Which type of jail holds individuals accused of crimes like trespassing and misconduct
scoray [572]

Answer:

County jail

Explanation:

In most cases, trespass is a misdemeanor.

This means it can lead to penalties of up to six (6) months in county jail and/or a fine of up to one thousand dollars .

Like jail sentences, trespassing fines are dependent on state law and the circumstances of the crime, and laws allow courts to impose a range of fines.

For example, a conviction for trespassing may result in a fine of as little as $25 or as much as $1,000.

The term "county jail" is used for jails maintained to hold prisoners in each of the many county divisions . People may be moved into a county jail immediately after they are arrested, or may later be transferred to a county jail from a local holding cell or detention center.

How do Federalist 10 and Agrippa Letter, no. 4 present the prospect of freedom and liberty in a large, or "extended," republic l
Setler [38]

Answer: The Federalists 10 supports the idea of a centralized government.

Explanation:

Madison in Federalist 10 argues that it is necessary to have an established government to “break and control the violence of faction” that is those who do not support government administration and oppose legislation. He states that the government can hold the power to ensure that society remains functional saying “a republic… promises the cure”. Madison then argues that the only problem arises from majority factions because the principle of popular sovereignty should prevent minority factions from gaining power.The “Agrippa” letters appear to have been written by James Winthrop, who was register of probate in Middlesex when these letters were written. He argued that the Constitution gave too much power to the federal government, while taking too much power away from state and local governments.

The most important issue at stake in this debate is the question of the future governmental structure of the United States. Would it be one central government or a union of small individual governments. The independent United States was afraid that one centralized government would take away power from the people and it will be too far removed to represent the average citizen, others are afraid that without a strong governmental figure, disorder would ensue.

Which type of figurative language is used "in some not toog distant tomorrow the radiant stars of love and brotherhood".
Anton [14]

The correct answer is a metaphor. A metaphor is a figure of speech that uses something to refer to something else. Usually the two things are quite different things but their qualities are somewhat similar in a literal or figurative sense. In this instance "a radiant star" is just a giant conglomerate of burning gases in outer space and "love and brotherhood" are a human emotion and an ideal. However, our sun is a radiant star and it gives us warmth and life and love and brotherhood irradiate human beings with emotional warmth and life and that is why the metaphor is accurate.
