The Land of the Unfree The word “patriot” has changed in meaning throughout time; however it has always seemed to be defined as someone that vigorously supports their country. Within the last few decades terrorism has become a major issue and if it wasn’t for the creation of the USA Patriot Act in 2001, by President George W. Bush, we probably would have had a larger amount of terrorist attacks then we actually had. The Patriot Act has helped monitor foreign communications, as well as…

As a Criminal Justice Major and to take it even further as an African American male I have found it hard to sometimes distinguish what is legally right and what morally wrong when it comes to justice in certain aspects.

The metaphors that are…

Nelson Mandela was in prison for over 27 years, because he had some political opinions. The South Africa government or the Apartheid did not want the black majority in South Africa to have any power of justice. If the Apartheid gave the black majority power, then the British people could lose their advantages, more likely the white people could lose their advantages.
