360degrees

by gregg
Even as the crime rate is dropping, the criminal justice system continues to grow. According to the Federal Bureau of Prisons, there will be 30 new federal prisons built over the next 7 years. Throughout this unprecedented growth, there have been few opportunities for critical examination of what is working and what isn't. It is our hope that this site will challenge your perceptions about who is in prison today and why. We also hope that it will generate ideas, big and small, about how we can reduce crime and strengthen our communities without continuing this unprecedented rate of incarceration. Over the next two years, we are continuing to work with educators and students to develop local dialogues in schools and communities. We will be partnering with radio producers and journalists across the country to tell stories about how crime and incarceration affects not just the people who are directly involved, but whole families and communities.

BBC News - Is technology to blame for the London riots?

by karlcow

Batman: The Killing Joke

by alamat & 1 other (via)
“The Killing Joke” is widely considered to be the be-all-end-all of Joker stories, so what better way to pay homage to the greatest comic book villain of all time near the eve of his re-unveiling in The Dark Knight than by reviewing his definitive story? This is the comic that (sort of) revealed the origin of The Clown Prince of Crime, humanizing him to an extent never before, and truly examined -with pictures rather than words- the antagonistic symbiosis that exists between Joker and his arch nemesis, The Batman. A beloved Gotham regular will never be the same and another will be put through hell before this story is done. Oh, and there are creepy little henchmidgets as well. Gotta love the henchmidgets.

Mafia-International.com - Montreal Family

by karlcow

The history of the Montreal crime family centers around two Italian crime groups and the men who have led these groups in the Canadian province of Quebec creating a powerful and influential criminal organization that has dominated the Canadian underworld for roughly 8 decades. The "Great Canadian City of Montreal" has been the base of operations for this powerful Italian criminal organization or "crime family" since it's beginnings, more accurately when it was formed in the 1940's, but Montreal's Italian underworld started in the mid to late 1800's like it's American counterpart and continued to grow in the 1920's with the immigration of two European men who carried different Italian decent.

Prison Valley, ‘Prison-nomics’ in Cañon City, Colorado (web-documentary) « Yannig Roth

by sbrothier
It’s exam period at UWF and I am studying my various courses : Marketing Strategy, Information Sources for Business Decisions, International Business and Current Social Problems. In the course material of the two last ones, I read content that made me want to watch that documentary I had heard about a couple of times now : Prison Valley. While we extensivelly discusses the crime issue in our Current Social Problems-class, the part of our International Business-class about privatization of public services as a way of achieving growth in global service industries (like prison management) pushed me to type http://prisonvalley.arte.tv/ into my browser. Here’s what it’s about… and what I think about it.

Orson Welles on Privacy, the Passport and Personal Rights | The Januarist

by karlcow

This is to certify that the bearer is a member of the human race. All relevant information is to be found in his passport. And except when there is good reason for suspecting him of some crime, he will refuse to submit to police interrogation, on the grounds that any such interrogation is an intolerable nuisance. And life being as short as it is, a waste of time. Any infringement on his privacy, or interference with his liberty, any assault, however petty, against his dignity as a human being, will be rigorously prosecuted by the undersigned …

my secret to happy relationship - alyson

by blackgoldfish
What makes my relationship with DLB, my partner-in-crime and soon-to-be husband, so special is our friendship. Whether we're singing songs together on a road trip, reading books on a blanket in the park or tasting the newest beer at the local brew pub, it's important to be able to have fun together....Or you could win his heart by baking a peach pie. That one always works. -- Alyson, Unruly Things

Antologia Poética de Bertolt Brecht

by tadeufilippini
Aos que virão depois de nós I Eu vivo em tempos sombrios. Uma linguagem sem malícia é sinal de estupidez, uma testa sem rugas é sinal de indiferença. Aquele que ainda ri é porque ainda não recebeu a terrível notícia. Que tempos são esses, quando falar sobre flores é quase um crime. Pois significa silenciar sobre tanta injustiça? Aquele que cruza tranqüilamente a rua já está então inacessível aos amigos que se encontram necessitados? É verdade: eu ainda ganho o bastante para viver. Mas acreditem: é por acaso. Nado do que eu faço Dá-me o direito de comer quando eu tenho fome. Por acaso estou sendo poupado. (Se a minha sorte me deixa estou perdido!) Dizem-me: come e bebe! Fica feliz por teres o que tens! Mas como é que posso comer e beber, se a comida que eu como, eu tiro de quem tem fome? se o copo de água que eu bebo, faz falta a quem tem sede? Mas apesar disso, eu continuo comendo e bebendo. Eu queria ser um sábio. Nos livros antigos está escrito o que é a sabedoria: Manter-se afastado dos problemas do mundo e sem medo passar o tempo que se tem para viver na terra; Seguir seu caminho sem violência, pagar o mal com o bem, não satisfazer os desejos, mas esquecê-los. Sabedoria é isso! Mas eu não consigo agir assim. É verdade, eu vivo em tempos sombrios! II Eu vim para a cidade no tempo da desordem, quando a fome reinava. Eu vim para o convívio dos homens no tempo da revolta e me revoltei ao lado deles. Assim se passou o tempo que me foi dado viver sobre a terra. Eu comi o meu pão no meio das batalhas, deitei-me entre os assassinos para dormir, Fiz amor sem muita atenção e não tive paciência com a natureza. Assim se passou o tempo que me foi dado viver sobre a terra. III Vocês, que vão emergir das ondas em que nós perecemos, pensem, quando falarem das nossas fraquezas, nos tempos sombrios de que vocês tiveram a sorte de escapar. Nós existíamos através da luta de classes, mudando mais seguidamente de países que de sapatos, desesperados! quando só havia injustiça e não havia revolta. Nós sabemos: o ódio contra a baixeza também endurece os rostos! A cólera contra a injustiça faz a voz ficar rouca! Infelizmente, nós, que queríamos preparar o caminho para a amizade, não pudemos ser, nós mesmos, bons amigos. Mas vocês, quando chegar o tempo em que o homem seja amigo do homem, pensem em nós com um pouco de compreensão. ...

Qu'est-ce qu'un crime de guerre ? : Actualités du droit

by srcmax (via)
La réalité qui importe est peut-être plus là : http://gaza-sderot.arte.tv/fr/ que dans les bombes meurtrières d'Israël qui tuent des civils et dans les roquettes meurtrières du Hamas qui tuent des civils, que dans les affrontements et les polémiques que génèrent l'énumération des responsabilités respectives depuis 60 ans, etc. Définir qui a raison et qui a tort apporte rarement une solution bénéfique aux deux parties.

Devinette - Journal d'un avocat

by srcmax (via)

Qu'on me comprenne bien. Le suicide est un drame terrible, mais tout ceux qui décident de partir ne se sentent pas obligés d'emmener quelqu'un avec eux pour le Grand Voyage, surtout si cette personne est mère de deux enfants. Et un meurtre est un meurtre, fût-il perpétré par un député.

Cette minute de silence de la part de la représentation nationale est obscène. Et de la part d'une majorité qui vote des textes répressifs comme d'autres avalent des petits fours, ce geste sonne comme l'hommage de l'hypocrise au crime.
