Comparing Howie And Laura's Actions

One important reason that Howie and Laura's excursion was not justifiable and was foolish and they should be punished for their actions is that Howie and Laura face trouble everywhere they go. When Howie and Laura arrive at the Dining Hall, Howie begins to be angered by Pardo."The boy kicked him hard in the side of the knee. Pardoe made a loud, ugly sound and fell down on the floor." (Page 85). What this means is Howie and Laura face trouble when Howie ended up in a fight with Pardoe. Howie and Laura also end up making a commotion in the Dining Hall. The other side of the argument is Howie and Laura have been helped by many people along their journey. But the argument that Howie and Laura face trouble everywhere they go is still true. The key

The kid that started the gorge fire have done a lot of damage and many people are very angry with the kid and say that he should go to jail for what he did and i don’t think he should. I think they should have a punishment but not one that will ruin their lives.

My evidence from the text states,"Damn. Hazel? Check her parking lot. Keep her here, Mrs. Purse. He came out from behind the desk. ‘You're in trouble’ he said”. On page 147. The point is that this piece of evidence helps support my argumentative claim because the man said that Laura was in trouble because of Mrs. Purse. When they were caught in the motel. Of course it is possible to disagree with the view that says Howie and Laura got caught in a motel by someone who was suspicious of them, argue that Howie and Laura went to the hotel to be there for awhile they were not intentionally going to stay there forever. However stronger evidence is on the other side. What must be remembered is that Howie and Laura went to the hotel to be there for awhile they were not intentionally going to stay there forever. This is essentially why Howie and Laura got caught in a motel by someone who was suspicious of them and it connects to the overall position, Laura and Howie encountered a dangerous and malevolent world when they left

started a big problem at the motel. What this means is It support it because it tells one of the poor choices that they have made The other side of the argument is Laura and Howie excursion was a learning experience that was justifiable by the circumstances they were in. Howie and Laura were too sensitive to take the prank/joke. Howie and laura were not being childish and fhuhs and is still true.

One vital reason that Howie and Laura should be punished is because they broke the law, repeatedly and were not punished. The text provides evidence that the sheriff won't be pressing charges, Margo Cutter tells Ms.Golden ‘I dont think sheriff Prosser will be pressing charges’’(p. 166). The circumstance was that they were bullied, this does not warrant criminal activity. It is saying that this proves that they are delinquents. With lack of repercussions their delinquent actions will continue, they're not realizing it's wrong.

There is many examples of differences and similarities of good vs. evil between these boys. At the end of the day these were very young boys put into a horrendous situation that most adults couldn't even handle. Human nature came out in these boys and they just handled it in many different ways but also in many similar ways. I believe their behavior on the island really stemmed from their lives away from the island and their maturity levels for sure. Maybe think about what would be dangerous for you on an island now and if you would succumb to

1} There should be a longer sentence for these offenders. Because it is such a terrible and scarring experience for those who survive it, these people shouldn’t be able walk freely and live a normal life. These kids have to live with it for the rest of their lives. It causes them to lose trust in people.

In this article Ethan is having a party, and having fun with a bunch of other friends that he invited to his party.On one tragic night where a church group was having a get together, a mother and daughter just outside with a woman that was in need of some help, and another group of teenagers were having a party where they were drinking and doing drugs. A teenager decides that he needed to go to a store to purchase some items, the catch is that he is drunk and not in very good condition. On the way back, he is horsing around and hit four people out on the open street and ends up putting an end to their life and changing people's lives.The justice system didn't do the correct thing by not setting him off with no charges what's so ever and no jail time. Now that is just unbelievable, I am sure many people believe that he should be either in prison or in some sort okay house arrest. Ethan needs to strongly learn that he is taking the action of killing these innocent people and putting their families in a crisis. According to the court,”The judge sentenced Ethan Couch to 10 years of probation and time in a rehab facility. “The judge should have sentenced him to at least house arrest or some amount of time in prison, Ethan needs to face the consequences that he mad on his on. Just like he had the time to create all this damage, he can also pay up the price for all the damage he created. Ethan should have faced many more consequences than what he obtained. Knowing that he damaged other human beings lives and now he isn't obtaining any life changing consequences? In my opinion the judges should've thought this situation thoroughly, but not a single soul can change the decision that was established.

Adult decisions should have adult consequence many minors don’t think about their actions and how it affects others around them. According to

After watching the movie “Sleepers” I believe the main characters entrance into the criminal justice system was too harsh of a punishment. The fact that these young boys made a foolish mistake, did not mean their sentencing had to be jail for no less than 18 months. However, I do believe there could have been some less sever consequences that they should have taken into account, like community service, and or probation, given this was their first offense.

The punishment for this Brooklyn teen named Aniah Ferguson was fair. In her circumstances she had another fair shot to not face consequences for her actions and she blew it for brutally attacking her classmate at McDonalds. She should have known what was going to happen to her when she did it. Her punishment of facing four years in prison is satisfactory because she has history of assaulting people such as her grandmother and stabbing her brother. She was the one in spiraling video leading the brutal assault against the classmate, she didn’t have to do it. There are other ways to deal with problems with your peers such as talking them out with a peer mediator or going to an adult and finding a solution. I say, since they are classmates at

It’s all over the news, a murder recently happening. They killed an innocent by beating them with a baseball bat and burning their trailer while they were still inside. Given the proper evidence, most states would sentence the murderer to life in prison without parole. So don’t you think if other murderers receive the same punishment this murderer should too? Would your opinion change if they were a 14 year old boy? Many found this punishment to be breaking the 8th Amendment: Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted. In the case Miller vs Alabama, 2011, young Evan Miller, along with Colby Smith murdered Cole Cannon. If two young kids could cause an adult crime, they should

Regardless of the age, gender, and past of the boys prior to and as well as their time spent on the island, the boys should be held accountable for the murder of Piggy and Simon in addition to the attempted murder of Ralph. The murder of the innocent young simon and piggy was wrong and deserve no justification, and no matter where you are in the world the thought and action of killing another human should always be followed by consequences. A reasonable explanation as for why the boys should receive a punishment for their actions is because of the fact that they grew up in society from the day they were born up until the day they boarded that plane. Since they grew up in society, they had been able to observe the way people act in public

These criminals don't have any money because they do not have jobs or they have underpaid jobs. The jobs they can get are unskilled, low paying ones. Burglars are generally uneducated or lazy. They spend all their money on drugs and then don't have money to pay for necessities.

Is bad behavior an appropriate response to adversity?... Bad behavior can be caused by many things such as a loss in the family, anger and depression. One book that shows similar scenes to these bad behavior is “georgie”, by Malachy Doyle. In this book a boy named Georgie has a very difficult life as his mother died when he was young and has to live with a foster family. He needs someone to teach him how to live again like a regular person, and his name was Tommo, the man who changed Georgie. Also, an article called, “Should Teens be condemned to die in jail had similar effects to bad behavior. In this article teens have become prostitutes from drug addicts. And it is being argued that should they be punished to jail or take it the easy
