    being scrutinized and criticized for a variety of reasons. Many believe that plea bargaining is fair as it gives a possible offender the ability to negotiate a less severe sentence. If the offender is in fact innocent all he has to do is go trial and show it to the jury and he will be free to go. However many people are saying that plea bargaining has contributed to imprisoning of innocents and it is an unfair practice as a result. Though that may seem ludicrous because it would seem that innocent people

    Harris 4B 8-16-13 Hammurabi’s Code: Was it Just? In the early 18th century‚ a guy by the name of Hammurabi made up Hammurabi’s Code. Hammurabi’s Code includes laws‚ punishments‚ and rewards. These laws cover subjects such as family life‚ agriculture‚ theft and professional standards (doc A). Is Hammurabi’s Code really just?

    Hammurabi’s Code After reading the codes of law set out by Hammurabi himself‚ sometime between the years of 1727 BCE and 1680 BCE‚ I have come to the conclusion that laws are necessary for many things‚ but especially to keep order and to keep society running. Without codes of law society would turn into a barbaric form of life. These laws are generally put into place based on common sense‚ but after reading Hammurabi’s Code I found out they are also put in place to raise fear in the eyes of the

    I understand why you are torn when comes to gerrymandering‚ but for me I don’t think it’s fair. As the the definition of gerrymandering it is “redistricting to benefit a particular group”. What I really don’t like about it‚ is states get divided the way the congress wants and it changes at every . Even if the states gets redistricting in a weird way and it doesn’t make sense by looking at the map‚ as long as the district ends up with equal population. I don’t think the way it’s proportioned to make

    MICHAEL M. MIRANDA DECEMBER 19‚ 2012 BSBA-MKTG 3 ENTREP 32 12.00-1.30PM MW 7TH ENTREP FAIR (REACTION) This years entrep fair was a bit different from the last and that is mainly being because of the change of venue which was changed from Ayala to Parkmall. I myself think Ayala still would have been the better venue because more people go to Ayala because there is more to buy there. In doing the Entrep Fair in Ayala we can also reach our peers in USC Talamban Campus and a higher class of people
