinto, on April 21, 1836, ending the rebellion.

a_sh-v [17]

The correct answer is C) because they wanted to avoid the discomfort of facing an unpopular view.

<em>In the majority opinion, Fortas suggested that the reason the school authorities suspended the students was that they wanted to avoid the discomfort of facing an unpopular view. </em>

We are referring to the case Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District that was decided on February 24, 1969.

In 1965, five students decided to wear black armbands in protest of the Vietnam War and they were suspended by the school for doing that. In the majority opinion, Judge Abe Fortas suggested that the reason the school authorities suspended the students was that they wanted to avoid the discomfort of facing an unpopular view. At the end of the case, the Court decided that the use of armbands as a protest was not a motive to cause any disruption and that the protest was protected by freedom of speech.
