Life Without Parole Abolish The Death Penalty
1,853 words
Death penalty-to be or not to be? Sometimes crime
cannot be punished enough. Sometimes crime is so
cruel that there is no realistic punishment for
it. There are too many victims out there, that
suffered and their attacker gets a simple painless
death. I am saying painless comparing to murders

death (Winters et al. 154). So many murderers are
convicted...

Persuasion The evil that men do lives after them,
/ the good is oft interred with their bones (Act
3, Scene 2, Line 76). Simply put, after a mans
death, only the evil that he did is remembered;

persuasive speech at Caesars funeral is one to be
remembered. After Brutus oration, the plebeians
thought Caesar was a tyrant and that Brutus did
right to kill him. Antony convinces the plebeians
that Caesars death was unmerited, and that the

Hollywood's Attack on Religion The section that I
have chosen to analyze from the book Hollywood vs.
America is The Attack on Religion. In this part of

attitude Hollywood has made toward religion, from
acceptable to contemptible. He takes a look at the
messages being sent in films, music and television
in the last 15 to 20 years and analyzes their
effects. In general, Hollywood depicts religion in
an unfavorable manner, according to Medved.
