Thousand Dollars Twenty Minutes

Alcatraz Island was opened from 1934 to 1963. At
that time it was the last stop in the federal
penitentiary pipeline. It housed famous criminals
such as Al Scarface Capone, George Machine Gun
Kelly, and Robert Stroud, The Birdman of Alcatraz
(American Automobile Association 81). The warden,
James Johnston, turned it into such a brutal place
that even the most hardened criminals started
calling it Hellcatraz. That raises the question
was Alcatraz's brutality essential, or just plain
cruel? Locate...

their state only. However sometimes, issues get
too big or too important to be resolved by the
state governments alone, so the federal government
involves themselves. Because of our current
political system, the federal government is
dominant over the states rule. Things like

On Friday November 22, 1963, the thirty-fifth
President of the United States of America, John F.
Kennedy was assassinated as he rode down Elm
Street in downtown Dallas Texas. To this day, the
questions as to whom did it, why did they do it,
and how did they do it? are still unanswered. Then
there is the question as to if it was a cover up.

cover up because I don't think that Lee Harvey

Rural Communities Natural Resource
