Rank And File Commanding Officer
656 words
Kerensky was a young man in 1917. In many ways,
that was the tragedy of Russia in 1917, that such
huge responsibility was placed on the shoulders of
such an inexperienced man. Kerensky was also
foolish. He was a great orator. He was very
theatrical in his gestures. He was the darling of
the Petrograd intelligence. Young girls fell in
love with him. Many of them wrote him love poems.
There was a cult of Kerensky indeed. His rhetoric
was sickly sweet, which in the euphoria in the
spring 1917, was ...

Neo Nazis And Free Speech
944 words
Neo-Nazis are entitled to the same First Amendment
rights under the Constitution as all other
American citizens. Simply because a group
expresses beliefs which are unpopular and
generally considered to be wrong does not mean
that the group is no longer entitled to free
speech. When people are given true freedom of
speech, it should be understood that there are
always going to be differences in opinions, and
that the opinions held by some people will almost
invariably be seen as offensive to at l...

One Of The Greatest Sexual Abuse
1,417 words
The topic of pornography is widely controversial,
and is deeply rooted into our cultural beliefs and
trends. Although pornography has become readily
available nowadays, it is an early sexual
expression, that appears in almost every culture.
The complexity of the subject develops from the
individuality of human nature, and therefore the
difficulty to withhold a clear definition of what
should and what should not be considered
pornographic. In general terms, pornography will
be defined as any mate...

Quid Pro Quo Civil Rights Act

Sexual Harassment Sexual harassment today has
changed slightly from the early nineties. There is
more recognition now and more cases being brought
up. Courts now grant relief for sexual harassment
far more often than they did initially. Today,
courts will more likely find an illegal hostile
work environment present when the workplace
includes sexual propositions, pornography,
extremely vulgar language, sexual touching,
degrading comments, or embarrassing questions or
jokes (Owen, p. 117). What h...

CATS CRADLE Jonathan Swift has suggested that
Satire is a sort of Glass, wherein Beholders do

Kill An Idea Free Speech People
821 words
Censorship is a great temptation, particularly
when we see something that offends or frightens
us. At such times, our best defense is to remember
what J. M. Coetzee writes in Giving Offense:
Essays on Censorship. By their very nature,
censors wound their own vision when they restrict
what others can see. The one who pronounces the
ban becomes, in effect, the blind one, the one at
the center of the ring in the game of blind mans
bluff. But the new landscape of ideas and their
control leaves many ...

U S Government Patently Offensive

Censorship of the Internet and the Tyranny of Our
Government To curtail free expression strikes
twice at intellectual freedom, for whoever
deprives another of the right to state unpopular
views also deprives others of the right to listen
to those views, said Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr
(Censorship and the U. S. Government 1). I
completely agree with Mr. Holmes, and when the
question of censoring the Internet arises, I
cringe. Governing the Internet dominates many
debates, censorship leading the fi...

The battle of Gettysburg was fought on July 1
through July 3, 1863, considered by most military
historians the turning point in the American Civil
War (Johnson 84). The Battle of Gettysburg was a

North, destroyed their offensive strategy, and
forced them to fight a defensive war in which the
slowness of their manufacturing capacity and
transportation facilities doomed them to defeat
(McPherson 25). The...
