But the total gay population is much larger, since the census didnt provide an opportuni...

Sexist Attitude Loved Tom
1,776 wordsThe relationship between Tom and Maggie in Books 1 & 2 I think most of the problems with Tom and Maggie's relationship are due to the fact that Tom thinks that females are inferior to males.

Life Without Parole Abolish The Death Penalty
1,853 wordsDeath 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 that happen every day that are simply horrifying. As Paul A. Winters says If a person commits a uniquely gruesome murder, he deserves to be put to death (Winters et al. 154). So many murderers are convicted...

Lady Macbeth Macbeth Macbeth
1,653 words... analysis of the imagery of Macbeth Macbeth is a story based on death and jealousy. Shakespeare was a talented writer who made his main ideas constant throughout the play by using images to emphasise this in a different way. I have found that the main images in Macbeth are ambition, clothing, chaos, dark and light blood and sleep. These all help to create an atmosphere and make the main idea of the story stronger. The main theme that runs constantly through the play is chaos. You can see this...

Life In Prison Death Penalty
688 wordsAfter reading The Death Penalty by William Raspberry several topics surfaced in my mind. The death penalty is unjust and very ridiculous sentence for a human being. Capital punishment is not as effective as most people believe. There are alternative and beneficial solutions in place of the death penalty. Why we have the death penalty is very puzzling question to me. Personally I believe the death penalty is a hypocritical decision. The law states that its wrong to commit murder yet a judge or a ...
