Isaac N. Breon Dr. Entzminger Foundations of Writing April 19, 2022 An Analysis of the current uncommon situation of bullying speech problems on public transit:     Did you ever come across a hippy stranger on a public bus, or any public space, that severely injured your sense of privacy with coarse speech? About anything political or simply anything divisive? If you haven’t, then someone else you know of probably has, and his or her story may, indeed, be pretty horrifying. Happily, most forms of bullying have not been too widespread, and many instances that have happened eventually catch the public eye in one form or another. However, that does not mean that bullying, in general, has died down. For many Muslims in America, they encounter this issue when they come across ads that say things like “IN ANY WAR BETWEEN THE CIVILIZED MAN AND THE SAVAGE, SUPPORT THE CIVILIZED MAN. SUPPORT ISRAEL, DEFEAT JIHAD.” on the sides of our own American buses. This kind of abuse has and still...

                                                               Homeless man being addressed by police officers, from Socialistworker.org Recent analytics show that almost 600,000 Americans are homeless or displaced. Of that, about a fifth of those people are children. These children live on the streets, being exposed to sexual deviancy and drug use from a young age, plaguing their minds and warping their perception that these are normalities in life. This is a future that these young folk don’t deserve, and one that we, as a society, have an obligation to improve. All the homeless children are putting an even larger strain on the already disheveled American medical system. According to Paediatrics & Child Health , many individuals on the streets already have chronic health conditions that are m...

 The Discrimination Against the LGBTQ+ Community - Have We Done Enough? It is impossible to ignore the massive amounts of criticism and discrimination that the LGBTQ+ community has faced over the past few decades, from political issues such as the right to marry one another to religious issues involving the Bible and its “law”. Over the last few years, however, policies have changed, and now it seems anyone can be a member of the LGBTQ+ community without facing discrimination, with many much more accepting than they were a few decades ago, so is there still massive amounts of discrimination? On June 26th, 2015, the Supreme Court officially struck down all of the bans against gay marriage across the country. It was now legal for the same-gender couple to be married in any state in the United States, something that the LGBTQ+ community had been fighting for. Since early as the 70s, people had been advocating for their right to marry same-sex partners, and it’s clear to see the co...

                         Does The prison system actually negatively impact Inmates rather than rehabilitate?   “In seeking to severely penalize criminals society by putting the criminals away behind safe walls actually provide them with the means of greater strength for future atrocities glorious and otherwise ( Kerouac )." This quote demonstrates the cruel reality that the reformation Prison is supposed to have on its inmates non existent. Prisons around the country have shown to be unkempt, violent, and dangerous. The culture that resides within the Prisons is one of the main reasons why inmates progress negatively once entering.
