I think that these veterans who are returning home from Iraq and other intense war missions need to be given some sort of leniency. By no means am I saying that I believe that they should be completely resolved of their crimes that they commit when they come back from war, however I do believe that it should be majorly taken into consideration that they have fought in war.

184), and honestly I couldn’t agree more with this statement. However, I do not believe that if these soldiers had a violent criminal record before they left for war, if they did not successfully completed a professional counseling and therapy program after returning from war, or if they did complete a professional counseling and therapy program after returning from war and they still committed a crime, that they should not be granted leniency. At that point you can no longer blame their actions on them fighting in a war. They either had the violent past prior to their war desensitization, they chose not to get help through counseling and therapy after returning from war, or they successfully completed a professional counseling and therapy program post war, and they still made that decision to commit a crime when they knew that they were back in regular society and they knew right from …show more content…

How would you feel if you lived in a country that made you fight in a war at the age of 12 and you'll either get forgiven or send to jail? You should be sent to jail if you joined for fun and liked killing. But if you joined to protect others and to do it for a good reason then you should be forgiven. I think kids should be forgiven because maybe they were forced to, they did it for protection, and they did it so they won’t hurt them or kill them, and because they needed a shelter, food and because they were poor. One reason I think child soldiers should be forgiven is because maybe they were forced to join and kill.

Veterans and our soldiers are coming home from war or getting out of the military and when they get home they can’t afford rent or they have a mental disease from war. Homeless veterans tend to experience homelessness longer than non-veteran homeless. This should not be happening to our soldiers. This is very undesirable for our troops to come home and becoming homeless. They fight for our freedom and our rights and we repay them by becoming homeless.

Civil liberties are rights guaranteed to citizens in the Constitution that the government cannot interfere with, however, in the name of national security, they do. The government sometimes finds it necessary for Americans to give up some of their basic rights to keep the nation protected, but many people find this unnecessary. A law-abiding citizen’s extremely personal information should not be essential to finding terroristic threats within this society. Under no circumstances should an American citizen’s civil liberties be violated in a time of war or crisis, because those are assured rights that are most valuable to their freedom during national conflicts.

In the eyes of the law, this man is guilty and should be punished. However, is it right for that man to forget about his own conscience and fight in a war he does not see as a just one? Is it right to make him choose between forsaking his wows to the country and his moral responsibility to his conscience? It is my strong belief that even nowadays there are still some unjust laws.

Freedom. The importance of freedom is often forgotten as Americans live day by day taking this gift for granted.

Racial inequality has plagued our society for centuries and has been described as a “black eye” on American history. It wasn’t until the passing of The Civil Rights Act of 1965 that minorities were given equal protection under the law. This was a crucial step on our society’s road to reconciling this injustice.
