“If you commit the crime, you are guilty”(Rush Limbaugh). Even though not all crimes are reported to the police, crime rates have fallen since the early 1990’s. For example, the country of Honduras has the average highest murder rate at about 90 people per 100,000 people. The criminals that commit the crime are most likely going to lie to you. They may make up stories and pretend it was something else. Queenie Keithley is guilty because she left the country club 10 minutes early, she was in an argument with her husband, Joe, and the glass in Joe’s hand was not broken after he “fell” down the stairs.…

Laurel Thatcher Ulrich claims, “Well-behaved women seldom make history.” By this she means that being ordinary is “well-behaved,” and being obedient does not make changes to anything, but it does pass on tradition of how to behave. Therefore, creating chaos politically draws attention to make it in history. To make a legacy, you must be uniquely different and brave to stand up against the set rules.

Jeannette Rankin is such an inspiration for women, gives women hope that they can be anything they set their heart to. Jeanette was a suffragist, pacifist, and the first congresswoman.
