James A. Garfield, the 20th President was preparing to go to Williams College and while he was about to aboard the train in Washington D.C., he was shot twice. The first shot was on his arm and the second shot came in through his back near his spine. Charles Guiteau was the one responsible for Garfield’s murder that happened on July 2, 1881. Even before he killed the President, he was known to be emotionally disturbed all around Washington so that leads to thinking there was something wrong with this man. Guiteau killed Garfield because the President refused to appoint him to a European consulship.
When Alice Paul tells Senator Leighton that she “perpetuates the lie everyday at breakfast,” she is referring to the lie that most women felt fulfilled within their role in society and how most women lacked independence, ultimately giving up meeting their husbands and societies standards of marriage. In the early 1900’s, women did not receive the right to vote, nor were they allowed to express their opinions vocally due to the fact that they would fear judgment from society and their husbands.

When the resentful citizens of a British colony established on the continent of North America decided to rebel against their mother country, they wrote several documents, including the Constitution. James Madison was the main author, and over the years, the Constitution has become a symbol of the United States and what it stands for. The very first sentence, the Preamble, is important because it establishes the guidelines that citizens of this country try to follow. One of the reasons that Americans decided to rebel was because they thought the king of England, King George III, was unfit to rule over a country several thousand miles away, especially when he was not being as fair and just as he could be. They refused to listen to him and

Physician assisted suicide or better known as Death with Dignity isn’t your everyday topic or thought, but for the terminally ill it’s a constant want. The Death with Dignity isn’t something that all people or religions are in favor of and nor is the act passed in all states in the United States.

Assisted suicide is a rather controversial issue in contemporary society. When a terminally ill patient formally requests to be euthanized by a board certified physician, an ethical dilemma arises. Can someone ethically end the life of another human being, even if the patient will die in less than six months? Unlike traditional suicide, euthanasia included multiple individuals including the patient, doctor, and witnesses, where each party involved has a set of legal responsibilities. In order to understand this quandary and eventually reach a conclusion, each party involved must have their responsibilities analyzed and the underlying guidelines of moral ethics must be investigated.
However, there is hope of a peaceful death for these patients that exists in a controversial law being considered by many states throughout the country. It is known as the Death with Dignity Act.
